In the biggest news of the day, Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin
huddled with one adviser each and one interpreter each. In Trump’s case,
he brought along Secretary of Big Oil Deals Rex Tillerson. Putin’s

We are talking about the safety and security of the elections in the United States of America being disrupted by our biggest political foe and Trump says, no biggie and then goes on to tell Putin he believes the media is hyping the story? Outrageous. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Meanwhile, former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper was a guest on CNN Thursday and he is sounding the alarm, saying plainly the 2016 hacking was “prepping the battlefield” for 2018.
Meanwhile, we’ve learned that not only did Donald Trump not rebuke Putin and Russia for their hacking of U.S. voter databases, the DNC and at least a dozen U.S. power plants, including a nuclear facility in Kansas, Trump promised to set it up a mutual cybersecurity group.
Together. As in, sharing cybersecurity information with the Russians. This cannot happen. It is complete incompetence, dereliction of duty.
