It's so sad that you have to throw your ass out there so fast for the anti Trump, trump hater, anti-republican BS that you throw out constantly now. At least it's out there for everybody to see. And that's a good thing.

The latest payback to Putin:

Russia's state TV (in a panel discussion) asks where Putin will find 8 trillion rubles to implement Putin's agenda. The answer: "Looks like we found it. Trump is withdrawing US from the Iran nuclear deal. Oil prices should go up, which is good for us."

The millions Putin invested in the attacks on the US presidential election will turn out to be the best money he ever spent. Congratulations, Trump supporters, Trump's master is very happy today.

There's a question on whether Trump has to testify if called by the special prosecutor. What did Giuliani have to say about that?

Interviewer asked him what would happen if the president refused to testify. His answer: “Then there is a procedure for handling that. You go before a judge and a judge decides whether or not he has a recognizable exemption or privilege from testifying. And if a judge decides that he doesn’t, you have to testify. You don’t have a choice about it.”

Well, he said that nearly 20 years ago w.r.t. Clinton. Obviously the current President could just choose.

The doj and the Supreme Court both have an opinion on that. And both of them say no he does not have to go.

And why the hell would he want to go really? All he's setting himself up for is it processed rap like scooter Libby got caught in! The whole investigation is a bunch of shit and it's illegal and it needs to end!

In particular, there is no temporary immunity, so it is not required to delay all federal cases until the President leaves office."

The decision was unanimous.

Giuliani's law firm just made him resign. Should be about time for Trump to turn on him.

Giuliani's law firm just made him resign. Should be about time for Trump to turn on him.

So the last lawyer is the subject of investigation. His lead replacement is fired from his law firm. Anything that touches trump is corrupted.

Then Pence, Rushmc, Fox, et al, are all calling for the republican led investigations to end. There are still honest republicans who stand up for the USA.

They didn't fire him. I doubt they wanted Trump's flavor of attention towards the law firm and wanted to ensure there was no appearance of their resources going into the case but that's very different from terminating his employment for cause.

He thought they could control it and direct it to reach the conclusions he desired.

What you post is correct. But that has nothing to do with what I said. The DOJ in the Supreme Court both have the same opinion that is sitting president cannot be indicted. They can only be removed from office through impeachment! They also cannot be made to testify before a grand jury while in office.

The Trump administration did not instigate the special counsel. Rosenstein did after a bogus letter from Comey. It appears now that those two were colluding to get that done. The information is out there in emails that are being collected under FOIA request in by Senate and House panels investigating this crap.

Rosenstein is a Trump appointee. He is part of the Trump administration.

What was bogus about it?

from Comey.

Comey is a Republican.

A Republican Law Enforcement official colluding with a member of the Trump Administration to undermine Trump?

Why do you think his own party hates him so much?

So you're saying that you believe there is absolute proof that your party and the Administration you support are rotten from the inside and colluding against themselves?

I thought you said that all of Trump's picks were stellar?

Some whiny loser liberal who would rather destroy the Constitution than help America's ally Putin out! Probably. He just has to look up what the Executive Branch is . . .

Special counsel probing donations with foreign connections to Trump inauguration
By JOHN SANTUCCI

ABC News

Special counsel Robert Mueller’s team has questioned several witnesses about millions of dollars in donations to President Donald Trump’s inauguration committee last year, including questions about donors with connections to Russia, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, sources with direct knowledge told ABC News.

Those interviewed included longtime Trump friend and confidant Thomas Barrack, who oversaw the fundraising effort, as well as individuals familiar with the massive inaugural fund, according to sources with direct knowledge.

Barrack, a real estate investor, has long been described as a Trump “whisperer” whose close friendship with the president landed him a prime appearance during the GOP convention the night Trump accepted his party’s nomination.

The billionaire runs a fund with hundreds of millions in real estate and private equity holdings in the Middle East. Barrack oversaw the largest inaugural fundraising effort in U.S. history, bringing in $107 million – more than double what President Barack Obama raised for his first swearing-in festivities.

According to a source who has sat with the Mueller team for interviews in recent weeks, the special counsel is examining donors who have either business or personal connections in Russia, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar. Several donors with those ties contributed large sums to the non-profit fundraising entity – gifts that topped out at $1 million dollars, according to public records.

And yet the inauguration itself didn't cost appreciably more, and the administrators of the fund haven't released any details of how much excess rhere was and where it went...

And thanks to the Republican party and its supporters a few years ago, we all know that donations to a non-profit associated with a prominent politician are absolute, 100% evidence of a "pay to play" relationship.

They couldn't possibly backtrack on that now, could they?
