Have you been reading the new stories about this woman this morning? Holy shit.
The affidavit quotes from several private message exchanges shortly before the 2016 presidential election between not only Butina and the Russian Official but Butina and an unnamed U.S. person, both of whom, the affidavit notes, she met and communicated with regularly as they developed an “influence operation.”
In one early exchange, Butina emailed the U.S. person in 2015 describing what she called the “central place and influence” the NRA enjoys in an unnamed political party as the “largest sponsor of the elections to the US congress, as well as a sponsor of The CPAC conference and other events.”
The following year, the U.S. person emailed an acquaintance, saying “I’ve been involved in securing a VERY private line of communication between the Kremlin” and leaders of an unnamed political party through an unnamed gun rights organization.

Butina has met with both Trump and Donald Trump Jr., and had multiple discussions with them. This woman works for Alexander Torshin, a Russian politician, who (surprise!!!) has also met with Trump Jr as well.
Then factor in that the NRA donated A LOT of money to the Trump Campaign....
Don't tell me this isn't collusion. This is a Russian agent who has met with with both Trump and Trump Jr, who was working for Alexander Torshin, who has also met Trump Jr, while funneling tens of millions of dollars. Then we have an American citizen saying they are involved with a "very private line of communication with the Kremlin".
I wonder who this "American" is. Trump Jr? Jeff Sessions?
Drip. Drip. Drip.
