Oh yeah, Mueller is clearly entering the home stretch, but first he needs Trump get on with it and agree to sit down with him without ridiculous conditions. Seems like Trump is going to hide behind his lawyers. Trump does what Trump wants, so the notion that he can't do this or that because his lawyers say no is a bullshit copout. He should be eager to tell his side of the story if there is no there there. Get on with it and stop whining.Comment -
man roy you can't be this dumb.Flynn, before he took office offered russia to pull sanctions. Flynn before he took office offered to kidnap a u.s. citizen and give him back to turkey for a million dollars. Flynn when he took office got trump to change something for a country he was on the payroll for. Now trump maybe innocent but flynn is as guilty as they come.Comment -
Flynn, Manafort, Papadopolous, Page, etc etc. Come on man. This ain't all just a coincidence. Trump made a deal with the devil. If he was able to do so without enough fingerprints tied to him, well good for him, I guess. But Putin has it all over him. He owns many in Congress too. This thing runs deep.Comment -
If someone that was a reporter dug deep; I bet most these guys have donations from the russian who got his **** from w.Comment -
Uhhh come on D2. There are no charges there. Collusion died months ago. You have a lying charge and failure to fill out a form charge and some tax stuff. You know better.
An obstruction charge from a tainted charge won't result in impeachment when Repubs control congress.
Of course Trump should follow his lawyers advice. If Mueller doesn't have a ham sandwich on Trump then Trump doesn't have to talk to anyone. You probably remember that from law school??
If I'm Mueller and I know the IG has texts, emails and bank records of FBI'ers trying to make this president fail I get the hell out of Washington before that IG report comes out.Comment -
Trump would never sit with Mueller. Trump lies too much and is low IQ. His lawyers understand that.Comment -
this is just ten percent of the swamp's bullshit.....

Trump's behavior reminds me of this astute sentiment from Ms. Sanders.

Republicans are eroding the fundamentals of American democracy
Trumps will to power is greater than anyone elses will to check him and that is in stark contrast to how a checks and balance is supposed to work. It is sad to pillars cracking. The memo was not a bombshell, it was a document written by the same yahoos that released it. But it is Trumps attempt to preempt the intelligence community in case Mueller has a case against him. My next guess is Rosenstein is gone, Trump puts in a lynchman to get rid of Mueller and voila, the erosion continues.
It highlights just how fragile democracy can be.Comment -
The fatalist in me says America got lazy with its democracy after 240 years and it needed to be tested and stretched to highlight it. And that's on all sides. That includes the FBI. And most especially includes the powers of a corrupt and morally bankrupt executive branch that rose to power by base instinct politics via a legendary conman that becomes the pawn of a hostile foreign power.Republicans are eroding the fundamentals of American democracy Trumps will to power is greater than anyone elses will to check him and that is in stark contrast to how a checks and balance is supposed to work.

Yup.
Paying foreign oppo research to create fictitious dossiers and then using said dossier as grounds to surveill political opponents, thus institutionally weaponizing pillars of American intelligence and law enforcement. Those rascally Republicans.
Oh wait. That was the fukkin' Democrats.

The problem is Dems hate Trump more than they love America.
Therefore they rationalize corrupt behavior as acceptable.
This could get very bad. What classified intelligence gathered by these warrants was passed to Hillary or to GPS or other 3rd parties? Was Brad Ohr given any indirect compensation, ie is wife receiving an abnormally high salary from Fusion GPS? Were there emails between the FBI and Steele and GPS? Was there correspondence between the lawyers & agents who appeared before the FISA court and their superiors or anyone else with respect to the dossier? This list goes on forever but you get the point.Comment -
that is because those tax cuts haven't hitComment -

Quit being a drama queen. Thats as arbitrary a statement as one could make given there is no way to qualitatively measure ones hate for Trump nor ones love for America.
Whats equally as likely is that my love for America is so great that I hate Trump because he is fracturing our democracy and setting us back as a country.
I could effectively make the same argument against you. Your deep-rooted and boundless support for everything Trump says and does, despite the negative consequences that our country will suffer, clearly demonstrates that your love for Trump greatly exceeds your love for America.
But none of that partisan rhetoric interests me. If you want to discuss the pertinents by all means, I'd enjoy the dialogue. I've always enjoyed your insightComment -
Of course Mueller is in the homestretch, it's the main reason Trump pushed to get the memo released in the first place. Get out in front of whatever comes out and attempt to get leverage against the FBI. We have half of our country supporting Trump as he attempts to position himself above the law. Why do most Republicans support this? Because to them as long as it makes liberals mad, then they're 100% for it. And that's about as deep as it goes for a lot of people. They're willing to compromise major pillars of our democracy in order to see liberals mad. Pretty sad state of the unionComment -
Kracken, Trump didn't spy on Hillary or take fabricated evidence to a court through a dark team of surrogates in the FBI. If you did have any respect for America you would want to get to the bottom of this. This is as close to a coup as there has been in the US.
They knew on day 1 there was no collusion, they had been spying on Trump for months.
This is going to have a terrible affect on Dems for the next couple of elections. Totally unnecessary. A special prosecutor is going to be brought in and it's going to take years to unravel this web.Comment -
The Hill article :
Former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page referred to himself as an “advisor to the staff of the Kremlin” in a 2013 letter to an academic publisher, Time reported Saturday.
The publication reported that it had obtained the 2013 letter sent during a dispute about edits on a manuscript Page had written.
“Over the past half year, I have had the privilege to serve as an informal advisor to the staff of the Kremlin in preparation for their Presidency of the G-20 Summit next month, where energy issues will be a prominent point on the agenda,” Page wrote, according to Time.Page told Time that during 2013 he “sat in on and contributed to a few roundtable discussion with people from around the world,” starting when a Russian representative visited the United Nations in New York that year.
The former Trump adviser called the meetings “really plain-vanilla stuff” and provided Time with a briefing document written by a Russian trade diplomat about the country’s priorities for a 2013 summit.
“Does that make me an evil villain, as some of your sources would like to have you think?” Page told Time.
The former Trump campaign adviser has been at the center of a GOP memo released Friday that alleges the Department of Justice used information from the so-called Steele dossier to obtain a surveillance warrant on Page.
Page testified before the House Intelligence Committee last year in the panel’s probe into Russian election interference, telling lawmakers he suggested that Trump visit Russia during the campaign.
The then-adviser had made the trip to Russia instead, and briefly met with a senior Russian government official.
Page said that he had notified top Trump campaign officials about his trip to Russian, including then-Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) and then-campaign manager Corey Lewandowski.
Page has denied any wrongdoing related to Russia and has not been charged with any crimes.Comment -
lol hilarious watching the pill popping idiot pretend he understand what is going on. There is a reason kraken agrees with you d2, you're an idiot also.Comment -
Didn’t James Comey testify under oath to Congress that the Dossier was salacious and unverified?
So why the hell did he sign off 3 Times approving it as verified to gain a spy warrant???
