Do you genuinely expect everyone on this forum to interview people in person in place of authoritative sources which quote named individuals, as well as holding down full-time jobs? Seriously Mick I respect your research skills, energy and loyalty to Trump but can you not see the utterly unreasonable nature of what you're suggesting?

This has nothing to do with Trump Loyalty, this is about BS in it's highest form yet, from the likes of you and Hugh over a non-story.

Please explain why it's a non-story.

It's non-story as it doesn't agree with Mick's narrow view of the world. Anything outside it is 'fake', and anyone who says otherwise is talking 'bs', 'bollocks' etc etc

Coming from you, this is hilarious.

Of course, you're wrong as always.

Let's focus on the quote below. On reflection do you not think that it is newsworthy?

Quote:

The Senate Intelligence Committee has asked a number of high-profile Trump campaign associates to hand over emails and other records of dealings with Russians as part of its investigation into Russian meddling in the presidential election and is prepared to subpoena those who refuse to cooperate, officials said.
The requests for the materials were made in letters sent by the committee in the past 10 days, said two officials with knowledge of the contents of the letters."

I'm not sure what the correct response to something being deemed fake or BS is. It suffocates the debate. On a positive note, I'm flattered to be placed in the same category as Hugh as he's far more knowledgeable in current affairs than me by a long mile.

Revelations about Flynn making the headlines. Trump has probably regretted not taking his predecessor's advice.

Quote:

Obama warned Trump about hiring Michael Flynn
Barack Obama warned newly elected President Donald Trump against hiring Michael Flynn as national security adviser, the White House has confirmed.
Mr Obama warned his successor less than 48 hours after the November election during a conversation in the Oval Office, former Obama officials said.
Mr Flynn's contacts with a Russian envoy left him vulnerable to blackmail, a Senate panel heard on Monday.
He was fired in February for concealing the nature of these contacts.
Mr Flynn, a retired army lieutenant-general, misled the Trump administration about discussing US sanctions against Russia with the country's envoy, Sergei Kislyak, before the inauguration.

Quote:

Michael Flynn was exposed to blackmail by the Russians, Sally Yates tells Senate
Michael Flynn was exposed to potential blackmail by Russia, the former deputy attorney general has testified.
Sally Yates told the Senate judiciary committee that Mr Flynn, the former national security adviser, had left himself "compromised" by having a conversation with the Russian ambassador, and then lying to the vice president, Mike Pence, about it.
She said that the Russians knew the conversation with Sergey Kislyak had taken place, but the White House did not - meaning that Mr Flynn could be "essentially blackmailed by the Russians."

Flynn's top level security clearance was issued under Obama. If he was so concerned, why didn't he revoke it?
