Jill
Stein In Senate Crosshairs For "Collusion With The Russians"
18
December, 2017
Step
aside Tovarish Trump, it's time for Comrade Stein.
Seemingly
unable to deliver the finishing blow in the Trump Russian collusion
probe, the Senate Intelligence Committee investigating Russian
interference in the 2016 election is now seeking documents from Green
Party candidate Jill Stein over what Committee Chairman Richard Burr
(R-NC) characterized as "collusion with the Russians,"
reports Buzzfeed.
Dennis
Trainor Jr., who worked for the Stein campaign from January to August
of 2015, says Stein contacted him on Friday saying the Senate
Intelligence Committee had requested that the campaign comply with a
document search.
Trainor,
who served as the campaign’s communications director and acting
manager during that time, told BuzzFeed News that he was informed of
the committee’s request because during his time on the campaign,
his personal cell phone was “a primary point of contact” for
those looking to reach Stein or the campaign. That included producers
from RT News, the Russian state-funded media company, who booked
Stein for several appearances, Trainor said.
Trainor
says Stein told him to wait for further instructions, adding that the
Stein campaign would be in contact over the next week after receiving
instructions, presumably from the Senate Intelligence Committee. The
former campaign aide said he believes Stein plans to fully cooperate
with the investigation, and will post the documents to her website
"in an effort to show complete transparency and kind of wage her
own war against [...] what I imagine she thinks is an overblown
investigation into collusion."
Senator
Burr said that the committee is "just starting" on the task
of investigating two campaigns, but did not elaborate.
Michael
Flynn, Vladimir Putin, Jill Stein Attend RT Dinner
Stein
attended a 2015 dinner hosted by RT in Moscow where she was, drumroll
please, sitting at the same table as Russian President Vladimir Putin
and Michael Flynn, Trump's National Security Advisor of 24 days until
his dismissal for lying to Vice President Mike Pence. Flynn recently
pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russian
Ambassador Sergey Kislyak.
In
a July letter to Donald Trump Jr., the Senate Judiciary brought up
Stein's name in a request for "all communications to, from, or
copied" to the President's son having to do with Stein, however
Trainor said he would be surprised if Stein ever communicated with
Trump jr.
Stein
maintains her attendance at the RT dinner was different from Flynn's
in that she was not paid to be there, and covered her own travel
costs.
Even Mother Jones admits there's nothing to desperate Russia smear spread by Maddow, Reid & fellow neo-McCarthyists.

Stein says nothing happened at her dinner with Vladimir Putin
The
Green Party candidate says no money—or even words—were exchanged.

According
to Buzzfeed, Trainor said he believes the committee is primarily
interested in Stein’s appearances on RT, “vilifying anyone who’s
ever appeared on or talked with anyone on the RT network,"
adding “There’s a lot of smoke around RT and not a lot of fire."
Former
Clinton Campaign staffer Zac Petkanas - who was tapped in January to
lead a "war room" effort described as a "constant
campaign" over Trump-Russia allegations, can barely contain
himself:
Glenn
Greenwald of The Intercept notes the kneejerk McCarthyist response
from leading Democrats over the Stein document request:
So
- according to the Democrats, Russia helped Donald Trump win the
election, while Jill Stein - who spent the better part of a month
pushing for a recount last November which could only hurt Trump, also
colluded with the Russians. Perhaps her KGB Russian was a little
rusty and she misunderstood her handler's instructions?
And
with that, we are taking reader submissions of who will be the next
prominent politician to be "exposed" as a Russian agent by
the US political apparatus, still scrambling over a year later, to
"explain" Hillary's loss by blaming the Kremlin's
revolutionary middle class mind-control technology.
