Anniversaries: No Confusion About Collusion


One year ago yesterday, Putin agent and unindicted co-conspirator Donald "Rump" Trump met privately with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak in the Oval Office, and boasted about firing former FBI Director James Comey the previous day, saying he'd taken the pressure off the Russian election meddling investigation. It was like he was reporting to his handlers about his progress. Little did he know what he'd set in motion. Of course, U.S. media weren't informed about the meeting, and only found out about later it via Russian media outlets:


One year ago today, Rump sat down with NBC's Lester Holt for the infamous interview in which he acknowledged that he fired James Comey because of the Russian election meddling investigation (and after failing to get Comey to back off of disgraced collaborator Michael Flynn, who has pled guilty to lying to a Federal agent and has turned state's witness):


So within 48 hours, Rump privately tells Russian officials he's tamped down the investigation into their meddling, and publicly admits that he fired Comey because of the same investigation. But, NO COLLUSION! Sad!
