In Trying to Fire Mueller, Trump Digs His Own Legal Grave

[Marion Morrison]

First word in OP link? Opinion. All this shark-jumping.

‘“Attempted obstruction is obstruction even when the perpetrator backs down after failing to get his consigliere to do the deed for him,” constitutional lawyer Larry Tribe [notes]. “In addition, it’s part of a persistent pattern of obstruction. And it’s also strong evidence of consciousness of guilt.” As the Times report notes, Trump has “long demonstrated a preoccupation with those who have overseen the Russia investigation.” He threw a fit when Attorney General Jeff Sessions recused himself from the Russia probe, and he fired Comey after he failed to extract an oath of loyalty. The attempt to decapitate the probe again goes to Trump’s intent to stymie an independent investigation and his seeming cluelessness that these actions would be potentially illegal, an abuse of his power.'

Trump is indeed clueless, ignorant of the law, and blinded by his arrogance.

Larry Tribe is as wrong as Obama's 57 States

The Fresno Bee, the largest newspaper in Rep. Devin Nunes’s (R-CA) district, ripped the GOP lawmaker in a scathing editorial:

What, pray tell, does Rep. Devin Nunes think he’s doing by waving around a secret memo attacking the FBI, the nation’s premier law enforcement agency?

He certainly isn’t representing his Central Valley constituents or Californians, who care much more about health care, jobs and, yes, protecting Dreamers than about the latest conspiracy theory.

Instead, he’s doing dirty work for House Republican leaders trying to protect President Donald Trump in the Russia investigation.

Pointing out Progressive Fascism and jihad on the Constitution is "protecting Trump "

Sure

I note that neither you nor the Fresno Bee want to discuss what that memo means, Tyrone! If a sitting President used what he knew was a phony dossier...paid for by the DNC and Hillary Clinton...and put into play by paid Russians...to obtain a FISA warrant to spy on the other party's Presidential candidate...it's far worse than ANYTHING that Richard Nixon did back in the Watergate days!

Absolutely

and they know it, they also know owners they have nothing of substance on Trump, but they are rehashing their non story and spinning rumors to distract attention from the real story

Simple question for you, Tyrone...

If people in the Obama Administration used the phony dossier to obtain a FISA warrant...knowingly lying to a Federal Judge to do so...should they be held responsible for what they did?

Your stupidity knows no bounds....muelller should not have been appointed in the first place since there was no crime to investigate......you really are pretty stupid.

Attempted collusion to conspire, er, or something

From the bits and pieces that I've seen, it looks like Mueller is confident he can get Trump on obstruction.

As I understand it, that would only be the conclusion of his report, so what would happen next is up for grabs.

Dreamers are way down the list of things that voters care about. Protecting the president from a witch hunt is well within a Congressman's official scope of duties.

Muller belongs in Gitmo, next to Comey, Clapper and at least a dozen others

I'll ask you the same question that Tyrone wants no part of, Eddie...

If people in the Obama Administration used what they knew was a phony dossier to obtain a FISA warrant to spy against the Trump campaign...should they be held responsible for those actions?

 

[2aguy]

When it is confirmed that obama used the hilary documents to lie to a federal judge to get FISA warrants against Trump and his people....these morons will still deny the truth that obama and hilary have created the biggest political and legal scandal in the nation's history...they have brought in the British, the Australians.....they have used our government as their personal secret police..........

I doubt he's confident at all about that.

Sure, there's no real way of knowing. It was just people putting pieces together. We'll see.
