"Six Russian diplomats have died since November, in addition to an aide to a former deputy prime minister. All but one died on foreign soil. Some were shot, while other causes of death are unknown. Note that a few deaths have been labeled "heart attacks" or "brief illnesses." Here's what you need to know:
1.You probably remember Russia's Ambassador to Turkey, Andrei Karlov — he was assassinated by a police officer at a photo exhibit in Ankara on December 19.
2.On the same day, another diplomat, Peter Polshikov, was shot dead in his Moscow apartment. The gun was found under the bathroom sink but the circumstances of the death were under investigation. Polshikov served as a senior figure in the Latin American department of the Foreign Ministry.
3.Russia's Ambassador to the United Nations, Vitaly Churkin, died in New York this past week. Churkin was rushed to the hospital from his office at Russia's UN mission. Initial reports said he suffered a heart attack, and the medical examiner is investigating the death, according to CBS.
4.Russia's Ambassador to India, Alexander Kadakin, died after a "brief illness" January 27, which The Hindu said he had been suffering from for a few weeks.
5.Russian Consul in Athens, Greece, Andrei Malanin, was found dead in his apartment January 9. A Greek police official said there was "no evidence of a break-in." But Malanin lived on a heavily guarded street. The cause of death needed further investigation, per an AFP report. Malanin served during a time of easing relations between Greece and Russia when Greece was increasingly critiqued by the EU and NATO.
6.On the morning of U.S. Election Day, Russian diplomat Sergei Krivov was found unconscious at the Russian Consulate in New York and died on the scene. Initial reports said Krivov fell from the roof and had blunt force injuries, but Russian officials said he died from a heart attack. BuzzFeed reports Krivov may have been a Consular Duty Commander, which would have put him in charge of preventing sabotage or espionage.
7.Ex-KGB chief Oleg Erovinkin, who was suspected of helping draft the Trump dossier, was found dead in the back of his car December 26, according to The Telegraph. Erovinkin also was an aide to former deputy prime minister Igor Sechin, who now heads up state-owned Rosneft.
Trump is like a kamikaze pilot. His Presidency has a purpose and that is to destroy this government. If some of the parts of his plane get shot off before he hits the target that's all just part of the plan.
I know they're are cheerleaders for this attack of his. They are the terrorists within that are determined to wreck this country and right now they are all pretty strong and on point in their efforts.
I haven't seen the country in this good of shape in over 8 years...............
Since Trump has only had about six weeks ... Thanks Obama

"A new poll from Quinnipiac University suggests that while people may be broadly unhappy with the mainstream media, they still think it's more credible than Trump. The president regularly accuses the press of “fake news,” but people see more “fake news” coming out of his own mouth.
The poll asked who registered voters “trust more to tell you the truth about important issues.” A majority — 52 percent — picked the media. Just 37 percent picked Trump."

Frequently cited by journalists, public officials and researchers, the independent Quinnipiac University Poll regularly surveys residents in Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Iowa, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and nationwide about political races, state and national elections, and issues of public concern, such as schools, taxes, transportation, municipal services and the environment.
Known for its exactness and thoroughness, the Quinnipiac poll is featured regularly in The New York Times, The Washington Post, USA Today, The Wall Street Journal and on national network news broadcasts. In 2010, respected public opinion polling analyst Nate Silver ranked the Quinnipiac University poll as most accurate among major polls conducting surveys in two states or more. The Quinnipiac poll was also called "the standout performer" by City and State for the most accurate prediction in the Democratic primary for New York City mayor in 2013.
The Asbury Park Press wrote, "The Quinnipiac University Poll is considered the gold standard in the business, frequently lauded by USA Today and other national media organizations for its information and accuracy."
For a typical public opinion survey, a randomly selected sample of about 1,000 registered voters age 18 and over is interviewed over five or six days. The polls are conducted at the Polling Institute on West Woods Road, close to the Mount Carmel and York Hill Campuses.
The Quinnipiac University Poll can be contacted at 203-582-5201 or by email.
Part of the problem is that polls also said Trump wasn't going to win , so out of 1000 people really!!!!!!!!! Sam
The fact is we, being Aliens, can't vote But when you have Governmental people ( the players- Debbie, Donna, Huma, Hillary) and a media pulling for one side, who you r going to trust? I guess the American voter!!! Uncle Sammy

One sign of that is a very robust growth in our stock markets. Records every day. The Fed is talking about raising interest rates after more than 8 years of non growth. Friday, March 03, 2017
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday shows that 53% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Forty-seven percent (47%) disapprove.
The latest figures include 37% who Strongly Approve of the way Trump is performing and 36% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of +1

You should have voted in the recent US election anyway...You had President Obama's encouragement and support to vote illegally, with a promise you wouldn't be punished if caught............

It's the Trump bubble, just like the Bushey Housing bubble that burst in 2008!
Since Trump's supporters place ideology before reality they don't really care about the truth. So the opinions of the press are virtually meaningless and irrelevant to them. This is also why Trump frequently attacks the press, because he wishes to reduce its relevance and importance, simply because he can't control it.

True but the Trump show is also eroding from within:
The GOP's protective wall around Trump is beginning to crumble https://wpo.st/eEqe2
Al-Qaeda likes Steve Bannon so much, they put him on the cover of their official newspaper https://wpo.st/cREf2

"The White House press secretary has called for further investigations into activity prior to the 2016 election and has said neither President Trump nor the White House will comment further."

Truth matters, not a support of either side, one reason party politics is useless........
The idea of change was more important to voters, and draining that swamp...... Voter remorse OR it's like buyer beware!!!
Being independent , we're told we're sitting on the fence or we go which way the wind blows....... Not true!!!!
You have the constitution, you have three bodies of Government.......
Place the Right system within this Government WITHOUT party politics. Trump is trying to make it work , his way, but is going to have a rough ride.....
Some people don't want change , and now Russia is involved . The Mess is just getting messier!!! And this is what happens , when you try to make changes........ It happens in most JOBS, where you have a new coach or a new boss! Sam
"James Comey, who remained FBI director after Trump's election, urged the Justice Dept. to publicly counter claims that President Obama ordered the tapping of Trump's phone last year. The wiretapping claims, which are unsubstantiated, may imply that the FBI broke the law."
