deep state/shadow govt CYA time! nothing there from the start...

[kvanbrunt2]

the CIA can leave footprints that make it appear to be some other foreign country. this is in the wikileaks dump. so the CIA was pinging the trump server to make it look like the ruskies were doing it so they could create a plausible reason to surveil trumps servers.

[tinyowl]

If they are talking about DNS lookups ... I could pay some dupe in an Russian bank or any American under cover in Russia 2 rubles to cause this and he wouldn't even need to hide his behavior. Open up a browser, repeatedly refresh a page pointing at a url that tries to resolve to that server's ip.

I think they've already said this server used to be used for some marketing, so it very well may still have had DNS pointing at it.

[frnewsjunkie]

I am SO tired of this!!! I wish Trump would put a nail in that coffin... and I wish those who are not against Trump, would tell every one who they have on their shows, to stuff it.. shut up until they have proof ... and to deal with their side.. with their trash.. with their lies.. before they keep this lie alive by repeating it and repeating it.

[txrefugee]

The NSA prolly did it.

[dragnet2]

The left has been squawking about Russia’s alleged election involvement for 5 months Has anyone seen one scrap of evidence Trump is criminally colluding with the Russians or is a Russian spy?

[CivilWarBrewing]

Based on recent Wikileaks disclosures that show the CIA planted Russian 'fingerprints' (malware) in an attempt to FRAME Russia for hacking, I would not be surprised if Brennan's CIA also set out to FRAME Trump by establishing Russian links to his server.

How is the above theory NOT plausible?

[Veto!]

So what? Trump organization is an international organization, they might have quite legitimately connected with Russian, Chinese, LaLaLand banks.

I repeat, so what?

Next?

[romanesq]

Director Spicer says the Russia Fake News is regurgitating crap.

So what does CNN do? “the FBI’s investigation remains open, the sources said...”

Unreal. These people are completely morally bankrupt and out of bullets.

[hoosiermama]

With Trump organization or Trump Tower?
There is a Chinese Bank in Trump Tower. What are the chances that all these hits are regular banking being done between the two?

[ifinnegan]

Sounds like nothing. If anything phish were sniffing around the Trump organization machine.

And who was runng the Russian box doing the sniffing? Was it commandeered by a bot, as is very common.

The journalists in the media are a quite unintelligent lot and are unnable to understand enough to write informatively on a topic like this. It becones meaningless gibberish

e.g. a computer looked up another computer’s information.

What? This is nonsense when what is meant could actually be written but the news people are too stupid to understand basic terms most of the populace now know.

Their stupidity also makes them easy to hoodwink with idiocy such as this.

[Tucker39]

It’s my understanding that the computer or server in Trump Tower that’s connected to a Russian bank has nothing to do with Trump. One of Trump’s tenants in the Tower is a Chinese bank. THEY have a link with the Russian bank, naturally. And Obunga and the ‘Rats KNOW this, but they used it as a lying ruse for getting the FISA warrant, anyhow.

[laxcoach]

“computer server owned by Russia-based Alfa Bank repeatedly looked up the contact information for a computer server being used by the Trump Organization “

So a Russian server does dns requests to trump, and trump is the bad guy?

Omg I can’t believe the world we live in at the moment.

Can I go a Russian state and do constant requests to the DNC to implicate them? Shake my head

[dgbrown]

So a Russian server searched for Trump’s server (maybe to hack?) more often than others severs. Funny they didn’t see this pattern with the DNC or Hillary servers. Oh right, the intruders had the passwords so they only searched once.

[Rockingham]

Supposedly, the most likely innocent explanation is that the Trump server was used for mass marketing emails and the Russian bank server was pinging back in response.

[HarleyLady27]

Sure does get tired, day after day after day...the idiots don’t have a leg to stand on and they think they are important, which they are not...we don’t read their lies, we don’t hear their lies...

As far as the libs, well their just plain stupid, and you can’t fix stupid no matter how hard you try: Waters, Pelosi, Cummings, Warren, Schumer, Di-Fi, McCain, Graham...

We, the Trump Supporters are telling everyone what lies they are spreading and when people hear what we say about all this, then they think to themselves, I don’t want to be a part of that, and they disconnect their cable, stop their newspapers (if any left) and half of the people on here only read the headlines and move on...so where are they getting, deeper in the hole they are digging, pretty soon they will have dug their hole to China...

[Gene Eric]

Show Omaba’s grades!

[Oldeconomybuyer]

Fake news propaganda.

[kevao]

Federal investigators and computer scientists continue to examine whether there was a computer server connection between the Trump Organization and a Russian bank, sources close to the investigation tell CNN.

This would require a warrant. Is CNN now confirming that there is a warrant?

[Ray76]

> ‘Odd’ Computer Link Between Russian Bank/Trump Organization

> No one has produced evidence that the servers actually communicated.

Well which is it? Are you still getting your “news” from Buzzfeed and 4chan?
