Only a matter of time for Trump. Those who say where is the evidence, are only kidding themselves. Just check out the time lines and you can see how the dots connect. Mueller is following the money. Trump constantly acts like he is hiding something. Felix Sater and Bayrock will be his downfall. Nobody is going to jail for Trump. Because they know he wouldn't do it for them.

The investigation must be getting close to Hillary. Why else would she be asking her lawyer about a plea bargain option? Funny how Comey was drafting a letter exonerating Hillary before the investigation was even over. Nope, no corruption in D.C. Nothing to see here, folks. Nope.

It's ALL lies and corruption...that is why they must ALL go. The D and R parties AND everyone in them.

Why are people still calling Hillary “corrupt” when it is obvious that it was all Russian propaganda? If any of that were really true, Republicans, who now control the entire government, would be doing something. It is Trump who was asking about plea bargains and pardons. It’s not Hillary the Republicans are investigating, it is Trump. Ever notice that?

People are desperately trying to trash Comey because, if Trump fired Comey to impede an investigation that might implicate his own campaign or administration, that is obstruction of justice, a federal crime. Trump admitted on air to NBC News' Lester Holt that he had fired Comey because of "this Russia thing." Trump was warned by the White House counsel, McGahn, that this was a problematic step and decided to do it anyway. It's possible the public will eventually hear what McGahn told the president. If he said anything along the lines of, 'There's potential criminal liability if you shut down this investigation,' that would be extraordinarily powerful evidence against Trump. Miller and anyone else involved in Comey's firing — or drafting the letter — may be accessories or co-conspirators to that crime as well.

Democratic Senator Coons wrote a memo:"Below is a statute to keep in mind in regards to Donald Trump Jr.'s testimony today," then he simply laid out the legal statute for lying to Congress.

Chump Sr. must be apoplectic about how dumb his boy is...and the hole he's digging for himself and 'daddy.' :D

Special Counsel Robert Mueller's team has approached the White House about interviewing staffers who were aboard Air Force One when the initial misleading statement about Donald Trump Jr.'s meeting with a Russian lawyer at Trump Tower was crafted, three sources familiar with the conversations said.

The special counsel's discussions with the White House are the latest indication that Mueller's investigators are interested in the response to the Trump Tower meeting. Mueller wants to know how the statement aboard Air Force One was put together, whether information was intentionally left out and who was involved, two of the sources said. Mueller's questions could go to the issue of intent and possible efforts to conceal information during an obstruction of justice investigation. The answers to Mueller's questions also could illuminate the level of anxiety surrounding the meeting and the decision-making that followed. If Donald Trump knowingly crafted a statement about the meeting with the Russians that he knew to be false, that would certainly appear to be evidence he was trying to obstruct justice and the Mueller investigation.

Hope Hicks—the longtime Trump aide who is currently interim White House communications director—likely has information that will interest Mueller regarding Donald Trump Jr.’s initial claim that his meeting with the Kremlin-linked lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya was just about adoption. Hick’s potential targeting by Mueller also underscores the aggressive direction his probe is increasingly taking. Outside of direct family members, she is, perhaps, closest to Trump. Hicks was on the Air Force One flight back to the United States after the G-20 summit and played a role in drafting the statement on Trump Jr.’s June 2016 meeting between Veselnitskaya and Jared Kushner, Paul Manafort, and Trump Jr.
That statement, which was put together by senior White House officials—including the president himself—turned out to be wildly misleading. Hicks reportedly encouraged a more transparent initial approach in describing the facts of the Trump Tower meeting. But she was ultimately overruled. When The New York Times first reported the existence of the meeting, a statement in Trump Jr.’s name downplayed its significance.

Now that Facebook is no longer denying it, everybody involved, except the Trump campaign, admits to exactly what Russia did here. Can we now look at what they did to see if they had help? If the Republican-led congressional investigations aren't looking into that now, they should have to explain why they're not. Because now there's really no more disagreement about what happened here. The only question is whether there were American confederates involved, and that's a very investigatable thing. The law says you can't spend foreign money to influence U.S. Elections. Even on Facebook ads. This is direct evidence—confirmed by Facebook—of a discreet, clear crime committed in the course of the Russian attack on our election. But it's a crime. Clearly. And if any American knew that crime was happening, if any American was part of the effort to make that happen, that American could absolutely be criminally charged on that matter.

President Trump's former chief of staff Reince Priebus and White House counsel Don McGahn have reportedly both hired a lawyer amid the investigation into Russian election meddling. The news comes after a recent report that special counsel Robert Mueller told the White House his team will seek to interview six senior and former aides to Trump as part of the federal investigation into the Russian election meddling and possible Trump campaign involvement.

Wow Mell, thanks for the update on people hiring attorneys for legal inquiries! I am surprised they just don't convict someone if they hire an attorney?? It would be less taxing on the ecology, all those lights and air conditioning wasted on people that claim they did nothing wrong, but yet hire an attorney!!

Members of President Donald Trump’s legal team wanted Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, out of his White House adviser role in June, over concerns about Kushner’s dealings with Russian officials, The Wall Street Journal reports. Those lawyers were reportedly concerned that Kushner would be a liability in special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into the Trump administration’s alleged ties to Russia, specifically after it was revealed that Kushner failed to mention four meetings with Russian officials on his security-clearance forms.

RT, the Kremlin-backed TV network formerly known as Russia Today, has revealed that one of its American affiliates has been ordered by the US government to register as a “foreign agent” under anti-propaganda laws. RT and Sputnik are both operated by companies funded by the Russian government and both were named in the US intelligence report that in January accused Vladimir Putin of ordering a campaign to influence the US Presidential election. State-owned Russian media made increasingly favourable comments about Trump while consistently offering negative coverage of Clinton.

In an angry online story condemning the move, RT said the US Justice Department had sent a letter ordering the company that supplies all services for the RT America channel to register under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA).

Apparently under the misapprehension that Trump is free to do his bidding, Russian President Vladimir Putin proposed a reset of relations between the United States and Russia across all major branches of government. According to documents detailing the proposal, a Russian diplomat asked the U.S. State Department for an immediate restoration of the diplomatic, military, and intelligence channels that had been severed after Russia intervened in Ukraine and Syria. The documents reportedly show a proposal for several meetings between the two countries to discuss areas of mutual interest. “It just ignores everything that caused the relationship to deteriorate and pretends that the election interference and the Ukraine crisis never happened,” said Angela Stent, a former national intelligence officer on Russia during the George W. Bush administration. “When the Russians submitted this proposal, they were under the impression that Trump would do what he said he would do: Make a deal with Putin and normalize relations.” Reuters reported earlier this year that the FBI is examining whether Gorkov suggested to Kushner that Russian banks could finance Trump associates' business ventures if US sanctions were lifted or relaxed.
