Kaine on Trump Jr. Emails: This Is Now a 'Treason Investigation'
Fox News Insider ^ | July 11, 2017

Posted on 07/11/2017 11:54:14 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA) said this afternoon that he now sees Robert Mueller's Russia investigation as a probe into possible "treason."

Kaine and others on Capitol Hill reacted this afternoon to the latest revelations about a meeting last June between Donald Trump Jr. and a Russian lawyer.

Earlier today, Trump Jr. released what he said was the “entire email chain” of conversations setting up the meeting with attorney Natalia Veselnitskaya.

In the email chain, Trump Jr. expresses interest in obtaining damaging information on Hillary Clinton.

Kaine, who was Clinton's running mate last year, said the new reports take the probe to another level....

I guess it is also “treason” that the Clinton campaign was meeting with Ukrainian nationals to get dirt on the Trump campaign

Be very clear about the fact that the entire Democrat party is a treasonous enterprise. They are clearly aware of this basic truth and are doing everything possible to divert attention from their criminality.
They cannot allow their attacks to fail. In the immortal words of Hillary Clinton,”If Trump wins we will all go to prison.” The Democrat attack machine has reached an hysterical level.
We know with absolute certainty that every claim the Democrats make against Trump describes a crime for which the Democrat party is blatantly guilty.

Hey, go easy! I often drive a ‘short bus’ school bus. Calling Kaine ‘short bus’ is an insult to the kids I drive to school and all others who ride ‘short buses’. For Kaine, ‘tricycle with training wheels’ would be a more apt description.

Treason? How is having a conversation to get some dirt on an opponent ...treason?

And why haven’t we investigated all of those Hillary emails? That’s where the treason is...

This is getting crazier and nastier as the days pass. I am going to need a whole new book to understand this mess!

Bingo. But the MSM's power to selectively report stories is one of their most cherished weapons.

Interest in Clinton dirty dealing is Treason?

NOTHING came from these emails or meeting? The Russian lawyer says she is not connected with Kremlin and didn’t have a thing to offer up against Clinton.

The fat creepy British guy said he was passing along second hand information from a Russian Pop Star who sang at a Miss Universe event who said the female lawyer might have info. that could help Trump.

NO INFORMATION existed or was obtained. NOTHING really happened.

THAT IS IT.

Trump Junior should now say:

“This whole episode made no sense. I didn’t know what we might hear. That is why I asked Manaforte and Kushner to sit in. IF we heard anything that indicated a crime was committed by the Clinton campaign we would have reported it to the authorities.

When we met this lawyer it became clear that she had no information on Clinton and wanted to talk Russian adoption instead. I didn’t want to be rude so I talked to her. Paul and Jared bailed immediately.”

Did she really say that? If so, it’s just too, too, good.

Hillry picked this village idiot as her veep for two reasons. Virginia and those cafeteria liberal Catholics. This guy is a clown and a shame on God fearing Catholics..nothing new under the sun.. no need for rank and file Catholics to fund their church. Nancy the red catholic made sure we the people keep their treasury flush.

You can’t prove a crime based on wishes. The worrisome part of the email is reference by the go-between that (1) the lawyer he will meet is with the Russian government and (2) Russian gov’t is trying to help Trump.

You can't prove a completed crime with just wishes, but you can charge conspiracy or attempt to commit a crime.

Examples of Treason:

1) giving cold cash to your nation’s (arguably) worst enemy, Iran
(aid and comfort to the enemy)
2) ordering your military to “stand down” against an unprovoked attack on American citizens, including an ambassador (Benghazi)
3) removing an admiral from his post for obeying the legal requirement to save American lives under attack (Benghazi)
4) telling an enemy leader you’ll “have more flexibility after the election.”
Just for starters.

As if Donald Trump Jr. would have broadcast a copy of his e-mail chain all over the internet if there was even a chance in hell that there would be any legal repercussions over it. Who do they think he is, Evelyn Farkas?

The problem with too many of these Democrats is that they assume everyone else is as dumb and shallow as they are.

“The Dems had better think this through. If they succeed in taking down the Trump Administration, they had best not fantasize that they will emerge as the leaders of a new unicorns and rainbows government. The reality will be more like the breakup of Yugoslavia.”

The Democrats won’t have a place to hide.

You cant believe that lawyer. Her response is laughable given her history

I have no doubt she was being monitored..from our side..and their side...and other intel agencies. We may have more limits to surveillance because she is a lawyer meeting with clients but others dont have same limits. I saw where she is now claiming trump side asked her for clinton dirt

Its obvious cut outs were being used for both sides. The question now is a legal one..and it turns on many facts. I have no idea if it can be prosecuted..but they are gunning for Jr to flip him
