Any parent learns rather quickly the ability to know just when their child is hiding something.
Our collective Child in Charge and his underlings are transparent in this very same way.

Jared Kushner failed to disclose his role as a co-director of the Charles and Seryl Kushner Foundation from 2006 to 2015, a time when the group funded an Israeli settlement considered to be illegal under international law, on financial records he filed with the Office of Government Ethics earlier this year.
The latest development follows reports on Friday indicating the White House senior adviser attempted to sway a United Nations Security Council vote against an anti-settlement resolution passed just before Donald Trump took office, which condemned the structure of West Bank settlements. The failure to disclose his role in the foundation—at a time when he was being tasked with serving as the president’s Middle East peace envoy—follows a pattern of egregious omissions that would bar any other official from continuing to serve in the West Wing, experts and officials told Newsweek.

What is becoming more apparent to me is that interference was driven more by the desire for the ease of transfer of Russian wealth to western countries than by geopolitics.
Oligarchs carrying billions yearned for comfortable landings.

Getting rid of the Magnitsky Act and other economic sanctions against the oligarchs was indeed high on Putin's priority list and he knew that Trump and Co. would be the most helpful in achieving this end. It was, after all, topic #1 at the infamous Trump Tower meeting as well as in the Flynn/Kislyak conversation.

I never asked Comey to stop investigating Flynn. Just more Fake News covering another Comey lie!

Question is whom does Mueller believe, Trump or Comey? Of course, Flynn is a liar too. As long as Sarah believes him.

If not for the fake Russian dossier he would have won by a larger margin.

Actually, a great deal of your "fake" dossier has been confirmed.

It does not want to give up a salacious dossier even if all respectable organs give the document a big thumbs down.
