WNU Editor: Some in the U.S. Congress want to probe into Russian President Putin's wealth .... Kremlin dismisses talk of possible U.S. move to probe Putin's wealth (Reuters). If Congress does investigate Putin's wealth, do not be surprised if we start seeing stories on the wealth of many in Congress.

Probe Trump's tax returns
Wtf is congress thinking? That guy (putin) is on his way out. When he's out of power and has no access to doomsday devices, and a strong thirst to expand Russia, then maybe do it. Now is crazy..it will help him to perhaps get reelected. And we all know how filthy corrupt our own people are, why investigate a foreign head of state? We already had two (!) Nuclear issues this week and were lucky enough to survive both. .this smells like a Democrat idea. .let's just keep poking the hornets nest until we have a war?! Or is this connected to Russia collusion?
If you probe Putin, a guy on his way out, it would make sense to investigate all the Russian oligarchs.
While you are at it investigate all the Chinese and American ones too.
Putin is no angel, but really he is the only thing we got to worry about?
anon@ 1:55.. agreed. From all we know Putin is perhaps a murderer. I don't know, that's just what the media portrays him as. But then again, when I think about what the media says about the US president (again and again), I start to wonder how much is true. With regard to Putin, I am almost certain that he has had investigators/journalists killed.. it's just happening too often to be a coincidence. The floors in Russia (and beyond) are littered with dead reporters. That much is true. BUT.. he still is the elected head of a foreign country, so why does congress - which is such a filthy swamp itself - get to investigate him? Shouldn't they be ask to clean up their own house first? Think about who in the US still gets to serve, no matter what THEY have done *(and where there IS evidence).. you have people accused of rape (Fairfax - two "credible" witnesses), people who called for intimidation of other people (see Maxine Waters comment), which was perhaps the most undemocratic statement of the decade -- yet we let them serve. But then again, I'm not American, so why should I care.. I'm just pissed at the hypocrisy. And then there is Hillary Rodham Clinton, who - perhaps together with the previous Obama administration - conspired to use Russian fake dossier to SPY on a presidential campaign and to subvert him, and perhaps use article 25 to get rid of him. That's what likely happened, and there is such an intense cover-up it is sickening. So again, why this Putin thing? Why not investigate Clinton? Why not investigate Fairfax? Why is Maxine Waters - who on the record (together with Clinton later) called for an intimidation and harrassment of people she disagrees with. And Clinton later famously said "civility can be restored until we are back in power". It is unbelievable what happens in the US and they better get their act together. I am European, and our own politicians suck. Lots of scandals. BUT, we always believed the US would do a bit better.. but time and time again we see how corrupt they are. That's why also the European/US alliance is slowly erroding. How can you team up to fight a war with a nation that is so corrupt? Until the Clintons, the Maxine Waters etc are gone and/or at least investigated for what they have done to democracy, --- and importantly until the leftwing media is a bit punished for what THEY have done for two years non-stop -- I just don't see how Europe can follow the US anymore. That;s why you see Merkel doing this oil deal with Russia, which SICKENS me, because lets face it, that will play right into Putin's hands.. but it's all connected... have filthy media, lying media, and outrageous people on the left and you cannot identify with it anymore, and that affects strategic partnerships too. That's just my take. So yeah, do investigate Putin, BUT that should be done by the Russian people, not by the US, or my country. (unless of course if were connected somehow with Russian interference in our own poltiical systems, happy for that to go on, but after 2+ years, there seems no evidence beyond what the Russians typically do, they took out facebook ads for like what, $40k?I've worked in companies that spend more in a week on facebook ads, so it barely was a major attack.. )

No one...not a one...is out of our jurisdiction. What do you think NSA et al are all about?
God your ignorance is astonishing. You don't even know that the NSA is only within the US. You meant the CIA.
Please, Fred, for once think before you write. Your ignorance is well documented by now but I still have hopes that you find logic at one point and don't just let your legacy be a mouth piece of a corrupt leftist media. ThinK!

NOW GIRLY BOYS, POST MORE NASTY SHIT THE WAY GOP DID AT COHEN HEARINGS...THAT IS ALL YOU CAN DO. NO SUBSTANCE. SURE SIGN OF BEING DEPLOARABLES!
DEAR ANON--
PLZ DO NOT TELL ME ABOUT AM INTEL...YOU SHOW YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT NSA ...TRY READING The Puzzle Palace: Inside the National Security Agency, America's ...
https://www.amazon.com/Puzzle-Palace-National-Intelligence.../dp/0140067485
AND STOP DEMONSTRATING TOTAL IGNORANCE WHILE BADMOUTHING ME
Do you know what the N stands for? :)
Most of NSA work is national. Hence the name. But the CIA is focused on global operations. It would be the prime agency for the above discussion. Anon is mostly right, Fred mostly wrong
Whoa,
Lapides has read the "Puzzle Palace". Now the World knows Lapides is the next George Smiley.
No one...not a one...is out of our jurisdiction.
So Fred is a lawyer now and not a very good one.
https://www.fmamlaw.com/blog/2017/08/when-can-the-us-government-prosecute-someone-for-acts-abroad.shtml
Another fact is that Andrew Jackson showed us that SCOTUS does not have an army and has been and could in the future be ignored. The Russians have big army.
I am surprised that Fred read a book. The edition Fred 'read' must have had pictures.
What is the NSA about? Who is out of our jurisdiction? Since the Church Committee in the 1970s, what leader have we taken out using the NSA? None that I know of.
We have taken out 2 leaders, Saddam Hussein and Osama Bin Laden. We are taking the U.S Military ion both cases. In the latter case a lot of CIA work, but not the NSA. Fred forgets that Muslim terrorists use couriers, have ceased using phones as much and use the hawala system to transfer money.
Any bets to how long it will be until, Fred calls Lori, girlie boy?
I note that all you girly boys can do is hurl insults, childish ones at that.
try this: I was at a place doing stuff before there was a thing called NSA..now smarty pants, let us see how clever you are
please stop showing your ignorance! many comments here are not just naive but dead wrong...I will not go into such stuff online and for sure have no interest in discussing over a beer. Have friends who are not so offensive nor ignorant.
There are these dudes who are 50+, who get mail order brides from China, who are 30 something. I have seen these union guys walking around the factory during open house.
We call these marriages, winter-summer marriages for a reason . We joke that the wives are really nurses.
So much for the beer.
To call Fred a bad lawyer is hurling an insult.
Given Fred's track record, might it not be probable and profitable to place bets on when he calls someone else a girly boy?
I am genuinely shocked that you, Fred, read books all that often. Usually, when you are challenged to read a book, the retort is "PH_K you!" You are so clever with your phonetic spellings.
Want to compare marital lives?
35 yrs and you?
Oh too young
Lapides,
"Have friends who are not so offensive nor ignorant."
Are these the ones you are always going to dinner with? If so who pays?
Was that at the super secret place you claimed to have been at, doing stuff?
Well if you were in the dark world (as you claim) then it seems to have survived your inhabitation.
My condolences to the poor woman.
E3 Fred did plenty of super secret stuff.
E3?!?!
The number of marriages that survive where the age difference is 9 years or greater is ~2.5%.
When you see one there usually is a great deal of money involved.
You usually think gold digger.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anna_Nicole_Smith
Or you think mail order bride married to losers.
So any claim of happily married with a great difference in age bears scrutiny.
The bigger the age gap, the shorter the marriage

"Socially, a society with a difference in wealth distribution between older and younger people may affect the dynamics of the relationship."
"Your nonstop insults make you trip Trojans all bull shit no substance"
I think what you want is a pharmacy.
Yeah, you caught that jurisdiction thingy too. The ones like Fred love the thought that people are in "jurisdiction" ready for correction by their self evident betters, such as Fred.
