    I know when I want real news I check 4chan for coverage. With its p*rn gifs, anime discussions, and /b/ where child p*rn gets posted for shock value. It is truly the beacon of honest news coverage I know RocketsLegends can count on. Good find man. You're doing comrade's work son!

    Isn't it sad that 4chan is more credible than mainstream media but I guess this is the world we live in now.

    RocketsLegend continues to make a bigger fool out of himself. Posting an anonymous 4chan post and saying that it's the news LMAO. You do realize that anybody (including me) could make stuff up and post it there right?

    I don't know if Trump being impeached has a 0-5% or 80-90%

    I want to know though if it does happen what are you going to say?

    You are right... the question of integrity... 4 Chan vs The Trump White House. On one hand you have something known for false reporting, lies, obfuscation, and even sexual misconduct. On the other hand, you have 4Chan. Hmm... that is a very tough decision.

    On a more serious note, you have Trump and the White House upset that the press is now reporting on this previously hidden meeting between Trump and Putin. They are attempting to position this as "fake news" and spinning this as a casual and almost chance interaction that is well within the duties of the President.

    But the meeting itself isn't as much of an issue as the fact that the White House didn't report on it after it happened, and the lack of a intepretor or any other way to document what was said., And the fact the meeting took almost an hour... certainly not a casual, polite and random "gee, you are Putin aren't you" interaction the White House is attempting to spin it. As with so much involving Trump, his people, and Russia... it is secretive, and untruths circle around it.

    The big deal that nobody should be okay with is the fact that Trump has nobody there to validate what was said in the meeting to avoid blackmail and Putin making whatever they talked about in his own narrative. It could really push Trump in a difficult spot and it's a total KGB type of thing for Putin to pull.

    There should be nobody here that thinks that second meeting is a good idea under those circumstances.

    But Anonymous 4Chan poster RussianLegend I'm sure is okay with it.

    I am almost certain There is collusion between this administration and the Russians, the only question is can it be proven.

    They had a brief discussion at a dinner that was attended by every leader and their spouse. There were more people in the room than just Trump and Putin.
