Mueller Seeks White House Documents Related to Trump’s Actions as President

Good and its about time.

Indeed it is. Its been about three years of surveiellance. One would think it would be fairly easy to find proof of his colloboration to throw the election.
 
"Mr. Mueller is also interested in an Oval Office meeting Mr. Trump had with Russian officials in which he said the dismissal of the F.B.I. director had relieved “great pressure” on him."


This was on the six o'clock news a few months ago.
The six o'clock news didn't provide a transcript of this meeting, where Trump admitted to obstruction of justice.
 
Executive privilege.

He seems to venturing very close to that edge and wonder if and when it might be asserted. Especially since we hhave yet to even see probable cause for this investigation.

Well maybe we have not but federal judges have and they are signing warrants and convening grand juries...

That doesn't mean those warrants are legal. Judges aren't above the law.

Neither are presidents. The difference is judges tend to be honest and honourable, our current president not so much...
 
Gee could that be the Fact that so many people connected with trump lied about their Russian connections? Had Hillary had this kind of contact with Russians you would demanding impeachment.

The left have been in resistance mode since Nov 9th. Nothing of what you said is relevant because of that.
 
By that logic the entire Benghazi investigation was also a waste of time.

I don't understand. We needed those investigations to find out what we found out. A lot of the Benghazi investigation was to find out what exactly happened and what we can do to stop it from happening again. Most of the Benghazi investigations weren't really about Clinton at all. In this case what Mueller wants to find out has already been broadcast on the six o'clock news months ago. It's like having an investigation to find out if Trump fired Comey. Duh. We already know that Trump fired Comey and we already know what Trump said about this because it was broadcast on the six o'clock news already.

This is what Mueller wants to investigate: "Mr. Mueller is also interested in an Oval Office meeting Mr. Trump had with Russian officials in which he said the dismissal of the F.B.I. director had relieved “great pressure” on him".

Duh, we already know this because it was on the six o'clock news!

And the right can’t hear or see anything because they have they’re heads up trumps ass licking what he had for dinner the previous night. Nothing of what you said is relevant because of that.

You just said that Trump admitted to obstruction of justice. If he admitted to it, then there is no need to investigate. You've already got the admission! Or, do you?

Judges are no more honest, nor honorable than anyone else.

I'll take that as an admission that the left has been in resistance mode since Nov 9th because you have your heads up anti-Trump's ass licking what he had for dinner the previous night.

That’s hilarious because you righties were in resistance mode before obama was even inaugurated and then spent 8 years fighting. So spare us your soapbox, what you say is irrelevant and shows your hypocrisy.
 
I think Congress did the right thing about the Russian sanctions and the POTUS. I think exec orders are being used to grab more control for the executive branch. Why should a president have the authority to lift sanctions voted on by Congress? My answer is that he shouldn't.

As to the gvmt's cybersecurity, I think it sucks. I'm betting the technology is many times so obsolete as to be ridiculous. I have a subjective example... the u..s gvmt savings bond website. When one wants to get their bond inventory into the system, a little bitty keyboard pops up on the screen. You cannot use your own keyboard to enter numbers that are 25-long, the amounts or anything else. I think that particular website so archaic it's probably collecting social security.

Definitely cyber attacks are the main weapon of today. Hacking into any public or private--personal computer in this country is a FELONY and there are lots of people in prison over it today. For for every Hack there is going to be a REWARD at the end of that hack for someone to take the risk. My brother in law works in a large power plant that feeds NORAD, Fort Carson, the Air Force Academy--and he states they are constantly fighting off Russian hackers--it's a daily battle. I don't know if anyone can come up with an unbreakable system? But here's a list of government agencies that have been hacked--including the state department.

Ok-- thus far you have said what Putin has NOT gotten from Trump--- sanction relief (which Trump never authored when he had the authority) and cyber security cooperation (which Trump never suggested until after he was president, and of course went nowhere).
So what has Putin received from Trump?

The continual defense of your mistake and responsibility is getting real old. You have ignored my posts that include FOX NEWS video's and trusted links in order to defend your ignorance. You're in complete denial of what is going on. And it's because you have insisted on living in a right wing media bubble for the last two decades. It's clear you have only listened to right wing talk show hosts & only read right wing sites, that regurgitate information, then spoon feed it back to you in 3 or more daily hours of right wing hyperbole, half truths, lies, and enough conspiracy theories to fill the capital building from floor to ceiling, aka the News YOU want to hear. You have been brainwashed to believe than any other news sites are FAKE..

Your right wing talk show hosts wanted a revolution against the "Establishment" and they sold you Trump. Now they're running like a bunch of rats leaving a sinking ship.

But in 2016, the criticism from Hannity and a vocal faction of the conservative news media reached a fever pitch. The occasional needling of Republicans morphed into full-blown, searing criticism. Even figures like Ryan and Cruz, considered by most to have iron-clad conservative credentials, were no longer safe. Republicans used their newfound apparatus as a vehicle to drive home their message to supporters. Simultaneously, the conservative news media sought to lock in its audience by characterizing the mainstream press as an industry comprising dishonest liberals — something with which the GOP was more than happy to go along.
Donald Trump breaks the conservative media - Business Insider

As Conor Friedersdorf wrote last year in the Atlantic: “the elements of the party that sent pro-Trump cues to primary voters—Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter, Bill O'reilly, Michael Savage, Jeff Sessions, Rudi Guiliani, Sarah Palin, Jan Brewer, Joe Arpaio, Ben Carson, Chris Christie, Breitbart.com, The Drudge Report, The New York Post—are simply more powerful, relative to National Review, Mitt Romney, John McCain, and other ‘Trump is unacceptable’ forces, than previously thought.”

You were warned a thousand time over about Donald Trump, you OWN it now. So when this comes crashing down on your head, and it's going to you remember where to point the finger.

Really is that why they are addressed as your honor and the leader of the free world is addressed as MR.?

I don't deny that, particularly since I am an independent. Thanks for finally admitting that the left has been in resistance mode since Nov 9th and that it doesn't have a damn thing to do with Trump. It is all payback for Obama's eight years. Was that really so hard to admit?

It has everything to do with trump but it’s good for you to admit you were in resistance mode with obama. Was that really hard for you to admit your back comment? Such hypocrites trump supporters are.

It doesn't have anything to do with Trump. If Trump had never run and Ted Cruz was president, are you saying that the left wouldn't be trying to payback the right for eight years of Obama? Sure they would because this has nothing to do with Trump. In fact, Trump is probably friendlier with Democrats than Cruz would have been. The resistance would have been in full force against Cruz.

Not to the extent it is now because at least with Cruz you wouldn’t have a man child throwing temper tantrums on twitter like your boy (emphasis on boy) trump is doing now. So sorry to burst your dishonest comments with actual facts.

Hah. You just admitted that you would be doing it to Cruz to! The only difference between the two is Trump is shoving it in your face where Cruz would have been more presidential. I actually love seeing Trump shove it in your face. I'm rather enjoying it and I'm rather enjoying you guys flail around like a child throwing temper tantrums like a little boy.

Of course I would to a point I don’t agree with much of the republican platform so why wouldn’t I be against some of the things Cruz would have wanted. Duh. I said to the extent of we wouldn’t be talking about Russian collusion or twitter tantrums if trump wasnt there. We also would t be taken his thanks to trumps unprofessionalism. Many Trump supporters are flat out idiots. The fact I would want Cruz or even pence as president before trump proves your comments are bull****.
