"Jared Kushner and Russia's ambassador to Washington discussed the possibility of setting up a secret and secure communications channel between Trump's transition team and the Kremlin, using Russian diplomatic facilities in an apparent move to shield their pre-inauguration discussions from monitoring, according to U.S. officials briefed on intelligence reports.

Ambassador Sergey Kislyak reported to his superiors in Moscow that Kushner, son-in-law and confidant to then-President-elect Trump, made the proposal during a meeting on Dec. 1 or 2 at Trump Tower, according to intercepts of Russian communications that were reviewed by U.S. officials. Kislyak said Kushner suggested using Russian diplomatic facilities in the United States for the communications.

The meeting also was attended by Michael Flynn, Trump's first national security adviser.

The White House disclosed the meeting only in March, playing down its significance. But people familiar with the matter say the FBI now considers the encounter, as well as another meeting Kushner had with a Russian banker, to be of investigative interest."

Not that it matters, but are they even smart enough to know they might be committing treason?

Word from the intelligence community is Kushner and Trump are "cray cray amateurs." I the think the FBI has the whole enchilada. It's just a matter of legal time...

I think the Russians are lying here. That communication if it really happened went out on a channel that they knew was being monitored.

It is a cool double play really. Favor Trump in election propaganda and then undermine him once he wins.

Maybe the Russians sent it as a false flag knowing it would be intercepted by US intelligence?

Therefore when it is proven false, the spin people for comrade Trump (Faux and the like) will claim every US-Russia collusion is fake.

Proof will not matter as their supporters will claim it's all bogus, innocent by association.

I'm not sure the Russia stuff even matters when it comes to Trump and problems. He is so proficient at screwing things up, he can't help himself. Something will get him sooner....or later.

Foxnews is spinning it to say it wasn't his idea.

With that said, do any of you guys work anywhere that nepotism is allowed? I don't. I've asked around. 99 percent of companies don't allow it. You can work for the same company just not as a direct report. Especially federal government. Nepotism is not good in my opinion. I understand The Donald trust his kids, but I gotta question how he fires them if they screw up. Maybe Trump does fire his son-n-law. Who knows. Trump has been interesting president so far (as advertised).

I'm curious where this goes. I hope it is nothing. I do believe we need to normalize relations with Russia. However, the whole Ukraine thing is disturbing and they are kind of a dictatorship government.

Why right wingers are pro-russia is very odd. Their government is fascist. The State owns most businesses and resources. Don't allow free press, freedom of speech/religion, opposition is crushed if not murdered. Maybe that is all fake news, but I think Russia and USA are polar opposites on forms of government.

When does Comey testify?

Tune in next week as the world turns...

I say it's because the GOP of today has no cards left to play.

I just wonder when they will move to their next feasible position: still conservatives but with some workable social programs.
