Trolls beware, the US just indicted a bunch of Russians for trolling Americans on social media.

Sorry, I'm a little confused. Did people think this was supposed to be a major deal? Its release on a Friday would argue otherwise, no?

I doubt that this is the apex of the Mueller investigation. I think this is just one of those "by the way" products of a thorough investigation--miscellaneous things turn up.

Our main adversary in the international stage meddled into our presidential election, supporting one candidate that incidentally won the election.

You're right, not a big deal at all.

Our main adversary in the international stage

think bigger, small hands man

Thank goodness we have rojo to let us know all the latest spin from Hannity, Limbaugh, etc.

What a tool..

LRC is too busy infringeing copywrite to care about Russia meddling.

I am truly embarrassed. I believed and and posted many of the Russian lies.

How could I be so stupid. I thought Hillary was deathly ill, I believed in Pizza gate.

I just feel used by the Russians and stupid.

Psst. Psst. Hey idiot- we don’t believe anyone influenced the election.

I see, you think we should only do something about it after someone succeeds.

Follow the money trail - glad to don jr to manafort to clay and then to Robert who pads DiscoGary's bank account. There's definite collusion going on. You bet!

Almost all of the counts of the indictment are related to Identity Theft. There is one count of the indictment the relates to trolling the election and not reporting properly to the FEC. Much more concerning would be election fraud in the Democratic primary and weaponizing government spying for political reasons during the election.

This is alarming. If Russians are getting drivers licenses then they for sure will be able to register to vote. We must get voter id immediately to prevent Russians from stealing our next election.

I have to hand it to you, Rojo: every time I think your political commentary couldn't *possibly* get any f***ing stupider,...

you manage to outdo yourself.

It's really an amazing talent you have.

You should really do yourself a great favor and just decline to speak from now on.

Express an occasional view on running, if you must, but save yourself from the humiliation you call down whenever you speak about *anything* else.

Seriously, Man, do the smart thing: just stay silent. Obviously better for the rest of the world, but also much, *much* better for you yourself.

Я тоже. Очень неловкое положение.

We are indicting people for screwing around on facebook?

Does freedom of speech not apply to non-citizens even though we give all sorts of benefits to non-citizens like free public school?

Let's hope trolling on letsrun.com by foreign nationals isn't indictable.

The smarter brother, I've noticed, is admirably silent on this thread.

He's not quiet, he's rolling on the floor laughing at this.

You should be ashamed that our legal system has become a farce.

I'm glad that some speech is more protected than others.

Mueller is a known Deep State clown. The book Three Felonies a Day talks about his record of inventing crimes out of thin air.

It probably is AND if the owner of a website knows it ( or should know it) he could be indicted either as a co-conspirator or aiding and abetting a crime. I would not be surprised at all if this place is getting hit with Russian propaganda.

This is why I love rojo.

You mean writing and posting stuff constitute crimes? Move to Europe.

If that is the case, I'd be careful of who you refer to as an idiot.

Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s prosecutors hit Trump’s former campaign Chairman Paul Manafort with new allegations of bank fraud on Friday.

Robert Mueller’s team is now focusing on Manafort’s real estate transactions and alleged mortgage fraud.

These are separate allegations from Manafort’s October charges of money laundering and failure to file a FARA form.
