Bannon is a distinct possibility. He strikes me as an "any means necessary" kind of guy.
But I don't think he told Mueller anything remotely incriminating. I recall reading an article recently where the Mueller team was pissed off at him and considering holding him in contempt for not answering certain questions by claiming "executive privilege." They said he only answered questions that had been provided before hand. In other words, he didn't fall for the ambushes.
Maybe I misinterpreted that, however.
Per Rosenstein, “There is no allegation in the indictment that the charged conduct altered the outcome of the 2016 election.”
Future proves past.
as ordered by the President of the United States... the DHS has concluded that while Russian entities (as outlined within SC Mueller’s investigation were complicit in attempting to undermine the presidential election of 2016) had no direct impact or bearing on the outcome of the presidential election, nor were any U.S. person(s) knowingly part of such an attempt to sabotage as it relates to the Russian investigation, U.S. and other foreign entities (as further described within DHS[XXXX]), acting outside of Russian agents, did attempt on numerous occasions, and were successful, in interfering w/ the presidential election of 2016, senate elections of [x, y, z], [x] elections, whereby several million of illegal, non-resident ballots (the “irregularities”) were counted, while legal ballots were improperly tabulated and/or intentionally mishandled.
In other words, Russian activity had no bearing on the election. But "U.S. and other foreign entities acting outside of Russian entities" were successful in altering the election results due to voter fraud.
I read it that DHS will submit a report in March outlining this fraud and successful attempt to alter our election.
The successful alterataion was "Hillary won the popular vote." It was, however, not enough.
That is my interpretation of the latest Q drop. I don't know that the bracketed stuff is all about. SteveW can decode that maybe. Or the 8chan nerdlings.
