        “Ms. #Butina’s efforts to deal in Russian #JetFuel, detailed in hundreds of pages of previously unreported emails, were notable not just for their whiff of foreign intrigue but for who they involved: #DavidKeene, a former president of the #NRA...”https://www.nytimes.com/2018/09/02/us/politics/maria-butina-russian-spy.html …

        The level of greed in the US is incredible, especially among the powerful. Regular people are happy when they can find all the Marvel movies as torrents. People like the above will sell out their country.

        All any one needed/needs to know /realize is that it will be a cold day in hell before putin allows anyone "gun rights". So the only answer as to why nra allowed her in was to fuck with our democracy PERIOD! They were/are willful complicit participants in it all.

        Read that story. It's hard not to conclude that every one involved is a moron. But, Trump is living proof that even morons can succeed and do lasting damage to our country.

        That article makes me think that Butina wasn't the high-falutin' Russian agent that prosecutors might want us to believe. A bit player, at most, and a con artist, certainly, but no one important to any greater plan. Or is Putin incompetent?

        Not wasting a free article for September for her that's for sure. She's dirtier than Dick Cheney at a Wyoming oil rig in the early 70's after getting run off at Yale. Demon drink, you know.
