I’m pretty sure Congress could.
I’m pretty sure a Republican Congress wouldn’t.
I’m pretty sure it would be pointless.
These are mainly social meetings with issues discussed in broad generalities.
The hard work is done by low-level grunts.
This is insane. If it were allowed, no foreign leader would ever consent to a “private” consultation with a US president. That is disaster.
EXECUTIVE PRIVELEGE.................
Pretty much. There is zero chance it’s going to happen.
Ongoing negotiations. It’s like ongoing investigations.
So shove it, Schmuckey! :)
Fortunately, she’s a kook who will discredit herself. The Trump Curse!
Great post.
F the Freaks.
Behind closed doors 0bama enthusiastically showed Vlad how flexible he is.
Every day we see more and more desperation from the left, this one is just the flavor of this weeks irrational desperation.
What many dems don’t get is that this crap must makes them look dishonest, weak, desperate, and pathetic to the American voters.
Conservative Republics must abide by constitutional law... But, apparently leftist can do whatever the hell they want... Just ask Hillary..
That wouldn't be a problem for the dems. They would have a Russian interpreter present to translate the words into English for everyone to hear as well as interpreters for sign language and jive. The Dems are all in when it comes to that sort of thing.
The questioning should be done by those Congressmen who speak Russian fluently.
Which proves that this is all orchestrated NONSENSE..the left LOVED Russia 2 years ago, now they want Russia nuked
“There’s no formal finding that any law has been broken so the testimony isn’t going to be used for purposes of prosecution. “
That doesn’t mean something couldn’t be found in the testimony that might be used for prosecution. And theirs always the perjury trap these days.
I’ve heard for a long time now that anything you say can and will be used against you.
No. Executive Privilege and Separation of Powers. No way.
Peter Stvzok, Comey and others have shown us that testifying before Congress and actually answering questions are two different concepts.
Of course, the interpreters will never be allowed to answer questions before a Congressional committee. No way on earth.
Trump could then force employees of the Congressmen to come to the Oval office to answer questions under oath.
This is getting ridiculous.
It will all end when Trump declassifies some relevant documents.
The DemonRats are NERVOUS that Putin gave Trump information that INCRIMINATES TEAM OBAMA AND HILLARY such as her DELETED EMAILS and other info.
It’s quite obvious now that Putin has evidence on top Uniparty members of the US ruling class.
Putin knows of course that all information he conveys to President Trump will be validated by the President’s own resources. Putin’s evidence will not be accepted at face value, it must be verified, confirmed, validated, cross-checked before it can be admitted and survive in a US court of law.
The shrill desperation of Trump’s adversaries is a red flag. They are scared beyond all reason. They are trying to save their own hides.
The entire Russian Collusion was their only hope of creating a false narrative to make it seem Trump was somehow implicated in a crime against the US. But they have no evidence that Donald Trump was ever involved in anything they allege.
So now they are running scared because they don’t know what the President knows from Putin. They are in a panic because they must know what the President knows so that they can prepare a counterattack, a counter-narrative.
*********************************************
EVERYTHING BELOW IS SPECULATIVE BUT IS SUPPORTED BY BITS AND PIECES OF EVIDENCE THAT INDICATE WHAT HAPPENED.
My guess is the group of coup plotters has spent an enormous time examining and attempting to fabricate a false counter-narrative which they know will not hold water because there are other arguments and genuine evidence that will destroy any fabricated evidence. Should this be the case, the coup members need to be extremely careful because any successful challenge to their fabricated material can result in serious charges of treason, sedition, conspiracy or all of the above against the coup persons presenting such fabricated documents.
What kind of evidence can be fabricated?
A Manafort false confession?
A Michael Cohen false confession?
A false cable between SVR/GRU (former KGB) and people tied to Mr. Trump confirming that a system for altering votes is active and ready?
I will bet there is a war room run by deep state operatives who are trying their damnedest to get Mueller ‘evidence’ that President Trump is in collusion with Putin. Think of the yellow urine (”Pee-Pee”) dossier and how it was fabricated and debunked. One can imagine that deep state persons are working 24/7 to come up with an airtight but false fabricated narrative of how the President stole the election from Clinton. But they can’t do it. They want more time to invent something out of whole cloth that will be far better than the Pee-Pee Dossier. But they are out of time.
I will go a step further based on some knowledge I have. The Clinton camp thought they had the election rigged in her favor through the Soros controlled GEMS (Global Election Management System). But any illicit GEMS satellite transmissions may have been jammed on the night of November 8, 2016. So it was a case that Hillary’s people were unable to steal the election from Donald Trump by altering vote totals via satellite transmissions. Instead, they claim Donald Trump stole the election they were rigging by upsetting their attempt to cheat out a victory.
The election thieves were denied the prize, so what do they do? Why blame Donald Trump of course for stealing their opportunity to cheat. This is criminal logic. Criminals always think they can do what they want because if they don’t do it, the other side will. So if the other side catches them in the act of stealing and stops their attempt to steal, then that other side is ‘guilty’ of ‘robbing’ the opportunity to cheat. Ergo, Donald Stump stole the election. But the Russians had data that countered that narrative so the accusation had to take the form “Donald Trump and the Russians stole the election”. Such insanity is prevalent among criminals and with a media aiding and abetting this sort of criminal thinking, a grand LIE gets hatched that takes a life of its own. Of course, if the LIE succeeds, then the criminals write the history as they want to see it written and no one will ever know the truth.
There may have been other factors that helped counter Clinton cheating such as efforts in critical swing districts to bypass electronic vote scanners and touch screens by going to paper ballots. Normally paper ballots are easy for democrats to defeat but if they were relying on electronic vote machine rigging, they would have been caught flatfooted if some of the critical voting booths went instead to paper ballots at the last minute. They wouldn’t be able to pull bags of paper ballots out of the woodwork to put the vote totals into Hillary’s column. But they tried anyway with the challenges by Jill Stein to ‘count the ballots’ but that didn’t work either.
My bet is the main factor would be signal jamming by sophisticated military groups. We know NYPD was aware of the Weiner laptop. We have heard the NYPD Chiefs reacted in horror at what was found. We have heard that many influential military, Secret Service, NYPD, intel and law enforcement members vowed to do stop any cheating.
If the above scenario is fairly accurate, the defeat of the criminal deep state hinges on what is revealed from the Weiner laptop.
And IF the truth ever comes out enough to defeat this ‘deep state’ of persons that think themselves entitled to power, then Americans need to have a thorough top-to-bottom review and reform of election integrity and safeguards. At the state level, I personally have witnessed elections get stolen and I have followed how the methods of stealing get copied and spread throughout the nation. It needs to stop!
Apparently, all these members of Congress who went to law school haven’t learned the definition of “PRIVATE MEETING”.
They get face time with such ridiculous thoughts !!
WHY would ANY World Leader allow their Private Meetings to be the subject of ANY Congressional demand???
