That liberal rag Wall Street Journal with an interesting story:

https://www.wsj.com/articles/donald-trump-jr-was-likely-paid-at-least-50-000-for-event-held-by-hosts-allied-with-russia-on-syria-1488473640

WASHINGTON—President Donald Trump’s eldest son was likely paid at least $50,000 for an appearance late last year before a French think tank whose founder and wife are allies of the Russian government in efforts to end the war in Syria.

Donald Trump Jr. addressed a dinner on Oct. 11 at the Ritz Hotel in Paris, hosted by the Center of Political and Foreign Affairs. Its president, Fabien Baussart, and his Syrian-born wife, Randa Kassis, have cooperated with Russia in its drive to end the Syrian civil war, according to U.S., European and Arab officials. In December, Mr. Baussart formally nominated Russian President Vladimir Putin for the Nobel Peace Prize.

Mrs. Kassis is a leader of a political faction endorsed by Russia in negotiations to end the war in Syria. The couple said they don’t represent Russia and are solely focused on ending the Syrian conflict.

"If, for example, you were on the phone with the Russian ambassador and somehow your phone call got recorded, would you want them turning over that phone call and that transcript to the committee?," Nunes asked.

The reporter followed up with a question about whether a private person was different than a public figure, and Nunes carefully turned that on Flynn, rather than Sessions, delicately placing the "private citizen" hat on Flynn.

Then, a warning.

"Look, I'm sure some of you are in contact with the Russian embassy, so be careful what you ask for," he warned. "We start getting transcripts of any of you or any other Americans talking to the press, then we can -- do you want us to conduct an investigation on you or other Americans because you were talking to the Russian embassy?"

What a tool.

He had complete confidence in Flynn the day before he asked for his resignation.

partial troll job, he is lying about his lie

Attorney General Jeff Sessions will recuse himself from Justice Department investigations into Russian influence in the 2016 presidential election, as well as any inquiries into ties between the Donald Trump campaign and Russian officials.

So they're playing the Senate hat/Surrogate hat card. Imagine if a AG had an open investigation into a high profile politician who had a conversation with the politician's husband, would anyone be fine with the friend hat/AG hat?

Sessions: "Most of these ambassadors are pretty gossipy."


"In retrospect, I should have slowed down and said I'd met the Russian ambassador."
