They’ll probably use this against him anyway.

Compare that to the warning the Russians gave the US about the Tsarnaev brothers who carried out the Boston Marathon bombing.

Our president at that time believed that "the United States can absorb another terror attack." He said that in 2010, the Boston attack happened in 2013.

He said that knowing very well that the flesh and blood, the limbs, the head, the faces that would "absorb" the energy of that attack would not belong to himself, or to members of his family. He knew that it would most likely be white people who would be the absorbers, the fodder, the shrapnel-stoppers.

Putin warned us more than once...about the Boston bombers....Obama told Putin to MYOB.

And if I remember correctly, it was about the same time as the Russian Adoption Matter was going on and Obama told Putin to go to hell on that matter also.

So when the Russians advised the Obama administration and the FBI about the Boston bombers proclivity for terrorism that they did nothing about,was Obama was colluding with Russia?
Odd how Obama’s pap about a “reset” with Russia now is considered “collusion” when it comes to Trump in the MSM handbook

A very good point. Comparing the political cultures between the USA and Russia is very unwise.

It should also be said, that despite the unusual norms of his country, Putin has killed far less people than the Bush’s or Clinton’s.

“who oppose globalism and love Christ.”

Putin loves Christ? After his KGB stint did he take a trip on the road to Damascus? I mean, if he’s truly a Christian that would be a wonderful thing!

That's just fine, Russian authorities have passed anti terrorist intelligence to the US several times. Sometimes US authorities acted on it to prevent attacks and sometimes they failed to act.

Security conscious Nation States cooperating to preempt Terrorist attacks is a good thing, and good manners doesn't hurt.

“Stop viewing Putin through Cold War lenses, view him through historical Russian lenses.

I am not. I am viewing him through Christian lenses. His actions as a murderer fall short.

They listened but the former Obama government didn’t care about the Boston bombers. They’re only motive is to flood the country with foreign nations.

Just like the Obama government imported terrorist into our towns and cities, like San Bernardino, CA which resulted in dozens dead at a company Christmas party.

The FBI had actually interviewed Tzamaroff (sp) early on and then took him off their radar....which tells me the FBI was doing a sh** a** job.

It's all about Obama and his love for Muzzies. Remember also Hasan.

I'm betting that's why Obama went to Boston....to try to keep the Russian tips off the radar. I believe at first, Obama totally denied the tips.

It was the FBI the FSB communicated that information on the Tsarnovs.

I think at the time we had the policy (maybe still do!) in place that all Chechens were poor oppressed refugees fleeing Russian oppression.

We have always had a tendency to turn off our brains when someone screams “oppressed refugee”. I think the roots of that go back to a Ted Kennedy sponsored immigration law.

“What a steaming POS Terry Moron is.”

True. Ever look at his Twitter page? I did some months ago. I was stunned by how pointed he was in his bias against Trump. How can he claim (does he claim) to be objective??? He also was a complete jerk in his election night coverage.

If we unite and commit to a common, Pro-Christian endeavour, we have an opportunity to defeat Marxism forever

You'll be shocked to learn how many 'conservatives' oppose this idea.
