Instead Of Collusion, Mueller Finds Manafort Didn't Pay Taxes, Cohen Paid A Hooker....

On 'The Jimmy Dore Show' Ron Placone, Stef Zamorano, and Jimmy Dore discuss an NBC News article which gleefully reported that the conviction of Paul Manafort for tax fraud was the first successful "public test" of Robert Mueller's investigation.

"The problem with this is, you can't charge the sitting president with a crime, and Trump will never be impeached," Dore said. "Get that out of your head, that will never happen. Well, maybe if they found collusion, like if there was evidence of him being a Manchurian candidate to help Russia at the expense of the U.S., then maybe, maybe, maybe."

"Manafort convicted on 8 counts; mistrial declared on 10 other charges," NBC News reported this week. "The trial was the first public test of special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into possible Russian meddling and obstruction of justice by Trump."

"People see the headlines," Dore said. "If this was the 'first public test of Mueller's investigation into Russia meddling, wow it sounds pretty successful. Everyone is saying this really validates Mueller. But in the article, it says he was convicted on five counts of tax fraud, one count of failing to file a report...

Collusion isn’t a crime.

$17 million in taxpayer money to find out Trump got a BJ 12 years ago and someone cheated foreign breeding cows and their anchor babies out of hospital money.

We don’t even know that. Celebrities pay off people who file false accusations against them rather than drag it all over the media. $130,000 to Don Trump is like a twenty dollar bill is to you and me.

That is true. She still hasn’t presented a shred of evidence that one night stand ever took place

The media and Democrats never cared about Bill Clinton’s philandering, Barney Frank’s flaming homosexuality, Ted Kennedy’s (all all of the other Kennedys’) philandering and murder, Melenedez’s criminality, rapes by illegal aliens, the Killing Fields of Chicago and numerous other things that have come from their philosophy, but they care with whom Trump slept or paid off for same? Really?

Mueller uses the investigation to take attention off of Hillary’s dirty deeds.

How much money was spent from that secret slush fund in Congress to buy the silence of women and probably some men who were sexually harassed ? Taxpayers deserve to know.

Mueller has his own corruption that needs investigating, ya think?

https://www.breitbart.com/video/2018/08/24/compromised-author-details-comey-mueller-relationship-that-earned-comey-36-million-one-year/

24 Aug 2018

During Thursday’s “Hannity” on Fox News Channel the author of the Government Accountability Institute’s “Compromised: How Money and Politics Drive FBI Corruption” discussed his new book that details how former FBI Director James Comey and special counsel Robert Mueller both “made millions” by selling out insider expertise to the highest bidder.

In the Fox News appearance, Seamus Bruner describes how Comey worked at Lockheed Martin by 2009 was given “at least 160,000 stocks and stock options,” which he said was worth “upwards of $30 million” on top of making $6 million in one year.

Bruner added that due to his relationship with Mueller and the high amount of value for the government contracts with Lockheed Martin, it “strains credulity” to think Mueller did not sign off on the contracts.

The book also lays out how Mueller went on to cash in when Comey took over the FBI, and he opened a consulting firm, making $3.5 million a year giving speeches and representing clients he had previously enriched.
