Hi Michele, Thanks for posting this.  

My first reaction is that Trump's in trouble, so Putin's dreams of getting favorable Russia treatment are also in trouble, especially with the Congress trying to restrict Trump from lifting Russia sanctions.  The source of the news that Russia may have killed this man came from Russian state media, i.e., Putin.  The message:  Wow, look how much Russia is helping all of us deal with our terror of terror!
