Mueller Finally Starts to Target Trump’s Israel Ties

RE: George Papadopoulos, the Trump campaign foreign policy advisor who pled guilty last October to lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russian agents

"..As expected, Mangiante explained that her husband, whom she married just three months ago, is innocent of what he admitted he did, and in no way was working for Russian intelligence.

George had nothing to do with Russia,” she explained, seemingly in an effort to convince the White House that Papadopoulos lacks any dirt on the president’s Kremlin connections that could assist Special Counsel Robert Mueller in his investigation of Team Trump.

However, what Mangiante said next was the real shocker: her husband “pled guilty because [Mueller’s prosecutors] threatened to charge him with being an Israeli agent.”"

some do seem to think any and all negative comments towards the Likudists and Netanyahu are forbidden. Well to hell with that. I stand with the Israeli Liberals, not the war mongers.

biggest criminals in the world.

He's pretty much offered up the USA.

I wonder what's left of our Nat Security & how much Trump has handed over to those comrads.

Specifically the Passover seder which ends with the phrase.

To show it in a graphic covered with splattered blood is Antisemitic.

I'm not going to alert because it won't matter but I am going to send your post to skinner.

The meaning of the phrase was perverted and twisted by the war mongers to support their war and gain support for it from the moderates. It is completely perverted and out of context to be used to support killings. I can't think of a more appropriate visual way to bring this to any Semitic's attention. Apologies to the peace lovers for I love and am with them.

Both fathers and sons are criminals in waiting, both are self-serving egomaniacs, but there is one key difference: Ben is a smart criminal, and Don is stupid on a stick! So Ben uses dotard Don at will.
