I agree re timing. There are honest, patriotic people on that side. Certainly amongst the law people. Even Sessions seems patriotic and honest in a normal sort of way, even if his politics is disagreeable.

But it's not the same in the House Intelligence Committee. Looks pretty obviously Russian-owned.

As regards Trump and May, I presume they have talked and that he is letting her lead on the poisoning. She seems to have developed a decent relationship with him. So I am not yet perturbed by the silence. But we shall see.

One thing it has reminded everyone is that Putin is a very nasty character indeed. And we are going to need to get serious about protecting ourselves and pushing back against him. Nothing he says is ever true. He's like a 1930s throwback. We will need to reduce his access to the benefits of the free world if he creates adding costs. And we will need to rearm, because he has been and actually uses his military aggressively.

This is why I support Trump on one particular thing: getting NATO allies to increase their defence expenditure.

His timing for this rare interview is no coincidence.
He realizes we are teetering, and is doing his best to keep us from falling into the abyss.

By the way, if it wasn't for Rex Tillerson's condemnation of Russia, PM May would wonder if the US was still a strong ally.
Unbelievable, Trump still refuses to condemn Putin....

Rod Rosenstein, deputy attorney general, says Robert Mueller is 'not an unguided missile'
Kevin Johnson, USA TODAY Published 5:46 p.m. ET March 12, 2018 |

WASHINGTON — Despite unrelenting criticism from the White House on the course of the investigation into Russia's election interference, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein Monday offered unqualified support for special counsel Robert Mueller.

"The special counsel is not an unguided missile," Rosenstein said in an exclusive interview with USA TODAY. "I don't believe there is any justification at this point for terminating the special counsel."

Rosenstein's remarks are among the first to address Mueller's status since it was disclosed more than a month ago that President Trump sought to have the special counsel dismissed last summer. The president relented only when White House counsel Donald McGahn threatened to resign if forced to carry out the directive.
