The Gripping Story Behind The Case For Trump-Putin Collusion

[turbinetree]

The most important witness so far in the investigation of President Trump’s ties to Russia didn’t even qualify for CNN.

While the Washington press corps and the rest of the world was distracted last week by the antics of the Mooch, Spicey, and the Donald, Bill Browder, an American-born British banker, was relegated to the side stage of C-SPAN3. For the Senate Judiciary Committee and the hard-core cable audience, Browder laid out what NPR called “a terrifying and complex picture of Putin’s Russia.”

A week later, Browder’s testimony remains the #1 article on TheAtlantic.com website, and for good reason. It is a gripping story that makes sense of the motive forces behind the collaboration of Trump and Putin in the 2016 election.

While Browder was only summoned to Capitol Hill to talk about the Foreign Agent Registration Act, his testimony about Putin’s government provided something that Washington and the public at large sorely need. Amid a welter of revelations and allegations, Browder provided a coherent narrative of how and why Putin sought Trump’s help.

9. Wado-------------Thank you

I know he has been covered on the three important news programs on MSNBC: Maddow, Hayes and O'Donnell, but this should have been on Frontline, or a NBC, CBS, or ABC special to get to the people at the local level the information that is needed.

I keep thinking of Wilbur Ross and Cyprus bank ..................
