She was charged as being an unregistered foreign agent.

Oh, you think the NRA was taking money from Russia to push their agenda. We’ve left reality, so I’m out.

Not just 'taking money'.  Millions bud. Tens of Millions. The whole thing has become a shell operation taking large PAC dollars. Get it out of your head the thing is supported by rural Americans in wifebeater tank tops drinking a can of Bud sending in $100 like it's something in the back of a Boy Scouts or Popular Mechanics magazine. The whole things a mirage, a sales presentation to its outward appearance. Internally, they've been taking Russian & other foreign money to push international agenda's.


Do a simple Google search of "Mueller investigates NRA". There's articles going back to January/February over it.

Absolutely horrible.  But Obama murdered a US citizen and not a peep from the left.

  I'm not comparing the two, just continuing to build my case that all of the sudden concern about Russia and due process is a little suspect.

I’m confused...i thought al-Qaeda was bad.


Obama personally ordered the assasination of American citizens abroad without a trial or conviction. You had no idea this happened because the media had a constant orgasm for the man and you don’t care.

Your neighbors are rioting in the streets as we speak because some idiot tried to run away from cops and pull his gun on them. But nada when the president orders a hit on a US citizen who at that moment, was not an active combatant or attempting to harm the US.

No idea unless you weren't paying attention.

Also, Trump ordered an attack that killed an 8-year-old American girl, but nada from the right? https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/ … -al-awlaki

By the way, there are no riots in the streets "as we speak" in Chicago over that shooting. One confrontation Sunday, yes.

Yea, collateral damage is totally the same as a direct hit.

My comments were directed at Mitch, who called it a “conspiracy theory” because he had no clue. I linked a BBC article, so obviously it was reported. Anwar was a complete piece of shit and high ranking member in Al Qaeda. But there’s far more outrage at a word Trump used rather than an actual action. There’s been more outrage that a guy who attempted to sraw down on cops got wasted than that Obama ordered a citizen killed. That’s my point.

Where was Anderson Cooper calling Obama an embarrassment when a hot mic caught him telling Russia he’d have more “flexibility” after the election. This was after Georgia. His flexibility resulted in Crimea being annexed and the “attack” on our electoral systems.

The outrage is entirely partisan. None of you howling now gave a fuck when Obama mocked the GOP for calling Russia our number one adversary. Not one.

The NRA is wildly overrated by Democrats. I've never understood making them a boogieman. They're not even huge donors. They're not even in the top ten of Republican donors. They don't have the influence you think they do.

And JFK was fucking Soviet and german spies. And I have to admit, I'd probably get caught with a red sparrow.

Her answers are not just evasive word salads but completely incoherent. She's Tweedle Dum to Trump's Tweddle Dee.  She literally said, "Let me go back and talk to other activists before I answer."

Just to clarify, i did know about the incident...i thought you were actually referring to something else.

While the details are a bit hazy, i don’t recall being faxed much. When you’re a US citizen planning terrorist attacks with al-Qaeda - the legality of the situation gets hazy, wouldn’t you agree?

Fair point I suppose. I still say they've been accepting russian money for years, and recently 10X'd it once Trump began running, but I see your point.

Randall what's the Jennifer Lawrence reference? Did she play a Russian in a movie?
