1. Are you kidding me? Does Trump know ANYBODY who doesn't have a Russian connection?

5. As far as that goes, Republicans and Russians don't have to like blacks, just so they like him for putting blacks down.

6. If I understand it correctly, the trip was paid by Russia's version of NRA
Or an NRA Russian chapter....it was all about guns at a time when sanctions were in place.
He's a perfect fit for this administration.
If 45 goes will his appointees be rooted out as well?
Notably, Clarke received a $40,000 trip to Israel and Russia funded largely by the National Rifle Association, earned $26,000 in speaking fees, locked up $22,500 in car services to shuttle to his various media appearances, took a plane flight valued at $9,000 to speak at an Idaho conference
RawProgressive.com is already out with their version of the truth:
We just learned that the NRA held meetings with a top Vladimir Putin aide in 2015.
That is disconcerting, to say the least.
Now we’re understanding that Sheriff David Clarke, a Donald Trump-supporting Republican, took a trip to Russia on behalf of the National Rifle Association.
Eyebrows have been raised.
Something doesn’t add up.
Check this out, via DB:
The National Rifle Association — one of Donald Trump’s strongest campaign backers — sent a delegation to Moscow in late 2015 to meet with a Vladimir Putin deputy who believes Alaska rightfully belongs to Russia.
Meeting with Dmitry Rogozin — head of Russia’s defense industry and a target of U.S. sanctions since Russia annexed Crimea in 2014 — would not have been illegal, as long as no business was conducted, but does raise new questions about Team Trump’s ties to the Kremlin, reported The Daily Beast.
…
The delegates mostly refused to tell The Daily Beast who paid for their trip, but one of them — Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke, a Fox News favorite and Trump supporter — was required to file public disclosure forms for his visit to Russia.
Clarke’s disclosure forms reported the December 2015 trip — which coincided with an anniversary event for RT attended by retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn and Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein — was partially paid for by a Russian group called The Right To Bear Arms.
Trump will never be able to live down his ties to Russia, nor should he.
Now more than ever we need to see his tax returns.
What is he hiding?
Another made up story to slime the President and anyone aoung him.
Politico is in full spin mode:
Clarke, a longtime supporter of President Donald Trump, has long been rumored as a possible candidate for a job in the administration and met with Trump in November at Trump Tower. He also spoke at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland last year.
He has come under fire in recent days amid revelations about the case of Terrill Thomas, who died of dehydration last year at the Milwaukee County Jail after guards turned off the water in his cell.
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, a Republican, has said he won’t remove Clarke from office over Thomas’ death.
Clarke also has faced criticism for participating in a National Rifle Association-backed trip to Russia in 2015, where he and other members of the group’s delegation reportedly met with Dmitry Rogozin, one of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s deputies. Rogozin was sanctioned by the U.S. government in 2014.
Clarke did not respond to requests for comment. A DHS spokesman declined to comment, as did a White House spokeswoman.

Sheriff Clark was meeting with top Russian officials to get the latest plans for the FEMA reeducation camps. They are based on the latest design used on the eastern frontier.
Rumor has it that the first busloads will be chosen from DU star members with a post count above 5,000. Special treatment will be given to those with post counts above 10,000.

And if you've played Tetris at any time in your life, then that makes you a Russian spy as well.
