LOCK HER UP! Jill Stein Investigated for Cullusion with Russia

<snip>WASHINGTON — The Senate Intelligence Committee is looking at the presidential campaign of the Green Party’s Jill Stein for potential collusion with Russians, a sign that the panel’s probe is far from over, even as allegations swirl that the House panel’s investigation is racing to a close.<snip>

<snip>Stein, a Lexington physician, was present at a 2015 dinner in Moscow that was also attended by Trump’s former national security adviser, Michael Flynn, whose contacts with Russian officials have been a chief focus of investigations. Flynn and Stein sat with Russian President Vladimir Putin.<snip>

Until Trump answers for his collusion with Russia, that's all the Jill Stein "investigation" is to me. A great big distracting squirrel to take the heat off Trump.

The Russians targeted Sanders' primary voters through social media and directed them to use that anger by voting for Jill Stein.

I still don't know why a Green Party activist would be at an RT event in Moscow, seated with Flynn and Putin.

In the end, she will either be indicted or be an unindicted co-conspirator.

Jill is no distraction, she's part of the conspiracy.

She's not president with the power to destroy the country. Trump is.

But he was part of the conspiracy and so was that weasel Jill Stein.

She has info and she played a part in Trump's win, no question in my mind.
