Mueller congressional meeting: a slow motion train wreck.

"What?"
"Could you repeat the question"?
"I don't have knowledge of that"!

... and on and on and on ...

Lack of focus, lack of concentration and inability to listen.

The republican representatives had him for lunch. He answered very few questions. Some even wonder if he actually authored this report but just signed his name to it.

Outside of using todays discussions as a way to continue the Russiagage fraud so democrat's can give the appearance of discovering unknown info this was a disaster for the deep state. The dems want to continue Russiagate until the 2020 election.

Rep. Debbie Lesko showed Mueller's report (part 2) was, for the most part, copy and pasted from the national news. In her words, "something anyone with a $50 cable connection would have heard. Mr. Mueller, you spent $25,000,000 producing this report".

On and on the damaging questions and facts came to the surface and Mueller had no answers.

Of course, the media and democrat's will try to give their spin on this.

Waiting patiently for the spygate and Epstein investigations.

Mueller's testimony on Trump and Russia: the biggest takeaways

"The former special counsel explained Trump was not exonerated and warned of continuing election interference by Russia".

"n highly anticipated testimony before the US Congress, the former special counsel Robert Mueller submitted to seven hours of questioning in back-to-back appearances before the House judiciary and intelligence committees.

His testimony comes four months after he concluded the two-year investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and the Trump campaign’s ties to Moscow, the findings of which were detailed in a 448-page report released in April. Here are the key takeaways".

Trump was not exonerated.

Donald Trump has repeatedly claimed “total exoneration” – despite Mueller’s report explicitly stating otherwise.

Mueller shot down the president’s assertion within minutes of the first hearing when he was asked by the House judiciary committee chairman, Jerry Nadler if the special counsel had cleared Trump of wrongdoing.

“The finding indicates that the president was not exculpated for the acts that he allegedly committed,” Mueller said. “It is not what the report said.”

Testifying under oath, Mueller also confirmed there had been several attempts by Trump to impede the special counsel investigation, adding: “Obstruction of justice strikes at the core of the government’s effort to find the truth and to hold wrongdoers accountable”.

Democrats ask Mueller if Trump could avoid criminal charges if he serves a 2nd term

"Former special counsel Robert Mueller was asked Wednesday whether President Trump might escape criminal prosecution on possible obstruction of justice charges if he were reelected in 2020.

“I’m not certain I can see the possibility you suggest,” Mueller told Rep. Mike Quigley, D-Ill., as his testimony before the House Intelligence Committee got underway".

Mueller: Trump's answers were 'generally' untruthful

"Former special counsel Robert Mueller told lawmakers on Capitol Hill on Wednesday that President Trump’s written answers to his questions were not only incomplete — they were, he suggested in his testimony, “generally” untruthful.

Appearing before the House Intelligence Committee, Mueller was questioned about the president’s written answers, which he described in his report about Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election as “inadequate".

Schiff: Mueller investigation showed Trump's 'disloyalty to country'

"House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., on Wednesday said it doesn’t matter whether the Trump campaign’s contacts with Russia or President Trump’s attempts to obstruct special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation amounted to crimes. To Schiff, they amounted to something worse: “Disloyalty to country".

Mueller testimony reminds us everyone except Trump knows Russians interfered in election

"Before she was ousted by President Donald Trump, former Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen said: "Two years ago, a foreign power launched a brazen, multi-faceted influence campaign ... to distort our presidential election. ...

Mueller defends special counsel team against charges of bias

"Former special counsel Robert Mueller defended his investigating team against claims of political bias against President Trump at a House Judiciary Committee hearing Wednesday.

“We strove to hire those individuals that could do the job,” Mueller said about the hiring process behind the two-year investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. “I have been in this business for almost 25 years, and in those 25 years, I have not had occasion once to ask somebody about their political affiliation. It is not done. What I care about is the capability of the individual to do the job and do the job quickly and seriously and with integrity".

Watching the democrat's and media go after President Trump is like watch the Coyote going after the Road Runner.

Running out of pop corn.

In typical Trump-like fashion, you didn't hear what the rest of the country heard.

Robert Mueller testimony on Trump and Russia: Devastating facts that point to impeachment

"Don’t let Robert Mueller’s understated performance fool you.

Some people expressed disappointment that the former special counsel did not deliver more impassioned testimony when he appeared before the House Judiciary and Intelligence committees on Wednesday. Perhaps we have all seen too many movies and television shows in which the star lawyer gives a riveting closing argument that spurs everyone to stand and cheer".

Mueller says he did not interview for FBI director position, contradicting Trump

"The day before he was appointed special counsel overseeing the Russia investigation, Robert Mueller met with President Trump.

Trump has repeatedly claimed that the meeting was effectively a job interview for FBI director, a position that became open when the president fired FBI Director James Comey. That firing triggered the Justice Department’s appointment of a special counsel to oversee the investigation into Russia's influence campaign in the 2016 election".

Mueller grilled on conclusions about 'exoneration'

"A Republican member of the House Judiciary Committee ripped into Robert Mueller at Wednesday’s hearing, claiming that the special counsel violated Justice Department principles when he failed to decide if President Trump committed a crime without exonerating him.

“Which DOJ policy or principle sets forth a legal standard that an investigated person is not exonerated if their innocence from criminal conduct is not conclusively determined?” asked Rep. John Ratcliffe, R-Texas, a former federal prosecutor. “Where does that language come from, director? Where is the DOJ policy that says that?"

Meghan McCain Confronts Adam Schiff: Show Me Your ‘Smoking Gun’ on Trump Collusion Now

"“What’s your evidence? You have been saying that on TV for years,” she exclaimed.

Schiff, who in March stood by his claims that there was “direct evidence” of Trump collusion by pointing to the infamous 2016 Trump Tower meeting, replied that he’s “been saying that the evidence is in plain sight” and “not hidden anywhere.”

“The Russians offered dirt on Hillary Clinton in writing and sent it to [Donald Trump Jr.],” Schiff stated. “And Don Jr.’s response was in writing and said, ‘As for your offer of foreign illegal help, I would love it.’ He accepted the offer".

http://www.thedailybeast.com/meghan-mccain-confronts-adam-schiff-show-me-your-smoking-gun-on-trump-collusion-now

Schiff saw this as collusion. For whatever reason, Mullier didn't. So, the way I see it, this is one of those things that will be left for the court of public opinion.

Russian Dirt on Clinton? ‘I Love It,’ Donald Trump Jr. Said

"The June 3, 2016, email sent to Donald Trump Jr. could hardly have been more explicit: One of his father’s former Russian business partners had been contacted by a senior Russian government official and was offering to provide the Trump campaign with dirt on Hillary Clinton".

http://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/11/us/politics/trump-russia-email-clinton.html

I think there also needs to be laws about the POTUS not employing family in positions of power. The nepotism of dozy donald is staggering. Such things would never be allowed here in the UK!

At one time it wasn't allowed here either. It just shows how far our government has slid away from the oath they all took before entering any office. It's no longer about what's best for the country. Now, it's about what's best for "party" The presidency at one time, to sum it into one word at a time, "integrity." Not to forget "duty" to uphold the Constitution of the USA.
"Transparency" "Honesty" and the TRUTH is no longer part of our government. "MONEY" and the pursuit of it has now taken the place of all of these. Out the window went PRIDE in our country and our president to lead it. You can read almost every day how well our president leads. What his example of leadership is. His example to the whole world, hate, lies, and deceit & dishonesty.

At one time our country would not have stood for all this. At one time people in the USA had enough pride in their country, themselves that they would never have stood behind such a man. But even now, with all that has already come out about Trump, I say a few still stand with Trump. Majority of the country sees Trump for the lying crook he is. It's pitiful though that such a man would even have one supporter. In my eyes and the eyes of many others, To support Trump is to abandon our constitution.

Trump celebrates Fox News poll on the economy but ignores less favorable parts of the survey

"WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump on Thursday celebrated a Fox News poll that showed voters are pleased with his handling of the economy – but the same poll also found those voters didn't think it would change much if a Democrat is elected in 2020.

"Fox Poll say best Economy in DECADES!" Trump tweeted Wednesday morning.

He also noted his approval rating on his handling of the economy had jumped four percentage points to 52% from a Fox News poll in May.

"Shouldn’t this be at 100%?" he wondered. "Best stock market, economy and unemployment numbers ever! Most people working within U.S. ever! Low interest rates, very low inflation! Country doing great!"

The poll was consistent with voters' attitude toward Trump's handling of the economy since he took office. His approval rating on that issue has remained in the high 40% range, with the exception of two outliers in 2017 that put him at 45% and 44%".


"It also found that a majority (51%) of Americans rated the economy either "good" or "excellent" for the first time since the Great Recession. According to Fox News, the result had not been that positive since January 2001 when the number was at 59%.

But the poll did not indicate that Americans necessarily think that keeping Trump in the office is tied to future economic success. When asked for their economic prediction if Trump is reelected, 33% said conditions would get better, 26% said it would stay the same and 39% said it would get worse. The numbers did not change much when people were asked what they thought would happen if a Democrat became president, with 33% saying it would get better, 24% saying it would stay the same and 36% saying it would get worse. "

Fox News's Own Poll Found That a Majority Think Trump's Racist Tweets Went "Too Far"

"Fox News has, on occasion, discovered some pretty interesting things about public opinion. In February of this year, the network's own polling found that 70 percent of respondents approved of raising taxes on people earning more than $10 million a year. And a quick show of hands during Vermont senator and Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders's town hall showed that an overwhelming majority of the audience supported Medicare for All".

The thing that some people seem to keep forgetting, Robert Mueller is a very careful man. He let it be known right from the start what he was going to do. He answered the things that mattered. He didn't let himself get drawn in by either party. He answered what needed answering.

Pelosi rebuffs Nadler on impeachment after Mueller flop

"House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler pushed to launch impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump during a closed-door meeting Wednesday, only to be rebuffed by Speaker Nancy Pelosi, according to four sources familiar with the discussions.

At a caucus meeting that came after the hotly anticipated testimony of former special counsel Robert Mueller, Nadler suggested that several House committee chiefs begin drafting articles of impeachment against Trump. Pelosi called the idea premature, the sources said.

Mueller's appearance was a disappointment to many Democrats, as the former FBI director stumbled at times, even seeming unsure of the contents of his 448-page report on Russian election interference and Trump's efforts to obstruct the investigation.

Pelosi convened the Democratic Caucus after Mueller's appearance before the Judiciary and Intelligence panels. A lengthy, animated discussion about the impeachment process followed.

Sources said rank-and-file lawmakers asked about the technical aspects of an impeachment inquiry, including whether it would require a full vote of the House or could be initiated by the Judiciary Committee".

Let's see if this judge will stand with Trump or the Constitution.

Trump's suit to block Democrats from getting his New York tax returns will be handed off to another judge

"A federal judge decided Thursday that a different judge should handle President Donald Trump's suit to prevent House Democrats from obtaining his New York state tax returns, delaying a decision on the president's request for a restraining order against the Democrats".

Next deep state game. Try to manipulate the economy so it has a painful drop. The media is backing up their program. They want the economy to fall just before the 2020 election and then blame President Trump. President Trump has the key in his pocket. He's pressuring the Federal Reserve to cut rates to keep the market moving. The deep state wants the Fed to raise rates to cause a recession just before 2020.

Trump is one step ahead of them.

In 2020 forget Russian interference. They know we're watching. the real threat will be China. China doesn't like Trump standing up to their allowed abuse of our economy.

Is it possible that they might try to help Trumps opposition?

Now that this uncalled for attack on our validly elected president is over what will the democrat's and the main street media do now? In Mueller's own words on tv: no Russian collusion, no interference? They're desperate.

New York modified their state law for no other reason than to have access to the Presidents tax information: no other reason! Will be interesting what will show up when state elected officials taxes are looked into: unless they erase the law once they find nothing in the Presidents taxes. State lawmakers could be held liable for harassing the President by using the legal system if they do this.

They're seriously desperate to find something, ANYTHING!!!!!

The brick wall has been hit but their ego's,lies and self-deception will not let them go. If nothing is found by November of 2020 all of these deep state socialists who manufactured this hoax will loose big time but they can't back down now. To many accusations and explosive emotions are involved.

In fact some elected and non-elected officials have broken laws in order to propagate Russiagate. Watch very closely as to what Spygate and Jeffrey Epstein cases will uncover by next summer. The news media said he was found on his cell floor yesterday. However, some New York news outlets said he was found the middle of last week . The same night of the New York black out.

What happens when a rich and powerful individual becomes a liability to his deep state and Hollywood associates?

By this time next year much of this will have surfaced. By then Russiagate will be a bad memory.

BTW, there is not and never has been a Moscow Trump Tower. A beautiful building that never existed. This was an accusation propagated by D Rep. Adam Shiff. Now that this whole fabrication has been shown he's got his back against the wall. Like Nacny Pelosi and all of the other dems:

"they can't back up.They have to continue this fabrication". They have to much momentum now.To admit they were wrong the American public and the world would laugh even harder.

Trump Might Launch an Amphibious Assault Against Iran If a War Starts

"Security, Middle East

A bad plan?

Trump Might Launch an Amphibious Assault Against Iran If a War Starts

If tensions with Iran continue to heat up, one option would be to stage an amphibious raid against a land or sea-based Iranian military facility.

One of the greatest truisms of life is that land wars in Asia are futile. The continent’s vastness allows defenders to trade space for time, extending the logistical lifelines of invaders to the breaking point. This argument holds for Iran, which at a population of one quarter that of the United States and the size of the West Coast is too large for even the largest of modern armies to occupy. But what about an amphibious raid against select targets on Iran’s coastline? Military action against the Islamic Republic is by no means imminent or even on the horizon, but it’s important for the public to understand the tools the Pentagon—and the White House—believe they have in their toolboxes".

Trump associate proved invaluable FBI source, records show

"NEW YORK (AP) — Newly unsealed court records confirm that Felix Sater, a former business associate of President Donald Trump, was an invaluable FBI source who used his ties to the criminal underworld to rat out New York's organized crime families and gather intelligence on Al Qaida and arms dealers in Afghanistan.

But the trove of documents, made public this week following a yearslong legal effort by media organizations, shed no new light on the part of the Russian-born businessman's past that is probably of the most interest to House Democrats investigating the president".

http://www.apnews.com/c2e4e0722e19457ab1d55ce3370fb45b


"When asked about whether he was concerned about being indicted after he leaves office which Mueller emphasized is a possibility — Trump falsely said that Mueller retracted that claim. In fact, Mueller corrected another claim, in which he had seemed to imply that the only reason he didn’t indict Trump was because of Justice Department policy against charging a sitting president. Mueller withdrew this mark and said that this policy prevented his team from even considering indicting Trump at all, though future prosecutors could bring charges once he’s out of office. But Trump falsely insisted that Mueller hadn’t said he could be charged when he’s no longer president."
