New from me: Mueller’s report didn’t cover the counterintelligence side of the Trump-Russia scandal. But new filings in the Maria Butina case detail a secret Moscow influence scheme possibly related to all those Trump-Russia contacts. Please read & share:

Butina was not a spy in the traditional sense of trying to gain access to classified information to send back to her home country. She was not a trained intelligence officer. But the actions she took were nonetheless taken on behalf of [Torshin] for the benefit of the Russian Federation, and those actions had the potential to damage the national security of the United States.

It’s amateurs all the way down.
