@maddow Re. your discussion of the secret annex to the original WB complaint, and your explanation that public knowledge of U.S. withholding of military assistance would, in itself, be of benefit to Russia (and harm Ukraine):
The WB, presumably, only went to those lengths (creating a secret annex) on the assumption that Russia *did not know* of USG's withholding of assistance. That assumption strikes me as naive.
For all the reasons powerfully demonstrated by your show tonight, the presumption must be that Trump is actively pursuing a Russian agenda, and that, given the range and intricacy of matters involved, there is active, ongoing consultation betw Trump and Kremlin, by means unknown.
What the WB's effort to 'hide' from RU the fact of USG w/holding of assistance shows is that, even within the IC, there is not yet a full understanding of Trump's likely treason (using the term in its common sense). We have yet to fully reckon with the scale of this disaster.
