I am somewhat embarrassed to admit that all of this “Trump Tower meeting with The Russians” has become both
confusing and boring. I’m beginning to just tune it out.

Today’s new trade deal with Mexico, or the fact that Black Business Ownership has jumped significantly in the last year, some say as high as 400%, that is the type of news I’d say is worth thinking about.

Let’s hope the average undecided voter is also. I’m having trouble figuring out how this Russia effecting our election probe has turned morphed into this circus. Strippers and all.

This all could backfire big time come election day.

I disagree, and mean no disrespect in this disagreement. I simply see it quite differently.

This is the biggest political scandal in the entire history of this country. This has been an effort to invalidate an election, spying on an opposition party during a Presidential campaign, framing the candidate in conjunction with using the full legal, political and intelligence components of the government to carry it out.

This is unheard of.

There are three parts to it:

Each one of these major aspects alone might be the biggest scandal.

This IS important. If we don't put the screws to this in a way that discourages people in the future from doing this, we are simply going to see more of it. And worse, we are already living in a surveillance state. They simply blew right through the thin veneer of protections to do what they wish with a wealthy, famous Presidential candidate using the full instruments of government power to do so.

If they do that, unimpeded, what chance do we as individual citizens have to be protected by that veneer of protections?

If it goes unexamined and unpunished, it will be open season on us as well.
