Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

      The Left's attraction to Russian Collusion conspiracies will never end. Maybe if Trump meets with Kim Jong-un they can tack on a North Korean Collusion conspiracy. At least that's something new.https://twitter.com/emptywheel/status/975072218945347585 …

      To the extent we're ALL still focused on Comey and McCabe and what they've given Mueller, it gives Mueller's prosecutors more cover to finalize the proof that Trump's campaign conspired with Russian actors. But don't tell the President. 😜

      I'm not "attracted to Russian collusion conspiracies." I've reported on the conspiracy Trump's team engaged in with Russians. Huge difference, if you understand it.

      There better be real, indisputable proof. I'm open to the idea that Trump directly and knowingly colluded with the Russian government or people acting on its behalf. Most liberals are not open to the idea that he didn't.

      "Colluded" is only a word confused people use. The word and crime is "conspiracy."

      Replying to @emptywheel @thackerpd

      I'm not confused. I'm aware "collusion" isn't a crime per se. Was there a deal? Was there a criminal conspiracy? Call it what you want. I need proof.

      Replying to @Kingpimpfresh @thackerpd

      Yes, there was a criminal conspiracy. Mueller has already charged it 3 times, and gotten one guilty plea on it. There's a fourth that will serve as a magnet tying the other three together, I believe.

          I mean what 3 conspiracy charges are you talking about? Manafort and Gates charges have to do with their Ukraine work far before the campaign. Is the 3rd the Russian troll farm?

          Your "bait" was asking for, "conspiracy." When ew provided it, you "switched." It's not a felony if it happened "...before the campaign." You think Manafort and Gates found Jesus, stopped committing conspiracy against U.S.?

          I guess since you were born yesterday I have to explain this to you. There's an entire industry of grifters that do what Manafort did. The Ukraine work involved the Podesta's firm too. If Mueller wanted to charge people who lobby or work on behalf of foreign governments.....

          I'm glad you did a little research. I have no idea wtf you're talking about with Angela Davis.

          "WTF," which part didn't you understand? HINT: There's a reason they're not called the "TEN SUGGESTIONS." Do a "little research."
