{at secret Seychelles meeting }
EXCLUSIVE – Erik Prince tells Fox News that there was no perjury, no collusion and no attempt to set up a back channel to the Kremlin when he met with a Russian oligarch weeks before President Donald Trump’s inauguration.
Prince, who is the founder of the Blackwater private security firm and brother to Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, says accusations that he lied to the House Intelligence Committee simply aren’t true.
{snip} ... Prince, who testified without an attorney present, says his comments about meetings with the UAE government, its advisers and delegations in the Seychelles cover Nader who worked for the Emiratis.
Now Schiff wants Prince to testify again before the committee; Prince tells Fox News, “There is no need. Schiff is grasping at straws, and his feelings were hurt when I scolded them about leaking my work I did as a CIA” (nonofficial cover officer — the most dangerous of intelligence work).

Scuff for brains
Needs to be tar and feathered
Then locked in a small cell in max land with Brutus
Looks like Schiff did exactly that, outed Erik Prince as a c I a guy.
Note to the Communist Regressives:
* Trump won.
* Hillary lost.
* Trump has good ideas.
* Hillary has bad ideas.
* Trump is not an angel.
* Hillary is evil.
* Trump is a billionaire captain of business.
* Hillary is a career criminal.
* Hillary paid millions to create false information about Trump.
* Obama used Hillary’s false information as a pretext to illegally spy on Trump.
* Trump will win reelection in 2020.
Deal with it, Commie Reg a-holes.
Schiff and Prince in a back alley. End of story and a nutcase.
Why setup a back channel after Trump won? This is as ludicrous an accusation as the Russian troll farm buying campaign ads after the election.
And why would there be a NEED to set up a back channel if Trump was in collusion with Russia for years?
A World of Advice for Obama on Foreign Policy (By HELENE COOPERNOV. 13, 2008 )
There is a world of advice out there for President-elect Barack Obama. Within minutes of his election, the calls from foreign governments began, Obama aides said, and they have not stopped.
While the first telephone exchanges between Mr. Obama and foreign leaders were limited to pledges of future cooperation and invitations to visit, those leaders and their aides have also been contacting Mr. Obama’s advisers and their surrogates with suggestions on how an Obama administration should conduct, and change, American foreign policy.
The foreign efforts to sway the new team are normal during any presidential transition, but they are accelerated in this case, foreign policy experts say, because of the historic nature of Mr. Obama’s election and the significantly different course that world leaders expect him to pursue in American foreign policy.
The Russians want him to hold off on the installation of a missile defense shield in Poland. The Europeans want him to renounce the idea of “regime change” when it comes to Iran, while the Israelis want to be sure he does not give Iran a pass when it comes to nuclear weapons.
Oh, and let’s not forget the Taliban, which issued a statement this week urging him to “put an end to all the policies being followed by his Opposition Party, the Republicans, and pull out U.S. troops from Afghanistan and Iraq.”
The continued art of grasping straws by the Dems and Mueller.
That isn't illegal! He should just say so what if I did? TRUMP was already President Elect!!!
Can I get that on pay per view?
Democrats want us to believe Prince did something illegal.
And private citizens conducting foreign policy isn’t all that unusual and the Logan Act is of dubious constitutionality.
If talking to Russians is collusion, then we should never have back channel contacts to any one.
Schiff is a certifiable idiot.
” The Russians want him to hold off on the installation of a missile defense shield in Poland. The Europeans want him to renounce the idea of “regime change” when it comes to Iran, while the Israelis want to be sure he does not give Iran a pass when it comes to nuclear weapons.

Leftist “logic” : accuse Trump of colluding with a foreign power while crying armageddon because Trump wants to boot illegals out the country, gets out of the globalist scam called Paris accord, slaps cheating countries with tariffs.
He is only allowed to exist because of the support of a certifiable basket of idiots.
Back channel like soetoro had with Iran and lied to Congress and the American people about? Like that?
Instead of asterisks, you can make a bullet point with Option-8.
It’s a little harder on moblie devices. On my iPad, press and hold the hyphen key, then select the bullet.
I have no doubt that Prince “has ties” to the CIA. Read his book(s). If he is a “CIA guy” is a question. I know more than a few that served with or worked for him. Guy has always been off center.
Exactly. The Seychelles meeting was in January 2017. Trump had already wan and was within weeks of taking office. There was no urgency for back channels.
CNN and Libs are grasping for straws.
Mueller and his satanic group of Dems just want to RUIN EVERYONE near TRUMP!! Bankruptcy is their goal if they can't get Trump supporters into PRISON!!
