A federal grand jury in Washington, DC has indicted 13 Russian nationals and a Kremlin-linked internet firm on charges that they had meddled in the 2016 presidential election.

The US government said Russian entities began interfering in US political processes, including the 2016 presidential election, as early as 2014, according to a court document.

[...] The charges – which include conspiracy, wire fraud, bank fraud and aggravated identity theft – are the most direct allegations to date of illegal Russian meddling in the election.

    Who's on the other side of this leader board? How many points does that translate to? 6 for a guilty plea and 3 for an indictment? 63 points so far?

    I didn't vote for a pussy-grabber so I don't really care what his team's score is. It will be a very long time before I throw my vote away on the D team again.

    If the D team couldn't even win against a pussy-grabber, if the D team couldn't even convince a majority of white women to vote against a pussy-grabber, their credibility is shot to hell. It's time to look at the Green Party [gp.org] for a political party with a progressive platform.

    Context is everything, young Pud-a-wan. Pussy-grabbing sounds so vulgar, yes? But, for the right man, for Prince Charming, women are happy to be grabbed. Go visit any meat locker in any city on a Saturday night. You'll find plenty of women trying to find the right man to grab them. They went to the meat market, looking for some meat, not for flowers.

    Speaking of flowers - why do women mutilate the genitalia of plants? Do they hate plants that much?

      The difference is *consent* moron.

      Are you familiar with that term?

        Consent? As in they (the women) just let you?

        "When you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything... Grab 'em by the pussy. You can do anything."
