Not true. I have dismissed many aspects of the Russia story. I have repeatedly attacked the allegation that Trump had a server in Trump Tower that communicated with the Russians. I have probably been the most vocal critic on DCUM of that loony Louise Mensch. I have evaluated the Russian allegations based on the evidence supporting them and when that was found lacking, I have dismissed them.

In contrast, you folks are drawing lines from Awan that have no relationship to known facts and are obviously based in simple prejudice.

Why then are you always deleting any comments in the political thread that has to do with the investigation of Clinton and the emails? The WSJ thread alone has focused on Russia alone, while the Special Prosecutor has "wide range" of investigator options and it can take any path it wants. When theories come up on Clinton, you quickly delete it.

You keep posting off-topic posts. Mueller was hired to investigate Russia, not Awan and Pakistan. In your fantasies, these are somehow connected. But, legal process are not based on your imagination. Rather, they are based on reality.

Moreover, and this shows how warped your thinking is, you are acting like Clinton (who had a private email server but no known leaked emails), the DNC (whose email was hacked), and Awan (who did no work for the DNC) to all be the same thing. The posts I removed had nothing to do with Clinton, yet here you describe them that way.

i find Jeff to be pretty reasonable for a partisan. I think he is less obsessed than most dems with the Russia sorry and he definitively dismissed the worst conspiratorial garbage coming out of it.

Where do you disagree with him? Anything?

plenty. for example, i don't think there is anything to the russia story. here is what happened. trump likes putin, thinks he is good for russia and blabs about it. most americans, especially those in politics, don't understand why would anyone like putin. so they look for some kind of connection where there is no connection. but because trump is often in contact with various shady and weird characters, and lies a lot, if you look closely enough you will find stuff that looks suspicious. if someone started investigated trump for connections to, say, india or turkey, they would similar stuff - shady deals, lies.

so, no, i don't see that thing the same as jeff does. but for a partisan he has a reasonable attitude. there are many many democrats which are much more focused on this story and moire excessive in their accusations.

Ron DeSantis: Fired Debbie Wasserman Schultz aide may have terrorist ties

http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/ron-desantis-fired-debbie-wasserman-schultz-aide-may-have-terrorist-ties/article/2630522

Here is the entirety of DeSantis' evidence, "Pakistan is home to numerous terrorist organizations." Talk about guilt by association. I suggest that a bit more than that is needed before you start accusing someone of terrorism. Also, don't forget to make a few more jokes about Awan's lawyer's accusation that much of this is being driven by anti-Muslim animosity.

You can't swing a cat in Pakistan without hitting someone at least loosely involved with terrorist organizations. The Awans likely have a cousin of a cousin or a family business associate involved with terrorism. Depends on how extensive

This is a baseless allegation made by an obvious bigot. This sort of prejudice is not welcome on this website. I suggest that you find another website that is more hospitable to such views.

It's enough for many of the claimed Russian ties that Trump has. I mean, you can't prove that there isn't terrorist ties, right Jeff? The possibility of terrorist ties must be investigated!!! The people deserve the truth!

There is evidence that Flynn, Kushner, Sessions, and Manafort had undisclosed meetings with the Russians. There is evidence that Trump, Jr. met with the Russians under the pretext of receiving high level Russian government information about Clinton. There is evidence that Jr. lied about that meeting. There is no such evidence of Awan having terrorist ties. Given that almost any terrorist ties are grounds for felony charges in the US and falsely accusing individuals of felonies is itself subject to legal repercussions, I suggest that you tread carefully when making such allegations.

Meanwhile concerning Irman Awan, Congressman DeSantis said Thursday, “Once this kind of blew up in February, the other Democrats who had employed some of these people, they let them go. But for some reason, Debbie Wasserman Schultz kept Imran on until he was arrested last week. And so the question is, he was affirmatively barred from accessing any type of information systems, yet he was employed with taxpayer dollars as an information security consultant. So how can that be acceptable?”

DeSantis is the first of many in Congress that is calling for a DOJ Investigation into the finances of DWS using our tax dollars. Even the lefty Politico is reporting, so it must be true.
