‘That’s When You Hang Up And Call The FBI’: Asha Rangappa On Trump Jr.

As we've noted on a couple of different occasions this year, former FBI counterintelligence agent and current Associate Dean at Yale, Asha Rangappa is pretty damn smart. And as we've also been keen to mention, her resume is better than yours (and ours). So generally speaking, it's worth listening to what she has to say. Incidentally, Asha is also a great follow on Twitter and generally a super fun person. https://twitter.com/AshaRangappa_/status/884392327145553920 https://twitter.com/heis

    1. I observe that when people talk about failings, whether it’s personal standards or other kinds of shortcomings, they rarely talk about their own failings. Have you ever noticed that?

  1. For the love of God and retarded stupidity: NOT ONE VOTE WAS CHANGED. Did I stutter? NOTHING was manipulated. NOTHING was interfered. Name ONE THING that happened in the 2016 election. Were voter lists used to block traffic and impede Democrats’ ability to reach the polls? Were Democratic voters poisoned? Were ballots phonied? Were ballots destroyed? WHAT, THEN??

    You, the foaming-at-the-mouth mob are MENTALLY RETARDED. Sadly, it’s not just you sheep festering on the dying gasps of the desperate-for-relevancy MSM. It’s the misguided lunacy of the vitally important intelligence agencies too (if Comey is to be believed). Look, you guys, who I and everyone rely on to protect us: WHAT got manipulated? WHAT got interfered?

    You agencies need to get your heads out of your asses and start prosecuting actual criminals such as those who obstruct FBI investigations and destroy evidence. While you are jacking off to this witch hunt, real criminals watch gleefully.

    1. You’re correct, there is no evidence that votes were changed.

      However, that’s not the only way to influence the outcomes of elections. Our host can certainly attest to the pervasiveness of the Russian propaganda that is pushed by right wing media outlets and the impact that it can have on the political discourse. Certainly, the micro targeting of voters using social media was influential and may have been aided by stolen voter rolls. The hacking, and publication of emails clearly impacted outcomes. There was also some, as of yet unexplained, purging of voter rolls in a number of states during the primaries. All of those things appear to have been made possible due to assistance from the Russian government.

      There’s no doubt that Hillary Clinton was not a candidate who created a lot of excitement, and she didn’t get the democratic base to the polls. She deserves a significant amount of the credit for her loss. Nonetheless, Donald Trump’s victory has Putin’s fingerprints all over it.

    1. One. One. Did I stutter? ONE.

      I thought so.

      R E T (see you soon!) – A R D (why? because we like you!) – M O U S E 🙂

  2. Don’t freak out here until Trump fires his special prosecutor. Although Ted Cruise maybe takes over investigating at that point lol.
