What
We Don’t Know
■
It
is not clear whether Mr. Flynn’s conversations with the Russian
ambassador were directed by, or carried out with the knowledge of,
the president-elect or any of his other senior advisers, including
the chief strategist, Stephen K. Bannon. It is also not clear why the
White House did not act earlier on the information given to it by the
Justice Department.

WASHINGTON
— Russia has secretly deployed a new cruise missile that American officials say violates a landmark arms control treaty, posing a major test for President Trump as his administration is facing a crisis over its ties to Moscow.

WASHINGTON
(Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump made it clear he expects
Russia to return Crimea to Ukraine and reduce violence in Ukraine,
White House spokesman Sean Spicer said on Tuesday.
"President
Trump has made it very clear that he expects the Russian government
to de-escalate violence in the Ukraine and return Crimea,"
Spicer said at a daily news briefing. "At the same time, he
fully expects to and wants to get along with Russia."

What
the Russians are doing by stealing documents, spending unlimited
amounts of money and creating and distributing “fake news” has
the potential to corrupt our political system to its core, if it
hasn’t already. If Russia invades the Baltic states, could US
assistance to them die in Congress because elected officials fear
Russian retaliation? It sounds unbelievable, but we saw the GOP
mysteriously change its platform this summer, removing aid to Ukraine
– and that was before Putin proved his influence over the election.
