I disagree. That said, they should've done the questioning in reverse. Hearing two should have been first. It highlights the importance of what was revealed in hearing one.

Explain.

Without any context it just sounds like the countdown clock to Trump's impeachment broke again.

I don't have the time or the desire to catch you up on what is obvious. Besides, Trump fans will continue to:

A) Hate the Dems
B) Suk Trump dik.

Which one are you? < / trick question >

Brutal because Mueller is showing signs of early dementia and the GOP is full of flaming arseholes.

I don't see any change, T. If there's no impeachment then what's the point of all of this? To give MSM something to act all excited about and fill their shows with? The Report was issued, people read it or didn't, most didn't. Nothing has changed. I appreciate your optimism but I don't share it. Trump's a piece of sh*t and has broken laws and hasn't paid for a single one and likely will not until 2020.

Although the Democrats and polls laughably are setting you guys up for another huge cry when Trump wins again in 2024.

Adam Schiff, the chair of the House Intelligence Committee, ended the hearing with a clear, precise exchange with Mueller.

Schiff, in his closing questions to Mueller, asked if “knowingly accepting assistance from a foreign government,” to which Mueller responded “a crime.”

Schiff continued, adding that if knowingly accepting assistance from a “foreign government during a presidential campaign is an unethical thing to do.”

“And a crime in certain circumstances,” Mueller responded.

Schiff continued: “To the degree that it undermines our democracy and our institutions, we can agree that it’s also unpatriotic.”

“True,” Mueller replied, in a rare instance of directly answering a question outside the confines of the report.

Jordan, Gohmert, and Gaetz ripped the pathetic fool to shreds today, exposing him as nothing more than an incompetent and biased political hack. As had been predicted the Democraps really screwed the pooch having Mueller testify.

Lieu: "The reason again that you did not indict Donald Trump is because of OLC opinion stating you cannot indict a sitting president, correct?"

Mueller: "That is correct."

Demmings: "Isn’t it fair to say that the president’s written answers were not only inadequate and incomplete because he didn’t answer many of your questions, but where he did his answers showed he wasn’t always being truthful."

Mueller: "I would say, generally."

I'd love to see what a 2 year, 25 million dollar investigation of Schiff or Mueller dug out of their closets. (Or any politician or high ranking government employee for that matter).

My guess is that we'd have to impeach the whole f'kin government.

Three words: John Hinckley Junior. That is my idea of the happy medium for Trump. Or if you want less bloodshed in a happy medium, the House could audit Trump's tax returns. The House once did that to Nixon and it cost him half of his net worth to pay the taxes owed. I would be pleased if Trump had to pay half of his net worth.

You guys are going to be mighty disappointed when Horowitz and Durham complete their investigations.

Russiagate is a hoax created by corrupt parts of the intelligence agencies in the USA, Britain, Australia and Ukraine, plus corrupt heads of media and the worst parts of the DNC.

This isn't a "win" for Russia, this was just the deep state shooting itself in the foot.

Incorrect. Reagan was not assassinated. He only took a bullet, then he finished his term in office. That is why I used John Hinckley Jr., not John Wilkes Booth, as my example.

Adam Schiff’s Devastating Indictment Of Trump’s ‘Disloyalty To Country’

Schiff: The president has said over and over that your report totally exonerated him. Did it?

MUELLER: No. The president has been lying to the American people.

Schiff: The president has said over and over that your report found no evidence of obstruction. Was he correct?

MUELLER: No. The president has been lying to the American people.

Schiff: The president has said over and over that your report found no evidence of collusion. Is that a fair reading?

MUELLER: No. The president has been lying to the American people.

Schiff: The president has said over and over that your office was conducting a witch hunt. True?

MUELLER: No. The president has been lying to the American people.

I haven’t used quotation marks above, but that’s what it boils down to.

Mueller’s verbal dryness, amid the florid grandstanding and indignant rhetoric of his questioners, was like the rustling pages of an old book. Whenever a questioner tried to put words in his mouth, he said something like “I’m not certain I agree with your characterization.” I like the perfect reserve of that sentence, which could mean anything between “I respectfully beg to differ” and “Fuck you.” You can put Mueller on television, but, apparently, you can’t make him do television.

Never is when Trump goes to jail. Since Trump won't admit fault, will fight publicly, has appointed thousands of Trump-friendly judges, has tens of millions of Trump-friendly jurors who will never vote guilty, and can afford to litigate for decades, he won't be in jail before he dies from dementia.

Buckle up, buttercup. In today's political climate, I think the best that any president can ever hope for the rest of our lives is just a little north of 50%.

Didn't you say that since Hillary Clinton isn't a politician anymore she is old news and nobody should care about her anymore? Once Trump is out of office it doesn't work like that. Huh?

lol

You just need to let it go man. Nobody is ever going to go after the Clintons. After Trump is out of office, nobody is ever going to go after the Trumps.



I find it very telling that you seem to be a-okay with Second's "Hinkley dream". This is at least the 5th time Second has brought up the topic of assassination in the RWED, and several times even suggested he'd like to do it himself and knows how to get away with it.

At least T has the decency to call Second out on that. Or at least he did in the past.

Look what you guys are becoming.

Remember Benghazi? Was it 7 or more times they tried to get her for that? Hate to blow your fantasy, but just like Benghazi, she hasn't done anything. Besides, you Trump monkeys are so well trained just hearing her name makes you jump - mission accomplished.

Whereas Trump is guilty as sh*t. Did you see those 4 crimes I listed? Just don't want to look?

Funny thing - I was going to reply to that comment of his by saying that would only make the divide in this country even greater, which would only play into Putin's hands. Just didn't, mainly because I doubt second would care what I or anyone here had to say about what he said. He doesn't strike me as the kind of person who looks to others for advice - so why bother?

Mueller showed the world this is undeniably a scam investigation and that the REAL criminals are now being sought after via the I.G.

Clinton committed perjury as a sitting President. He was stripped of his law license.

The question for Mueller has always been whether Russia interfered in an election (it did), whether Trump benefited (he did), and whether he tried to stymie the investigation into this concern (he did). All of that was laid bare on Wednesday for anyone who was listening. Trump campaign members were exchanging polling data with Russian intelligence operatives and hosting meetings at Trump Tower in order to obtain “dirt” on Hillary Clinton’s campaign. Trump was lying about all the Russia contacts before he was even caught lying about it.

Mueller was originally charged with investigating Russian efforts to influence the outcome of the 2016 election. Only later was he tasked with figuring out whether the president had obstructed justice by impeding that investigation. The whole point of this sad affair — lost entirely on a Law & Order nation intent on seeing either Trump in handcuffs or exonerated — was that Russia hacked an election, that it is right now hacking the next election, and that this is a threat to national security and representative democracy. On this one point, Mueller was emphatic: “They’re doing it as we sit here, and they expect to do it in the next campaign.”

Signym, the Senate Intelligence Committee concluded Thursday that election systems in all 50 states were targeted by Russia in 2016, an effort more far-reaching than previously acknowledged and one largely undetected by the states and federal officials at the time.
www.intelligence.senate.gov/sites/default/files/documents/Report_Volum
e1.pdf


Trump equates any public discussion of malign Russian election activity with questions about the legitimacy of his victory.

While the Senate Intelligence Committee’s findings were bipartisan, they came on a day when Mitch McConnell, Senate majority leader, moved again to block consideration of election security legislation.

SECONDRATE, you're a dyed-in-the-wool nutbag. There are two allegations of Russian "interference" in our election

1) The Kremlin-based Internet Research Agency (IRA). The IRA's case is being decided in court, even as we post. So far, Mueller's "case" against the IRA is so evidence-free that the presiding judge, Judge Dabney Freidrich, has banned Mueller, BY COURT ORDER, from even insinutating that the IRA had Kremlin connections. She deemed such utterances as "prejudicial". This isn't the only time when Mueller flubbed thi case. There are too many citations for this ruling, but here are just a few

Quote:

In Major Blow to Mueller, Federal Judge Rebukes Mueller and DOJ For Falsely Claiming ‘Russian Bot Farm’ Linked to Russian Government

/

Judge Shreds Mueller ‘Evidence’ Of Kremlin Meddling
https://nationandstate.com/2019/07/11/judge-shreds-mueller-evidence-of

/



So, no evidence so far of Russian "meddling" through this troll farm.

2) Wikileaks publication of DNC/ Podesta emails. Assange told the press that he had the emails BEFORE Guccifer2.0 ever contacted him. Mueller never talked to Assnge.

Mueller never talked to Assange. Mueller never examined the DNC servers. The only "evidence" that Mueller can come up with is from Crowdstrike, an anti-Russian DNC-paid contractor. Once again, the "evidence" that Mueller points to evporates on examination.

Now, I haven't spoken to a lawyer on the matter of inernet libel. But hey, you're the guy with the big bucks. Why don't you consult with your lawyers and check out your legal exposure? You might find out something interesting. (Oh, I see you post-edited you calling me a "Russian troll". Maybe you DID talk to a lawyer!

Signym, yesterday the Senate said you are full of shit.
www.intelligence.senate.gov/sites/default/files/documents/Report_Volum
e1.pdf


The report, black lines and all, is titled “Russian Efforts Against Election Infrastructure.” It is the first volume the committee has publicly released, following more than 200 witness interviews and the collection and review of nearly 400,000 documents. Subsequent volumes will deal with Russia’s effort to use social media to influence voters — an area where Russian interference may have changed minds, and thus votes — and the 200 or so contacts between Russia and members of the Trump campaign.

In a statement, Senator Richard M. Burr, Republican of North Carolina and the chairman of the committee, described the events of 2016 as one in which the United States was blindsided.

“In 2016, the U.S. was unprepared at all levels of government for a concerted attack from a determined foreign adversary on our election infrastructure,” Mr. Burr wrote. “Since then, we have learned much more about the nature of Russia’s cyberactivities and better understand the real and urgent threat they pose.”

That's not relevant to what you quoted Second. I'm talking about you.

If you don't feel that assassination is the happy medium between impeachment and doing nothing, then you shouldn't say it. Multiple times. Sometimes even saying how much you would enjoy being the one to do it and that you know how you could get away with it too.

Even if you really do feel that way, I suggest you stop saying it. Even if nobody is watching you, you just come off as unhinged every time you bring it up and discredit any other opinions you hold about anything.

Dianne Feinstein, former head of the Senate Intelligence (ahem!) Committee, wrote to me "I know things" and assured me that Saddam had WMD. Nearly the entire Senate voted for the war in Iraq. They voted for the so-called Patriot Act. Do you think that I'd let THEM decide for me what's real and what isn't? They couldn't find their ass with both hands hands and a flashlight.

Oh and btw- you're full of shit too.

Mueller made it clear that his largest concern is with Russia’s extraordinary effort to disrupt U.S. democratic processes. As he put it, “The Russian government interfered in our election in sweeping and systematic fashion.”

On one of the rare occasions when he went beyond his role as a lawyer, he said this:

"Over the course of my career, I have seen a number of challenges to our democracy. The Russian government’s effort to interfere in our election is among the most serious. And as I said on May 29, this deserves the attention of every American."

In his report and testimony, Mueller depicts the Trump campaign not as conspiring or coordinating with Russia, but as enthusiastically welcoming its efforts.

Republicans in the Senate have twice in 24 hours blocked the advancement of bills aimed at strengthening election security just hours after former special counsel Robert Mueller warned of the continued threat that foreign powers interfering in US elections.

Russian state TV experts and pundits were pleased. Olga Skabeeva happily stated: “Zero people blamed Russia for election interference — zero times!” And she added later: “We’re officially laughing at their allegations of election interference.”

In keeping with the tradition of Russian state television, Skabeeva lied: “We didn’t interfere in anything and even Mueller said so.” Mueller did not say so.

Why did The Clinton Foundation take 145 million from Russia and others connected to the UraniumOne deal, which Hillary as SecState had approved ?

Trump DIDN'T build a building, btw. Just like he DIDNT fire Mueller and DIDNT collude with any Russians nor obstruct justice ( Mueller's own conclusion )

SO fucking tired of this obvious shell game and assault of our legal system by crooked politicians and deep state thugs.

That was not what happened when Mueller testified to Congress. Then Trump had to completely and totally outdo Sarah Huckabee Sanders:

No question they are definitely trolls with a POV that aligns very closely to what an actual RT (ha!) would have. You make the call.

Here's a question for you that you will probably not answer: are you stupid enough to think Russia wouldn't try and hack our election again? Or our infrastructure, power plants etc.? I think most Trump fan wanks would answer like AU did, "Don't care," which is truly amazing. Head meet sand.

Yanno, you fucking nitwit, I've already explained, in this very thread even! why I don't think that Russia "hacked" anything. But just so you can't say that I didn't explain it, I'm going to explain it AGAIN and point out the deficiencies in the Mueller report and maybe you'll get it this time. If not, it's not for lack of information:

Mueller made a series of allegations which are kind of stitched together into a loose narrative even tho no real connections were made

1) The DNC/Podesta emails were "hacked" by "Russia". This was reported by Crowdstrike, a DNC-paid anti-Russian organization with NO independent examination of the servers by the FBI. There were numerous files, terrabytes of data, and yet the NSA didn't manage to capture a single packet of that data moving online overseas.

2) A person named Guccifer2.0 claimed to have the files, and some Russian_based formatting marks were found in his files.

3) The insinution is that Guccifer 2.0 (a "Russian") gave the files to Julian Assange. However, Assange announced publically that he was going to publish files BEFORE Guccifer ever contacted him, and the meta-data of Assange's files indicates that they were transferred to a thumb drive, not transmitted online. Assange directly said that the files did not come from Russia or anyone related to Russia. And yet, Mueller never DID question Assange, just like the DNC servers were never examined. It looks a lot like a man who is trying hard NOT to dig up evidence that might weaken his "case", such as it was.

4) There is an organization called the "Internet Research Agency" which was credited with "help

5) This IRA troll-farm was claimed by Mueller to be directly linked to the Kremlin. However, there is NO evidence to back that up; the evidence is SO paltry that the presiding judge in the case forbade Mueller by court order from even insinuating that there was ANY connection to Putin. Eventually this will be decided in court. Are you going to claim that the presiding judge is a Russian troll too?

The D.N.C. immediately hired CrowdStrike, a cybersecurity firm, to scan its computers, identify the intruders and build a new computer and telephone system from scratch. Within a day, CrowdStrike confirmed that the intrusion had originated in Russia, Mr. Sussmann said.
The D.N.C. executives and their lawyer had their first formal meeting with senior F.B.I. officials in mid-June ... Among the early requests at that meeting, according to participants: that the federal government make a quick “attribution” formally blaming actors with ties to Russian government for the attack ... (NOTE: THE DNC REQUESTED THAT THE FBI MAKE A QUICK ATTRIBUTION TO RUSSIA, despite the fact that the FBI never examined the servers directly, but instead relied on the Crowdstrike report for all their information.)

I don't agree with much you guys have to say about anything regarding politics, and I think you're severely being mislead with the Russiagate stuff, but I did want to comment that I appreciate that you've more or less maintained your sanity through all of this.

Marcos, Second and Wishy have gone off the deep end and have become hard supporters of censorship, violence, murder and hate. While Wishy and Marco's focus with this seems rather nebulous, Second has twice this week advocated for the assassination of Trump (later backpedaling that he was just calling for an attempted yet failed assassination), and just today he's suggested that I murder my old boss and take all of his money (the second time he's told me to do this).

YES. THEY HAVE.

Second in particular has called for an assassination of Trump. Then this morning he told me that I should murder my old boss and steal everything he owns. This is at least the 6th time he's called for Trump's assassination, and even T is on the record here denouncing Seconds words. This is also the second time that he has told me that I should murder my old boss.

Every post that Wishy makes is dripping with hate and has recently delved into the territory of calling for violence.

I'm thinking that Dan Coats had enough of Trump's lazy, do-nothing attitude toward the most difficult duties involved with the job of being President.

If Trump won't do his job, he can drop dead because V.P. Mike Pence will be available and can do what Trump won't. By the way, 6ix, if you can't deal with the tiny stresses of your little life, from raccoons to rotting wood steps, drop dead. I know there is no Vice President of 6ixStringJack affairs (or a spouse or children) to immediately step forward and take over your responsibilities, but what are those responsibilities, anyway? Oh, now that I think of it, you don't have any. Feel free in the future if you ever work again to beat some sense into your awful bosses in exchange for better pay. If the bosses fight back, what is the worst that could happen to you? Be unemployed? You are already there. Lose your wife and kids or even you dearly loved pets? Don't have any. Get arrested by the police? Free room and board for you, you have said. There is really no downside for you to go violent and break the laws, except for losing the right to vote for Trump in 2020.

He seems immune to people that want to help him, goes in the opposite direction. Crazy, he actually reminds me of me at one point in my life. The way I got out of my social blackhole was by giving up in a way. I said, "f*ck it, I'm going to loose my ego and just LISTEN to what others have to say." And I was more forgiving of myself, took a vacation from being self critical. I lowered expectations across the board, as well, for everyone. Everyone got a blank check from me, "be whoever you want, no judgement."
The moment I did that it was like an enormous weight was lifted, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh....

It's actually not that bad most days. I'm making headway. Once I get the place cleared out and cleaned up I'm going to get a realtor in here to at least get some figures of just selling it as-is vs. what's the most I could hope to get for it in the current market if I put money into it.

It will be nice when I don't have to deal with any of it anymore, for sure.

But the lawn has never looked better than it does now. The raccoon problem has been remedied. I'm having a bit of a tougher time getting rid of the ants, but they're not in the house... at least we finally have our first dry summer in 5 years so their activity has been minimal. No flooding issues either for a while.

I'm in the process of pricing out some things that I have that might make it okay to just walk away from the situation and take a hit in the amount of money I could make by fixing up the house and just being done with it, assuming I can find a buyer. I've got two beautiful oil paintings of Notre Dame, one of which still has a very old pricetag from Marshall Fields that said $1,450 on it. I've got 5 Civil War prints, two of them are copyrighted in the late 1800's.

Do you know anybody who would be interested in a 1980 Gibson ES-335TD that's damn near mint? Even if I got back into playing guitar I'll never be good enough to play that thing.

Prior to last week, most Americans had never heard of John Ratcliffe. But in the testimony of former special counsel Robert Mueller before the House Judiciary and Intelligence committees, the second-term Republican Texas congressman put on quite a show.

He berated Mueller for stating that President Donald Trump was not fully exonerated in his eponymous report on his findings of the nearly two-year-long investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and the possibility of obstruction of justice by the President.

What did Trump award Ratcliffe for his services? The US top intelligence job. That ain't gonna end well for running those agencies effectively.

Guys like Ratcliffe, 6ix, and Trump need their asses beaten for what they are and how they live their lives. I've been sympathizing with Trump voters I've known for 50 years in Texas, but these guys never learn that it's not the government that ruined their lives; it is their own fault, whether it is drinking, smoking, over-eating, crashing their pickups into light-poles, getting divorced or fired or going bankrupt. It's their own damn fault and they need to be told that constantly until they stop imagining their problems are caused out there somewhere in Washington, D.C. Their problem is inside their head. It is that brain of theirs not running right.

(Now I don't have to be so sympathetic to those old voters for Trump. They are dead. Their livers gave out or their lungs or suicide or their Ex-wife shot them dead and good riddance. I don't think any Federal programs out of D.C. could possibly have saved them from their brains and their self-delusions.)

Remember talking about not putting people into boxes, Captain?

Second just put me in the same box as Radcliffe and Trump.

What a silly man he is.



I've taken full responsibility for my actions Second. I'm a recovered alcoholic who's dealing with a lot of the problems he's created for himself. It's not easy, but I don't imagine that genuine recovery ever is.


Monday's almost halfway over. Don't you have a business to run instead of trying to kick people when they're down?



And no. I reject your suggestion to murder my old boss and take everything he has. You should consider yourself lucky that none of the people you fired for their political beliefs are as unhinged as you are.

Just how dead is the RussiaGate story — and how brain-dead are the House Democratic Committee chairmen, Nadler (Judiciary Committee) and Schiff (Intelligence Committee) to haul RussiaGate’s front-man, Robert Mueller back into the spotlight where the next thing to roll over and die will be Mr. Mueller’s evanescent reputation? The entrapment operation that was the Special Counsel’s covert mission has turned out to be Mr. Mueller own personal booby-trap, prompting the question: is it possible that he’s just not very bright?

Though Mr. Mueller’s final report asserted that the Russian government interfered in “a sweeping and systemic fashion” to influence the 2016 election, the 450-page great tome contains zero evidence to support that claim, and the discrepancy was actually noticed by federal judge Dabney Friedrich who is presiding over the case against the alleged Russian Facebook trolls that was one of the two tent-poles in the RussiaGate fantasy. The case is now blowing up in Robert Mueller’s face.

In early 2018, Mr. Mueller sold a DC grand jury on producing indictments against a Russian outfit called the Internet Research Agency and its parent company Concord Management, owned by Russian oligarch Yevgeny Prigozhin for the so-called election meddling. The indictment was celebrated as a huge coup at the time by the likes of CNN and The New York Times, styled as a silver bullet in the heart of the Trump presidency. But the indicted parties were all in Russia, and could not be extradited, and there was zero expectation that any actual trial would ever take place — leaving Mueller & Co. off-the-hook for proving their allegations.

To the great surprise of Mr. Mueller and his “team,” Mr. Prigozhin hired some American lawyers to defend his company in court. Smooth move. It automatically triggered the discovery process, by which the accused is entitled to see the evidence that prosecutors hold. It turned out that Mr. Mueller’s team had no evidence that the Russian government was involved with the Facebook pranks. This annoyed Judge Friedrich, who ordered Mr. Mueller and his lawyers to desist making public statements about Concord and IRA’s alleged “sweeping and systemic” collusion with Russia, and threatened legal sanctions if they did.

Judge Friedrich’s rulings were unsealed in early July, after Messers Nadler and Schiff had already scheduled Mr. Mueller’s testimony before their committees. And now they’re stuck with him. The only purpose of his appearance was to repeat and reinforce the narrative that the Russian government interfered in the election, which he is now forbidden to do, at least in connection to the Concord and IRA’s activities. But the other tentpole of the two-year-plus inquisition has also collapsed: the allegation that Russian intel hacked the DNC servers. It’s now a matter of public record that the DNC servers were never examined by federal officials. They were purportedly scrutinized by a DNC contractor called CrowdStrike, co-founded by Russian Dimitri Alperovitch, an adversary of Vladimir Putin, active in US-based anti-Putin lobbying and PR. CrowdStrike’s “draft” report on their review of the server was laughably incomplete, and the Mueller team’s lawyers took no steps to validate it.

It would be interesting to hear Robert Mueller’s explanation for how come US computer forensic experts were never dispatched to take possession of the DNC servers. Surely a ranking member on either House committee would have to ask him that, along with many other embarrassing questions about the stupendously sloppy and disingenuous work of the Special Counsel’s team. It was only one glaring omission among many.

The whole affair now takes on tragic contours of Shakespearean dimensions. The Attorney General, Mr. Barr, is said to be an “old friend” of Mr. Mueller. They clashed pretty publicly after the release of Mr. Mueller’s long-awaited final report. Mr. Barr must at least be dismayed by the bad faith and deliberate deceit in his old friend’s final report, and he really

It's not up to ME to decide whether the IRA was getting its orders from the Kremlin, the "evidence" (what little there was of it) was redacted BUT THERE IS A COURT CASE GOING ON OVER THAT VERY ISSUE, and the people deciding guilty or not will be able to see ALL of the evidence and make a decision based on that.

Cartoon Meanwhile-on-Parallel-Earth:

It's time once again to check in on parallel Earth -- a world very much like our own, yet strangely divergent!
www.dailykos.com/stories/2019/7/29/1874727/-Cartoon-Meanwhile-on-Paral
lel-Earth


On parallel Earth, President Donald Trump robs a bank in broad daylight:
"I have an Article Two! I can do anything I want! Many people don't know this!"

Parallel Fox News leaps to the President's Defense:
"The robber was wearing a mask! How do we know it wasn't Hillary Clinton?"

Two years later, parallel Robert Mueller issues a report:
"If we were confident the president didn't rob a bank in broad daylight, we would've said so."

Trump rages endlessly on parallel Twitter:
"Witch hunt! Fake news! Why didn't 32 angry Democrats investigate the real robber, crooked Hillary?"
"No obstruction! No bank robbery! Full exoneration!"
"Make parallel America great again!"

Eventually, Mueller testifies:
"To clarify, does your report exonerate the president of robbing a bank in broad daylight?"
"I would say that generally it does not."

The apologists switch gears:
"Mueller doesn't have the authority to exonerate! It's a meaningless concept!"
"Why are we even talking about it?"
"What are words, even?"

Meanwhile, very serious pundits discussed the theatrics of it all:
"The optics were terrible! Mueller did not pound his fist on the desk and provide shows such as ours with a viral video clip!"
"At long last, has Mueller no sense of priorities?"

No tick tock because it requires 67 Senators to remove a President, but not even one GOP Senator would vote to remove Trump, no matter what he does, other than Trump killing and eating a baby on live TV. The baby would also have to be an American citizen, white, and cute. The only other strategy that will work is to convince the voters in 2020 to remove Trump.

Lots of things go on without Putin's approval, or even his knowledge. Heck, just look at the recent demonstrations in Moscow. Do you think he controls the minutae of every single moment of every Russian's life? I read (in the English-language versions of Russian press) often enough about MAJOR problems that have gone on for years that were finally found and corrected ... the Admiral of the Northern Fleet, for example, who was canned because he had been faking readiness reports for years. The person in charge of the space program being arrested for embezzlement. And all of that is supposedly within the Kremlin's purview, and I'm sure there's lots of stuff that isn't even caught. It's a big country, and not as controlled as you think, apparently!

There were many articles about that on the internet, some of them addressed the problems with the discovery process, some didn't. If you want, I'll retrieve a few of the ones that discuss the whole discovery process for you. But, of course, you'll just find some other quibble.

On Friday, Mueller’s prosecutors disclosed that Concord’s attorneys, Eric Dubelier and Kate Seikaly, had made a slew of discovery requests demanding nonpublic details about the case and the investigation. Prosecutors also asked a judge to postpone the formal arraignment of Concord Management set for next week.

https://www.politico.com/story/2018/05/04/mueller-russia-interference-

The purported reason for the requested delay was that Mueller's team was concerned that the defendants hadn't been properly served.

As it turns out, once THAT reason was rejected, the Mueller team asked for ANOTHER delay, this time for the reason that they needed more time to gather the evidence. THAT delay, which was also requested by the defendent's lawyers, was granted.
https://dailycaller.com/2018/05/23/mueller-delay-russia-trial/

Seems to me that the evidence should have already been prepared. How does it look when a proseccutor gets to trial and has to ask for a halt because they don't have their ducks in a row?

On Friday, Mueller’s prosecutors disclosed that Concord’s attorneys, Eric Dubelier and Kate Seikaly, had made a slew of discovery requests demanding nonpublic details about the case and the investigation. Prosecutors also asked a judge to postpone the formal arraignment of Concord Management set for next week.

The purported reason for the requested delay was that Mueller's team was concerned that the defendants hadn't been properly served.

As it turns out, once THAT reason was rejected, the Mueller team asked for ANOTHER delay, this time for the reason that they needed more time to gather the evidence. THAT delay, which was also requested by the defendent's lawyers, was granted.

Seems to me that the evidence should have already been prepared. How does it look when a proseccutor gets to trial and has to ask for a halt because they don't have their ducks in a row?

Question from Rep. Tom McClintock (R-Calif.) to Mueller: “Your report famously links Russian Internet troll farms with the Russian government. Yet, at a hearing on May 28th in the Concord Management IRA prosecution that you initiated, the judge excoriated both you and Mr. Barr for producing no evidence to support this claim. Why did you suggest Russia was responsible for the troll farms, when, in court, you’ve been unable to produce any evidence to support it?”

McClintock attacked Mueller with an interesting argument that mirrors one of the defenses offered by Russian President Vladimir Putin.

In his line of questioning, McClintock pushed back on a widely accepted finding from the U.S. intelligence community and the Justice Department: that Russia's government ordered up a social-media influence campaign to help Trump and hurt Clinton.

Before Mueller’s grand jury indicted 12 Russian intelligence officers working directly for Putin’s government, it indicted several Russian individuals working for a “troll farm” called the Internet Research Agency. Two Russian companies — called Concord Catering and Concord Management and Consulting — provided the Internet Research Agency with millions of dollars to buy digital ads and to pump pro-Trump and anti-Clinton messaging into the U.S. ecosystem in 2016, Mueller’s indictment alleges.

Among those indicted was Yevgeniy Viktorovich Prigozhin, one of the richest men in Russia. Prigozhin “controlled” the two Concord companies that funded the troll farm and directed its work, Mueller alleged. “He is a caterer who has been nicknamed ‘Putin’s chef’ because of his close ties to Russian President Vladimir Putin,” The Washington Post reported. The New York Times reported that Prigozhin has received contracts from the Russian government worth $3.1 billion over the past five years, citing research by the Anti-Corruption Foundation, a group set up by Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny.

The U.S. Treasury Department in 2016 imposed sanctions on Prigozhin and Concord over Russia’s occupation of Crimea and military actions in Ukraine, and then imposed more sanctions in 2018 based on “malicious cyber-enabled activities.” “Prigozhin has extensive business dealings with the Russian Federation Ministry of Defense, and a company with significant ties to him holds a contract to build a military base near the Russian Federation border with Ukraine,” the Treasury Department said in 2016 when it announced Prigozhin’s Ukraine-related sanctions. “Russia has been building additional military bases near the Ukrainian border and has used these bases as staging points for deploying soldiers into Ukraine.”

In a 2018 news conference with Trump in Helsinki, Putin said Concord did not “represent” or “constitute” the

SECONDRATE: WHICH IS WHY THIS HAS TO BE DEALT WITH IN TRIAL.

I'm not the one making claims about the IRA ...CC, JO et al are. I've seen a few examples of IRA's activities that the breathless press provided ... maybe a couple dozen examples in all over the past two years. I'm sure the M$M provided the most controversial ones, and even THOSE were pretty unfocused. What did the totality of their USA content look like? do they post content in any other nation? What does THAT look like? Can they credibly demonstrate that this is a commercial, money-making operation, and not a political one? Is there a demonstrable connection between Putin and this Russian? (It seems that everyone in Russia who makes our news is described as having "close ties to Putin". Damn, that guy has a lot of close friends!)

I don't know, and neither do you, and the M$M is (finally) admitting that they don't know either. But it sure served as a good excuse to censor the internet! So, MISSION ACCOMPLISHED, Bob Mueller!

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump tweeted this morning:

Go out and get Andrew McCarthy’s new book, “Ball of Collusion.” “Supervision became the investigator, and when they pushed the envelope, there was nobody there to tell them NO. It goes right to the President (Obama). Plenty of information that Obama was informed & knew exactly what they were doing. There’s plenty of indication, we don’t have to speculate.” @SteveDoocy “Holy cow, got to read this book.” @ainsleyearhardt “WOW!” @foxandfriends A very serious situation. Can never be allowed to happen again! DRAIN THE SWAMP

The full title of the book Trump promotes is:

Ball of Collusion: The Plot to Rig an Election and Destroy a Presidency

"The public was led to believe that Trump conspired with Russia to steal the election. Not one to sit passively through an onslaught, President Trump fought back in his tumultuous way. Matters came to a head when he fired his FBI director, who had given explosive House testimony suggesting the president was a criminal suspect, despite privately assuring Trump otherwise. The resulting firestorm of partisan protest cowed the Justice Department to appoint a special counsel, whose seemingly limitless investigation bedeviled the administration for two years.

A doughty group of lawmakers forced a shift in the spotlight from Trump to his investigators and accusers. This has exposed the depth of politicization within American law-enforcement and intelligence agencies. It is now clear that the institutions on which our nation depends for objective policing and clear-eyed analysis injected themselves scandalously into the divisive politics of the 2016 election."

But what Trump says happened is not what happened. It is as if Trump didn't believe his own Dept of Justice, but always huffing and puffing with pride at himself for winning the election without any interference :
"To ensure a full and thorough investigation of the Russian government’s efforts to interfere in the 2016 presidential election, I hereby order as follows:(a) Robert S. Mueller III is appointed to serve as Special Counsel for the United States Department of Justice."
