Harvard Law School professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz said...“I think it was a terrible mistake for the Department of Justice to issue that indictment on the eve of a foreign policy trip,” Dershowitz said in an interview with conservative commentator Hugh Hewitt on Thursday. “The Justice Department is not supposed to be intruding on the foreign policy of the United States. They should have, on their own, held off.”
...."The issue is timing. You know, the Justice Department policy say[s] you don’t issue indictments just before an election, because you’re not supposed to be influencing policy,” Dershowitz added. “And embarrassing the president by issuing these indictments before he meets Putin was a serious blunder.The Justice Department should not have done that.”

I agree with him, except for his suggestion that the timing was just an innocent mistake.
It's only a blunder if they didn't mean for that to happen. But they clearly did. So not a blunder, a coordinated plan between the Special Counsel and the Deputy AG to undermine the President. And that will continue.
The timing of those indictments is all we need to know about the enemy occupied DOJ. Patriots should surround the building and drag the coup plotters out. President Trump obviously feels that he cannot move against them.
Mueller’s witch hunt a growing disaster for national security
This was a planned attack, Mr. D.
Yes, it's basically evidence that could reasonably be brought up at their trials for treason.
Dersh is smart, he must know it was no mistake. Well he could be that naïve. He is a DC native. It was Rosenweasel’s move to hijack the summit and put the Meddling back on top as THE issue. Trump hit the trip wire so we had 3 days of MSM screaming treason. Even Rush seemed to not get it. He said yesterday that he thought Trump wanted RR to do this, what BS. Sheesh get a clue.
No mistake about it, it was a coordinated effort by the doj, fbi, msm, dnc and gopE to do damage to Trump and America. Although they actually believe by hurting Trump they are helping America. It’s still an ongoing effort, look at the turtle and others in congress directly still trying to undermine Trump on this.
Didn’t someone post something that Rosenstein asked Trump if he should wait or release it? Trump said to release it.
That’s an important article which deserves a thread of its own. I’m at work posting on my cell phone, or I would start the thread.
Everyone should read this post and the thread it’s in.

The Justice Department and the FBI know all the tricks to embarrass or trip-up the president who is after them. It has not even begun yet. Just watch it will not be a pretty picture. It will be one gaff after another.
It wasn’t a mistake ... it was deliberate ... and it was a setup ... the entire get-Trump apparatus was primed to use this as the springboard to go after Trump in full-howl mode after the summit ... unfortunately, Trump fell into their trap by making an issue of it during the meeting with Putin ... that was one time Trump should have kept his mouth shut ...
Mistakes aren’t intentional.
Dershowitz thinks Leftists have Honor. That’s a mistake.
No Mistake. The timing was planned by the Deep State to torpedo The President. If President Trump can find Jeffie Sessions, he should fire him immediately along with Rosenweasal.
Mueller thought he would be cute and conned Rosenstein to bring it to Trump in advance. Trump let it go forward because he knew that Putin would make Mueller and Rosenstein look like buffoons when confronted with indictments that never will go forward to trail
Putin struck it to Mueller, when he so kindly invited Mueller to send his Democrat goons to Russia to interview the accused, who are innocent until proven guilty. Mueller suck himself and Putin finished him off. Mueller is far from the sharpest knife in the drawer. Trumpie wins again.
Talk about collusion! I’m 1000% convinced that the timing og that indictment and everything that followed was totally premeditated to hurt Trump.
Mistake my @ss. Rosenstein intentionally timed this announcement to screw up Trump’s Russia summit.
