Russia Sought A Broad Reset With Trump, Secret Document Shows
A Russian proposal obtained by BuzzFeed News reveals Moscow’s ambitious plan to break with the past and launch a major rapprochement with the United States.
September 12, 2017, at 12:14 p.m.
WASHINGTON – In the third month of Donald Trump’s presidency, Vladimir Putin dispatched one of his diplomats to the State Department to deliver a bold proposition: The full normalization of relations between the United States and Russia across all major branches of government.
The proposal, spelled out in a detailed document obtained by BuzzFeed News, called for the wholesale restoration of diplomatic, military and intelligence channels severed between the two countries after Russia’s military interventions in Ukraine and Syria.
The broad scope of the Kremlin’s reset plan came with an ambitious launch date: immediately.
By April, a top Russian cyber official, Andrey Krutskikh, would meet with his American counterpart for consultations on “information security,” the document proposed. By May, the two countries would hold “special consultations” on the war in Afghanistan, the Iran nuclear deal, the “situation in Ukraine,” and efforts to denuclearize the “Korean Peninsula.” And by the time Putin and Trump held their first meeting, the heads of the CIA, FBI, National Security Council and Pentagon would meet face-to-face with their Russian counterparts to discuss areas of mutual interest. A raft of other military and diplomatic channels opened during the Obama administration’s first-term “reset” would also be restored.
[…]
Besides offering a snapshot of where the Kremlin wanted to move the bilateral relationship, the proposal reveals one of Moscow’s unspoken assumptions – that Trump wouldn’t share the lingering US anger over Moscow’s alleged interference in the 2016 election and might accept a lightning fast rapprochement.
“It just ignores everything that caused the relationship to deteriorate and pretends that the election interference and the Ukraine crisis never happened,” said Angela Stent, a former national intelligence officer on Russia during the George W. Bush administration who also reviewed the document.

So damn sick of these pundits making excuses for people voting for Trump & at the same time they admitted he didn’t know what he was doing.

Will Donald Trump Destroy the Presidency?
He disdains the rule of law. He’s trampling norms of presidential behavior. And he’s bringing vital institutions down with him

Robert Mueller is ‘going for the kill’ on Trump-Russia probe
Republicans with close links to the White House increasingly believe
that special counsel Robert Mueller is “going for the kill” in his
investigation into links between President Donald Trump and Russia.
Members of the GOP are said to have come to that stark conclusion based on Mueller’s hiring of lawyers experienced in dealing with money laundering crimes and the Mafia, as well as the intensity of his pursuit of both witnesses and evidence.
Trump has previously warned that investigation of his financial
dealings is a red line that Mueller should not cross. But that is
thought to be exactly what Mueller is doing, including looking into a
proposal made during the 2016 campaign to build a Trump Tower in Moscow.
The new report comes just days after Trump’s former chief strategist, Steve Bannon, told CBS’s 60 Minutes that Trump’s firing of former FBI Director James Comey, which he called the worst mistake in “modern political history,” led directly to the appointment of Mueller to oversee the investigation.
Mueller’s probe appears to have stepped up in recent weeks. It was
reported last month that he had impaneled a federal grand jury in
Washington and has issued subpoenas related to a meeting Donald Trump Jr. held with a Russian-government-linked lawyer in June 2016. Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser, Jared Kushner, as well as his then-campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, were also at the meeting. Last week, Trump Jr. was interviewed behind closed doors by the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Um….did the voters know about the OTHER FOUR BEFORE THE ELECTION?

Kay from BJ has been consistent since before the election about two things:
1. The NYT is garbage because they should have done their phucking job
2. I put it this way – the curve for unqualified White men is REAL.
I have been so tickled at the way she brings receipts for #2.
Kay says:

Bringing a receipt.
Answering the question – what would have happened if this was 44?
@Patricia Kayden:
On the video at roughly the 45-minute mark, you can catch
glimpses of Trump fidgeting around and talking with his hand over heart during the moment of silence.

It’s just very hard for me to accept because you and I both know the 3 day freak out that would have ensued if Obama had ever done this.
I insist they recognize this double standard and explain it. Obama
would have badgered until he held a beer summit with survivors or
something.
Cokie Roberts would do 500 words on how his foreigness
(blackness) makes him not like the rest of us, because we revere 9/11.
Every fucking day Obama was forced to prove he belonged in
that job and every fucking day they lower the standards so Trump can believe he belongs in that job. It contradicts the whole concept of “merit”- shows it to be an elaborate lie. People need merit! They need to believe that it matters, because if it doesn’t why try at all?

“Either You Go There or You Leave…This is For The General Public” – Homeless Bused to Separate Shelter Ahead of Irma
by David Grossman David Grossman
As people throughout the state of Florida fled to shelters ahead of Hurricane Irma over the weekend, Volusia County was redirecting the homeless to separate shelters than those housing everyone else.
Video from The Daytona Beach News-Journal showed a group of homeless people being turned away after being dropped off at David C. Hinson Sr. Middle School, which was turned into a shelter. In the video, the group was told by two men, dressed in what appear to be police or security uniforms, that they couldn’t stay, and were directed to a bus that would transport them to a shelter specifically intended for the homeless. When one of the men in the group pointed out that they had signed up to stay at the shelter at the middle school, he was told by one of the men that, “Right now, you do not have somewhere to currently reside, so either you go there or leave. It’s plain and simple.”
When the homeless man attempted to clarify that the reason the group had to go on the bus transporting people was because they were homeless, the second of the two men responded stating, “No, you can walk [to the shelter] if you want to. You don’t have to go on the bus.” One of the men redirecting the group then confirmed that “This is for the general public, yes”, but claimed that “because you don’t have a place to stay, has nothing to do with how we look at you.” The other man told the group, “We have a separate shelter for homeless.” He apologized, saying that the matter was “a misunderstanding on the officer’s part that dropped you off here”, and explained that they learned there was a shelter for the homeless after the group was brought to the middle school.

Apology from Equifax CEO, Tom Equifax
Good morning, America. I’m Tom Equifax, founder & CEO of Equifax. As you’ve probably read, a hacker recently gained access to a couple of files, which contained extensive personal & financial information for 143 million Americans. It even had some Social Security and credit card numbers in it, which is going to mean big trouble for a whole lot of people. And I’m sorry that any of you think I give a shit.
Credit score companies are evil, and I love running mine. So why would I care if we lost enough data to ruin 143 million lives? I work on ruining all your lives, every day. This is a freebie. This is boner material. Just imagine how many fraudulent lines of credit are gonna come out of this! I’m gonna get to drop so many of your scores, based on things you didn’t even do. And it’s gonna be awesome.

Ha ha. Yep, that’s about right I would say.
Good morning, everyone!

LOL Loving the doggie cartwheel attempts.
I like that when he fails the cartwheel, he decides to rub his back on floor as though that was his original intention. We can learn a lot from dogs.
