Politics The Probe

Tabloid Company, Aiding Trump Campaign, May Have Crossed Line Into Politics

What surprises me about all this is they're acting as if they "just" discovered this...
I mean there was rumor, if not outright confirmation of this when the campaign was going on.

This would be like an adult being shocked their parents had sex in the past. Well, Duhh.

Actually MUCH of the probe has been this...just formally confirming what was noted before...but ignored or denied.

Well, of course the bad guys ARE lying about it to cover themselves.
Didn't you see them when they did it???

Now THIS I'm pissed at Obama about.
To not stop corruption so not to look biased. (THAT is one of your jobs!!! fuck if they think it's unfair...hell, they've thought it's unfair since you WON!!)

If Obama had just stopped the Russians in their tracks...called them on their shit. Where would we be now??? Polite friggin' idiot.
Do something!!!
That's what we pay ya for

Now we got this asshole in...you see him worries about being biased or PC??? The GOP either?
Geez!!

 

Mueller Examining Trump’s Tweets in Wide-Ranging Obstruction Inquiry
and
Cohen Ready to Say Trump Knew of Son's 2016 Russia Contact
and
Feds Reportedly Seized More Than 100 Tapes Related To Trump From Michael Cohen | HuffPost

Trickle, trickle, trickle...
That's not the leaks getting stronger and closer together before the dam burst, Mr. Trump...
That's someone peeing on your treacherous leg.
You can tell yourself it's raining.
Lie to yourself now...you have, to everyone else already.

 

Perspective | Reporter Carl Bernstein has seen it all, from Nixon to now. But nothing quite like Trump.

Ok, you "may" be in trouble if the guy who took down the last prez to resign...decided it's time to dive again and investigate your ass.
Trump better hope that Woodward doesn't hook up too.

But I'm guessing the NYT and The Post and other various media sources are suckin' on the marrow of this bone they're chewing on.
The hunt is not "just" by Mueller.
The hounds smell blood...

 

Ahh...spoke to soon, Woodward IS gunning for him too...
In a new book, Bob Woodward plans to reveal the ‘harrowing life’ inside Donald Trump’s White House

Taking a different approach and angle, not on the probe...but a book on the chaos that is his administration.

Looks like Trump is getting it from both sides...the probe coming in from behind and having to swallow the book now.
...sounds like a scene from of those Russian tapes he keeps denying

 

Trump Fury Over Mueller ‘Conflicts’ Dates to Oval Office Meeting

Uhh, Mr. Trump...your interview with Mueller "may" be the REASON that he decided to take the investigation...
You...are the "conflict of interest".

Hmm, may have been some of the things you said...

 

Mueller’s Digging Exposes Culture of Foreign Lobbying and Its Big Paydays

This compliments the post that I did in "What's happening"...
By they way they're enforcing the rules...there's no way to account for foreign influence or corruption.

And if there is a way in...the cockroaches will find the holes and take advantage of it...once one finds it, many others will.
And then your kitchen is infected and unhealthy.

Now see, Mueller is like an exterminator doing a review to see where the cockroaches are getting in...and proving the issue.
Question is...will Congress and especially the GOP allow the clean up to be done???

We'll see
I don't have much faith in these friggin "landlords"

 

Will Trump remain bulletproof?

Well, looks like 2 will be probed further...in prison.
Mueller is on a roll with wins

Manafort hasn't even finished with the next set of charges yet.
Cohen hasn't finished talking, I'm sure.

 

Mueller fights Russian firm's attempt to 'intervene' in Roger Stone aide's appeal

Geez, is it me or is it becoming more like the GOP itself is compromised by Russia like the NRA??
This is just getting weirder.

And I'm not one for conspiracies, but Russia specializes in them...and then some. (being led by an ex-KGB spymaster helps...)

 

Judge Anthony Napolitano says that assigning Matthew Whitaker as Acting AG is illegal

Interesting legal context
I wonder how this will work out??

I doubt they’ll actually respect any precedent.
All the rules and traditions have gone out the door.
It’s only what’s strictly legal with no wiggle room that plays now.

 

Stone associate Jerome Corsi is in plea negotiations with special counsel

And the probe keeps on probing...

My question is...is this significant...or just one more for the pile, accumulating damage.

 

Mueller accuses Paul Manafort of lying about his contact with Trump administration officials

Major move in the Probe.
And a confirmed connection with the administration...

 

Is Mueller Building an Expansive Obstruction Case?

Uhh...yes.
Duh.

 

Michael Cohen sentenced to 3 years in prison, blames President Trump for his 'path of darkness'

Cue Queen song, "Another one bites the dust"

But, thank you for your info, all the same.

Next.

 

Prosecutors Announce Deal With Tabloid Company in Trump Hush-Money Inquiry

Not directly as part of the BIG probe...but one of many painful ones probing Trump all the same.
Another comes out.
(after another immunity deal... )

Talk about a rat being cornered
Trump's got sniffers and hunters coming from all sides.
And the momentum and aggression is building.
The smell blood...or is it fear???

 

Grand jury extended in U.S. special counsel's Trump-Russia probe

And the probe continues...
Grand Jury extension mean the court thinks there's more to go on...

 

Trump Won’t Commit to Making Mueller Report Public

*sigh* How predictable
But, of course...
Stay classy

Uhh...you do know that may be an indictable offense in itself??? If you don't release it...

I guess ya don't know...helps to read and take advice from experts.
Oh well, don't say we didn't tell ya.

But you will anyway...won't you??

 

House Votes, 420-to-0, to Demand Public Release of Mueller Report

We'll see
But at least it sets a marker.

You got a guy in office slippery than an eel covered in slime.
Which is a good description of him, except it insults eels...and slime.

 

Mueller, in U.S. court filing, says multiple probes continue

More probing to do.
Gotta make sure we dig deep.

It doesn't sound comfortable.
