Midknight Review -- new and revised: After three months, it appears that even the Senate has given up on "proving" a Russian tie to the Trump Campaign.

Tim Mak / The Daily Beast: Senate Trump-Russia Probe Has No Full-Time Staff, No Key Witnesses — There are just seven part-time staffers working on the Senate inquiry. None of them are trained investigators. And they haven't interviewed a single player in Trump's orbit.
The Senate Intelligence Committee’s probe into Russia’s election interference is supposedly the best hope for getting the public credible answers about whether there was any coordination between the Kremlin and Trump Tower.
But there are serious reasons to doubt that it can accomplish this task, as currently configured.
More than three months after the committee announced that it had agreed on the scope of the investigation, the panel has not begun substantially investigating possible ties between the Trump campaign and Russia, three individuals with ties to the committee told The Daily Beast.

Editor's notes: Funny, but I am not aware that anyone of prominence is continuing this silly investigation into a Trump/Putin partnership. The fact that this Senate committee is obviously not serious about its assignment, should tell us all we need to know.

Trump via Nikki Haley has publicly scolded the Russians curing U.N. debate. The Russian meeting with Secretary of State Tillerson came off as one the coldest reception seen in the past 20 years . . . . . ice cold and unproductive. Trump's attack in Syria, was a direct slap in the face to the Russian presence in that country. All of this defeats the Hillary inspired excuse for losing the past election.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
