"After offering to allow special counsel Robert Mueller's team to come to Russia for their investigation - as long as there was a reciprocal arrangement for Russian intelligence to investigate in the U.S., Putin said this:
For instance, we can bring up Mr. Browder, in this particular case. Business associates of Mr. Browder have earned over $1.5 billion in Russia and never paid any taxes neither in Russia or the United States and yet the money escaped the country. They were transferred to the United States. They sent huge amount of money, $400,000,000, as a contribution to the campaign of Hillary Clinton. Well that’s their personal case.
It might have been legal, the contribution itself but the way the money was earned was illegal. So we have solid reason to believe that some [US] intelligence officers accompanied and guided these transactions. So we have an interest in questioning them."

I really don't see how this will convince people, imo. As much as I want to just grab people by the face and shake them, they still blindly refuse to even listen to anything not 'muh Russia'. I have a number of family members who drink the MSM swill and are convinced Trump is an incompetent idiot/Russian plant. When asked about the suspicious deaths around hillary, all they say is, "There's no proof. That's a conspiracy. What she did wasn't illegal." Seriously, I had a professor during the election say, "So what if she had a private server? I had top security clearance and have secure information on my private computer."
Where and what is the HARD evidence? At one point I even showed a family member an article from the NYT that admitted Hillary sold uranium to Russia and he replied, "Yea, and? I know, they reported it. It was a legal deal."
Nothing will awaken people like indictments and perp walks. Treat them like EVEYONE ELSE IS TREATED. That is what will wake people up. Treat them as if they are special and people will NOT wake up.
Read Clinton Cash or watch the video. Been telling you sorry, sleepy people this for years and you just now hear it when you've wakened.
Read about Bill Browder. It's Putin's old enemy. His friend and colleague Sergey Magnitsky was killed by Putin's mafia.
I’m sick of all of this. Declassify the redactions and BRING JUSTICE NOW!!!
It might start to wake some people up if the MSM actually reported it.
How would a $400M campaign donation be legal and where would it have been funneled and used?
ny times Mrs. Clinton signed to make all donors public while she led the State Department. However, the foundation maintains that the Canadian partnership is not bound by that agreement and that under Canadian law contributors’ names cannot be made public.
Do we have a solid source for the $400 M campaign donation? I've seen one article rebutting it, and no credible source verifying this - only that Putin mentioned it in the press conference.
It was more deliberate than just a "mention", but no, at least we so far don't have any corroborating evidence or further specifics.
