By the way, you guys, you remember how excited Jiggy was that Manafort et al were going to publicly testify to the Senate next week?

Will they meet with lawmakers before Susan Rice? My bet is on the more transparent ones.

Not like that evil ***** Susan Rice, who did so in private!

Open session *****! Who did you leak to? Or was it just a video?

Manafort and Trump Jr. will be interviewed privately, won't publicly testify

I'm sure Jiggy is very upset that they're going to be doing the same thing as "that slime Podesta" and Crooked Susan Rice, right?? And he lost his bet about who talks to them first! LMAO

I am shocked that Susan Rice didn't back out a second time. Who knew? *shrugs*

I hope her testimony is given the same courtesy as she gave Flynn's conversations.

MUH UNMASKING!

Do you give Susan Rice credit for being as forthcoming as Paul Manafort and Donald Trump Jr. with the Senate?

WAPO:

Sessions discussed Trump-campaign-related matters with Russian ambassador, U.S. intelligence intercepts show

The accounts from Sergey Kislyak to his superiors, intercepted by U.S. spy agencies, show that discussions in April and July of 2016 with Jeff Sessions included policy issues important to Moscow, contradicting public assertions by the attorney general. One U.S. official said that Sessions has provided “misleading” statements that are “contradicted by other evidence.” A former official said that the intelligence indicates that Sessions and Kislyak had “substantive” discussions on matters including Trump’s positions on Russia-related issues and prospects for U.S.-Russia relations in a Trump administration.

Sure I do. Glad she did.

As a government official, she probably should have testified in public, like Comey did.
And I don't necessarily trust the Senators to ask the questions that should be asked.

But she still gets credit for doing it, even though she probably didn't have much of a choice.

Same goes for Jared Kushner, right?

Would his testimony be exclusively about this meeting? The investigation as a whole is an ongoing thing covering a large period of time including when he's been a government official.

I don't know what he's accused of doing in violating his duty to the American people as our employee. Is there something beyond election collusion?

The WaPo story seems to be bull**** on the surface. We shall see - might want to reserve reservations here.

Trump did fire Flynn for lying about Russian communication though...so, we shall see.

Part of election collusion is any possible coverup attempts by the Trump team, both before and after inauguration.

SF86: Nat Sec questionnaire:

The U.S. Criminal Code (title 18, section 1001) provides that knowingly
falsifying or concealing a material fact is a felony which may result in fines
and/or up to five (5) years imprisonment.

Not going to indulge in scope creep here. If there was no collusion, then no need to worry about a cover-up. Let's stay focused.

It's quite amusing, btw, to watch Jiggy refine his definition on the fly of who needs to testify publicly and who doesn't, based purely on which things define Susan Rice but not Jared Kushner. Any moment now "drawing a salary" is going to become a very important requirement.

Remember, Trump and Associates are under investigation - it's up to the government to prove ITS case.

Why did she agree to publicly testify and then back out? And why did she switch chambers?

Why? This - taking aim at the Attorney General of the United States and basically saying he perjured himself (or more specifically, that according to what the Russian ambassador to the US told his bosses, Sessions perjured himself) - strikes me as the type of story that is exceptionally dangerous for a paper to run with if they aren't very sure about its credibility.

Is Rice under investigation? I thought she did the unmasking and the leaks and the Benghazi and stuff, does the government not have to prove their case against her?

Yeah, these papers are always on the straight and narrow with these kinds of stories.

Quote:

Officials emphasized that the information contradicting Sessions comes from U.S. intelligence on Kislyak’s communications with the Kremlin, and acknowledged that the Russian ambassador could have mischaracterized or exaggerated the nature of his interactions.

“Obviously I cannot comment on the reliability of what anonymous sources describe in a wholly uncorroborated intelligence intercept that the Washington Post has not seen and that has not been provided to me,” said Sarah Isgur Flores, a Justice Department spokeswoman in a statement. She reiterated that Sessions did not discuss interference in the election.

Russian and other foreign diplomats in Washington and elsewhere have been known, at times, to report false or misleading information to bolster their standing with their superiors or to confuse U.S. intelligence agencies.

Once again though - another leak. Which, unless it's Trump (who has the authority to declassify information), would be illegal. There thoughts he might have done it to give cover to getting rid of Sessions, except he'd have a hard time getting an AG confirmed while the Mueller investigation is going on. Interesting times.

She was our employee at the time. Kushner was not.

Well, I'd like to see Trey Gowdy ripping into her. I'd prefer her testimony be public. Trump trio as well, but definitely her.

You mean the Cable News Network doesn't publish news? You might want to tell them that.

How about when the New York Times had to "recommit themselves to journalism"?
