Washington (CNN)The June 2016 meeting at Trump Tower with Donald Trump Jr., Jared Kushner and Paul Manafort included at least eight people. Person #8 to be ID'ed shortly. https://twitter.com/adamgoldmanNYT/status/885941730108997636 But Jr. told Hannity the other day that there was nothing else to this!

Remember when this was a discussion about adoption between two people Seriously. It's completely insane how they have lied about sooooo f***ing much WITH JUST THIS ONE MEETING. Let alone their previous 6 months. Then add in the year or so of pre-president Donnie. And his cultists have the nerve to talk about Hillary's lies. LOL

The translator already issued a non-denial and cited client privilege.

Something happened at this meeting. The AP reported: “During the meeting, Akhmetshin said Veselnitskaya brought with her a plastic folder with printed-out documents that detailed what she believed was the flow of illicit funds to the Democratic National Committee (DNC). Veselnitskaya presented the contents of the documents to the Trump associates and suggested that making the information public could help the Trump campaign, he said.

He was on his way to somewhere else.

He was certainly free to hand himself in to US authorities. Not having a passport isn't preventing that. He also didn't need to fly through Russia to go somewhere else.

No they weren't. Telecommunication companies provided the metadata and they needed a judge to sign off if they wanted to obtain the name of a suspected US citizen, and at that point NSA is most likely passing them off to FBI who has the mandate to investigate US citizens.
There are also strong internal controls in place to minimize and account for when US citizens are inadvertently looked at. NSA takes that s*** seriously.If you build a man a fire, he is warm for the rest of the night.

That's a testament to current internal controls and their training. There's no evidence of systemic violations of the regulations put in place after the Church Committee hearings. Who exactly do you think gets hired by agencies like NSA? They're not random scumbags off the street. They know what job they have to do and they have clean backgrounds.
When it comes to cases like LOVEINT and the like that activity is indeed illegal and they crack down pretty hard when violations are found out. That activity is not systemic.If you build a man a fire, he is warm for the rest of the night.

The fact that LOVEINT happened along with a convenient 100% approval, I want outside independent investigations into all cases of approval.
The only way I would have faith is complete and utter open transparency.
But given the nature of their spying; I highly doubt they would allow such a thing to happen, even to randomly validated US citizens not related to the Government.

Yeah, that's what we have now. A regular person certainly isn't going to know the difference between a well reasoned argument and a "rubber stamping" as it relates to intelligence operations and the law. For starters, "rubber stamping" isn't exactly a technical term. What precisely is the threshold? You need some training to understand it.If you build a man a fire, he is warm for the rest of the night.
If you set a man on fire, he is warm for the rest of his life.If the laws are written in such a overly complex manner, then we need to start simplifying the laws so that the average person can read it and interpret it properly.
As far as "Rubber Stamping", we need to verify that there were no consitutional / Federal statute violations or using unintentional loop holes to bypass it or use lose interpretations to bypass the law or have judges give obviously faulty logic to approve warrants.Are you a MexiCAN or a MexiCAN'T - Johnny Depp 'Once Upon A Time in Mexico'TheShadowViper posted...Oh look, it is Orange Clockwork pretending there wasn't multiple systemic violations of the law by telecommunications companies and the NSA, again.

Everyone involved who either does the intelligence work (executive), reviews it (judicial), or provides oversight (legislative) understands it. Why should laws be simplified just so that regular people can understand it when it has no impact on them? The stakes are too important to lower our standards. The world is too complex and specialized.
You're not just talking about laws either, you're talking about technical collection methods and intelligence trade craft which requires a certain aptitude to understand. Intelligence work isn't exactly unskilled labor.As far as "Rubber Stamping", we need to verify that there were no consitutional / Federal statute violations or using unintentional loop holes to bypass it or use lose interpretations to bypass the law or have judges give obviously faulty logic to approve warrants.
A judge is already well aware of any statute violations and a layperson isn't going to be able to detect a loop hole very easily. If there is a loop hole it is the responsibility of the legislative branch in its oversight role to correct. You don't think they're aware of the issues?

Why should laws be simplified just so that regular people can understand it when it has no impact on them? The stakes are too important to lower our standards. The world is too complex and specialized.
I'm not asking for unskilled labor, but there are people who aren't connected who could qualify, but if that's too much to ask for a independent assessment; then the government will forever be distrusted by it's citizenry.

They have to offer me some way of verifying the Judge / Legislators are on the up and up; otherwise I don't trust their interpretations / results.

Sigh, some people just don't understand how arguments work.
No. I jumped straight to the most extreme example to rapidly prove your argument fails on principle. I proved it is not universally applicable. And Nazis vs. Jews is obviously not the sole exception to it.
If your argument is not universally applicable then it's not a very good one given you don't know a goddamn thing about TonyKojima or his family, and anything, including the Nazi example, could be true for him.PSN: TheUndying84The_Undying_84 posted...Sigh, some people just don't understand how arguments work.

The AP reported: “During the meeting, Akhmetshin said Veselnitskaya brought with her a plastic folder with printed-out documents that detailed what she believed was the flow of illicit funds to the Democratic National Committee (DNC). Veselnitskaya presented the contents of the documents to the Trump associates and suggested that making the information public could help the Trump campaign, he said.
The smoking gun. We got him!!!!
Except that conflicts with the lawyers earlier statement that she was only there to talk about the Russian adoption issue and nothing of the sort happened.
Yeah, that explains why the story has changed at least 3 times and the Trump team isn't even mentiong adoption anymore.

And sure, she and Jr. have already been confirmed liars on this meeting already, but THIS time I'm sure they're both telling the truth!Home is behind, the world ahead. And there are many paths to tread
Through shadow to the edge of night, until the stars are all alightSo Lynch gave the Russian lawyer (w/o government ties btw) a special entry into the country. Obama's Russian ambassador invited her to a Congressional speaking session. She's tied to the firm that made the false hooker dossier.
The Dems colluded w/ Russians to perpetuate a Trump-Russia narrative.
First Trump colluded with Russia to rig the vote. Then Trump colluded with Russia to hack the DNC. Now Don Jr colluded with Russia...by getting dirt on Hillary from a non-governmental individual.
Failing narrative every step of the way.
DNC actually meets with Ukrainian government to get dirt on Trump and Dems don't care at all.
Dems don't care about foreign government collusion they are just anti-Trump at all costs. Disgusting hypocrisy."So you never wanted a regular type life?"
"What the **** is that...barbeques and ball games?"I wonder if they know all of this because Lynch illegally wiretapped Manafort's phone? Obama administration is proving to be one of the dirtiest, most corrupt admins we've had but Dems won't say a word because he's their savior."So you never wanted a regular type life?"

No, on the contrary the Obama administration has proven to be one of the least corrupt administrations we've had. He didn't have a real scandal.

Fast and Furious was mostly about a regional ATF office letting an operation get out of hand. Obama's fingerprints aren't on it. Even Holden barely had anything to do with it. I believe it was the Assistant Attorney General who bungled that down there and he was basically fired.
The IRS issue was the case of an overworked office cutting corners and using key word searches to do their job more efficiently. This had nothing to do with any senior administration official.
Silence on Russian interference in election? Not a scandal. The administration already credibly explained their thought process on this.
Eric Holder being held in contempt? You already f***ing talked about Fast and Furious. You're double counting. With this Congress that's a badge of honor anyway.
Illegal wiretap on reporters? Not actually illegal. It was related to a valid investigation into illegal leaks.
Benghazi wasn't an actual scandal. The GOP for damn sure tried to make it one, but it wasn't.
Susan Rice unlawfully unmasking US citizens? Didn't actually happen. She lawfully had that power and it happens all the time.
Unethical meeting between hillary & lynch? Didn't actually happen. It was Bill and the only scandal about it was the bad optics for Hillary. In reality AGs meet with people under investigation all the time when they run in the same circles. This was tremendously beneficial for the opposing side.
I don't know much about this firing of Gerald Walpin, but if it's like these other examples I suspect it's a whole lot of nothing.If you build a man a fire, he is warm for the rest of the night.

How many of these supposed claims took place during his final year of office?Unmasking becomes necessary when the name of the american citizen is required in order to get a better understanding of the context.
In this case there are criminal cases being built based on these intercepts involving Trump associates. So it became necessary to unmask.
Also, do not confuse unmasking with "leaking". Not the same thing.divot1338 posted...It's astonishing how willing people are to just go along with whatever random brainfart Trump has on a given day.

That's not to say they were overstepping in this case.The internet, where people come to be a dumbass.https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/886950594220568576Most politicians would have gone to a meeting like the one Don jr attended in order to get info on an opponent.
