Mueller has found nothing on Trump.

Now he is engaging in yet another phony fishing expedition.

Crimes with no underlying crimes.

Democrats and “progressives” approve ... just so long as those accused aren’t (D)ifferent.

HA, if this is to be a viable charge anywhere then there are vast numbers of Demoncraps and MSM types who openly toil at undermining any govt functions which do not serve Libtard interests.

The people in power need to realize we have too many laws.

No one is safe in such a legal environment, not even the powerful.

When you have absolutely nothing you reach for a Conspiracy charge. I was under the impression that they only really used this for narcotics cases. DEA goes up on a wire and they slam, conspiracy charges, on damn near anyone that called the target, just so they can get them to testify against the target. More of an intimidation than actual charge.

But, then again, the Left was able to change the definition of, IS. They were able to change the definition of, INTENT. And they’ll probably be able to mutate this law, to suit their needs.

A large majority of Moran's article consists, as most of his articles do, of an excerpt from another source. This time it's the Washington Times.

What happened to Russian Collusion? Heck, Sessions didn’t need to recuse himself if they were going to go fishing outside of Russia.

The American People will throw up on anything that Mueller finds that does not involve “Russian Collusion.” The dems and the MSM created their own mess by going so far and all in on collusion. In the minds of the public that is what Mueller is synonymous with, finding collusion. For him to craft something else not even remotely related will not get the democrats anywhere.

Let’s say that the democrats manage to win in November. They won’t win enough Senate seats to convict and no, I don’t buy that there will be enough GOPe turncoats that will vote to impeach on anything less than a charge involving collusion. Within weeks their internal poll numbers will tell them that they are doomed come 2020 if they waste time impeaching Trump on a charge that is not related to the supposed mission of the special counsel.

First and foremost, if they impeach Trump their base will accept nothing short of removal. Failing that, their base stays home in 2020. That will not happen and absent that, what is it all for? Secondly, the American People will see the consequences of an impeachment, and one not based on the collusion that they were sold so hard on. They will see a now booming economy tank, the markets tank, etc. and with this President fighting back, they will know who to blame.

How can this be turned on Mueller to put him at risk?

Right now, he probably thinks he is completely untouchable.

The problem is if he actually charges someone with a bogus crime some trumphater federal judge will probably buy it and if the Court of Appeals is one Obama packed the case has to go to the Supreme Court before the rule of law is restored. How many individuals can stand up to that?

“Conspiracy to defraud the government”

This describes the investigation to a tee.

My first thought was that this is an Onion story, but I guess not.

My next thought was that Horseface is becoming demented. This may be true.

The final possibility is that this means Horseface has nothing.

What is wrong with our processes that a kangaroo court like this can exist to drive a duly elected President from office? Thank God that the person is Donald J Trump because probably no other Republican in the land would be able to withstand this. The Donald is getting stronger and will beat back this onslaught and America will become Great again.

So why wouldn’t every single person ever brought before a future Special Counsel simply plead the Fifth and refuse to answer ANY questions?

It’s the Martha Stewart prosecution all over again. No underlying crime, but a conviction none the less.

Why doesn’t Trump just demand that he stick to the “russian collusion” bullsh*t or be removed?

He CAN remove this POS anytime he wants. This is just stupid to let it go on.

This statute as applied to this situation is blatantly unconstitutional.

If I was a target for this bogus allegation, I would not hire an attorney and tell Mueller to F@)K OFF.

Would not talk to him or provide any documents. I’d tell the Mueller, “good luck in getting an indictment, Asshole “

Big mistake for targets of a B.S. criminal allegation is to hire an attorney. Mueller would just try to bankrupt you into submission. Mueller would have to talk to me directly, and stretching out the criminal process for many years would not be that hard. If you don’t know how, take a couple of law school classes on criminal procedure and legal research, and research the case law for the statute you are alleged to have violated.

Record all phone calls. It is always legal record a public official when they are performing their public functions without their consent.

Even if it wasn’t, Washington DC is a one party consent jurisdiction.

IF YOU WANT TO FIND DEFRAUDING THE GOVERNMENT, LOOK AT THE ACTIVITIES OF HILARY AND THOSE IN HER ORBIT!!!!!

How can you ignore everyone’s crimes from one party when their offenses are 100x worse than the minor process crimes you’re trying to trap the OTHER party into????

There is only one answer. The special counsel is a partisan hack. This sort of double standard should be enough on it’s own to fire him. The irony of it all is that allowing Hillary to rig an election using foreign agents and spending infinity going after the other side combing for nothing IS FRAUD!!!!!!!!!!

Will someone please explain to me why Mueller’s entire charade is not SEDITION?

With no evidence,they have feverishly been working to overthrow a legally elected President/Administration.

Time for Sessions to go and REAL AG put in place to stop this madness...

Enough, is indeed, enough.
