Imtweetment: New York Times Reports Mueller Investigating Trump Tweets for Obstruction of Justice
Newsbusters ^ | July 27, 2018 | P.J. Gladnick

Posted on 07/27/2018 4:04:40 PM PDT by PJ-Comix

When the emails of Hillary Clinton are under subpoena yet they end up deleted along with the computers destroyed that is somehow not obstruction of justice. In stark contrast when President Donald Trump tweets that does constitute obstruction of justice for a crime that has not even been charged. 

Such is the absurd extent Special Counsel Robert Mueller and his team of intrepid investigators, who have been unable to find any actual crime to charge the President with, have descended. The result is the high comedy of trying to mind massage Trump's very public tweets into somehow representing obstruction of justice leading to the liberal dream of impeachment, or, more accurately in this case, imtweetment. 

Perhaps the funniest aspect of this latter day Keystone Kops episode of using tweets to prove obstruction of justice for a non-crime, is the utter seriousness with which the New York Times tries to rationalize it. The attempt was made on July 26 by Times reporters Michael S. Schmidt and Maggie Haberman in "Mueller Examining Trump’s Tweets in Wide-Ranging Obstruction Inquiry."

What the hell is there to “investigate”? All his tweets are out there for all to see. Nothing hidden, nothing nefarious.

Mueller’s just pissing up a rope as usual and just to drag it out longer. I’m so damn sick of these rotten partisans and I’ll never forget what they’re doing to our nation.

He should only delete the personal tweets. You know, about yoga and grand kids and a wedding, etc.

Mueller considers Donald Trump’s tweets obstruction of justice, but Strzok and Page’s texts are no big deal. Still think this isn’t a witch hunt?

Well the Sessions tweets prove he has an independent DoJ. Does Trump get credit for that?

Well, really it is a nation of the Constitution.

This still has the Achilles heel of the general direction of the legal system being politically dependent upon the Supreme Court.

They’re probing Trump and Russia for some kind of conspiracy when the real conspiracy IS the Mueller probe and the rotten to the core FBI and DOJ. All of them doing the democrats bidding.

Any charges against anyone in Trump world should be dismissed out of hand. It’s been a partisan witch hunt from the get go and I believe it was planned and ran by Obama and his team of monkeys.

Robert Mueller investigates Trumps underwear for possible collusion with well gifted jewel producer.

The Mueller jealousy rages onward.

Understood completely. My concern in this instance, is in having laws that clearly, “are for thee, but not for me”. And it is not just Hilary, and those at her level - heck - even Joe Biden’s niece walked off, Again... shakes head... But yes, FRiend, honoring the Constitution, would be quite the icing on the cake 😇 May God bless! Tatt

amazed to see the following at Fair - A MUST-READ - but perhaps it’s because the writer is from Scotland!

New McCarthyism allows corporate media to tighten grip, Democrats to ignore their own failings

Indeed, Hillary Clinton and her team actively attempted to secure a Trump primary victory, assured that he would be the easiest candidate to beat. The Podesta emails show (LINK TO PODESTA EMAIL THREAD BELOW) that her team considered even before the primaries that associating Trump with Vladimir Putin and Russia would be a winning strategy and employed the tactic throughout 2016 and beyond.

Wikileaks Podesta emails: Re: HRC, Obama and ISIS
From: (Brent Budowsky) brentbbi@webtv.net To: john.podesta@gmail.com Date: 2015-12-21 12:09
p.s. On the UN last week, support it yes, but be careful. I love Kerry like a bro’ and support him always as HRC should and does. But be careful about the U.N., support but don’t go too far. Putin did not agree to anything about removing Assad and continues to bomb the people we support. We pushed the same position in 2012 (Geneva 1, which HRC knows all about) and Geneva 2 in 2014. Odds that Putin agrees to remove Assad are only slightly better than the odds the College of Cardinals chooses me to someday succeed Pope Francis.

Best approach is to slaughter Donald for his bromance with Putin, but not go too far betting on Putin re Syria. Brent

Mueller is an obstruction of justice, and I am very tired of his antics! Who has the power to send him home already?

That's OK.

If they think they can skin that smokewagon without any reaction at all from millions of fanatical Trump-supporting Deplorables with blood in their eyes over being denied their 2016 election victory, let 'em go for it.

Better practice holding their breath...

It makes a person wonder when Mueller is alone by himself and is contemplating what he has been doing, if he doesn’t feel a kind stupid for what he is doing.<<<

Mueller is the modern day “Sisyphus”.....He made his bed....Now he's lying in it!...

He has to investigate till the day he dies...I wish him Hell...

Obama had a Pen and a Phone.

He obstructed the Constitution with them.
