GOP Rep Gohmert: ‘No Collusion’ Between Trump Admin, Russia — ‘We Can Drop’ the Special Counsel
breitbart.com ^ | 13 Jun 2017

Posted on 06/13/2017 5:28:44 PM PDT by Helicondelta

Tuesday on Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends First,” Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) argued now that we know there is no collusion between the Trump administration and the Russian government, we can drop the special counsel probe headed up by former FBI Director Robert Mueller.

“[W]e now know there is no collusion between this administration and Russia – so we can drop the Independent Counsel, the Special Counsel – there is no further need,” he said.

Gohmert argued instead that a spotlight should be shined on the collusion within the Department of Justice.

“And now that we know the collusion between Comey and Mueller,” he continued. “He ran things by Mueller before he testified. He also ran things by other people in the Justice Department when he did the memo. There is so much collusion –- real collusion in the Justice Department.”

“[Mueller] needs to recuse himself from this matter,” Gohmert added. “We don’t need a special counsel. That was a ruse, once again, by the dishonest Comey.”

Wrong.

1. If you drop him, the Dems and the communist media will have a field day just like back in Watergate when Bush fired Cox.

2. Let the investigation play itself out. There was no collusion. There is no evidence. And having Mueller confirm it should shut the commie RATS and the commie media up...at least for a while.

Couldn’t agree more.......still won’t happen. The Dems have what they want. A fishing expedition to root out ANYTHING to tie around Trump’s neck. I can’t believe what has happened in this country.....I used to believe it was a truthful place, but lies and innuendo now rule the day.

Can’t be. Warner today said it will be going on for weeks and months /s

That ####.

I wish Sessions would have asked “Why? Why do you want to know if I’ll come back when you’ve found NOTHING?”

Sessions is a DOPE who made one of the BIGGEST BLUNDERS in American HISTORY when he recused himself.

I have no idea what Trump was smoking when he picked this fossil, HOLDER would NEVER have recused himself and NEVER allowed a Special Counsel to be appointed.

He told the GOP to piss off, they held him in contempt and he LAUGHED at them.

SESSIONS NEEDS TO GO.

Soon.

TRUMP NEEDS TO ADDRESS THE NATION FROM THE OVAL OFFICE AND GIVE THE DEMONRATS A DEADLINE OF 5 DAYS TO SUBMIT CREDIBLE EVIDENCE OF A CRIME OF COLLUSION TO HIS OFFICE.

He should then hold another address after that, sharing ZERO evidence of the crimes they allege and ANNOUNCE HE IS TERMINATING THE INVESTIGATION DUE TO LACK OF PROBABLE CAUSE FOR ANY INVESTIGATION.

This 'investigation' is CONSUMING DC and DISRUPTING Trump's presidency. WE ALL KNOW that is the REASON the DemonRats and NeverTrumper Republicans are doing this, right?

Trump should fire Mueller as soon as possible, before Mueller spends any more money on this witch hunt. Here’s the thing nobody wants to talk about: Even if Trump got help from the Russians, that would not have been illegal. More than likely, Hillary’s mad because Putin wouldn’t help her, instead. I, for one, am glad to see Trump moving closer to the last Christian nation in Europe.

They did, and there's nothing there. It's obvious the dems are using these endless investigations to smear the Trump administration. They'll keep going until they invent something that they can pass off as real.

It's time for the swampthings to do some governing. One reason the coup wants endless investigations is to thwart the Trump agenda. The timing is perfect NOW to end these fishing expeditions.

The “Sessions needs to go” rhetoric is ridiculous. Whose side are you on? AG Sessions was masterful today. Keep in mind Trump never would’ve been elected if Jeff Sessions hadn’t mentored him and been unwavering in his support.

“There is no evidence. And having Mueller confirm it...”

I predict the investigation will turn into:

“Can we get someone for lying to our investigators investigating something that never happened, based on either faulty memories or conflicting accounts? And can we then count on our allies in the press to spin it as a conviction for the non-existing crime? Can we do a Martha Stewart on Donald Trump’s friends?”

This is never going to happen. Mueller is just getting warmed up. His appointment was all part of the plan. He’s brought in Rat mercenaries to find something, anything. Failing that we are going to get supeanas and forced depositions all the way in to the midterms. Congress could stop it but it’s not going to happen.

Sessions was perfect. He ran circles around them. The Dems don't even know what questions to ask.

And that b**** Harris thinks she's some kind of prosecuting attorney...just yes or no.....

Now about....I don't recall. We have more meaningless conversations every day....and they blend into the woodwork. We don't recall because the "meeting" had nothing worth holding in memory.....and as time passes...we even recall less of the event.

Because Sessions was there today and over all he’s liked by his colleagues and is one of them in the sense he’s not an outsider. This is NOT a slam on Sessions. I’m just pointing out how most of the R’s were almost silent over this until today. They can’t stomach defending POTUS but it’s easier to defend one of their own.
