Trump And Russia, The State Of Play

Byron York lays it out. As far as I can tell, Obama was doing more to help Putin subvert the election than Trump was. And what are the Democrats who are blocking witness testimony trying to hide?

More thoughts from Don Surber. As Glenn asks, then why is Mueller hiring over a dozen more prosecutors? What’s the crime, and who is the target?

Chaffetz: Congress has to look over Mueller’s shoulder. They certainly need to bring him in to explain himself. And the Justice Department should assign someone else to the hopelessly compromised obstruction investigation.

  1. As is quite frequently the case…..

    If the Dems accuse you of something, it’s based on projection.

  2. I think it is right that Obama created the Russian scandal in order to justify spying on Trump and his campaign. Very early in the campaign, there was a concerted effort in the DNC media and from the Democrats to twist Trump’s statements as being a Russian ally. The spying on Trump and his staff also started very early in the campaign.

    Because it was all monitored in real time and nothing has come out, we know there is nothing there. It wouldn’t take a year of digging to find something they already knew and would have used as justification for further spying.

    It seems that much of the justification used by the FBI and intelligence community was the fake dossier that came from the DNC. Obama’s intelligence community also deemed Russia at fault for hacking the DNC when the DNC wouldn’t even let them inspect the servers and computers involved. Everything with the Russian conspiracy is either evidence free or concocted by the DNC.

    The only person associated with Trump that looks sketchy is Manafort but even his Russian association is a degree of Kevin Bacons.

  3. why is Mueller hiring over a dozen more prosecutors?

    Because he’s got a blank check for a witch hunt.

    Fire him now because the heat, much as it would be, would be less.

  4. Don’t let this ruin your trust in MSM in general and CNN in particular:

    (NEW YORK) — Project Veritas has released a video of CNN Producer John Bonifield who was caught on hidden-camera admitting that there is no proof to CNN’s Russia narrative.

    “I mean, it’s mostly bullshit right now,” Bonifield says. “Like, we don’t have any giant proof.”

    He confirms that the driving factor at CNN is ratings:

    “It’s a business, people are like the media has an ethical phssssss… All the nice cutesy little ethics that used to get talked about in journalism school you’re just like, that’s adorable. That’s adorable. This is a business.”

    According to the CNN Producer, business is booming. “Trump is good for business right now,” he concluded.

    Bonifield further goes on to explain that the instructions come straight from the top, citing the CEO, Jeff Zucker:

    “Just to give you some context, President Trump pulled out of the climate accords and for a day and a half we covered the climate accords. And the CEO of CNN (Jeff Zucker) said in our internal meeting, he said good job everybody covering the climate accords, but we’re done with that, let’s get back to Russia.”

    Bonifield also acknowledged: “I haven’t seen any good enough evidence to show that the President committed a crime.” He continues:

    “I just feel like they don’t really have it but they want to keep digging. And so I think the President is probably right to say, like, look you are witch hunting me. You have no smoking gun, you have no real proof.”

    “To report not on facts, but instead on narratives that yield high ratings, is exactly the definition of fake news,” said James O’Keefe. “We said we are going after the media, and there is a lot more to come.”
