The special counsel overseeing the investigation into Russia’s role in the 2016 election is interviewing senior intelligence officials as part of a widening probe that now includes an examination of whether President Trump attempted to obstruct justice, officials said.
The move by Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller III to investigate Trump’s own conduct marks a major turning point in the nearly year-old FBI investigation, which until recently focused on Russian meddling during the presidential campaign and on whether there was any coordination between the Trump campaign and the Kremlin. Investigators have also been looking for any evidence of possible financial crimes among Trump associates, officials said.
I have been posting that we need treason trials for a LONG time.
I don’t think so.
Yup. I said a year ago, if Trump miraculously won, that there could be no normal transition. Apparent to anyone watching the wholesale treason and lawlessness going on during the O’muslim regime.
The federal gubbermint is irreparably CORRUPT and has become an actual ENEMY to the people it’s supposed to represent.
We need a convention of the states to have Nuremberg-style treason trials and MASS HANGINGS on the national mall otherwise the people will be forced to rectify this obamanation
This is a coup attempt by Mueller, the deep state, the media and democrat party.
It is sedition and treason. We must all communicate all these points in my post to Trump, youtube, message boards, twitter, facebook, Rush, Hannity, Piro, etc.
It’s the only chance we have to stop this coup , if we all do this get it out there what this is not just a witch hunt but a coup and sedition.
<>So, Trump has his folks in the Oval Office, Mueller walks in, Sekulow reads the laws to Mueller and Mueller is given the chance to resign. If he doesn’t, Trump has no choice but to fire him. <>
One or the other, Mueller or the President will go. Let’s make it Mueller.
I said some time back that these thugs are not going to turn loose of Trump. This is going to go on all four years. They can then tell the country how worthless and crooked he was during his term and knowing this stupid country, they will vote totally for socialist agendas and turn this nation into Soviet Russia and Red China. That is their goal and Soros is giving them the money to do it. Obama, Hillary, Bill, Schumer and all the commies are behind this. They are not going to stop. Not for the whole four years or they can get their witch hunt congressional hearings to tie up Trump the rest of his term. It is coming. You can count on this crap.
That's assuming there's any truth to this. So far, all we have from the Washington post is another article based on quotes from more anonymous sources.
No, actually the President has the power to fire Mueller...but has decided not to do so, per article yesterday! I think he feels it would look suspicious for him.
Rosenstein is not as neutral as he pretends...my guess is his vote in 2016 was Democrat!
Imagine Mueller giving his buddy immunity when he’s already obviously compromised. How Clintonesque.
The special counsel is corrupt. What “crime” is he investigating. What innocent American lies in his path to be ruined for nothing. Remember when speech was free and some ass-H judge could not do anything against good people. Meuller should get off the public payroll and go watch a baseball game on his own dime.
Well, let’s hope you’re right and I’m wrong.
And, if probability exists...
As Trump leaves office [a highly unlikely event] he will direct Pence to name NEWT GINGRICH to the position of VP.
More exploding heads!

FWIW, "investigating" and "prosecuting" (or "indicting" - a fair synonym for the first step in a criminal prosecution) are two distinct steps in a process. It is quite common for an investigation to conclude, and that's the end of the process for that case.
What Mueller can't do -- at least it's generally agreed he can't even though pinhead academics will debate this -- is indict the president for a federal crime. The systematic pressure relief for what looks like total immunity for the president is that the results of the investigation can be provided to Congress, which has the power to impeach, and following impeachment and removal the president can be tried.
Just to follow up on that, imagine a hypothetical where the president is literally a crook. For example, violations of federal wiretapping or surveillance laws; or to pick a highly unlikely one, kidnapping for ransom. Total immunity for anybody is anathema to the "nation of laws" charade that our masters use to keep us in line.
But get away from the "clear crimes" realm, and the picture changes. Mueller is working under a DoJ regulation that allows him to investigate (must adhere to DoJ regulations, for example investigations are secret and confidential; the DoJ "investigation regulations" run thousands of pages); and also allow him the role of prosecutor. He can indict (accuse a person for a specified criminal act) and try the accused criminal in a court of law.
Here it gets interesting, but I think just on a technicality. I'll express what I see as the practical outcome later.
If Mueller does not indict, he reports the results of his investigation to Rosenstein, and that is the end of it. No public report on Mueller's say-so. See 28 CFR 600.8 - Notification and reports by the Special Counsel.
(c) Closing documentation. At the conclusion of the Special Counsel's work, he or she shall provide the Attorney General with a confidential report explaining the prosecution or declination decisions reached by the Special Counsel.
I assume the reader knows that AG Sessions has recused, so where "Attorney General" appears in 28 CFR 600, substitute "Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein," the person who appointed Mueller.
Rosenstein, in turn, will refer to 28 CFR 600.9 - Notification and reports by the Attorney General. Rosenstein is the person responsible for the judgment call on who, if anybody, sees the results of the investigation. Traditionally these reports are made public.
Brief aside, Limbaugh and most people assert that a SC has never given a clean bill of health, they always find a crime. That is not true, See Danforth's investigation of the FBI in the Waco incident.
Finally, the practical point. This entire Chinese Firedrill is a coup attempt started by Hillary, Comey and company, using wildly inflated accusation via innuendo. It has the support of all of the DEMs in Congress, just under half of the public, the entire MSM, and to the extent they influence the US, foreign powers who work to persuade and agitate the public and the Congress in an anti-Trump direction. Carlos Slim's NYT for example, includes foreign influence on the US political process, and George Soros funds street gangs like Antifa.
This coup attempt has to be wound down or dismantled carefully, and the public has to be kept in the loop or else things get dicey. Even though he lacked the legal predicate to appoint a SC, Rosenstein (and Trump) did so. I view this as a form of "expediting the conclusion" of the bogus investigations Comey started in the first place. Left to Comey, those investigations would be open for years - enabling the ginned-up reports in the press, and round and round it goes.
If the shooting starts, there going to get it first! THAT’S RIGHT I SAID IT!
reports that a conspiracy amongst these players has been intercepted, hence RICO statutes are invoked rendering any immunity agreements null and void.
at 2:30 min mark - 20 co-conspirators will get blanket immunity
starts about 5:22 min mark - rico mentioned at 6:30 min mark

Very interesting. Thanks for posting. Mueller needs to resign. Period. I hope our side can get a copy of the Comey/Mueller interactions communicating, “Hey, can I get immunity too?” Then it’s over. Assange at wikileaks.org?
