Even before Mueller was appointed, FBI opened investigation to “rein in” Trump. Note that they were planning an obstruction probe even before Comey was fired. Leaked to CNN because it’s friendly media, meaning they thought it was about to come out somewhere less friendly. This is huge, and people should go to jail.

I’d say President Trump has maybe a few weeks before the new House is seated to have a few good men make citizen’s arrests of the conspirators.
What is he waiting for? If he is expecting justice from the system, he knows he won’t get it. He has to go to the American people.
So in summary the US realized it was getting thoroughly boondoggled by Russian oligarchs and rather than admitting it and losing face, they tried and failed to secretly fix it. Absolutely beautiful.
Beautiful but wrong. VArious criminal in the deep state realized that it was all going horribly wrong, as she was supposed to win, that they had to cover their tracks. The best way to do it was to harass the President with a bogus enquiry.
When the Democrat House starts issuing subpoenas in January everyone who can should claim executive privilege and everyone who can’t should plead the 5th. Hell – have the Whitehouse hire all potential witnesses and then have them plead executive privilege. And start issuing blanket pardons to everyone who is threatened. Drive them nuts er …. nutsier. Let them know 2 years is enough.
Send them all in with teams of lawyers, as Comey et al do. Demand immunity for all concerned and a behind close door interview, with tea, immunity for all the accused, with no oath, transcript of recording of the interview, as was done for Hillary.
Otherwise, tell them go to stuff it. I think it’s imperative to beat the DeMarxists (especially their identity fascist wing) to the punch and start rolling out indictments. There’s lots of evidence.
If Mueller can’t be leashed, appoint a special prosecutor over him to investigate all abuses of power and other attempts to subvert the 2016 US election, including investigating the efficacy and legality of the Mueller terms of reference given by hopelessly conflicted Rosenstein.
How ironic, you got nothing on me G-men; anyway my lawyer advised me to stonewall you. Will it work?

The sustainment of the deep state seditionists turns on what happens to Comey imho.
If he skates, as dirty as he is (signing fraudulent FISA warrant), they all do.
Unless Comey takes the 5th and/or doesn’t answer questions, he should be handcuffed and perp walked out of Congress to cells.
Why doesn’t Trump declare total war on the DeMarxists, as they are preparing to do with House impeachment, and fire sycophant seditionists like Rosenstein, and “rein” in or outright fire the statist sycophant Mueller (dirty himself folks)?
He must be aware they plan to keep him off balance until 2020, iow another two years of their illegal, disloyal and unethical garbage. They’d perp walk Trump at the first opportunity. He must act in kind and nail them all, ensuring tread marks.
Justice must not only be done; it must also be seen to be done.
What is the contrapositive? Injustice must be unseen.
Bit more of an explosion when the perpetrators of injustice are seen to be doing injustice. Trump is selling them the rope with which they are hanging themselves; that is why he is holding back on indictments. The reactions of the criminal operators are out in the light of day.
I sure hope so, but when I hear of things like Comey’s latest stonewall.
I have to wonder if liberty and plurality will ever be restored to the US, and am even more skeptical Canada’s prospects.
well shammy, what fools like you and Ass Canadian haven’t figured out yet, the swamp is very deep, and bi-partisan. Once you realize that, you may understand how frustrated Trump must be. Then you have Ass canadain thinking “citizens arrests” are the ticket.
Deep staters who are Republicans? Say it ain’t so Joe. Where the frig have you been the last two yeart?
Irrelevant point followed by shallow insult because you’re not bright enough to follow the facts.
Pathetic. Right back at you coward boy.
Hopefully this whole Mueller investigation was the POTUS giving them rope.
Do you think Flynn is still working for Trump off book? The more stuff dribbling out, the more this resembles a complex counter intelligence operation, run by fairly competent people. Whatever he is, Trump ain’t counter intelligence; that leaves people like Flynn. Was it Flynn’s idea to throw himself under the bus? Display weakness to your enemies publicly, but it’s all scripted privately.
In HIS words “Grab em by the *****.”
In other news, James Fields Jr. has been convicted of not allowing a leftist mob to drag him out of his car and murder him in broad daylight in Charlottesville last year. He faces certain death at the hands of racist black inmates in prison if convicted.
First degree murder conviction for what is at worst manslaughter. And now they going to try him on federal capital charges.
Manslaughter? He only killed a communist. There are Americans still alive who got medals for that sort of thing.
So I am lectured endlessly about “Democracy dying with Trump’s election” … when in fact there is NO Democracy at all. The Deep State runs our country. A coup of the bureaucrats took place under puppet-Obama. THIS … is the “legacy” of our FIRST half-black President. Yes, Mr Bezos … American Democracy DIED in darkness. And the darkness persists … like a Comey “testimony” … dark … nothingness.
Obama could have been the Jackie Robinson of American Presidents … instead, he was OJ Simpson
The FBI and the DOJ are a clear and present danger to the Republic. They are far more dangerous than any off shore threat. There is a war coming.
Let me give you an example how it works, and why no one (absolutely no one) affiliated with these activities will pay any sort of price. Let’s take Rod Rosenstein as an example. Rosenstein signed the final re-application for the FISA Class 1 warrant on Carter Page. That would be the third 90 day renewal on an unjustified warrant. The warrant, itself, was primarily based on the Steele Dossier, and in the case of this particular renewal, additional circular media items planted in the media outlets by the parties seeking the warrant.
Totally, and unarguably a violation of Federal Statutes to the tune of six(6) separate felonies.
Now, Rosenstein, when questioned under oath stated “It would not surprise me if what the Counter Intelligence DOJ Attorneys told me was in the application, and what actually was in the application were two totally separate things.” He signed that renewal application, and his defense was that he based his decision to sign off on it using the recommendations and descriptions of its contents as provided by the DOJ Counterintelligence attorneys. Now, here’s why he can’t be held accountable in any fashion for this.
Rosenstein was appointed by Trump. The investigation was of Trump. As an appointment, by extension, the investigation involved Rod Rosenstein. Therefore, the Counter Intelligence Attorneys of the DOJ were within their rights to not be truthful with a subject of their investigation. Lying to Rosenstein is perfectly acceptable in law enforcement. It’s done all the time with defendants. It’s a very effective and commonplace action in criminal investigation.
Well, of course Rosenstein knew exactly what was in the re-application he signed. He likely was involved from the very infancy of the concept and planning. But, he has plausible deniability. Because he can say the Attorneys from the DOJ (CounterIntel) lied to him about the contents. They are protected because they have plausible deniability of it being perfectly legal to lie to the subject of and investigation (incidentally, now you know why so much pressure is applied every time Trump threatens to fire Rosenstein). The irony is that the plausible deniability was manufactured using a manufactured crime. It’s a nasty little circle that can’t be pierced unless someone spills the beans. No one has. Disregard the nonsense about Stzrok, Page, Priestep or whomever ratting out the rest of the team. The simple truth is no one has cooperated. Instead they are spitefully doing the opposite. The only reason Stzrok lasted so long on the job (as well as Bill Priestep) is that the federal unions carry a lot of weight and they were going through the motions.
Face it, the U.S. Is done. It was great while it lasted.
Wow IP and you all sure are getting mendacious. Nothing in the CNN article reflects IP’s psychotic take on it. The walls are closing in…
