    This might explain what is going on - or it might be crazy talk. The guy was high up in the State Department, though.

    The ads on that militia website are all about mail order brides and erectile dysfunction pills. :lol:

    They know their readers well; lonely and can't get it up.

    apparently in a NYT article, an FBI source says the Russians are not specifically pro-Republican, they just want to undermine the whole system.

    Which, in fact, electing Trump pretty much perfectly does.

    But the system is corrupt and needs undermining, or rather a complete uprooting.

    Well, no. There's a report which indicates the FBI essentially put the e-mails on their when it - illegally - synced with her cloud account.

    But we won't know the whole story before election day.

    In any case, Huma having duplicate e-mails is an entirely separate story from the Russians hacking the DNC

    who said anything about the KGB?

    You're under the impression that the Russians have been sitting out the international spy game since the KGB ended?

    Democrats? Republicans have been saying Kennedy stole the 1960 election for 56 years.

    Kennedy wouldn't be able to run as a Democrat today, he'd be too right leaning for them.

    That email I was laughing at came from wikileaks. Not the FBI.

    And the agents at the lower levels of the FBI aren't picking sides. They are picking justice.

    all that is true. The hilarious part is that you think Trump is an outsider to that system.

    You remember Donald, right? The guy who wouldn't be shit if his dad hadn't propped him up? the guy who's repeatedly failed on his merits and leverage survival with his silver spoon? The guy who freely admits he can do anything because he's rich? The guy who in turned has propped up his talentless kids by benefit of being born into wealth? The guy who can't be bothered to pay ACTUAL honest working people what he owes them and can't be bothered to use his own money to give to charity?

    A virtual paragon of meritocracy that one.

    Which of course the Russians, in their noble and righteous conviction are terribly concerned about because they only want the best for us
    :rofl:

    Democratic popular elections which result in a peaceful transition of power is what they are trying to meddle with. With your support.

    This is the core and foundation of Trump's support. The Russians simply know what letting these dogs out will do to this country. They don't even need Trump to win - they are out now and there will be a lot of hell to pay because of it.

    I don't. On THAT score they are one and the same.

    On corruption they are one and the same.
    On honesty they are one and the same.
    On being an engine of the political system they are one and the same.

    However, Trump has (at least) one flaw she doesn't have. See my last previous post for details.
    (actually, he has many she doesn't have but this one is paramount)

    I was referring to the supposedly "automatic" dump of 15 year old documents, but I should have quoted Dinner's post instead of yours, since he posted the link. Just clicked the wrong one.

    Because why have Donald and his corruption score of 3 when you can have Hillary with a corruption score of 38,492?
