..a victim of foul play?

[defacto7]

1. Take note.

2. Hanging with Jimmy Hoffa.

[eggplant]

11. I hear Jimmy's a big supporter of infrastructure. n/t

[mahannah]

12. Dirt, concrete and the occasional daisy.

3. Maybe another in the growing heap of dead Russians?

[DBoon]

4. did he fall out of a hotel window?

..or was he poisoned with Polonium?

[Volaris]

7. To Mother Russia, those are 'natural causes'.

[SeattleVet]

15. 'Natural Causes' can mean a lot of things.

And it can be very situational, also.

For instance, in the NY neighborhood where I grew up, you might very well hear something like, "Oh, yeah, Frankie died of 'natural causes' - his heart stopped when the icepick entered it."

[Volaris]

17. He had an allergic reaction to the Polonium Tea, perhaps?

[Dave Starsky]

13. Polonium takes too long.

Its intent is to cause terrible suffering and send a message to others.

The hotel window thing draws too much attention.

My money is on "went out for cigarettes and never came back".

5. Welcome to DU, lindalou65!

Sounds like Misfud misfired.

Gotta admit, I've found myself musing about that, regarding trump, if the "Russia thing" gets too hot for him, how low might he want to or try to go - to get rid of his accusers if he can't silence them, to make it all go away?

[lindalou65]

6. Thanks

Glad to be here! Yes, indeed, this Russia thing might be getting to a bit much for Trump...

[Botany]

8. Papadopolous is lucky that he got arrested @ the airport by Mueller & company because if not ...

.... Putin would have made him, "gone missing." I still think some people like Flynn, Manafort,
Page, and even Kushner are on Putin's to see list.

[aeromanKC]

9. FYI to Manafort

Better keep your ankle bracelet on!!!

[Achilleaze]

10. the republican 'House of Cards' has so much skanky shit going down

...there just ain't enough vomit bags to go around.

16. Good link

Thanks for posting this non-video link. It gives more background detail than the video. IMO, most likely, the Russians and/or Trump considered Misfud a threat. I hope he is alive but I fear the worst. He is not the first to disappear and likely won't be the last.

18. Check the East River

Or maybe Tony Soprano's uncle's farm in Jersey.

20. Sounds like an agent for Russia, so may well be back there.

Newsweek: "Within two weeks of joining Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, George Papadopoulos met a professor while traveling in Italy. Their encounter took place on March 14, 2016, after Trump had named Papadopoulos a foreign policy adviser earlier that month. The London-based professor apparently told Papadopoulos he had ties to Russian officials, and over the next weeks and months, the adviser spoke with campaign leaders about arranging a meeting with those officials."

But if what this suggests is true, the East River's okay.
