President Donald J. Trump

[Yorkshire pud]

That's why I've stated it here. All the power players checkout Bellgab. I'm sure they'll see it. 

I'm sure think you're right.

[Dr. MD MD]

I'm sure think you're right.

Thanks. I'm sure think I'm right too.

The WH staff believed it would quieten down after the announcement of Mueller's role. Somehow I don't think that's true; Cry baby Donny was tweeting earlier how he's all hard done to and and and Obama and Clinton never had a special prosecuter investigating them. Didn't he say in the campaign that Clnton would stand trial and go to jail? So now he's (as he keeps reminding anyone who still cares to listen) POTUS, why doesn't he get the ball rolling n that?

Its not fair!!!

Other than to ask the AG to look into it, Trump will have nothing to say about whether or not Hilliary is prosecuted.   That determination is the sole province of DOJ.  However, given the DAG's assessment  of the way in which Comey handled the Clinton email investigation it seems to me that it behooves him to, at the very least, reexamine the evidence on which Comey based his findings plus any additional facts that may be uncovered as a result of the Weiner investigation.  Whether she will be indicted for her mishandling of classified material is anyone's guess.  Of course the Clinton Foundation is an entirely different matter and all indications are that that investigation is ongoing and has been for some time.  I think it more likely that the latter produces an indictment(s) rather than the former. 

[Kidnostad3]

Just so everyone is in no doubt. Last night Trump stated he was looking forward to the conclusion of the investigation by Mueller....

This morning its a witch hunt. Clear?

Those statements are not contradictory. 

[Yorkshire pud]

Those statements are not contradictory.

Ordinarily I'd agree. But this is Trumpiverse. Trump is the perpetual self inflicted victim. If you don't agree with him in his world (no matter what batshit bullshit he utters) you're percieved as against him. The insecure manbaby.

It probably won't occur to him that the DAG he appointed has appointed Mueller. The world is against him and its nothing to do with him.

[SredniVashtar]

Those statements are not contradictory.

But they are inconsistent. He must be the world's worst poker player, everything is a tell with him.

It would be like you ordering oatmeal at that care home of yours (only mush allowed for you) only to hurl the bowl at your nurse and claim you wanted mashed banana instead, before soiling your diapers in protest.

Time Magazine is never wrong. They'd never lie. And they clearly have no agenda.
😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄

"Still Zero evidence of collusion" - James Comey, D - Diane Feinstein
"The Trump administration has never stood in the way of the investigation" James Comey under oath may 3rd. Welp guess he's on his way to jail for perjury, or the NYTimes made up a story using a fake "unnamed source". Well gee they'd never do that.
😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄

[Yorkshire pud]

I wonder how many people Trump will throw under the bus to protect himself? It wouldn't surprise me if he's discussed firing the DAG and Mueller. And surprise me even less if he did. With absolutely no idea how that would be a suicidal decision.

Better tell the DAG, he's appointed a special counsel. Do it before they start recruiting lawyers.

Subpeonas are not "optional" -- is "contempt of Congress" to (attempt to) refuse.

But you can tell the issuer of a subpoena that you will rely on 5th amendment protections if the subpoena is issued, which appears to be the case here.  As for contempt of Congress, ask Eric Holder how much of a threat that is.

[Kidnostad3]

OMG Stop the Presses!  Meister has made yet another amazing revelation.  Certainly there will be dire consequences:

"In 2012, Eric Holder was found in contempt of Congress, with this resolution passing both a committee and the full chamber. However, the Obama Administration’s Department of Justice cited executive privilege and did not pursue a case against Holder.

In May 2014, Lois Lerner was found to be in contempt of Congress when she would not testify before a committee. A contempt of Congress resolution passed in the House of Representatives, but the United States attorney for the District of Columbia subsequently said that no charges against Lerner would be pursued.

In 2016, Bryan Pagliano, the Hillary Clinton aide who helped set up her private email server, refused to testify before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. The committee found him in contempt of Congress in a vote, but this did not end up being voted on by the full House. In February 2017, House Oversight Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz urged the Department of Justice to pursue charges against Pagliano, but no such charges have come."

Imagine, Flynn can be fined as much as $1000.00.  That'll teach the bastard to mess with Congress.

Flynn's attorney advised him well.  But thank you Captain Obvious for letting us know about Flynn's continuing criminal behavior.  OBTW, has Susan RIce testified before Congress or is she waiting to be subpoenaed?

And now Rosenstein is a "traitor" for doing his job.

It's interesting that Chaffetz's letter to the FBI was driven by the WaPo story (which he even quoted), essentially he's using the journalists' research. No wonder Trump wants them locked up.

When someone is drowning they tend to panic and pull the rescuers down with them. In the next few months, WH staff and Trump insiders are going to have to decide if it's worth it to risk their reputations for a narcissist who doesn't care who goes down with him.

Yeah they really get upset when I do that but what really pisses them off is when, after they have  cleaned the oatmeal up and gotten it out of their hair, I ask them why they're taking so fucking long to bring me my oatmeal.  It's a riot!

No one needs a punch in the nose more than that fucker...except maybe John McCain.

How would Pence know though? He was only the head of Trump's campaign, he was only following orders.

Yeah I always thought the narrative that Pence was this poor sap who was taken advantage of that evil Flynn and Trump was a bit much. The guy had the most experience of anybody in the administration and was the lead in the transition team, yet this whole Flynn issue blindsided him? He also showed no problem pushing the administration false reasoning for the Comey firing.

[Yorkshire pud]

Trump: "Appointing the special counsel hurts our country terribly" and "A very very negative thing". Presumably because both houses, the DAG, the FBI, are all irrationally against him? Yeah, that'll be it.  :

Yep, they're all guilty as sin. Only Clinton and Obama can commit crimes and continue to go untried. Only those that the deep state signed off on.

All the Trump haters here are just deep state chode haulers. You love that deep state dick! Bill Hicks did a good bit about you years ago.

It's pretty clear it's liberals who've "lost it." I've never seen a more hysterical bunch of jackasses. No, I predict only more liberal tears. Maybe a civil war if they try to push their ridiculous propaganda too far but most likely just more delicious liberal tears.
