Is THIS the rumor Mueller has been following? Is this what started this investigation?
That people knew Russia offered Trump dirt on Hillary for money?
Another kerfuffle...
One way to know about a rumor like this is to be part of the group that tried to set up the sting.
Nothing came of it.
In any case, oppo research isn’t illegal.
Vicious dark sorcerer and all, these people need to stop taking drugs and get real jobs.
Big fat hairy deal.
The WaPo is so out of the closet.
No one worth a d*mn gives an Obama about them.
Agenda? WHAT agenda?
This is absolute proof that the Trump campaign colluded with the Russians.
OK. Got it.
This is it! Oh boy, I’m wetting my pants! We got Trump this time!!
Has Trump ever confirmed he’s close to Roger Stone or is that jut the fevered imagination of Stone and the Post?
Just asking because Stone is self-stroking nutcase.
But Hillary GOT fake dirt from a Russian to help her campaign.
So this guy was an FBI operative:
-- Between 2008 and 2012 Greenberg was permitted to enter the United States under a so-called “significant public benefit parole” and the documents list an FBI agent as a contact person.
-- Greenberg stated he worked as an informant for the US government for 17 years.
-- The FBI agent provocateur started by making a run at Caputo, then moved to Stone.
So which Russian oligarchs is this guy close to? The same ones that are close to the Clintons?
How unbelievably dirty. The FBI makes banana republics look like good in comparison.
And then cover it all up from victims, Congress and the public under the cover of "national security."
Jeff Sessions, you are a coward.
But for Gennady Vostretsov, an alleged conman accused of defrauding victims of millions of dollars on both sides of the Atlantic, the party seems to be over after almost 10 years on the run.Vostretsov, 42, was arrested in December and charged with defrauding a Krasnodar-based firm called C-Trade of $2.7 million in the early 1990s.

He has a long criminal record stretching back to the late 1970s. In 1979, he was imprisoned for a year for failing to pay alimony and for passport violations. In 1981, a court in the Volga River city of Tolyatti sentenced him to three years for illegal trading of goods. And in 1985, a Moscow court put him behind bars for five years for attempted large-scale fraud.

His subsequent movements are unclear, but investigators believe that he went to the United States on an immigration visa and lived there for more than five years.
Russia has not been sending its best.
The headline is designed to give the impression that it’s something bad. It should read: “Trump associate tells Russian to pound sand”.
Did he promise to be more “flexible”? Or have a re-set button? Would that have been okay?
So the real Wash Compost title should read:
FBI Failed to Entrap Candidate Trump by Employing Russian Con man- Vostretsov in 2016.
Wikileaks just tweeted out this helpful reminder, while the Deep State was trying to frame Trump by charging him $2M, they were trying also to frame Assange by offering to pay him $1M:

K Tovarishche Stone: Ya bud’yet provide “durrrt” on Hillary Cleentun for $1 million per gigabyte, with 5 gig minimum. Mebbe all eez the open source, but proves conclusive she vorst tsarina in history — like Stalin with smaller mustache. For extra million, I supply super secret Kremlin GIF of HRC collapsing on face after 9-11 Memorial and affect Badanov accent. Your confidential informant, Fyodor Borisovich Ilyanov.
“...the political dark sorcerer and longtime confidant of Donald Trump”
Oooooh, scary. Does he turn into a bat?
Bias much Washington Compost?
