Trump's financial and political links to Russia, Putin and Russian mob
Is this anything we should be concerned about?

This article downplays it a bit, but I'm not so sure. I think his comments about not supporting NATO members were Russia to invade is pretty troubling. I don't see how it helps US interests in the world if Putin suddenly gets confident he can invade his neighbors.

The call by a presidential candidate for a hostile foreign government to hack classified materials in order to release further incriminating evidence is concerning.

Blah-blah. The FBI did not do their job. Period. Corruption. Because of these email leaks, the corruption in the DNC and Debbie Wasserman-Schultz was exposed. I welcome any email leaks or information that exposes corruption in any party. Especially the corrupt Dem's and teflon Hillary. Expose the corruption and let the cards fall where they may.hawkwing wrote:The call by a presidential candidate for a hostile foreign government to hack classified materials in order to release further incriminating evidence is concerning.

It is quite possible that they already have them.

Re: Trump's financial and political links to Russia, Putin and Russian mob
Let's talk about "putting politics" ahead of national security. Let's talk about Hillary and her home brewed email server - and her putting the nations most current, top secret, classified, closely guarded national secrets on a server that had less security than gmail or the DNC email system. There in NO doubt in my mind that somebody (probably Russia, China, and others) hacked Hillary's email server and accessed the nations most current secrets.BlueK wrote:But is that not just putting politics ahead of national security?Ddawg wrote:Blah-blah.

Now, I speak with some authority when it comes to Top Secret clearances and national secret information. During the course of my career, I worked in the anti-Terrorist world for several years and had a Top Secret clearance. I was detailed to the FBI and worked in a Joint Taskforce with the FBI for years. I went through the vetting process and received a Top Secret clearance by the FBI. I still have it. I understand the seriousness of guarding the nations information and secrets - Hillary does not. She should be in jail. That is not a joke. If I did what Hillary did, I would have had my laptop, all electronic devices, notes, briefcase, all my work seized, I would have been escorted off the premises, banned from re-entry, prosecuted and convicted. I would have gone to jail - no doubt. Hillary is on the verge of sitting in the Oval Office. National security and the war on terror is no joke to me. It was my life for years.

Re: Trump's financial and political links to Russia, Putin and Russian mob
We're going to stretch to try and make this connection -- and completely ignore the fact that Hillary has been bought by radical Islam.
I'm just a regular, everyday normal guy,
I can't afford a car, I use public transportation,
I don't mind, I read till I reach my destination,
sometimes a newspaper, sometimes a book,
the money I save, this stuff is off the hook,

They do. They had them while Hillary was still Sec. of State with her half baked insecure home brew server.scott715 wrote:It is quite possible that they already have them.

She's also been bought by Russia, Saudi Arabia, the Ukraine, Norway, Sweden, etc.Schmoe wrote:We're going to stretch to try and make this connection -- and completely ignore the fact that Hillary has been bought by radical Islam.

Re: Trump's financial and political links to Russia, Putin and Russian mob
See petraeus scandal as the textbook definition of a double standard. Hillary should have stepped down the day the email scandal rolled out. the fact that she is likely our next president is laughable.Ddawg wrote:Let's talk about "putting politics" ahead of national security.
