Former acting Attorney General Sally Yates said on Tuesday during the 2017 Aspen Ideas Festival that the facts about possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia don’t rise to the level of impeachment or prosecution. A member of the audience asked Yates if there is a tipping point for House and Senate Republicans to join Democrats in their calls to impeach President Trump. “Well, as a country, yes, I would assume there is a tipping point. I wouldn’t presume to know what that might be,” Yates told the audience member. Yates then expressed her belief that there needs to be an investigation other than special counsel Robert Mueller investigation, citing that Mueller’s investigation will deal with whether crimes were committed by anyone connected to the Trump campaign. “Surely that’s not our bar, that’s not the standard of conduct we’re looking for from our President or our administration,” Yates told the crowd. “It shouldn’t just be whether you committed a felony or not. It should also be whether or not you’re observing the kind of norms that we’ve been talking about here today.” Yates expressed her belief that Mueller will do a thorough investigation, but that that is not enough. “There’s potential, and I don’t know what the facts are. I am not drawing conclusions about what he may ultimately determine,” Yates continued. “But, there are facts here that should be alarming to us as a country that fall short of facts that would establish a basis for impeachment or prosecution.”

You mean she’s smart? Covering their a$$es for when the story dies.
Saying Mueller is not good enough is a mistake dearie. In fact, it’s just a plain stupid comment.
Liberals, who can’t win an election, think THEY are going to decide what “ the standard of conduct we’re looking for from our President” is???
Please identify 1 single fact that ‘should be alarming’ to the country.
Not speculation.
Not conjecture.
Not innuendo.
Not fishing.
One fact.
Whatever “Whorathy”.
There are no facts and the only thing short is your husbands....
Sally, what part of Fake News about the Russia/Trump bs posing as news, don’t you understand?
Excellent!:

Nothing “there.”
it is not a case of not “rising.” It doesn’t exist.
Absolute truth.
The Dems are realizing they have to "change the channel"--now.
Pass the popcorn.
Which “facts” are those Sally?
A member of the audience asked Yates if there is a tipping point for House and Senate Republicans to join Democrats in their calls to impeach President Trump....
I don’t know. Is there a tipping point when one can’t take leftist a##holes anymore and goes around smashing their heads like grapefruits?
“... the facts about possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia don’t rise to the level of impeachment or prosecution.”
Right. They don’t even rise to the level of facts.
What fun it is to watch these idiot Democrats further destroy their so-called party with this unadulterated bullsh*t.
The only ones needing to go to jail are the people who came up with this conspiracy so they could spy on and entrap Trump and everyone who went along with it including those that promoted it daily in the news knowing it was bs.
Gen. Flynn (Ret.) is not impressed.
Methinks Mueller and all of his Hillary/0bama attorneys should recuse themselves.
What do you think, McCabe? If you’re not sure Andrew, ask your wife.

Great post!
Yates had her bikini on, right? (As she jumps this sinking ship.)
This ole girl hears the ship’s horn blowing, “abandon”.
The facts around Hillary, however, merit indictment, conviction and incarceration.
It was always a witch hunt... and Trump has a looooong memory.
