It’s kind of pathetic all Mueller got was stuff happened before 2014. Only one conviction for FARA since 1966. I am sure Manafort will have no problem turning on Trump if Mueller let’s him walk, which he will. The problem is he has nothing on Trump because the collusion didn’t happen.


It's early days yet. Patience.


It is nearing the end. American people are sick of seeing their tax dollars wasted.

A. Mueller has exhausted witnesses unless he wants to conduct fishing expedition for stuff not related to elections. I don't believe Mueller is a Ken Star type of person.

B. If he decides to conduct witch hunt further, congress will defund his operation

or

C. Trump fires Mueller



So Russian troll farm worker is now expert on American politics?

You're reading it all wrong. The Papadopolous plea bargain was announced to send a message. The indictment notes that he has been cooperating with the investigation since July. He did a bunch of things that could have gotten him jail time, but the only thing he's actually charged with is a single count of lying to the FBI. Ergo, his cooperation must have been particularly valuable. This sends a powerful message to other people that resistance is futile.

Lots of CONs too addle-brained to remember how these investigations go. Trying googling "flipping witnesses," CONs. See what comes up.

Yes, they colluded, but it's not a crime. Amirite?


Many legal experts agree that collusion is not a crime. Google Alan Dershowitz to find out. But Mueller can't even find evidence of collusion. A low level guy trying to set up a meeting is not collusion. The meeting never happened because the campaign shot it down.


I think you're saying that Trump Jr and Kushner met with a Russian impersonator and not with Veselnitskaya. Got it.


Veselnitskaya worked for Fusion GPS. Maybe Mueller needs to conduct another pre-dawn raid to Fusion GPS, or the Podesta group?

No she didn't. She was Prevezon's lawyer. That doesn't count as working for Fusion GPS or for being an upstanding citizen.

You have a chilling sense of irony, Boris. De-bot and you could go into the bidness.

It should be Flynn, but I'm guessing he's rolled and he's going to get indicted on lesser charges, like George P did.

My money is on Donny Jr.

I thought Mueller was trying to look tough? Going after Donny Jr is like teasing the village idiot: something you do if you're weak.

I predict we hear something about him soon.


I tried to google this. Any chance you have a link?

How so, given the summer "adoption" meeting and his emails regarding it, not to mention the lies in his statement(s) about it (statements which the president directly helped to craft)?

I think Kushner is the one to fall next, though.

I think Kushner is next. Every week another lie pops up. Don’t know why he would go for such a visible public office if his dealings are so shady. Funny, but I don’t thinnTrump himself has done anything intentionally illegal because he’s just so dumb. However, because his administration is SUCH A MESS and he’s such a poor judge of talent and character, I think he will have no choice but to step down.

Maybe not wrt Russia, but I certainly think he's broken the law regarding money laundering. So even if he steps down, he'll get nabbed with that.

No, not quite. He very thoroughly broke the law, so stupid or not he has to take his turn.

Or, to say it as he may, "I'm not to stupid to be also criminal."
