And Sessions won’t even fire Rosenstein.

This is all so infuriating.

You shouldn’t make assumptions without researching facts. Back when Trump was elected I posted many comments to the effect of how difficult it was going to be to drain the vast and very deep Swamp. I went so far as to say it was an ocean, not a swamp.

What you also don’t know is that I have worked in DC and fully understand how deeply entrenched the establishment really is. Again, you’re making comments without trying to understand where someone’s views are coming from.

I do know, and you should too, that you simply cannot allow subordinates to undermine you. Successful managers identify, isolate and remove those cancers as quickly as they can. Its a matter of survival. Action speaks louder than words every time.

It was miraculous that Trump was elected. But I never expected it would be an easy task. To the contrary I discussed many times during exchanges with FReepers why it was going to difficult. Some disagreed with me and thought Trump was going to swing the axe. I respected their views and hopes, but that didn’t happen.

Worthless Republicans could end this tomorrow, just pull Mueller’s funding. He would not have a team for long if he couldn’t pay them.

No, they are too busy thwarting Trump’s agenda and protecting the Deep State.

He is accountable to no one. He has a lot to lose as well, being complicit in the DNC crimes. He either finds a way to take Trump down, or he will eventually be in prison. No one can stop him, except his partner in crime rosenstein.

I’m concerned about Trump’s grip on power if he doesn’t start facing up to the reality of having to remove the people involved in this subversive and lawless cabal.

The Bushes, Kasich and Canada born Teddy will never ever get over being defeated by a man who never ran for any office before. These are the same people who would gladly accept campaign contributions from DJT before he ran for president. Romney and McCain did not directly lose to Trump, but the fact that they lost to a community organizer from south side of Chicago, while Trump beat out the smartest woman in America (in minds of liberals) has to gall them intensely. Linda Graham and Little Marco seems to have gotten mostly over Trump insults during campaign.

I’m not a lawyer (or even close) but on first view this appears to be a violation of attorney/client privilege.

Except, what if they say they aren’t investigating Trump for wrong-doing but rather Cohen. They tell a judge that Trump has nothing to do with the need for a search warrant but rather they believe that Cohen broke a law of some sort.

They get the warrant and gather up all that they can-again nothing to do with Trump but rather Cohen.

Then because of the swine that they are they actually comb through everything just to find anything on Trump.

They then say, “well Trump was not a target, we believed that Cohen had broken X law and while we were looking we found this....”

That way they are able to subterfuge attorney/client privilege like the swamp that they are.

Could this be what they are attempting?

(Sorry if this theory has already been posted)

The Soviet American Deep State will have to reward Mueller. I expect him to run, and win, the Presidential election in 2020.

Bingo! You are right on!

The MSM says there is no attorney/client privilege if evidence of a crime exists. Apparently in Mueller’s investigation, a crime UNRELATED to Trump/Russia has come to light. Mueller handed it off to the feds at the southern district of New York. It required a federal judge to sign off on it.

How does this happen? Who is this judge?
