Mueller requests emails from Trump campaign data firm: report
The Hill ^ | 12/14/2017 | John Bowdon

Posted on 12/15/2017 4:23:58 AM PST by EBH

Special counsel Robert Mueller's office has reportedly requested information from Cambridge Analytica, the data firm utilized by the Trump campaign during the 2016 presidential election.

The Wall Street Journal reports that Mueller's team has requested all emails from employees at the firm who worked with the campaign.

The request, which wasn't previously known, was voluntary, as was another request the firm complied with from the House Intelligence Committee, the newspaper reported.

Cambridge Analytica CEO Alexander Nix also interviewed with the House Intelligence Committee over video call this week, according to the report.

Nix was reported earlier this year to have been in contact with top Trump donor Rebekah Mercer about better organizing emails being released by WikiLeaks.

WikiLeaks chief Julian Assange tweeted that he could confirm that he was contacted by Nix prior to November 2016, and that Nix's request was declined.

Once again, as with Flynn’s plea, the “news” is released on a Friday morning.

now this rubbish will become the FakeNewsMSM narrative for 24 hours minimum, when instead Mueller & everyone in the DOJ/FBI connected to him should be resigning tonight.

yet if u want to find coverage of the following:

14 Dec: White House: Remarks by President Trump on Deregulation
Budget & Spending
PRESIDENT TRUMP: We’re here today for one single reason: to cut the red tape of regulation. For many decades, an ever-growing maze of regulations, rules, restrictions has cost our country trillions and trillions of dollars, millions of jobs, countless American factories, and devastated many industries. But all that has changed the day I took the oath of office, and it’s changed rapidly...ETC
https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-statements/remarks-president-trump-deregulation/

this is most prominent story, providing you can even find the right terms to search in google to get any results:

AP FACT CHECK: Trump’s iffy numbers on regulation
Washington Post· 4h ago

AP FACT CHECK: Trump’s iffy numbers on regulation
ABC News · 4 hours ago

AP FACT CHECK: Trump’s iffy numbers on regulation
CNBC · 5 hours ago

all was pretty much fine economically under Obama, didn’t you know? that’s the basic AP message attributed to “writers Cal Woodward and Jill Colvin” as having contributed to the report.

drain the stinking FakeNewsMSMS swamp.

I’m seeing a pattern here where when anything negative is revealed about the corrupt Mueller investigation, soon thereafter a convenient leak is provided to the MSM as a distraction. In some cases, the leak, such as the request for Trump’s bank records, turns out to be a flat out lie. The leaks, obviously, are coming from the Clinton operatives / coverup artists on the Mueller investigation; I mean those that haven’t yet managed to expose themselves so blatantly like the two FBI love birds.

I hear you.

Investigating Trump where there is nothing and ignoring the real obvious uncovered crimes by Trump haters is unbelievable to me that our country has become this with nothing to stop it.. all the safe guards have failed.

Why is Mueller not in jail for Uranium 1?

or for loading the deck against an elected President?

or for coverup treason every single day?

In Wisconsin, they had their own Muller investigation called John Doe.

An inspector general investigation showed the the “evidence” gathered by their Mueller type ended up in a hard drive partition called “Opposition Research” on Republicans

The hard drive and all opposition research they gathered vanished into thin air , presumably to haunt Wisconsin Republicans for a generation, and now the IG does not have the evidence to prosecute the Democrats who abused their system

Dear Mr. Mueller,
Since you and your cohorts are now under investigation yourself, it is not prudent to comply with your request.

Sincerely,
The lowest level Secretary in the Administation.


P.S. The president suggests you do something to yourself which is anatomically impossible.

Trump accused of “colluding with Russia” is desperate Hillary’s lifeline......in her fervid mind
the only way she can explain losing an election she bought and paid for.

As Steyn insightfully wrote:

The only people improperly colluding with foreigners are (A) Fusion GPS, (B) Hillary’s permanent campaign, (C) the FBI Hillary investigation, (D) the FBI Trump investigation, and, (E) the Associate Deputy Attorney-General, all of whom are colluding with Brit spook Christopher Steele to get the goods on Trump.

I would simply ignore this voluntary request. It is a witch hunt that would result in many lost hours and cost to the firm.

As an older American who saw America in better days, I am disgusted and fearful of an obviously politicized government and internal collusion against a rightfully elected President. It is my hope that reasonable limits will be imposed and enforced on the Mueller investigation and that it will end soon. I am also hopeful that the end will result will be the cleaning house of the CIA, State Department, Justice Department, FBI, and any other federal department found to be colluding in the nomination of Hillary Clinton and defamation of President Trump. This is what 8 years of an Obama Administration has brought us.......a more corrupt government than previously existed. The only difference is that corruption is now “in your face” and without penalty. Government employees, be they elected or hired, have morphed into a privileged class believing we serve them rather than they serve us. It is time to stop this charade and clean house.

Hillary clearly committed many crimes but we have no serious investigation. President Trump is being investigated over a fake dossier that criminal Hillary paid to have made up. Our government is a joke.

'about better organizing emails being released by WikiLeaks

So what? What is illegal about organizing leaked emails. I hope Nix and company told Mueller to go pound sand. At the least, told Mueller . . . see you in court schmuck.

Trump should refuse to release his campaign e-mails. Unless Mueller, the FBI and DOJ release any and ALL documents requested by Congress.
