    Opinion | The Trump Campaign Accepted Russian Help to Win in 2016. Case Closed.

    Another nail in the coffin
    But no one is still paying attention enough to do anything

    1. Nothing is going to happen
    2. We’re waiting on the election
    3. Ts teflon makes Reagan look like sandpaper
    4. The Russians themselves are likely adding to the smoke & mirrors (if not continued payoffs)

    My question is
    IF Biden is elected and takes control
    Will something be done???

    A. The Russians who’ve done stuff and continue
    B. T and his administration
    C. His allies, IF they took bribes etc (basic stupidity isn’t illegal)
    D. The election system (all the above to fix)
    E. The cybersecurity which is Swiss cheese

    I don't know if Biden will do much. I would hope that there would be some Benghazi like hearings at the least. And I would expect the Biden administration to try and make it impossible for any Trump to run for office in 2024 or past that.

    But the bigger question is what happens when a political party and it's supporters are OK cheating if it allows them to win?

    And the DOJ wants to defend Shyster Trump against sexual assault charges that happened (allegedly)**before** he was POTUS.

    My tax dollars. Your tax dollars. Our tax dollars. At minimum Shyster is worth 200M. Let him hire and pay for his own attorneys. And reimburse the government, i.e. us, for all costs, such as Secret Service protection.

    Dude, you fucked up...face it
    And you screwed the pooch on announcing a non-starter on Hillary days before the election

    You may investigate fair, but you lost your mission
    And you suck at communicating or politics

    And you helped put in a guy that will tarnish your name forever

    Talk about unintended consequences...


    Comey tries to defend Russia investigation

    ‘Mueller’s pitbull’ has a few regrets

    Duh, anyone that didn't have an agenda against it...and was watching...could tell ya that.
    Frankly, he punted.
    AND Barr repressed as much as he could to minimize it and play it out further.

    Comey screwed up
    Mueller screwed up
    McCabe screwed up
    Rosenstein, Barr and the rest of the T administration did a whole bunch of smoke & mirrors to distract.

    And the public, as a whole, are fools for believing
    As well as those officials who are supposed to be doing the RIGHT THING. Protecting us.

    This has put the whole county into jeopardy
    And reduced out clout and capability in the world...and against out enemies.

    Hell, I'll even blame Obama for being complacent and too "fair" to truly address a VERY serious national security risk.

    As I tell my mother, there's a time to stop being PC and fair...and call the strikes and plays as they are. And ACT on them.

    Get a pair of balls, be the adult, make the call.

    I hope Biden, if he wins, can do this.
    Or will he be like everyone else...and sweep it under the rug???

    He's known for taking every step to CYA
    He'll do the same now and afterwards

    But they should dive in anyway
    The more known the better.

    Go after him??
    I don't know, because even if it may mean justice
    There could be unintended consequences...
    Like keeping him in the spotlight, revving up his base, etc

    Would it be best to let New York do the deed???
    Those aren't federal laws
    And his supporters can't blame Biden, the Dems or the nation.

    Maybe just feed that prosecution behind the scenes...
    Info is info. NTTAWWT ;)

    Now that the FBI and Congress could investigate this without fear of outside influence or retribution, maybe they should get the truth out there, whatever it is. There is plenty of smoke there, but I doubt that Congress or Biden has much desire to have Congress and the media get bogged down in a Congressional hearing on it.

    Considering that that administration had an extreme credibility problem, and worked to intentionally mislead and lie to and evade legitimate questions by the Meuller investigation, pretty much anything can be dismissed from them. Those people lie about eating hot dogs while ketchup and mustard is on their ties and their breath smells like pig assholes. And lindsay Graham is being blackmailed by Putin. Notice his extreme about face of someone who used to have no morals but a little integrity, to being a tool for Trump. Probably a few page molestation videos about, or even a hunky honeypot tape. So yeah, crossfire hurricane can be filed with the magic durham report that's coming any day now. Lock her up! Mexico will pay for the wall! Better cheaper health plan in 30 days.

    Analysis | The weird threats Lindsey Graham and Trump’s lawyer are making about calling impeachment witnesses — The Washington Post

    And now that a new administration is in...
    A new or continuing probe

    Basically, unraveling all the plans and scams of T and his cohorts

    The things they are shouting about
    Are from those who are desperate...And have nothing else to stand on.

    They’re spitballing
    Seeing what sticks, what’s allowed, what they can get away with.

    I think you’re going to see a house of cards collapse
    IF the Dems continue to press forward

    Basically a blowfish
    Trying to scare with air

    Ideally:

    Very clear absolute proof will be found that Conman Trump definitely knew well in advance that an invasion of the Capitol Building was planned.

    Trump will testify, and be tripped up the above proof. He'll first lie about knowing, then brazenly justify his actions by claiming election fraud.

    Reality:

    Even if the above happens, the vast majority of Republican senators will vote to acquit.

    Democrats' big shift in Trump's second impeachment — POLITICO

    Again, I think they should throw everything at him and the kitchen sink.

    Make the GOP squirm, make those in opposition feel like justice is being done by making it on record

    We all know it’s very doubtful the GOP will allow 16 Senators to convict

    So the only thing is to keep shaming them.
    Like a beating drummer

    Sorry, GOP this will be your Benghazi
    What’s good for the goose...

    The BIG difference is, here there was something actually done wrong...illegal, treacherous, dangerous.
    (not caught with your pants down but instigated, cheered on and even planned and plotted)
    HUGE difference.

    Hopefully they're telling the attorneys Conman is going to get convicted.

    At least one of them would greatly benefit from Trump not being able to run in 2024, so I think the media should be hyping up that they might be trying to sink his chances of not getting away with it.

    Acquittal, but Not Vindication

    From the Editors of the National Review, a conservative media outlet.
    That they have even this to say, is striking...but quite frankly, they've not liked Trump. Didn't offer a recommendation for presidency, either time.

    This whole term has mostly about anger...not intellect. Tear it up!
    Which is what the rioters did.

    The Impeachment is a formal process...but totally political in results.

    There will be more...The Probe remains.
    They will find out more...more digging, more reveals.
    And more court cases...
    From States, other countries, etc.

    We haven't even heard from the IRS yet, now that he's out.

    The Probe continues
    It's still finding all the pieces of the body.
