OK, the report is now fully in major media. Media must get an extensive White House response; Congress must investigate (even if it's a minority report); DOJ and the FBI must investigate; the CIA must issue a report on what it knew about this and when.

No one will care.
48 hours from now, we're onto something else.
But, I agree with you.
Byline is well worth a follow if you've not come across them before. Independent reporting, well-sourced and unafraid to say what we need to hear.

All that sci-fi is too real today.

It seems unlikely that Congress will take any meaningful action. Unfortunately, it feels like this country is starting to resemble the one I left behind to come here.
Freedom isn't free.

And hmmmmmmm
Plenty of mimes are asking too
In silence of agreement jestures
I’m open to reviewing evidence to the contrary, but that is my take.
Krasnov is one of the codenames found in documents exfiltrated from the KGB archive by Mitrokhin in the 1990's
“One of the directorate’s primary objectives, he claimed, was “recruiting businessmen from capitalist countries.” According to Mussayev, Trump, then a 40-year-old New York real estate developer, was one of those recruits. “
Who's making money pulling this out now...
Guess I've been napping without my Reynolds wrap! :(. Sigh 😔

The file shows Sapir was under FBI investigation for links to organized crime .

I’m still pearl clutching his “official acts” carte blanche crap he’s already flexing 😑

Didn't you just watch as Trump and his Nazi Storm Troopers just RAPED the RULE OF LAW, took control of the Government and fucked America. You expect any kind of investigation into any fucking thing these assholes perpetrate? If so you're as senile as Joe Biden..seek help!
DOJ, FBI and CIA as institutions absolutely won't investigate. You know it and I know it.
However, there may be some heroes who worked there at some point who could tell the story.
Literally no time at all.
Hence the dizzying speed of the unscheduled disassembly of democracy:
they think that their blitzkrieg will cower everyone into compliance.
Mitch McConnell
all the Republicans that went to Russia
I find it completely impossible that no one in the DOJ wasn’t already aware.
It’s kind of funny how everyone’s reaction is like ‘sounds about right.’ Partially for that reason, trump people aren’t even denying it with any intensity. If this was anyone else it would cause an earthquake and his allies would be denying vehemently.
DoJ:
FBI:
CIA:
Congress:
Media:
The FBI/Patel and Ratcliffe CIA.
I wish for a miracle.
A whistle blower.
This is the kind of existential threat you have to fight with full American military firepower.
Now it’s on us the people. Massive failure of government. Literally allowed a Russian asset to go unchecked.
We have it in our hearts.
We can do it!

They want to hear from you 😆
Adding this fab art !! 🐍

But spread the ‘news’ we all already expected.
It's possible that Putin himself arranged for this leak as a threat to Trump to ensure he keeps the pressure on Ukraine.
So if its true, then the intelligence services have known even longer.
Great report! 👍
He’s too fucking stupid to be a spy!!!!
So really no huge revelation, but a timely reminder

But it would be great if somebody would actually TRY TO MAKE SOMETHING STICK!!!
And name another “business man” that would so quickly sell out his country.
Congress could’ve started investigating, even it had been a minority report, at least 4 years ago.

We all need to respond to everything Trump says with
"OK, Krasnov."
Even people who were always allies or flip floppers
He’s insulted / praised Korea’s Kim, China’s Xi, even his current toadie Musk.
But Putin? Never a bad word
Putin is evil. How much did he pay all the republicans too?
If the CIA didn’t know then they were incompetent.
We are the undercurrent gaining strength to engage in and support whatever they have in the works.
We will look back and say
Aaah, I see now✨
