Trump/Russia/SDNY investigation

Manafort must be in bed with some bad hombres that he's willing to die in jail.

Will love to hear the GOPs rationale for supporting Trump when he pardons him. (Despite the state charges)

The alternative is his wife and daughters being killed by novichok or worse? They're playing high stakes.
 
Wait, you realise that's mocking the cheeto manbaby, right?
Yeah I know but it's really really not funny. It appears the way they've decide to mock a manbaby is to shit their brains all over our television screens. What's the difference between this and one of the odd conservatives who dress up as a women on college campuses to "own the Libs".

Yes the arsehole in the White House is moron but does mean everyone else has to be just as stupid or as lazy. I mean it's not even a relatively recent Russian hockey jersey for feck sake.
 
Graham has ordered a hearing, interrogating McCabe & Rosenstein.
 
Palin did much the same some years. It's incitement, and should be punished heavily - given Trump's supporters, it could lead to murder...as Stone well knows.
 
Has anyone seen Get Me Roger Stone? If you watch it, you'd realise he's willing to go to prison as long as he's front page news. He's not a moron, he must have some ofrm of personality disorder.
 
I can hardly believe that operators like Stone, and right-wing fanatics, are still around. I was used to reading about the rabid atmosphere before JFK's assassination (the lunatics with their trailers covered in a thousand slogans; the bugging, thieving guns-for-hire for whom dirty politics was a game they played with a Hunter S. Thompson air of irreverence etc etc) - but those scumbags were around in the Sixties, not now. Does the right never change?
 


Might be impeachable but such a lot of Trump’s behaviour is of an “illegal” nature yet sod all is ever done. Sadly it’s become the norm and we get outrage for an hour or two and then it’s forgotten and we move to his next transgression. Soon it’ll just become the accepted norm for presidential behaviour and will barely be mentioned.

It’s so true, evil thrives because good men do nothing.
 
Calling shenanigans on this.

Either Barr is pulling the plug and told Mueller to wrap it up or someone is leaking bollocks to put pressure on someone.

Sources recently said that Mueller is nowhere near finished and it was expected to roll for another year or two at a minimum.

If this is true and is legit, I think we will see a Mueller Report rather than the Mueller Report. Probably the obstruction charge.
 
"Summary" = They're going to try their damnedest to make sure the full report never see the light of day. Kellyanne Conway apparently said as much last night.

Congress can subpoena it. They can do what they like.

Saw some speculation like this because this is already highly obvious and out in the open. Provides the basis for a recommendation of impeachment that Congress can (in theory) act on and then the investigations into the conspiracy side of things can continue separately.

I’ve been saying for a long long time that I think Mueller will bring the obstruction charge to trigger impeachment (because there’s already precedent that obstruction = impeachment) and bring the serious charges when Trump is a private citizen and can’t go running to his SCOTUS picks.
 
Yesterday I read somewhere that Mueller asked (Jan) for a 6 months extension to the Grand Jury. That was the most he could request. But he could have requested less if he had wanted. In other words if he felt that the investigation was close to completion then he could just have requested say 2 or 3 months, but he didn’t, he requested the maximum 6 months. Makes me think he may need this extra time.
 
Trump says it is ‘totally up to’ Bill Barr to make Mueller’s report public

President Donald Trump on Wednesday said the decision whether to release special counsel Robert Mueller’s report will be made by his new attorney general.


“That’ll be totally up to the new attorney general. He’s a tremendous man, a tremendous person who really respects this country and respects the Justice Department,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office.



CNN reported Wednesday Barr is preparing to receive special counsel Robert Mueller’s report as early as next week.

Of course he will say that.The praise he as given for Barr says it all. He won't make it public.

Ironically Stone, who was a Nixon acolyte, is a huge believer in the assassination plot and has written books about it.
