    Obama knew about the Trump Tower meeting between Trump campaign officials and the Russian government operatives?

    You know this how?

    Oddly the Clintons didn't lie about meetings with Russians...while virtually everyone on the Trump team not only had meetings with all sorts of Russians (Trump's sons and son in law all the way down to the coffee boy Papadopoulos) and every one of them lied about those meetings...

    From article: "...according to two sources"

    More unnamed unidentified anonymous sources.

    Just more #fakenews.

    No, this isn't Breitbart. Not sure you need to stick your head in the sand as the questions aren't shocking. More than likely they are just comparing answers from multiple sources. Gates is a cooperating witness who has been caught lying and was definitely involved with the party platform change.

    In almost every case where unnamed sources have been used over the last 2 years...they have been shown to be accurate

    Meeting with foreign people is not a crime.

    Then why did they all lie about those meetings, that took place while those people were part of a government undermining our election?

    A. Money to the Clinton Foundation is not money to Clinton and oh yea...that was ten years ago.

    B. If Clinton is guilty of something...fine. Deal with it. That in no way absolves Trump of anything

    So far no one has proven he has done anything wrong either.

    Doesn't appear to be a problem at all provided you're precise about the timeline. Lying about the contact, not the content or intent is what sunk Flynn & Papadopoulos. Gates & Manafort have tax issues. Foreign lobbying isn't illegal ... hiding earnings and and failing to register under FARA is.

    Lied?

    Or made statements that didn't line up absolutely correctly?

    You know how easy it is for one to commit perjury even when trying to cooperate?

    Obama was aware of Manaforts Ukrainian ties in 2008. He was also aware of Carter Pages contact with Russian operatives in 2013, when he aided the FBI. Obama expelled Veselnitskaya for reasons unknown, but later granted a "special" visa that Natalia over stayed. Obame knew about Flynns "Iron Bridge" too. I know all this because I don't confine my research to leftist spin doctor media.

    Clearly you don't understand ethics that many news reporters have. It is the foundation of our Democracy. You really should research how the free press has made our country as great as it is, and your attack on it is particularly un-American.
