I hope when a Democrat is in office we do the same thing and investigate for fricks sake

You continually cite that Lester Holt interview out of context


Misinterpreting, huh?

Can't wait to hear "what he really meant"

House investigations are a worthless waste of taxpayer money, nonetheless

"It's very clear that the president obstructed justice," Nadler said. He said it was too soon to consider whether impeachment should be pursued, however. "Before you impeach somebody, you have to persuade the American public that it ought to happen," he said.

The mental logic of this is mind boggling.

Trump fired Comey, but he did not shut down the Russia investigation. The administration badly botched the explanation for Comey’s firing (and amateurishly failed to anticipate the fervid Democratic opposition to it). The president’s true rationale for the dismissal was the dichotomy between the director’s public and private posturing; the point was not to halt a counterintelligence probe of Russian election-meddling, which continued apace.

There is no obstruction of Justice by a President for exercising their constitutional power granted under article 2 of the constitution.

The President could fire the entire Justice Department and FBI if he so wished and it wouldn't be obstruction of Justice.

The whole Obstruction because he fires Comey assumes that Comey's replacement is either inept or in Trump's pocket. It's preposterous on it's face. The Congress approved his replacement. Were they complicit in the "obstruction"?

Can anyone explain this to me?

They can’t. There isn’t a serious person in this country who didn’t approve of Comey’s firing. He utterly botched everything he touched, lied to Congress, leaked to the press, and was overtly political in an apolitical role. Even RR, who desperately wanted Trump out, recommended the firing.

Wray was confirmed, and there hasn’t been a single charge of bias leveled in his direction. shite, most of the libs here think the FBI is their last hope since Mueller has nothing.

The Benghazi investigation dug up Hillary's toilet server and, ultimately, cost her the election. It would be naive to underestimate the power of scoring political points.

Problem with attacking Trump that way is that the media already gave the public outrage fatigue. I know this board always acts like the GOP wimps out of dogfights, but the truth is that GOP power players understand the importance of finding one specific thing then hammering the target with it like a cudgel over and over for a year or two or ten.

Why do all these corrupt bastards fail to state that it was the DOJ's recommendation that Comey be fired.
they also fail to state that the sitting president can't inherently obstruct justice. His constitutional prerogative to pursue whatever channels he wishes.

It’s amazing how “above it all you” act while simultaneously wholeheartedly believe in a massive conspiracy theory

Truly pathetic

LOL! The dems have got that right. He has obstructed the heck out of their slow move to socialism. He has obstructed their wet dream of 8 years of Hillary running amuck with the power of the pen in her hand. Oh has he ever obstructed them and oh has he taken up for himself and the people of this country. Blacks, whites, Hispanics, young, old, rich, poor, incarcerated and free. And our true friends overseas like Italy, Poland, Israel and more.

This is so comical because the idiot liberals want to act like something is obvious while ignoring that even Mueller is making no attempt at asserting this supposedly "obvious" thing.

Warner: 'Enormous evidence' of contacts between Trump campaign and Russia

The top Democrat on Senate Intelligence Committee says Trump campaign's contact with Russians during 2016 was historically unprecedented.



Today's news.

Just pay attention as if you need to know how WikiLeaks was coordinated by Russians with Trump staff.
