0 URGENT - Russian authorities order closure of Anglo-American School in Moscow
CNNN via Kttv4 ^ | December 29, 2016 | Staff

(CNN) -- Russian authorities have ordered the Anglo-American School of Moscow to close, as part of retaliation for US sanctions imposed Thursday, a US official briefed on the matter said. The order from the Russian government closes the school, which serves children of US, British and Canadian embassy personnel, to US and foreign nationals. The order also closes access to the US embassy vacation house in Serebryany Bor, near Moscow. Earlier Thursday, the Obama administration, condemning Russia's alleged interference in the election, sanctioned four Russian individuals and five Russian entities. The administration also ordered 35 Russian diplomats to leave the country and two Russian compounds are being closed.

Zero urgency describes it very well.

While they are at it, they could close out that California mock embassy and send those people packing. We would all enjoy that

I expect, unless odumbo starts lobbing rockets, all this will fizzle right after Trump takes command. The bastard in the WH right now is doing almost everything in his power to start a war so he can stay in office. Arrest that bastard and NOW, ASAP!

Yeah, Putin will probably make providing cakes for homosexual weddings optional for Russian bakers and 0 will have no choice but to send in the B-1s.

The Russians have more to gain by encouraging the California/Aztlan secession movement because even if it fails spectacularly it will still cause problems for the USA.

There’s no downside for the Russians in fostering strife in the USA.

Ah but do the Russians really want another country that is filled with Obamas?

This is the first time that I have seen the word “alleged” in reference to Russia’s hacking. It should be used every time. Hillary’s campaign manager Mook started this whole accusation of the Russians on a Sunday interview show when he said one of the “some say” type accusations. Dems lie and are defended by the MSM.

Look, to be serious here for a minute, do I think Russia is our best buddy? No. Do I think it would be in our best interest to get along? Yes

There are a lot of problems in this world that can better be solved if we work on them together. As RR said, trust but verify

We have known for years Russia (USSR) spies on us, but FGS so do all our friends. It’s OUR responsibility to make sure they don’t get anything really important. That’s how the world works and I don’t believe Americans are so naive that they are not aware of it. .............Well, except for the snowflakes

At the very least.

Yes, I worry that Obama will escalate in his continued efforts to completely poison the well for Trump. He could easily stage a military incident with the Russians or the Chinese, for that matter. Have a couple of ships engage in the type of bumping incidents that used to happen with the USSR, or have a close encounter or force down between Russian and US fighter jets, for instance.

Wish Putin hadn’t stooped to Zero’s level. Tit for tat is childish. But then he may not have been involved. Let the kids have a few extra days of holiday. Call it bad weather days and be done with it. Give them a project to turn in on Jan. 21.

Yep, that is the reality. Sorry Kiddos, school is out until big bad President Trump tells you that you have to get back into class.

I don’t know how to copy Twitter on to here, but President Trump just tweeted:

“It’s time for our Country to move to bigger and better things. Nevertheless, in the interest of our country and its Great People, I will meet with people of the Intelligent Community next week in order to be updated on the facts of this situation”.


None of this has happened as of 7:19PM 12/29/16. What gives with your posting this?
