Russia probe lawyers think Mueller could indict Trump
As libs flail around trying to minimize the damage and resulting pain of today's memo, I thought I'd throw them a feel-good story for the day.

Quote:Special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation has gathered enough steam that some lawyers representing key Donald Trump associates are considering the possibility of a historic first: an indictment against a sitting president.

While many legal experts contend that Mueller lacks the standing to bring criminal charges against Trump, at least two attorneys working with clients swept up in the Russia probe told POLITICO they consider it possible that Mueller could indict the president for obstruction of justice.

Neither attorney claimed to have specific knowledge of Mueller’s plans. Both based their opinions on their understanding of the law; one also cited his interactions with the special counsel’s team, whose interviews have recently examined whether Trump tried to derail the probe into his campaign’s Russia ties.

“If I were a betting man, I’d bet against the president,” said one of the lawyers.

RE: Russia probe lawyers think Mueller could indict Trump
What damage? There are reports of the White House itself worrying that the memo will be a dud. 03-lol

But trust me...I'm not getting ahead of my skis here at all. I'll believe an indictment when I see it. Honestly, I hope it doesn't come to that, for the good of the country. This could get really ugly...especially with the news today that Mattis is looking at wagging the dog in Syria.

and this is the reason for the partisan attempts to discredit Robert Mueller.

The damage that the FBI was so hard-up they had to use a Clinton-funded gossip dossier to get a warrant to spy on an American. That damage.

I can recall when the left was against such tactics, typically when (D) is in the White House. If ® is in the White House, then the ends justify the means.

No its not. We do not know the information the judge used to base his judgement on the issuance of the initial FISA warrant or its subsequent renewal.

This is a provable LIE!!! Is this against the AUP. Serious question. if you don't know it's a lie let me educate you. The original FISA warrant had nothing to do with the Dossier. Carter Page was on the radar long before the Steele Dossier. Please stop this lie.

I know you like to read articles Tech that tell you how to think. I know you are not used to providing evidence for your claims.

I'm going to try and give you a yellow brick road on how it's done. I claimed that the original FISA warrant had nothing to do with the Dossier. Here is proof. Try this line of discussion sometime.

From the article cited:
After all, if there were 40 pieces of evidence cited, one of which came from Steele, even if Steele’s evidence were somehow inappropriate to include (again, not necessarily a fair assumption) there would still be 39 other reasons that a warrant might be justified.

Three years before Page became an adviser to the Trump campaign, he came to the attention of FBI counterintelligence agents, who learned that Russian spy suspects had sought to use Page as a source for information.

THREE YEARS BEFORE THE DOSSIER. Say that to yourself 10 times

RE: Russia probe lawyers think Mueller could indict Trump
I will wait patiently for someone to explain—obstruction of what exactly? Best I can tell, there was no collusion. Worse yet, even if what everything Mika and Joe say is true, the Trump campaign would be guilty of obtaining truthful negative information about a US political candidate and passing that information to the American public. That’s not illegal and is done by reporters every day. It was also done by the Democrats and we have actual proof of it (the fake Russian dossier and the money trail). So if Dems are worried about Russian interference—why are they so unwilling to follow that evidence trail?

The only way the Trump campaign is in trouble is if they paid for or conspired with the Russians to hack the Democrat HQ emails—and nobody has ever suggested that.

OK TECH. You have used fake dossier.

Please provide a link where it is fake. I have PROVED beyond a shadow of a doubt your lie that the Dossier opened the FISA investigation. You prove the Dossier is fake which YOU have posted.

You can't conspire when to release stolen information. That is conspiracy. Their own words will be their undoing.

Trump penning an untruthful message aboard Air Force One about the Trump Jr. meeting is obstruction.

PROVABLE LIE!

Please quit this lie. Unless you were just uneducated because people told you how to think.

Might want to email the people you read to update their bullet points Tech.

Again. Obstruction of what? The meeting wasn’t about emails. At worst it was about Hillary dirt. Furthermore, this same attorney met with DNC officials just before the Trump campaign meeting and just after the Trump campaign meeting....if this was conspiracy to wreck the Hillary campaign—why was she meeting with the DNC more than the Trump campaign? Your ability to ignore what you don’t want to be true is pretty much unmatched outside of a handful of zealots on MSNBC.

Did anybody tell you how you should respond. Any WSJ article with bullet points??????


bwahhhhaahhaaaaaaaa

Listen. Sometimes I have fun in the morass of life. You are just too easy of a target.

OK let's go a different route. YOU stated that the Dossier opened up a FISA investigation. DO YOU HAVE ANY PROOF OF THIS??????? or are you talking out of your south orifice again?
