What is Russia banging a drum about? Advising to not placate NK? I know how they (selfishly) feel about sanctions. Do they want to incite a war? That seems like a really bad endgame for everyone.

They were somewhat helpful in the past w NK. Our country is the one not being helpful right now.

Wasn't sure where to put this but settled on here. Long form rambling by spencer hall from edsbs. If you're looking for any cogent high level argument or prescription then skip it. Just sharing bc he writes pretty when he goes srs:

Anything which increases Russian hegemony in Europe or Asia and simultaneously pisses off the Americanskis is gold for Putin.

Putin playing it perfectly. NK nuclear capabilities most likely propped up by Russian technology(which was shipped over via Ukraine[which keeps Putin clean]) but sits in the corner of the room yelling that it isn't fair and we should treat them better and our escalation is bad(even though its incited by Russian interference).

WASHINGTON — Donald Trump Jr. told Senate investigators on Thursday that he set up a June 2016 meeting with a Russian lawyer because he was intrigued that she might have damaging information about Hillary Clinton, saying it was important to learn about Mrs. Clinton’s “fitness” to be president.

“To the extent they had information concerning the fitness, character or qualifications of a presidential candidate, I believed that I should at least hear them out,” he said. “Depending on what, if any, information they had, I could then consult with counsel to make an informed decision as to whether to give it further consideration.”

i think he genuinely believes the pizzagate/parkinsons stuff

Yeah, really good. This quote sums up my decades living in Texas very well, though I assume Hall is talking about the true deep south as opposed to places like Austin & Dallas...

Kuait bought stuff, and Trump is prod to report delivery happened under his presidency. Things like Boeing 777s likely ordered years ago without any political effort (not discounting the strategic political value).

Trump asked about NK and he goes with his plans are not public, pauses, and reaches back to slap previous administrations for talking about thier plans. He's the worst.

Russia is owning the shit out of us online and will continue to do so: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/09/07/us/p ... ml?mcubz=3

Is anyone even actively investigating the state election hacking?

Mueller is going deep on this shit. Wants to talk to the staffers who were present when the initial Trump Tower meeting statement was drafted.
