Is There Any Drumpf Appointee Who Doesn't Have Putin's Dick Up His Ass?

If Flynn and Sessions didn't see anything wrong with talking to Russians during the campaign, why did they both lie about it?

It's not entirely clear that they did. In context their statements are ambiguous at most. The accusations from the Democrats sound a lot like "Are you, or have you ever been, a member of the Communist Party?"

Oddly enough, I heard that same talking-point on the radio this morning ... mouthed by the Russian ambassador.

That's a crazy notion. There's no attacking North Korea without risking all-out war with China, no?

The White House is reportedly considering military action to counter the nuclear threat. It is a crazy idea that could start a war with China but at the same time listen to Trump's anti-China rhetoric. Not meaning to sound like a conspiracy theorist here, but it is almost as if he wants war with both.

You could also argue that war with Iran could spark a conflict with others too, no?

Well he does need a distraction from his gross incompetence. All out nuclear war looks sufficient to take your mind off Russia.

Whatever happens, it certainly won't end well. That's for sure.

Media reports in the last few weeks have suggested the FBI had sought a warrant from the foreign intelligence surveillance court (Fisa) last summer in order to monitor members of the Trump team suspected of irregular contacts with Russian officials.

The warrant was first turned down but then approved in October, according to the media reports.
There has been no official confirmation and it is also not clear if this evolved into a full investigation.

But trumps take on this.

"Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my "wires tapped" in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!"

So in Trumps mind he should be immune from investigation for illegal activities.
