But.. but.. Russian puppet!!
But I thought the Russians were his benefactor - some gratitude! /s/
I’m sure Killery wouldn’t have sanctioned the Russians.
The one where they both miraculously recovered from one of the deadliest nerve agents ever made and are walking around today?
This was confirmed by the same British intel community that says he is a Russian spy.
This was not nerve gas. It was fentanyl, and it was a hit on the Russian associate of a Steele employee. He had to be silenced. This was likely the guy who authored the piss-dossier. He had been in Britain for years.
And some critical thinking skills. In the 1990s, Sergei Skripal was an officer for Russia’s Main Intelligence Directorate (GRU) and worked as a double agent for the UK’s Secret Intelligence Service from 1995 until his arrest in Moscow in December 2004. In August 2006, he was convicted of high treason and sentenced to 13 years in a penal colony by a Russian court. He settled in the UK in 2010 following the Illegals Program spy swap. Sergei holds dual Russian and British citizenship.
1) If Russia wanted him dead, it would have been simple to do so when they had him in prison.
2) if you release people in spy swaps, but then murder them after release, you’ll never get another spy released in the future.
This was a Brit intel/CIA op, silencing the man who added the Russian “flavor” to the Steele dossier. Trump is being played by the very people trying to overthrow him.
Honestly this is one of my only disappointments with Trump. I wanted to see the removal of all sanctions and the recognition of the accession of Crimea.
Not unexpected. Something like that had to happen following the collusion hoax falling apart.
I read Tom Clancy too....
