The Russia-Trump scandal just keeps expanding. Its just a matter of time until we find out if there was collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign, or more likely an unwitting accomplice from his inner circle who was outsmarted by the Kremlin experts. <\/p>\n
Keep in mind that there is way more to the story that cannot be released until the investigation is completed. <\/p>\n

I think this is evidence ofRussian hacking. Trump supporters cant deny it anymore. This woman was wrong in revealing classified information, but it does support what all intelligence communities were already saying. <\/p>\n

There could be 20 sources, each with individual videos with perfect audio of President Trump accepting an open briefcase of cash from Russian President Vladimir Putin himself, and it wouldnt matter anyway. Trump supporters wouldnt care. Nice job, America. <\/p>\n

Dont you just love the liberals who are still in meltdown mode after all of these months? What are they going to do after they strike out on Thursday during James Comeys testimony? It will be yet another disappointment, just like: Nov. 8, the recount that Green Party candidate Jill Stein requested, the attempt to sway Electoral College voters, etc. Liberals are running out of ideas. <\/p>\n
This is no smoking gun. <\/p>\n

Not releasing that Russia tried to hack into our presidential election should be the crime, not the other way around! How backwards and Soviet-like have we become? <\/p>\n
This not only undermines our faith in government, it also undermines our elections by not telling us about it.Thats the crime! <\/p>\n

Couldnt this woman be considered a whistle-blower? <\/p>\n
@uhlmary1 <\/p>\n
This doesnt change the Trump-Russia investigation. <\/p>\n
@GDT0429 <\/p>\n
Im sure President Trump would have preferred to bury this information deep. She sounds like a hero. <\/p>\n
@nedrow_aj <\/p>\n
So whats the maximum sentence if shes found guilty? I hope she gets the book thrown at her. <\/p>\n
@lemonbar4948 <\/p>\n
If she hadnt leaked this information, it would likely have been covered up by the government. I wouldnt be surprised if the whole thing isnt deeper. <\/p>\n
