    David, RT is not an independent, private source. It is funded by the Russian government. So, the presenter is on the Kremlin's payroll. As for the guest he's spot on.

    If a man surrounds himself with criminals there's a good reason why. Mueller isn't going to broadcast his findings on Trump until he feels the investigation is complete. Many of those accused were dealing directly with Trump's interests in Russia.

    Trump appeared on RT and criticized America.
    https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...ernment/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.58f27c1ca10f

    In an interview Thursday, Donald Trump was asked what surprised him most about the American press. "Well, I think the dishonesty of the media," the Republican presidential hopeful responded, with little hesitation. "The media has been unbelievably dishonest."

    That Trump has an unfavorable view of American journalism will surprise few — for months, his campaign kept a "blacklist" of news organizations, including The Washington Post, and he has frequently complained publicly about a perceived bias against him.

    But his outlet for venting this frustration may have been more surprising. Trump's comments came during an interview with Larry King that was aired on RT America — part of a state-owned Russian media organization that critics accuse of propagandistic aims and poor journalistic standards.

    "Reagan never gave interviews to Pravda while campaigning to be our president," Michael McFaul, a former U.S. ambassador to Russia, wrote on Twitter, referring to the official newspaper of the Soviet Union. "Who advised Trump to appear on RT?"

    The interview was featured prominently by RT and billed as an "exclusive." On Twitter, RT editor in chief Margarita Simonyan shared a triumphant message about the interview: "We did it!"

    If there are no findings that is also good reason not to be broadcasting findings.

    However, every couple of months we hear THIS IS IT, TRUMP IS GOING DOWN!!

    Ya right. Lets see if Schiff does any better.

    I agree about not broadcasting about Trump findings if there have not yet been any released. The same rule should have been applied to Hillary as well. Repeatedly getting his supporters to "Lock her up" when there were no charges against her was pure propaganda. In fact the charges had been investigated and dropped due to lack of evidence.

    Personally I am weary of the school boy after school fights.
    Nothing will get done until one of the major parties take over a 2/3rds majority of congress and senate and maybe not even then (unless the socialist/marxists) do it.

    I know that. The interviewer used to work for CNN, I can't remember his name but always wears braces as we call them here (suspenders?) I only watch RT when there is no other news of interest. I prefer RT to CNN, but I don't have satelite TV here and don't receive CNN or my fafourite news channel, France 24. I like that because you get a broader coverage of news, but then France 24 is a gov't owned station.

    That's not true. Provide some evidence.
