Trump Likely Can't Avoid Talking to Mueller

The Friday-night news dump has been especially full:

1. Trump declines to release the response memo from the Democrats about the Nunes memo.
2. The associate AG, third in command at the Justice Department resigned.
3. An unnamed aid resigned today, following the resignation of Rob Porter yesterday, both related to spousal abuse.
4. John Kelly apparently offered to resign in the midst of the abuse allegations and his handling of them.

Busy Friday.
So much for the "The Donald's" claim that his Administration would attract "the smartest and the best people" - one of the reasons given for retaining Rob Porter as Staff Secretary for a year, without his security clearance, was that he was one of the few White House whom Kelly could rely on!

Given that this Trump Administration has proven itself totally incapable of "vetting" its own appointees, it has lost all credibility when it speaks of "extreme vetting" to keep Americans safe!

Perhaps it's the guy whose wife accused him of sexually assaulting her. :think:

The New York Times is trying to get out ahead of what's coming by releasing some truth diluted with a lot of fake news.

Despite all the Republican "hype," the Nunes Memo proved to be a colossal "NOTHINGBURGER" - once again Hannity and FOXNEWS have secured their role as the "laughing stock" of the media world!

Care to flesh out that conspiracy theory?

Not a conspiracy. The spin makes zero sense and is too implausibly desperate by a factor of 3 than the simple truth that Democrats in the government were willing to pay for dirt, and have now been caught.

Put better than I can,

Note this story is going to claim the CIA paid to get their own stolen cyberweapons/hacking tools back but this Russian just insisted on offering dirt on Trump they didn't want.

That's absurd. How do you buy back your own cybertools? You already have the tools; the problem is that other people have them, and paying someone to send you a copy does nothing at all to stop him from selling other copies forever, to whoever he wants.

No, this is about the Trump dirt, and the cyberweapon thing is the cover story . . .

This cover story [makes no more sense than] paying a blackmailer to "get back" a compromising photo, even though he still retains the negative and you have no idea how many copies he's already made, or how many people he's already sold them to, or how many additional prints he'll make off the negative.

No, they paid $100,000 (as a down payment for a $1 million payout) to get dirt on Trump before an election, and the "cybertools" claim is just a cover story, a legend.
Another lie.

It's time for jail cells.

He really is outsmarting your best and brightest. So some insisted on putting sensitive information in a document they knew would legally have to be redacted before release, just so they then could lie that Trump removed information that he didn't want released. That just blew up in their face too.

Sedition.

Prison.

Given that all 17 of America's intelligence agencies agree that it was the Russian who illegally hacked the DNC computers,

Not True;

Politifact said:
He justified his doubt by noting that the New York Times and the Associated Press recently corrected stories to clarify that four agencies, rather than 17, were directly involved in the January intelligence assessment about Russia’s interference in the election.

Not True;

Four out of the 17 were involved in the January assessment about Russia: CIA, FBI, NSA and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, which is an umbrella agency that oversees all 17 organizations.

This doesn’t mean the remaining 13 intelligence organizations disagree with the January assessment, nor does it mean the report was insufficient, according to multiple national security experts.

The 17 organizations differ on their missions and scope, so they wouldn’t all be expected to contribute to every intelligence assessment, including one of this import.

"What matters is the agencies that (were involved) and whether, based on their mandate and collection responsibilities, those are the agencies best positioned to make the assessment," said Carrie Cordero, counsel at law firm ZwillGen and former counsel for various federal agencies focusing on national security.

For example, the intelligence arms of the Drug Enforcement Agency or the Coast Guard would not be expected to collect intelligence related to Russian interference in an election, said Steven Aftergood, director of the Project on Government Secrecy at the Federation of American Scientists.

"So their endorsement or non-endorsement basically means nothing in this case," Aftergood said, adding, "In this context, the assessments that count the most are those of CIA, NSA, FBI and ODNI."

It's a fiendishly clever conspiracy. Clinton deliberately had the Russians rig the election against her so she would lose; she had to do that, so that she could achieve her real goal of putting Trump in jail.

Don't you see how obvious it is? WFTH-I..

Yes, obviously plain stupid. Not clever nor fiendish. Who is she supposed to be conspiring with? As for putting Trump in jail, a padded room would be better.

So Russia is funding wedding dresses. How terribly naughty of them. It this why the poor black kid dreams of coming to America ? Loads of Rusky cash.

Keep deliberately missing the point. We know you know that you're wrong.

Expect to read about an Arkancide or two in the very near future.

Yeah, right. I've been expecting some credible facts on supposed Uraniam-one. All one ever hears is a load of guff.

Reminds me of Bush's guff with Saddam's supposed WMD.
