[OKTexas]

What you got next regressives?

Late Monday, The New York Times reported that the FBI spent several months over the summer investigating Russia’s potential meddling in the U.S. election and found no direct link to Trump. The report said law enforcement officials examined ties between Trump’s business and a Russian bank. They also looked at former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort’s long relationship with pro-Russian officials in Ukraine.

Last ditch effort by Liberals to play "Hey look over there!" That won't work either.

I'm sorry you can't figure out how to write complete sentences, or understand that doing business with companies is not the same as ties to governments. Maybe by the time you graduate 6th grade, you'll figure out both.

The thread is about Trump and the Russian government, do try to stay on topic.

Companies in Russia are hard to separate from the gov't and the gangsters- kind of like construction in NYC, dupe. And those are complete sentences, moron.

It does not require us to believe that Trump has any connection to the Kremlin to consider that Putin has a preference to have Trump as the president. There is reason to believe that Putin would like to see Trump in the Oval Office if only to expect that the American government will grind to a halt and implode under Donald Trump's erratic and bizarre personality.

The FBI says it.
The NY Times said it.
Liberals on this board have posted links to articles declaring it WHILE falsely claiming there is a connection.

Desperate Libs won't / can't let it go.

But Hillary and Bill and their sleazy Clinton Foundation are in bed with some unsavoury and criminal people.

As Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton Hosted at Dinner a Ukrainian Donor to Family Foundation

Report by AP finds Democratic candidate met with many donors to organization while at State Department

"WASHINGTON—While she was secretary of state, Hillary Clinton hosted a dinner involving Clinton Foundation donors, including a Ukrainian businessman who had given money to the organization and who had retained a lobbyist to arrange State Department meetings.

The dinner attended by Victor Pinchuk four years ago was mentioned in a new batch of State Department emails obtained by the conservative group Citizens United through public records requests and released on Tuesday."

Cash Flowed to Clinton Foundation Amid Russian Uranium Deal

Email batch provides additional evidence that Clinton Foundation donors got access at State Department

Newly released State Department emails shed additional light on the relationships Hillary Clinton and her top aides maintained with her family’s foundation during the years she served as secretary of state.

The emails, obtained by the conservative group Judicial Watch as part of a public-records lawsuit, included one in which a longtime aide to Bill Clinton sought a State Department meeting on behalf of a major foundation donor.

A 2011 exchange, released by the State Department this year, showed thatUkrainian steel magnate Victor Pinchuk, who has pledged more than $10 million to the Clinton Foundation in recent years, met that year with a top State Department official. Pinchuk spoke on behalf of Ukraine’s president to try to soothe tensions with Washington over that country’s human rights record and its growing closeness with Russian President Vladimir Putin, emails showed.

Ukrainian Businessman Sought Meeting With Bill Clinton Last Year

Victor Pinchuk, billionaire Clinton Foundation donor, wanted ‘private meeting’ in Europe

Ukrainian businessman and major Clinton Foundation donor Victor Pinchuk sought a meeting with Bill Clinton last year over the situation in Ukraine, newly released emails show.

Pinchuk, whose foundation has contributed millions to the Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea Clinton Foundation, “relentlessly” pushed for a meeting with the former president and possibly other Western leaders to signal “support for Ukraine,” according to an email released Monday by Wikileaks in a trove of John Podesta’s hacked communications.

- Snip -

The message showcases how high-level donors to the Clinton Foundation have been afforded access to the Clintons, fueling questions about the influence they could exert over Clinton if she is elected president.

The message was released not long after a report from USA Today showing how companies that donated to the Clinton Foundation hired lobbyists—some of whom were major Clinton bundlers—to influence the State Department during Clinton’s time as secretary of state. The foundation has been scrutinized for accepting donations from foreign individuals and governments.

Pinchuk is a former Ukrainian member of parliament who founded Interpipe Group, a Ukrainian metallurgical plant. Newsweek reported in April 2015 that Interpipe shipped railway parts and other products to Iran in 2011 and 2012, possibly violating U.S. sanctions on shipments to Iran at the time.

Pinchuk is the fourth richest person in Ukraine, according to Forbes, with a net worth valued at $1.36 billion. His foundation, named after himself, has contributed between $10 million and $25 million to the Clinton Foundation, according to its donor page.

The Ukrainian businessman’s relationship with the Clintons has previously been subject to scrutiny. The Wall Street Journal reported in August that Hillary Clinton hosted a dinner involving Pinchuk and other Clinton Foundation donors during her time as secretary of state. The dinner, which took place in June 2012, was referenced in a batch of State Department emails obtained through a public records request by Citizens United.

Report: FBI says no direct ties between Russia, Donald Trump's campaign

From the same TiggerTx article:

Manafort, Trump’s former campaign chairman who resigned in August, called the probe into his dealings with Russia and Ukraine an “outrageous smear” and added “there is nothing of my business activities to investigate.”

In a separate report, the Times also found that Trump may have used questionable — if not illegal — accounting tactics to avoid paying taxes in the 1990s, during the height of his financial struggles. He continues to be the only presidential nominee in recent history who refuses to release his tax returns.

No argument - PUTIN did...but the false claim that Trump is connected to Putin is a LIE with no supporting evidence.

By the way - correction: HILLARY sabotaged Hillary's campaign. It was HER actions that made all this possible.
