Spy intrigue in the White House?

When things don’t make sense, usually they do when we have the facts.

The incomprehensible praise for Vladimir Putin and Russia is a conundrum that has been difficult to understand until recent revelations.

Current and former senior U.S. government officials consider Kislyak to be one of Russia’s top spies and spy recruiters in Washington.
