Any chance there will be surveillance on the Trump/Putin meeting? I'm wondering if this was announced today to try to get some juicy sound bites from the meeting.

im afraid of the Putin/Trump meeting here in Finland, such a bad feeling about it.. it's gonna backfire in some spectacular way. please no WW3, please. not yet! and no telling Putin he can take Finland.. i can't speak Russian at all.

The idea that world war 3 would be fought using conventional means of warfare is a fantasy. A modern "world war" would be nuclear holocaust, wiping out most of if not all humans in a matter of time. I don't think Putin or Trump really want that. Modern warfare is fought over the internet, and we use knowledge as are our weapons. Perhaps we're already at war in a digital sense.

We are certainly in a second Cold War. I'd argue that we have been for some time, and we're losing.

I mean, Russian intelligence will definitely have a way to record the meeting. It's doubtful that US intelligence will, because Dummy Donald won't allow it.

When our government barely understands technology and Russians exploit it... how can we not lose?
I don't think anyone really understood how effective Russian online propaganda would be in weaponizing gullible Americans against each other.

And the Republicans stuff their pockets with gold as Rome burns.

100 indictments. That's a lot of people. Wonder how many GOP are on that list...


That doesn't sound right. He requested 100 blank subpoena pages for Manaforts case earlier this week. Maybe he's confusing those 50 subpoenas for new indictments.

Robert Mueller files request for another 100 blank subpoenas in Paul Manafort case

Special counsel Robert Mueller on Wednesday filed a request for 100 blank subpoenas in the Eastern District of Virginia, where former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort is facing trial for bank and fraud charges.

This is in addition to a court filing in June, when Mueller's team filed a request for 150 blank subpoenas, or 75 possible witnesses.

The 100 blank subpoenas amount to 50 total possible subpoenas — in each case, a subpoena is needed for the witness and another is needed for the defense.

This is what that coward deleted:

"In order to improve relations with the world's other nuclear superpower, Russia, I suggest that President Trump formally pardon all 25 indicted Russians during his meeting with Putin. That would save American taxpayers millions and send a strong message to dirty cop Mueller!"

When they make a film about this whole ordeal, there will be an arc devoted to memes and shitposting.
