State Department keeps quiet as Pompeo meets Lavrov in Munich
Russian officials publicize meeting that US side did not mention.

MUNICH — U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo met Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on the sidelines of the Munich Security Conference on Friday in an encounter the American side apparently wanted to keep under wraps.
The State Department made no announcement of the meeting, which took place in Lavrov's own dedicated meeting room at the Hotel Bayerischer Hof, where the major annual conference of politicians, policymakers and security experts is held. Pompeo's aides also did not provide any readout after the meeting ended.
Russian journalists traveling with Lavrov were aware of the meeting in advance, and wrote about it afterward.
Lavrov's spokeswoman, Maria Zakharova, confirmed the meeting in a Facebook post, which included a photo of Pompeo in a hallway of the hotel, and Lavrov standing in a doorway a few steps behind him.
In the post, Zakharova wrote that Pompeo had said "good luck" to those gathered in the hallway, and cheekily added that those who heard it "gasped."
"There are few to whom Americans now wish something good," she wrote.
Asked about the meeting by POLITICO, a State Department official confirmed that there had been a “pull aside” with Lavrov but gave no further details. The official denied that the State Department asked Russia not to publicize the meeting and said it did not normally issue readouts of "pull asides."
There was no mention of the meeting in a briefing by a senior administration official about U.S. efforts at the security conference. The official said Pompeo met with Masrour Barzani, prime minister of the Kurdistan region of Iraq, and that U.S. officials met with Israeli counterparts as well as with a senior EU foreign affairs official, Helga Schmid.
It was not immediately clear why the State Department did not disclose the meeting between Pompeo and his Russian counterpart in advance.
The secretary of state has had some tense interactions with journalists recently, including an*outburst at a National Public Radio reporter, Mary Louise Kelly, after Pompeo became angry at being asked questions about Ukraine in an interview. After that outburst, the State Department barred another NPR reporter from traveling on Pompeo's plane.
A Russian journalist traveling with Lavrov said the U.S. side had requested that there be no press conference or joint statements and that photographers not even be invited to take a picture of the two top diplomats shaking hands.

Trump has had several meetings with Putin with no one else in the room . He has announced his intention to bar anyone else in the government from monitoring his conversations with foreign leaders or their reps .

McConnell won't let election security bills be debated in Congress and refuses to advance a bipartisan bill making offers of foreign election help reportable.

Putin openly boasts about turning Trump.

U.S. officials have warned Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) that Russia is attempting to boost his prospects of winning the White House in 2020, sources familiar with the matter told the Washington Post.

President Donald Trump and Congressional lawmakers have also received briefings regarding the Kremlin’s efforts to help Sanders, reports the Post.

Yup sure, Putin wants Trump to win again, because he imposed more sanctions on Russia, aided Ukraine with weapons against him and is stomping on his dick in the middle east....keep an eye on Israeli Palestinian relations. Syrian withdrawal you say....only for the news and public consumption....we've still got eyes and ears on the ground.

The only people politically infected by Google ads are snowflakes.

You’re a god damn liar.

If you are in a state that has an open primary Trump does it need your vote so go get a Democrat ballot and pull a lever for Bernie the DNC hates Bernie so let's give him a little help and create a total nightmare scenario on the convention floor when they try and take the nomination away from Bernie with superdelegates

If Bernie keeps getting 20/25/30% of the vote in the rest of the chumps have to split up the rest Bernie will amass on insurmountable delegate count thereby guaranteeing him in theory the nomination but wait for the treachery

I've always loved Clint Eastwood, but I think the guy has gone senile... He is now backing Mike Bloomfuck! LOL

[confab]

I saw that too.. Clint says he's a "Libertarian"

Which really makes him sound stupid because you can't BE a "Libertarian" who supports a Big Gulp snatching, anti-gun, etc, etc, etc, Nanny Stater.

Perhaps he doesn't know what a Libertarian is?

The truth is the truth and facts are facts. Trump and his "administration" are having secret closed door meetings with Putin and his administration. Fact. Documented. Not disputed. The questions are why, what is being discussed and why is it being hidden ? He has lifted sanctions on Russian Oligarchs, given our bases in the middle east to Russian backed forces, withdrawn US support for NATO and withheld vital military support for Ukraine. He was aided in the election by the KGB, is married to a Russian and his fortune is a direct result of laundering Russian Mafia money. All facts, all documented, all known by anyone not drinking his coolaid.
