When Alexander Bortnikov, the head of Russia’s internal security service, told me during an early August 2016 phone call that Russia wasn’t interfering in our presidential election, I knew he was lying. Over the previous several years I had grown weary of Mr. Bortnikov’s denials of Russia’s perfidy — about its mistreatment of American diplomats and citizens in Moscow, its repeated failure to adhere to cease-fire agreements in Syria and its paramilitary intervention in eastern Ukraine, to name just a few issues.
When I warned Mr. Bortnikov that Russian interference in our election was intolerable and would roil United States-Russia relations for many years, he denied Russian involvement in any election, in America or elsewhere, with a feigned sincerity that I had heard many times before. President Vladimir Putin of Russia reiterated those denials numerous times over the past two years, often to Donald Trump’s seeming approval.
Russian denials are, in a word, hogwash.

Um... is that your sister?
I had to ask...
Apparently the only thing stopping Brennan from justice and jail time is a scorched earth media campaign.
A Hog like Brennan would know an awful lot about Hogwashing.

...and if Russia’s internal security service was thought responsible, then shouldn’t it have been Comey rather than Brennan to do the face off with the Russian official in charge?
In before Laz . . .
Larry, what’s your take on
A) Scowly McScowlFace (Brennan), and
B) All the former CIA heads who denounced Trump for dropping Brennan’s clearance?
“How stupid does a person have to be to imagine that Putin and Russia would have preferred President Trump to Felonia von Pantsuit?”
I guess as stupid as you are. You failed to know all the facts yet you came to that stupid conclusion.
Hitlery was advocating nuclear war with Russia. The Democraps and McInsane were all advocating war with Russia. They still are.
Only Trump was asking for world peace and working with Russia to figure out the middle east. Trump is a friend to Russia on the world stage.
The CIA and the FBI should be decommissioned. Neither are constitutional and both created only in recent history. Both have committed acts of insurrection, treason, and sedition.
“Hitlery was advocating nuclear war with Russia.”
Road apples. I’d believe almost anything of that murdering swine, but to say she was advocating nuclear war with Russia is past stupid and all the way to insane.
“The Democraps and McInsane were all advocating war with Russia. They still are.”
Idiot.
“say she was advocating nuclear war with Russia is past stupid”
So, you don’t pay attention. That’s your problem. I don’t expect liberals to recognize reality and facts. Hillary could say the moon was made of cheese and you brainwashed airheads would repeat it as fact.
The fact remains Hillary had illegal campaign contributions from Russia and advocated war with Russia to hide that fact.
LOL................ “in”
Men, if you will look closely, you can see that is at a beach/lake location. Some women looking at the photograph may notice there is a women in the foreground after a while.
All losers who said WMDs in Iraq a “slam dunk.”
