Trump administration sought to enlist intelligence officials, key lawmakers to counter Russia stories

Source: Washington Post

The Trump administration has enlisted senior members of the intelligence community and Congress in efforts to counter news stories about Trump associates’ ties to Russia, a politically charged issue that has been under investigation by the FBI as well as lawmakers now defending the White House. 

Acting at the behest of the White House, the officials made calls to news organizations last week in attempts to challenge stories about alleged contacts between members of President Trump’s campaign team and Russian intelligence operatives, U.S. officials said. 

The calls were orchestrated by the White House after unsuccessful attempts by the administration to get senior FBI officials to speak with news organizations and dispute the accuracy of stories on the alleged contacts with Russia. 

The White House on Friday acknowledged those interactions with the FBI but did not disclose that it then turned to other officials who agreed to do what the FBI would not — participate in White House-arranged calls with news organizations, including The Washington Post. The White House insisted the officials speak on the condition of anonymity — a practice President Trump has condemned.

The deputy director of the FBI CAME to Pence. He told him that the article in the news "was bullshit."

Pence asked him if he would produce a statement saying that.

Dept director said no, but that Pence could say exactly that.

Exactly how does that square with what fuckhead in the OP posted?

first off, it was priubus, not pence. second, that is hearsay, as the fbi isn't confirming that is what happened. third, and most important, is to look at all the FACTS to this trump/russian connection that you seem to think is made up by "fake news":

- trump has personal ties to russia. jr admitted alot of their investments come from russia. why the denials about that? 

- mike flynn gets busted for talking things up with russia, gets fired only AFTER the truth comes out to the public, weeks after trump was told. why the denials about that?

- trump's personal lawyer and trump get caught in another lie, where the lawyer did indeed meet with a ukranian cronie who wanted to pass on info to trump. why the denials about all that? 

- trump's former campaign manager, manafort, had all kinds of ties to russia and ukraine

- trump's pick for SOS has ties to russia

- numerous intel agencies, here and abroad, intercepted conversations between trump's team and russia. just like they did with flynn.

so with all that said, who are you going to believe? the news organizations that are reporting all these ties, or the known liars in the WH who have been caught time and time again bullshitting everyone on these matters?

now you are either one dumb mother fucker who thinks this is all just a coincidence, or a fucking hack not wanting to admit your boy is a major fraud with some russian hands up his ass making him walk and talk.

the fbi has not commented, therefore what prebious is saying the fbi said, is "hear say"
