Gaga Monster 13,001 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 The United Arab Emirates arranged a secret meeting in January between Blackwater founder Erik Prince (Betsy Devos's Brother) and a Russian close to President Vladimir Putin as part of an apparent effort to establish a back-channel line of communication between Moscow and President-elect Donald Trump, according to U.S., European and Arab officials. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/blackwater-founder-held-secret-seychelles-meeting-to-establish-trump-putin-back-channel/2017/04/03/95908a08-1648-11e7-ada0-1489b735b3a3_story.html?tid=a_breakingnews&utm_term=.cf0a0c4df4ee#comments GGD Presidential Elections Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJHolland 12,725 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Omg I legit logged on to post about this. Got the news alert when I was at the gym and I was shook with so many questions. Why is Betsy DeVos' brother going to the UAE to set up secret communications between Trump and the Kremlin/Putin?! Who gave him the order to do so?! Did he do it alone? Is this why the UAE isn't part of Trump's "travel" (Muslim) ban? And also, why the F*****CK is Betsy freaking DeVos Sec of Education?!?!?! This is honestly YUGE news Spoiler Seriously tho it's huge breaking news lol Edit: OK but like how on Earth could anyone believe there are NO shady ties between Putin and Russia???? Like this is too much to be a coincidence. 3 minutes ago, River said: Her name sounds like a stage name of an indie artist.. On topic, isn't it an old news?

Gaga Monster 13,001 Posted April 3, 2017 Author Share Posted April 3, 2017 Did they truly think they were going to get away with all of this. No wonder intelligence agencies collected information on his transition team, they are a mess. GGD Presidential Elections Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaga Monster 13,001 Posted April 3, 2017 Author Share Posted April 3, 2017 Prince was an avid supporter of Trump. After the Republican convention, he contributed $250,000 to Trump’s campaign, the national party and a pro-Trump super PAC led by GOP mega-donor Rebekah Mercer, records show. He has ties to people in Trump’s circle, including Stephen K. Bannon, now serving as the president’s chief strategist and senior counselor. Prince’s sister Betsy DeVos serves as education secretary in the Trump administration. And Prince was seen in the Trump transition offices in New York in December.

Damn this is sooo sketchy! And still so many questions that I hope will be answered in the coming days. Do we know if the server or back channel (idk how that works lol I'm not well-versed on cyber stuff) was ever established? If the channel was to communicate and influence Trump, wouldn't Trump have to know about it? All I can think is that this is gonna be the fastest impeachment ever lol.

Tbh I'm beyond glad that you've been able to put politics and party loyalty aside and look at this objectively. So much respect for people that are able to do that! So many Trump supporters will just believe what he says without any evidence or even against contradictory evidence. Scary world. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Envi 765 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Betsy and co. have been a devoted a major sponsor that funded Trump's campaign. This was definitely part of the 'deal'. Also, can't wait for Rachel Maddow to discuss and dig a little dipper about this. ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Betsy Devos brother contributed $250,000 to Trump and has ties to Bannon. Bannon is a real problem as well as Priebus and Ryan. He surrounds himself with dirty, corrupt people. I am extremely worried and concerned, we need to find more evidence so the impeachment hearings come ASAP. I feel much more comfortable with Pence running things, even though I don't agree with him on LGBT issues, but you can't win with everything I guess GGD Presidential Elections Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
