Not good news here for the NRA.
US indicts Russian gun activist who cozied up to the NRA and Trump campaign motherjones.com/politics/2018/…
The Justice Department essentially accuses Butina of posing as a student while secretly acting as a Russian agent.
But spy or student, Butina got her Masters before her arrest. Some people who aren't secret agents don't manage that. Kudos. motherjones.com/politics/2018/…

Bada bing bada boom.
Manafort viewed Jewish concern about anti-Semitism as a tool to operationalize on behalf of a thug client.
This Israeli involvement in Manafort's effort to trade on the idea that Obama wasn't sufficiently anti-anti-Semitism is a big deal. "MANAFORT coordinated privately with a senior Israeli government official to issue a written statement publicizing this story."

The Senate Intelligence Committee has sent a letter seeking to interview Randy Credico, who Roger Stone claims was his WikiLeaks connection. motherjones.com/politics/2018/…
Credico plans to decline to voluntarily cooperate with the Intel Committee. That's based partly on advice from his attorney Martin Stolar, who says: “I don’t trust [Burr] and I don’t want to set Randy up to be charged with some kind of perjury even if he’s telling the truth.”
“It’s kind of like the fix is in," Stolar said. "They’re taking a line that is favorable to the president no matter what you tell them.”
“It’s a clown show. It’s a witch hunt.”

The FBI said Flynn lied. Flynn, in his guilty plea, also admitted he lied. But this Trump citation marks a banner day for the idiotic but unkillable idea that it's exonerating for Flynn that, before obtaining evidence showing that Flynn lied, FBI agents didn't know he was lying.
It's close to impossible to read Flynn's Statement of Offense, in which he admitted falsely telling the FBI he hadn't talked to Kislyak during the transition about sanctions, when actually he had, without accepting that he lied. It's on the internet: justice.gov/file/1015126/d…
There have been like 47 articles by Byron York et al. asserting that the agents who interviewed Flynn initially believed him, so somehow that means he didn't lie. That is nonsense. It just means he lied convincingly, as effective liars do. But evidence falsified his claims.

‘Russian opposition figure Alexey Navalny alleged that a former Trump campaign aide “transmitted” information to the Kremlin. The conduit: Russian aluminum magnate Oleg Deripaska, who is known to be part of Vladimir Putin’s inner circle.’
