"...This indictment serves as a reminder that people are not always who they appear to be on the Internet," Rosenstein told reporters Friday. "The indictment alleges that the Russian conspirators want to promote discord in the United States and undermine public confidence in democracy. We must not allow them to succeed....”

What a joke. This is a FBI/ DOJ Disinformation Operation. If these Russians were Illegal Immigrants then they'd get a pass and free college tuition.

LTC (Join to see) - Considering everything and the distinctly rare possibility of those individuals ever being extradited to the US, makes that a possibility. Interesting but then the Russians will have someone else come to the US, along with the British that are already here AND colluding with the FBI, State Department, and other agencies, along with the Israelis and their supporters continue on their merry way.

We're not deaf yet, and most of us can read, if we care to. The Deputy AG said the same and it is implied and stated in the indictment.

Take aways:
"Democrats say the indictment puts to rest questions about whether Russian meddling is a 'hoax,' while Trump allies stress that it shows no new evidence of collusion with the Kremlin."

i.e. Duh, the Russians have been meddling in our elections. Not really news, but yes, this appears to be a specific IO campaign for this specific election. The fact they prefer Trump over Clinton hardly matters to me. Few on either side believed Russian meddling to be a hoax. We need to quit suggesting otherwise. Trump is also right in this case. Nothing here indicates collusion. Useful idiots do not equate to collision, nor is it necessarily illegal on the useful idiot's part. Let's not try to suggest that the useful idiots exist only in the Trump Admin either. Clinton had her share as well (to include herself when it came to protecting classified government information and official records).

Finally, another take away we can get here is a lesson to all who read and trust everything they find in their group speak circles on the Internet and even from the media (and there are plenty of you who post such things here... a lot). Do your due diligence to confirm the information before you choose to believe it (much less post it to others). My general rule, if it's too good (or bad) to be true, it deserves more research on your part to confirm it.
