Putin just banned same sex marriage in Russia. Definitely on Pompeo’s wish list. In fact, I’d bet right at the top.

and complicit, and undoubtedly includes numerous other "Russian assets".

We are being taken down by a foreign enemy with the aid and abetment of citizens and officers of the State.

If that isn't treason, I don't know what is!

Employed by the U.S.A. that is.

They work for Jesus, for Trump, and for themselves. For wealth and power. That's it. It's sacks of offal like Pompeo, of course, who make Trump think he's got the military supporting him.

This is abnormal behavior by the State Department. I traveled with three Secretaries of State. When they met with Russian foreign ministers, they always told the American people what they were doing — often in great detail https://www.politico.eu/article/state-department-keeps-quiet-as-pompeo-meets-lavrov-in-munich/

Vote for Trump Just like Russia did.

As noted upthread we have a Russian asset/agent in the White House.

What was the U.S. Secretary of State doing in meeting with one of the people who helped to rig
OUR ELECTIONS without telling the American people?

The penalty is firing squad. We as a nation should auction off the opportunity to participate. Me and a lot of Veterans who lost brothers and sisters to "supposedly" protect America from just this exact shit should have the chance to do so. This time we will know exactly why we are shooting, not for oil. Gonna take a lot of ammo. PPV!

is doing it to mock Trump and show off. Putin laughs his ass off daily, watching the machinations he is causing without much effort.

Russia doesn't have a comedy channel, so Putin creates shit in the U.S. then kicks back with some vodka and watches FOX and MSNBC.

my Russian friend says his friends and relatives back in Russia are laughing their asses off at HOW EASILY Putin played Trump and the Republicans. And admiring how Putin is destroying the U.S. without ever even firing a single missile........or getting involved.
