John Podesta, the former chairman for Hillary Clintons presidential campaign, on Monday said the revelation of President Trump officials' contacts with Russia is beginning to smell like collusion.
You know, its starting to smell more and more like collusion to the public, Podesta told MSNBCs All in with Chris Hayes.
Donald Trump Jr. said that he specifically went to the meeting with the hopes of soliciting negative information about Hillary, Podesta noted, referencing a New York Times report said that Donald Trump Jr. met with a Russian lawyer after being promised harmful information about Clinton.
ADVERTISEMENT Trump Jr. confirmed the meeting, but said the lawyer did not have such opposition research.
Podesta was the victim of an email hack during the presidential campaign, and many of his stolen emails were published by WikiLeaks, which Clinton campaign officials have argued hurt the campaign. That hack is part of multiple investigations into Russian election interference and possible ties between Trump campaign officials and Moscow.

Traditionally, yes. Today, mostly grain. As long as it's filtered to where it's mostly alcohol and water, it's hard to tell the difference.
There should be a special counsel appointed to look into DNC, Clinton, and Clinton Foundation collusion.
Its the smell of the devil.
this evil DNC warlock practices witchcraft .
Remember his witch parties reported earlier this year .
Employed by the Brzo newsletter and making comments like this ?
Pull the Bezo newsletter access to the WH unless he is removed .
Podesta smells more and more like Hillary’s diapers.
I totally agree, Podesta’s relationship with Russia DOES sound like collusion, along with Clintons relationship with the Russians.
Pedosta- colluding with little children.
Also Obama's collusion with Putin. This was before Putin began slapping him around for the little punk that he is. He got what he wanted from the traitorous puke, then tossed him aside.
March 2012...
"Obama was talking with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev when neither of them realized that their conversation was being picked up by microphones. Here is what they said:
Obama: "On all these issues, but particularly missile defense, this, this can be solved, but it's important for him to give me space."
Medvedev: "Yeah, I understand. I understand your message about space. Space for you ..."
Obama: "This is my last election. After my election, I have more flexibility."
Medvedev: "I understand. I will transmit this information to Vladimir."
"This is my last election. After my election I have more flexibility." That statement tells us much about the president's mindset.
The specific mention of missile defense is worrisome enough. Mr. Obama has retreated from the missile defense plan that was negotiated with European allies during the George W. Bush administration.
Apparently, he is signaling Moscow that he intends to retreat further. The clear implication from the president's comments is that he cannot tell the American people before the election what he plans to do after the election.
In addition, there is the phrase "on all these issues," implying more is at stake than just missile defense."
Article: Obama plans double cross on missile defense
When it comes to keeping America safe, we shouldn't be too flexible:

From Investor's Business Daily, Jan 2012:
Appeasement: From ObamaCare to recess appointments, honoring the Constitution has not been an administration hallmark. But when it comes to betraying secrets to mollify the Russians, it becomes a document the president hides behind.
It was bad enough that the 2012 defense authorization bill signed by President Obama set America on a downward spiral of military mediocrity.
He also issued a signing statement, something he once opposed, saying that language in the bill aimed at protecting top-secret technical data on the U.S. Standard Missile-3 - linchpin of our missile defense - might impinge on his constitutional foreign-policy authority.
Section 1227 of the defense law prohibits spending any funds that would be used to give Russian officials access to sensitive missile-defense technology as part of a cooperation agreement without first sending Congress a report identifying the specific secrets, how they'd be used and steps to protect the data from compromise.
The president is required to certify that any technology shared will not be passed on to third parties such as China, North Korea or Iran, that the Russians will not use transferred secrets to develop countermeasures and that the Russians are reciprocating in sharing missile-defense technology. ..."
"In his signing statement, Obama said he would treat these legal restrictions as 'non-binding' and that 'my administration will also interpret and implement section 1244 (sic) in a manner that does not interfere with the president's constitutional authority to conduct foreign affairs and avoids the undue disclosure of sensitive diplomatic communications.'
Betraying our secrets is easy for a president who betrayed allies Poland and the Czech Republic to placate Moscow.
Poland was to host ground-based interceptors such as those we've deployed in California and Alaska, with missile-tracking radar deployed in the Czech Republic.
Obama pulled the plug when Moscow objected. Never mind, he said, we have a better approach: a four-phase plan that calls for using three versions of the Navy's Standard SM-3 interceptor missile that forms the backbone of its Aegis missile-defense system.
The fourth phase consists of a missile still on the drawing board scheduled for deployment by 2020, a version of the SM-3 called the Block IIB. It would intercept hostile missiles in the "early intercept" phase before an enemy missile could release its warheads and decoys. The Russians want the SM-3's secrets, and Obama appears to be willing to turn them over.
The president wants to save the New Start Treaty, which the Russians have threatened to abandon if we try to fully implement President Reagan's dream of defeating a nuclear missile attack.
Russia has unilaterally asserted that any qualitative or quantitative improvement in U.S. missile defenses would be grounds for withdrawal from the treaty.

Podesta molesting truth.
“......its starting to smell more and more like collusion to the public,........
Although Podesta is pushing the idea against the Trumps, the SMELL is coming directly from the demodummies, his power of suggestion is backfiring.
It’s called opposition research.
The RATS do it in spades.
Two words for Podesta Molesta....
Seth Rich!
Natalia V. worked for the bank represented by The Podesta Group.
We know, John!
Nice work
Shut up, Skippy!
WHERE IN THE HELL IS SESSIONS HERE???
Much of this nonsense could be stopped if the Trump justice department started pushing harder back on the illegalities of the Clinton campaign. Sessions has become a total embarrassment and a worthless placeholder.
Getting so tired of this crap...
The “Bug” is in the roll of paper towels.
Until Sessions starts real investigations on the real criminals here, they will continue to spill their garbage. Where are the investigations and indictments on the real criminals?
One can only hope that the Justice Department has become just that. Hopefully, AG Sessions is getting all the many ducks in a row in order to indict all of these sick and sickening criminal slimeballs. Time will tell.
