As we had discussed, I undertook a sortie deep into the Red Sector during daylight, for to acquire solar LEDs string lights for the new protest sign. Despite my freak flag flying and our suspiciously fuel-efficient vehicle,
...festooned as it is with the "PISS OFF PUTIN - VOTE DEMOCRATIC" magnetic bumper sticker of the @HarleyRouda Campaign, I have returned unscathed, and our vehicle showing no obvious signs of bullet holes or other Red Hat vandalism.
I even managed polite interaction with the shopkeepers, who were clearly relieved to discover I speak with a slight twang and so at least I was unlikely to be MS-13. Just hairy.
The solar LEDs are now in the sun to charge.
A run for beer and tonic water shall be necessary but will not require I leave the Blue Sector. Dinner shall be a salad, and ribs cooked slowly over the fire in the manner of your St. Louis forebears.
I and the rest of the household anxiously await your return at the end of your shift at the chipping mill.
Faithfully and forever yours, @webradius
Following up on a post from earlier in the week, I took another look at well-connected now-arrested Kremlin agent Maria Butina's well-connected Facebook friends. aktivnyye.com/t/20180915-but…
Persistent themes include ties to GRU assets, appearances on the News Front disinfo channel, ties to Dugin and the Eurasian movement, and ties to Kremlin subversion in the West, in addition to ties to people close to Putin.
@page88 Okay, I finally found time to listen to the podcast. As your guest said, it's certainly possible Trump was a CHS, which is pretty much what I say too. So that's validating (for me). But that doesn't get us any closer to knowing if, in fact, people covered for Trump.
My own knowledge and experience with the CHS system is that it can be abused. It would take two agents and perhaps a Special Agent in Charge who at a minimum was willing to not look to closely.
The person at an FBI office most likely to notice something weird would be the accountant, and if Trump as a CHS was not being paid anything, that would take the accountant out of the picture.
