WikiLeaks announced Friday it is prepared to pay $100,000 for any tapes of conversations between President Donald Trump and former FBI Director James Comey. The message was sent out from its Twitter account just hours after Trump sent out his own tweet apparently warning Comey not to leak information to the media because of tapes he has of their meetings.
Update: U.S. lawmakers ask Trump to turn over any Comey tapes. Background on Comey's firing.

Since the goal of the Russians is to destabilize the US they probably would happily have this story played. The whole idea is to undermine the confidence of the US, throw us into internal turmoil the same way we've done so to other countries. They are just thumbing their noses at us right now and happily skipping along to see how far Trump can get before we put on the brakes.
They want Democracy dead, but little do they know this is more likely to improve democracy in the US as a massive percentage of the population cries for a repeal of the electoral college and the implementation of a better voting system.
