But it is not a connection to the Trump campaign. It is a direct connection to the Clinton campaign!

I wonder why no major US News outlet is carrying this ?!??!

MOSCOW, March 9. /TASS/. Sberbank confirmed the fact of hiring the consultancy of Tony Podesta, the elder brother of John Podesta, who chaired Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign, for lobbying its interests in the United States, press service of the Russian credit institution told TASS on Thursday.
"The New York office of Sberbank CIB indeed hired Podesta Group. Engagement of external consultants is part of standard business practices for us," Sberbank said.
According to The Daily Caller, Tony Podesta was proactively lobbying for cancellation of a range of anti-Russian sanctions against the banking sector. In particular, he represented interests of Sberbank and was paid $170,000 for his efforts.

Maybe if Fox runs with this the others will be forced to eventually pick it up. Or at least all the conservative radio people. Talk about it til every one is wondering what is going on.

Anytime the dems complain about Rep behavior, I've found they're just projecting. Whether the Russians or racism-like munchausans (sp) for politics, but still a mental illness.

What was the date of his hiring? Didn't see it in the news article. Recently or last fall?

Almost 100% of the time, and once you keep this in mind, it makes understanding what they're really saying much easier.

It's like the preacher loudly condemning homosexuals from the pulpit and hanging out with male prostitutes at night.

Wait for the next Trump tweet that will offfer this info while turning the worthless media away from some other fake news issue they're chasing against the Trump administration. The master manipulator has this.

This won't be reported. If it does make the news it will be denied by the Clinton camp in an attempt to implicate a Trump/Putin connection fabricating this news.

Click the Daily Caller link in the article, the TASS is basically a small news tidbit based on the original article

007 spied on Trump. Was M in on it and approved or was it Daniel Craig?

Except I know how liberals will take this news: "Sure, Russia says they hired someone connected with the Clinton campaign. Why are we supposed to believe that when we all know Trump is in Putin's pocket."



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.
