    Default Any Thoughts?

    I have no opinion. It's Hotair, mostly a site that isn't against the administration. It describes itself as being 'conservative' but maybe not:

    That, and also the information about this donation to Hillary for $400,000. This stuff is most certainly worth looking into!

    Should we 'turn over' US diplomats, for Russia to investigate? If so, do we stop honoring diplomatic immunity to theirs?

    What sanders and trump said are possible or on the table and what will happen are probably two different things.

    IMO, of course diplomatic immunity stays as is. But if they want to work on sharing information, I have zero issue with that. But the article is all over the place in talking about sharing information all the way to turning folks over. NO to turning anyone over.

    I wouldn't mind in sitting down and sharing information though, a fact finding mission of sorts.

    Handing anyone over? absolutely not.

    No handing over of anyone will be taking place. But I wouldn't mind a goal of a sit down of some sorts, find out "facts" about Browder and this donation stuff. I am unsure how we can help them in return, if information will somehow help them with anything within their borders. But this I would see as informational meeting only. Immunity stays, and I see no reason to be handing anyone over.

    Should Russia hand over the 12 Russians to the US that Mueller indicted?

    They clarified fairly quickly after the statement that it was $400,000 and not the former. It was several sources, but here is just one:

    On Tuesday, government officials in Moscow said he meant $400,000, not $400 million.

    That's a real tough question there. I don't like this investigation any more than you do, and I think it's turned into a witch hunt based on what it's original intent was. But if we are only asking for information about Browder, then that's all they should expect to get in return, is information. This might be unacceptable to them? I don't know. But SHOULD they hand them over? I'd have to see the totality of the evidence against them. But would we hand over 12 citizens to Iran? to Russia even? doubtful.

    It's really pointless to even ponder the question. No way is either nation going to hand over anyone that has anything to do with this farcical Russian collusion probe. The Russians know dang well it's a farce since they're the ones that helped concoct the fake dossier. If any nation did deserve to have it's people interrogated, it would be Russia though.

    But Putin isn't going to play games with Mueller.

    Default Dumb idea, and shouldn't happen. IMO

    Our president, or Secretary of State....DISCLOSING conversations behind closed doors is absolutely...DUMB.

    The ramifications of doing so would instantly be....Nobody would ever trust us to remain confidential, or secret..EVER AGAIN.

    Much like Confidential Informants for the Police. Disclosing their names, with what they told the police would end ALL SOURCES of information, not to mention, making the safety of the Informant dangerously in peril.
    Think about it this way. Democrats DEMAND we get rid of ALL CLASSIFIED information markings, and just advertise all of our private, secrets on the INTERNET to the entire World.

    Even YOUR NAME, SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER, LICENSE NUMBER, FINANCIAL, AND MEDICAL RECORDS TO ....ANYONE WHO WANTS THEM!

    Would you like that?????
