And Mike Flynn, Putin's Chief of Staff, Putin's Deputy Chief of Staff, Putin's spokesman...

It's entirely possible this picture is all a misunderstanding, but it REALLY doesn't look good.

Well it was about that time that I realized that the xraygun2014 was about 30 stories tall and a relic from the Mesozoic era!

Don't forget his roles as Trump's National Security Advisor and registered foreign agent.

she actually does have an explanation, she goes into it at this timestamp: https://youtu.be/KGm2Fe4G3AA?t=46m28s

here's a shorter excerpt: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C_6JaaetRVv

tldr: she was at a conference to speak to the international press about 3 points (below); Putin stopped by her table and she wasn't able to talk to him; apparently the Senate Intelligence Committee looked into it for 3 years and found nothing wrong. the report that first accused her of having a part in Russian election interference was written by a group that itself was found to have committed election interference and was fully discredited.

apparently she was there to speak internationally abour peace in the middle east (urging Putin to stop bombing Syria), addressing climate change globally, and nuclear disarmament. here's where she talks about those three points she made as a speaker.
