Bannon Is Subpoenaed in Mueller’s Russia Investigation

That is the spin of the right wing. I don't buy that spin. It's not 'hysterics', it is looking at facts. You may go into the 'but Hillary' spasams all you want, but she's not relevant.


Of course you don't because you only buy what you want to believe and totally ignore the actions of the radical left who are indeed bullies as the article points out. We now have a President who isn't going to take that leftwing bull**** and you don't like it, TOUGH!
 
A one year investigation and we are just this far. If I was Muller, I'd be embarrassed. If I was Muller I would be ashamed.

If I was the White House ------ I'd be laughing at the time frame that Muller was in, and how little he has accomplished.

Think of all the people Muller has on his investigation ........ working hard ; and for him to be only as far as he has gotten.

Really- CI investigations can & do run years- add in money laundering thru various shell companies run into years. You are clearly lost & out of your depth as to what multiple investigations of multiple people involve.
Yes I know you stated you conducted investigations- but those involving who did not pay into the office coffee fund are not relevant or considered experience

And Bannon was really not significantly involved in the campaign, a minor position in the WH, and was little more that a coffee boy. Right?

It doesn't matter what i buy, It doesn't matter what you buy. It matters what Steve Bannon tells the Grand Jury. The fact the conservatives are reacting so emotionally and with such strong language and denial is quite amusing.

You do realize that the Whitewater investigation, which culminated in Bill Clinton’s impeachment, took four years, yes? And all they could nail him on was something completely unrelated to the initial investigation? Mueller has obtained far more in a year than Ken Starr ever did.

It’s almost as if you guys have assigned some arbitrary timeline to how fast things are supposed to move.
 
I don't think Mueller will wrap up the investigation until at least the end of the year. Many more will be charged first. It remains to be seen if Trump gets charged with anything. There is one big difference between today, and back in the early 70's. Back in the early 70's, the republican party actually cared about the rule of law.
I would be shocked if the investigation ends this year.

Special counsels take lengthy amounts of time typically, as they involve people that typically wish to hang on to sensitive personal documents, so as not to accidentally reveal something wrong that investigators weren't even looking for.

Whitewater took almost seven years, the Plame Affair took three years, Watergate almost three, and Iran-Contra was six years. If Mueller's investigation of Trump-Russia concludes in such a short time-frame, it will be clear that the investigation was rushed out of political pressure.

Mueller still needs the RNC/Trump micro-targeting of voters to be looked over, the attempts to get what were believed to be Clinton's emails from Russian hackers needs to be investigated, the Trump Tower meeting, Flynn, and Sessions and Kushner lying to the government. That is an enormous amount to cover for any special counsel, and that all assumes that Trump's international business of financial con-games never shows up on the radar.

The probe should go well into 2019, perhaps beyond that.

Indictments did come quickly.. due in part that at least one crime was near the statue of limitations. But, I expect more to happen this year.

Yeah, 4 1/2 yrs and ran the gamut of finances to a blowjob.
And Republicans are in an uproar and Mueller has only been on the job since mid May 2017- approx 8 months- 2 guilty pleas- 2 charged and they are in a rush to close.
I certainly hope those that are in such a rush to close this do not **** that way. If they do, they could have a lot of unhappy partners.

Well... it's different they do it.:roll:

BTW: Whitewater had three different people investigate it, and it was actually almost seven years.

The Chinese have a different calendar- 12 signs- not sure but this could be year of the Snake in politics?
Mind you could be year of the Sheep for those that are blind.
Year of the Rat for those spilling the beans.
Year of the Rooster for those that believe this is not a nothing burger
 
Legal question, will any of his testimony ever be a matter of public record? Or must we, like the dwellers of Plato's Cave, forever guess at the content of the testimony by whether or not there are indictments?



This. And lying under oath to Mueller is probably a somewhat different thing than lying under oath to a panel led by Republican Congressmen.

He'll be interviewed with FBI agents present, so if he lies, he'll be in the same boat as Flynn.
 
are you seriously whining about "attacks"? You should follow your own advice. you can't be snotty to people and expect them to be nice to you. That's not how life works. maybe you'll learn that one day, rob.



I'm a libertarian, fascism and authoritarianism is your domain. I'm for much more economic and social freedoms than you. And I was willing to sign on the line to protect those freedoms. Were you? ;)

And if you don't like being called a fascist, stop trolling others by calling them communist. :wink:

Anyone he doesn't like is automatically a socialist or communist.

With the amount of whining, I am shocked honestly.



right after they stop calling me "Conservative". deal?

Thats a lie.



I respond with "dependent class communist" when I am called something I am not. It's to show how rediculous thier charges are., if you don't like it. Don't start it. simple as that.
 
It doesn't matter what i buy, It doesn't matter what you buy. It matters what Steve Bannon tells the Grand Jury. The fact the conservatives are reacting so emotionally and with such strong language and denial is quite amusing.

Sorry but this is a non issue to most Americans who truly understand the issue, no votes were changed thus it is a non issue except as an embarrassment to the Democratic Party and the hacking of a private non govt. computer system
 
You couldn't carry Mueller's lunch bag. You can't even spell his name correctly.

Here, have a straw, you are clearly running low...

How about explaining why this is an issue for you? You are more concerned about propaganda than actual illegals, dead people, and double voting? How typical liberal of you

You have to make up what other people do and don't have a problem with in order to make their views appear as absurd as possible to justify dismissal? How typically conservative of you.
 
This is what happens when you assume. I've never liked breitbart or bannon. Though I did like Milo. The only way people could get rid of him was claim he was a pedophile via taking his words out of context.

Kal, forget the fact that you just don't get that democrats are not the equal but opposite of conservatives (and conservative like posters). You need to stop with the excuses for milo. that's just pathetic. If you think he got a "raw deal" talk to conservatives. I didn't fire him from Briebart or revoke his speaking engagement at CPAC.

Thank you very much for showing you don't have an answer to the question, how typical liberal of you

Why would I answer a question that I wasn't asked. All I did was comment on how your assumption of another persons beliefs was by-the-book conservative.
 
I was commenting on the irony that I mused there were a lot of witness deaths in Russian and you claimed the same thing for the US, but the only example 87 years ago.

I didn't notice the "a lot".
