    You don't know that Russia is a hostile government, apparently. Hence the use of your quotes around the word.

    I wouldn't even consider making such a statement. You and I would have no way of knowing what evidence of anyone's wrongdoing exists. We are not privy to that kind of information.

    Your point is moot now, robin. Some on the Alt Right are calling the indictments a boon for Trump, while Trump at the same time is calling on the GOP to protect him from the boon!

    There has been an ongoing investigation for a year or so now and nothing yet. We know there is no evidence or otherwise it would certainly have been made public, or leaked. But with all those lawyers involved getting involved it's a huge make work project, a four year orgasm for all of them.

    No, it certainly would not have been leaked. George Papadopoulos was arrested 4 months ago and pled guilty one month ago, and there wasn't even a tiny hint of that until yesterday. No leaks of anyone being arrested, no leaks of anyone cooperating, not a word, not a sound, not a hint. That right there proves that Mueller's investigation is tight as a drum.

    Russia is the hostile government that interfered in our political affairs and elections.

    A reckoning is coming for Russia and Putin, the weak leader and weak country of Europe.

    But Hillary and her group were out there lobbying and cutting all kinds of big money deals in broad daylight and the Left ignores it.

    If you have actionable cause, icehole3, get the federal investigators to do something, yeah?

    It's the Swamp - and many seem to prefer it to honest government. They pick their team and - no matter what the corruption or ineffectiveness- just stay with it for life. Political parties call these people their 'base'.

    Release the name of George Papadopoulos and people would have asked "Who? The guy who works for the Clintons?"

    Nothing has been leaked because there's been nothing to leak.

    People ask that?

    You don't know what they have. Nor do I. Nobody does. They apparently have some things, based on the announcement yesterday about Papadopoulos which wasn't leaked in even a small way.

    Hostile? They gave him a reset button and everything. You can't be hostile after you're given a reset button.

    He probably did.

    But going back to Mueller, there was no hint of George's arrest until yesterday. Mueller's team appears to be leak free. As of now.

    You dont find it strange that it was "leaked" on Friday about the Monday indictments but SC would "not comment"..

    No, I mean the leak about the man who was arrested almost 4 months ago that we didn't know about until yesterday morning.

    The indictments were handed down by the Grand Jury, not the Special Counsel.
