Trump associates may have coordinated with Russians, according to US officials

Yes, they asked Michael Daniel to stand down when he started pitching ideas to start a massive cyber war with Russia, in response to the detected election meddling.

Does this have something to do with the topic of child prostitutes?

Does the topic of child prostitutes in Russia somehow strike you as a conversation that needs to be avoided?

I actually started a thread for replies like these, even referencing you by name in the OP. Since this is a discussion regarding current events, you may wish to put your alt-history responses in the correct discussion. :slight_smile:

Owner of Bayrock, Tevfik Arif, was arrested for running a prostitution biz in Eastern Europe that included underage girls:

Acquitted, but I don’t know that I trust that a rich dude in Turkey will always go to jail.

I aplologize if this has already been brought up but doesn’t Mexico interfere in our elections 1000 more times than Russia could ever dream of?

No, I am not aware of any state sponsored cyber attacks on our electoral system by Mexico.

No, they don’t.

If you believe otherwise, feel free to present your evidence.

Nope. Did that have some relevance to the question of child prostitution?

An interesting number of “Look, it’s Superman!” style posts this morning.

No, the Mexican government only sends murderers and rapists. Those who only want to vote illegally don’t qualify.

Some dormant accounts suddenly came alive.

This is a racist talking point that Tucker Carlson has taken to promoting. Mexican immigrants vote. The implication that their say detracts from the “true” (white) election results.

Nice of Chip to out himself for us.

Sorry. I’ll let you people get back to your child prostitution conversation.

No. Where did you get this idea?

Cyber attacks on our electoral system = using bots on twitter. LOL, every country does that.

Are you silly enough to think that “cyber attacks on our electoral system” = Russian hackers hacked voting machines (which are not connected to the internet) and changed voting results? I certainly hope not.

With that said, of countries that influence our elections, Russia is most likely not even in the top 30. But if you want to get tough with Russia, go sign up for the military, because the elites desperately want a war with Putin for geo-political reasons that are too advanced for this board at this time.

One of Bayrock’s other partners, and investor in Trump SoHo, was the Eurasia Group, run by Alexander Mashkevich.

Mashy was one of the participating men in the yacht when Arif was arrested with the underage girls.

I feel like if I keep Googling, I’ll find another half dozen pedophiles among Trump’s business partners because, like, this isn’t hard to find new people yet.

Chip is a guy so smart he forgets to pay his rent. Pay him little mind.

You need to do better than this, comrade. The Americans are on to this stuff.

I’m only two months behind, John, and it’s not because I forgot. Sorry for hijacking Sages child porn thread. I’ll step away.

Yes. There is a lot on the web saying Obama told his chief cyber security person to stand down during Russia hack attempts. Yikes!

Why would Obama do this?

Funny how that order happened a couple weeks after Mitch McConnell decided to oppose Obama responding to the attacks… shame that Obama wanted the issue of getting back at Russia to have bipartisan support.

Good thing Trump ordered the NSA to respond to Russian attacks!

All three of your links appear to reference the same primary source. Why didn’t you just cite that instead?

Also, what, precisely, is the argument you are trying to make here? It seems that you are arguing that Trump need only act on the basis of what his predecessor did or didn’t do. Is that correct?
