Marine Le Pen sighted at Trump Tower, looks like PEETUS is set on expanding his stellar collection of friends.

Standard procedure.  All Russian agents physically present in the northeastern US use the secure drop in the Tower to pick up their instructions.

I don't doubt Trump Tower is the new USSR ambassy in America but Marine's not a soviet spy.

Didn't know that.

At the very least she's a useful idiot. Kind of like the FPÖ in Austria. Russia is good at playing to their vanity and making them feel more important than they currently are (though that may change with next elections).

Hey those oil prices are pretty brutal. They have to use those democracy-destabilizing monies strategically.

We really need a 2010s edition of Twilight Struggle.

Show of hands-- who posted this fake news on Facebook?  And didn't Zuckerberg say he was gonna protect us against this stuff?

Oh, NOW you care about it? None of this is fake news, by the way. The networks and newspapers are reporting on a memo from a private investigation firm. CNN isn't leading the nightly news with "TRUMP PEES ON RUSSIAN WHORES, WE HAVE PROOF!"

You don't expect Trumpeters to be able to distinguish fake news from real news about dubious claims, do you?  they have Trumpfacts(tm).
