I love this picture. She’s either there because she’s in the social circles to be there or she’s there in violation of laws about private citizens conducting diplomacy.
I need that goose to chase her around with this question.
The last time I posted this picture, a JillBot said it was because she was asking Putin to play nice in the Middle East.
This is apparently a statement that we should take at face value with no incredulity at all. Putin and Flynn just have dinner with political nobodies who are asking them not to do war crimes.
Her story behind this is so funny too. She’s claims she was already sitting there, when Putin and a handler just walked up and sat down. No one said anything because no one spoke Russian (though Putin speaks English and German, and apparently didn’t have a translater handy at this international event). Since no one could talk, they awkwardly got up after a while and walked off!
Sounds extremely plausible and defensible to me, don’t see what people are so hung up about! /s
