A federal grand jury in the District of Columbia on Friday indicted 13 Russian nationals and three Russian entities accused of interfering in U.S. elections.

The announcement came from the office of Special Counsel Robert Mueller.

According to the special counsel, the indictment charges the defendants with conspiracy to defraud the United States, three defendants with conspiracy to commit wire fraud and bank fraud and five defendants with aggravated identity theft.

Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein is scheduled to hold a press conference Friday afternoon.

Sessions will be shown the door as soon as Molehead and Rosenweasel conclude this charade. And rightfully so. So Jeffy better have his resume updated! :-)

I’d like a poll of seniors who have had enough of the coup or whatever you want to call the current state of affairs in this country.

I am hearing a tolerance of a sort, from the younger folks, and I’m assuming words have taken on a different meaning than they used to, and thus we can’t do this and we can’t do that.

For example. The media. They used to be the “free press” and were given allowances called “free to report”. Today they are no more reporters than I am a camel. Today they are no more reporting on the news than your dog is. Today they are a mouth piece for the left and the power they have is astounding.. and dangerous.

Now, another example I want to address is freedom. You are gonna say things to this that I disagree with. From this point.. from this day... for our country... we have to do something more than what is being done. I’m believing sessions is part of the other side and that scares me.

The media has over stepped their rights and have forfeited them all together. It’s time to bring charges against the whole lot of them.. naming them one by one... as being subversive and trying to overthrow the President of the United States. I’m tired of hearing their insults ... we didn’t ever used to talk about a President like they do.. NEVER! It’s not freedom of speech to do what they do... it’s an attempt to overthrow and embarrass our President to the whole worldl.

If this sounds like a take over by the government... it’s to prevent the take over of the government by these treasonous attempts via the media, the fbi, and all the departments of the government.

At this point we don’t know who to trust and it’s NEVER been like this before. You younger men and women can tolerate this and talk it to death... this senior is seeing something that has to be stopped in whatever manner it takes.. It has to be reined in ... put the scare in them.. .for they think they are the power and can do this to our President.

Their actions and their power plays are treasonous and the President should take it as it is... a coup and they are not stopping. What they are doing is dangerous and a threat to our country... you know obama is waiting in the wings to be able to do what he wants to do... be the global power of the world... if you think this is a joke... get some sense from all this before it’s too late and THEN you know it was no joke.

So Red Weaselstain indicts Russians posing as community activists sewing social chaos like a Kenyan operating out of Chi-Town.

The state ops guys working in the media ranks in psy-ops are really desperate.

That's my take on all this, it reeks of desperation to get anything out there they might be able to use against President Trump. It's going to fail like all the other attempts though. Q was correct on one thing that these people are really stupid.

FWIW, I checked out Drudge, even though I rarely go there anymore. The main headline doesn't say anything about no collusion between Trump and the Russians which is what it should read. Drudge has been so disappointing these days.

Susan Rice’s email: Obama thought Trump was a Russian spy
Flopping Aces ^ | 02-14-18 | DrJohn
FR Posted on 2/14/2018 by Starman417

Susan Rice wrote an email and sent it to herself in the minutes during which Donald Trump was inaugurated.

The Senate Judiciary Committee is giving former Obama National Security Adviser Susan Rice until February 22 to answer questions relating to an email she sent to herself prior to exiting from the Obama administration. It occurred during President Trump’s inauguration.

The email contains classified information, so it’s a partial disclosure from the Judiciary Committee, but it seems to show that on January 5, 2017, then-President Obama, Vice President Biden, then-FBI Director James Comey, and then-Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates had a meeting in the Oval Office about the fallout from the Russian interference in the 2016 election.

Here’s that letter. It concerned a meeting in which she participated on January 5, 2017. It’s very odd.

That Rice would write and send herself a letter at the exact time Trump was being inaugurated is strange by itself. But there are a couple of things that really jump out. One, obama was concerned that the incoming duly elected President was a Russian spy from whom intelligence should be kept:

Former President Barack Obama suggested in January 2017 that information related to a federal probe of Russian election interference might have to be withheld from aides to then-President-elect Donald Trump, according to an internal White House email released Monday by two senior GOP senators.

The warning Obama delivered on Jan. 5, 2017, came during an Oval Office conversation shortly after senior intelligence officials briefed him on Russian cyber-meddling in the 2016 election. It was documented in an email then-national security adviser Susan Rice sent to herself on Jan. 20, the day of Trump’s inauguration.

The meeting occurred on January 5 was heretofore was not known to the public. The attendees included “Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, Rice deputy Attorney General Sally Yates, and (James) Comey.”

The very next day Comey met with Trump allegedly to give him a “heads-up” on the dossier which was going to be published in the near future.

Comey being at the meeting is a new revelation. His testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee never mentioned it:

Idiotic, Trump thought nothing of the sort. Sessions was the LEAST rino there is. The anti-Sessions lynch mob is getting dumber and dumber.

Trump is in no “box”

Good thing no Latino or muslim foreign national groups weren’t involved with our elections. /sarcasm

If Mueller and his scumbags wanted to find foreign nationals trying to influence our elections they would target Latino groups along with the muslim brotherhood, CAIR, and other muzzie groups.

Maybe they should look into the Clinton Foundation and the Pedosta Group too?

When are they going to indict George Soros and all his astroturf activist groups for promulgating lies and trying to interfere in American elections and the legislation process?

Hmmmm, this got me to thinking outside the box here. Maybe Team Trump is waiting for Rosenweasel to set the bar here? That would be awesome, now we could go after bad actors like Soros, etc. and we'd have Rosenweasel and all to thank for that, LOL. These people really are stupid.

“Mueller will turn the screws on these guys and the dragnet expands.”

I was thinking that if Mueller had 0.5 oz. of decency in him, this would be a perfect time for him to wrap up his investigation and end the attack on Trump. But ... no decency.

Sorry, but this is not funny. If Russia really interfered with our elections, it would be an act of war in my mind.
That means these lawyers are willing to start a war to cover for the Democrats.

Who in their right mind would think for a second that the Russians would want DJT as president instead of HRC? It never made sense on a fundamental level. And now they are throwing Bernie Sanders in there? What a pathetic mess these clowns have made.

Will Rosey-the-Rodent look into Obama's misuse of our money when he interfered, colluded, influenced Bibi Netanyahu's election?

Am I missing something? Listening to this statement; so far I haven’t heard anything illegal.

I was having the same thought. Trolling social media is a federal felony?
