and they're knee-deep in this shit, too

let's wait until we can put him in jail.

Knowing how the GRU disposes of legal and political problems, it may well be protective custody. Once she’s testified, they might move her to gen-pop, and we’ll see what that does to her life expectancy.

A ruskie/NRA SPY. A Honey pot.

The mostly corporate media (Mrs. Greenspan) spewed bile and DAMNATION of Hillary and her NEVER compromised emails.

But Butina can only muster being called an alleged SPY?

Has, by using her other moniker, Andrea Mitchell, been very successful at hiding her links to the chain of swamp buddies

And it's time for her American co-conspirators and enablers to be held accountable-traitors all!

where did that $30 million dollars the NRA spent on Trump's campaign come from?

got money via her connections?

Butina was very obviously an intelligence officer. But if you find that a stretch, then let's go with witting - very witting - asset.

The truly astounding element of her assignment is that she did not conceal her nationality (Russian), her association with Russian intelligence (overt introductions to Russian intelligence and paid trips to Russia), or, ultimately, her goal (electing Trump).

This was a massive poke in the eye to the NRA and RW Americans generally - no subtlety required, no finesse. Hey, we're Russians, and we're going to fuck with you. Anybody with me? And they all fell into line, panting and slobbering from here to Moscow.

The charge that she's pled guilty to is essentially failing to register as a foreign lobbyist. If this gets her to cooperate and serve time in prison, great. But I think she should have been charged with espionage. Although her targets were the NRA and the Republican party, her key objective was helping to dismantle American democracy. A conviction allows tremendous flexibility in sentencing, including life sentences and death penalty. In contrast, failing to register as a foreign agent carries up to 2 years in jail and a $10,000 fine.

over U.S. politics.

Those words are powerful. Everything we THOUGHT had happened, DID happen.

I'm guessing this involves some Republicans in the Senate and House, too. Definitely the Trump team.

who spent all of 2017 (and even 2018) telling everyone that KremlinGate was a "nothingburger" and "an overhyped myth" and "sour grapes from Hillary" needs to line up and kiss my ass...
