Every vote for Trump was a vote for Putin to. Never expected it, but Trump really deserves credits for ending the Cold War! ;-)

They will all go to jail after shaking Putin's hand and then not go to jail.
wheresurgurl
It's about damn time they start going after the Russians operatives too, not just American politicians
DerpNerpem
So...should have a redo
TheMightyMoto
Nah, it might just lead to President Pence though.

Resurrect Hillary Clinton *drums start beating*

Probably shouldn't base your political decisions on what you read on facebook.

I've lived in America my entire life and i can confirm thus is what 70% of the population does
TheDevilHerself
Shouldn't but let's not kid ourselves. It's widely known that people have and continue to.
GetInLosersWereGonnaDoScience
Sadly, most of my family did just this.

Fox News was peddling stories tha people on Mueller's team donated to Democratic candidates at some point. Theyre really trying to discredit
TheMightyMoto
Even Trump has donated to Democrats though.

Wait, 'troll farm'? What other mystic creatures are they forming? :D

It's a good job the USA hasn't meddled in other Countries Elections..Right?
oseo
Meddled? The US wrote the book on it.
TheDevilHerself
Your whataboutism is played out. Go play with the rest of the kids wearing helmets elsewhere!
banjak
Whataboutism? It's well known and documented, but deny it all you want. Have some pigeonscominghometoroostism.
CaptCounterCulture
You know this indictment actually helps Trump right?
oseo
Oh I'd love for you to try and explain that.
CaptCounterCulture
The indictments say that the Russians had fake IDs, and that they "communicated to unwitting individuals associated with the Trump campaign"
CaptCounterCulture
Along with them having a hand in anti Trump rallies after the election, including one "Trump is NOT my president" in November. >
CaptCounterCulture
It's not collusion if they don't know they're working with criminals, which the FBI pretty much said for these indictments.
aptatlas
Clinton campaign telling MSM what stories to run vs Russians buying ads...hmmmm.
aptatlas
Oh god they finally found the evil Russians. What did they do?! Oh my god they bought ads!! Those crafty bastards.
TheGhostofElizabethShue
$1.25m a month budget, posed as Americans, arranged protests, etc etc etc
CaptCounterCulture
Also the protests they arranged were on both sides. Some of them were post-election, including one in November "Trump is NOT my president"
TheGhostofElizabethShue
Well they would know.
AshmoreXII
We have been doing this for at least a 100 years to EVERY country in the world. It was bound to happen to us.
TheGhostofElizabethShue
So what? Let it go?
AddictiveTendancies
Moot point.
TheDevilHerself
Now the idiots will have to ask themselves if they're comfortable doing the bidding for Russia, right!?
CaptCounterCulture
These indictments prove that they're playing both sides of the field. And no one knew till now.
TheDevilHerself
These indictments clearly say the Russians wanted Trump to win the presidency. And people have been shouting about this since 2016
CaptCounterCulture
It also says the organized anti Trump marches after the election, including "Trump is NOT my president" that they worked with groups that>
CaptCounterCulture
Supported Bernie Sanders and Jill Stein. It was more that they didn't want Hillary to win.
TheDevilHerself
Yes, both sides. It also makes sense why there's an obvious villianization that took place q Hillary. Don't misunderstand me, she sucks but
HeyOP
1) Needs more details, like who these people and entities are, and whether or not they'll be tried in absentia or if they're in the States,
HeyOP
2) but it'd be nice to see a trial with evidence being made publicly available.
oseo
I wouldn't count on it until the full completion of this investigation.
HeyOP
Right to a speedy trial doesn't just extend to citizens. If they're not ready to take it to trial, an indictment shouldn't have been made.
oseo
Doesn't mean the evidence has to be public. I said nothing about not having a speedy trial.
HeyOP
1) You understand why public trials, publicly available evidence and naming the accused is necessary for a democracy, right? Some
TheDevilHerself
That time will come I'm sure
HeyOP
1) Maybe. I'd remain cautious with your hope, were I you. The relatively quiet tone of this article in contrast to the bombastic nature
HeyOP
2) of others on the topic is cause for an eyebrow raise. They're actually indicting someone, it should be bigger news. But hopefully the
HeyOP
3) story will develop further, and not perpetually below the fold as the saying goes.
CaptCounterCulture
Some of the groups pointed out was "Army of Jesus" "Secured Boarders" and "Blacktivist". It also reveals they had some hand in pro Trump>
CaptCounterCulture
Groups in Florida and they're rallies, unknown by the groups leaders. They also had their hands in coordinating election protests >
CaptCounterCulture
Including " Trump is NOT my president". They're literally trying to split America in half.
HeyOP
As ever.

Muller investigation is about finding Russian collusion with Trump. So far still nada. Now they caught Russian ID thieves buying ads.
Scaramucci
No, it's not. Mueller's investigation has a much wider scope than just collusion between Trump and Russia. Good job proving your ignorance.
aptatlas
Yes it’s wider, because he made it wider.
Scaramucci
No, that's what he was tasked to do. At least when you're proven wrong do some research before you look like an even bigger fool.
Scaramucci
aptatlas
What’s the title of the document? Now why are they prosecuting for things before and after the election?

aptatlas
Ten to one doesn’t even have anything to do with the election and/or collusion.
AddictiveTendancies
I'm starting to see the same people who used to tote releasethememo and no Russians tampered bs, start saying we should come together...
oseo
I'm starting to see the proverbial white flags as well.
CaptCounterCulture
Well we should come together. Russia's main goal is divide America. The indictments prove they're working both sides.
AddictiveTendancies
We should come together. Tell that to the obstructionist members of the house Intel committee who've blocked 19 subpoenas...
CaptCounterCulture
Sorry don't know what your talking about.

The GOP majority has been stonewalling any real investigating by its own committee. You can thank Nunes for that!
CaptCounterCulture
And by the way, these indictments help Trump.
AddictiveTendancies
How's that?

The indictments say that the Russians had fake IDs, and that they "communicated to unwitting individuals associated with the Trump campaign"
