    The banner was spotted hanging from the Brooklyn side of the Manhattan Bridge on Thursday. It shows Putin in a suit with a Russian and Syrian flag as backdrop.

    Witnesses told the New York Post they saw two people unfurl the banner at about 1:45 p.m. Police say officers removed it about an hour later.

    The bridge crosses the East River and connects lower Manhattan with downtown Brooklyn.

    Police are investigating. There have been no arrests.

    I thought I saw that on top of Trump Towers? That must have been a mistake!

    Once Hillary’s emails will become public we will find out she was behind this.
