It’s been a busy week…..
Anyone who thinks that all the media noiuse Rudy Giuliani is creating is slowing down the Mueller needs to get their head examined….
Mueller, under his mandate, is searching far and wide into the 2016 Presidential election and its many pieces….
Giualani is trying work a deal with Mueller in public….
Rudy Giuliani told the Wall Street Journal that President Trump “shouldn’t agree to talk with special counsel Robert Mueller without knowing more about a man said to have approached Trump campaign aides in 2016 as part of the U.S. investigation into Russian election interference.”
Giuliani said Trump could be “walking into a trap” unless federal prosecutors make clear the role played by the suspected informant and whether the person compiled any “incriminating information” about the president’s associates….
Would an inocent man go all the girations Trump is NOT to speak to the cops?

Confirmation that Giuliani ‘made-up’ the Mueller Sept 1 ‘deal’ on Mueller wrapping up his investiagtion if Trump does a Q& A….
….
Giuliani was quoted by the New York Times later on Sunday as saying that Mueller had said the investigation would wrap up by Sept. 1.
A source familiar with the probe called the Sept. 1 deadline “entirely made-up” and “another apparent effort to pressure the special counsel to hasten the end of his work.”
“He’ll wrap it up when he thinks he’s turned over every rock, and when that is will depend on how cooperative witnesses, persons of interest and maybe even some targets are, if any of those emerge, and on what new evidence he finds, not on some arbitrary, first-of-the-month deadline one of the president’s attorneys cooks up,” said the source, a U.S. official who spoke on condition of anonymity…..

I think, given all the distraction and fatigue that it has caused, that it’s just about time for Donald Trump to Wind Up his hold on the Presidency, and I’m just as sure that it will be over by (say) September 1st [79th anniversary of the German invasion of Poland].
…[hint, hint….]…
jamesb says
I can embrace that action on that date….
Or Sooner?

Update…..
It appears that cooler heads have prevailed against Trump’s push to have his own admin Mueller FBI/DOJ people investigated …This whole thing has gone batshit crazy…Trump is straight up trying to intimidate the people working for the Special Prosecutor and on the early Trump campaign irregularities….
…
…President Trump and the Department of Justice (DOJ) on Monday reached an agreement to allow the inspector general to investigate conservative claims of FBI wrongdoing in the Russia probe, defusing at least for now a burgeoning crisis between the White House and senior law enforcement officials.
After summoning top DOJ, FBI and intelligence officials to the White House, Trump agreed the DOJ’s inspector general should “expand its current investigation to include any irregularities with the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s or the Department of Justice’s tactics concerning the Trump Campaign,” White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement….

My Name Is Jack says
That was not an “obstruction of justice.”
As I’ve tried to explain to you O of J is a very nebulous term,often difficult to prove because it involves “intent.”
Simply having conversations and discussions of various scenarios doesn’t rise to that level.
I see you have resorted ,as you often do ,to lying about my position.
Trump very well may have committed crimes.I don’t know and you certainly don’t either.The investigation continues.
What I have said is that interminable investigations carry political risks as voters generally tire of these after awhile.As I pointed out to you last weeks,polls show 55% of voters nw at least are entertaining the thought that Trump is being “framed.” The point being that ,if Mueller has anything on Trump himself,time grows near that he needs to show his cards.
So quit your pitiful lying(because as we all know you are incapable of engaging in rational discussion) .

‘INTENT’ JACK??????
Donald J. Trump has said in public NUMEROUS TIMES that his actions up to date is to STOP an ON GOING CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION by firing the prosecutors if need be?
Jack ?
Really?
Are you secretly working as a Trump defense lawyer?
Any Democratic political who had done 1/10th of what this rascal has done would have hung by his political balls….
I really think you are arguing here that Trump should be able to do what ever the fuck he wants?
That he’s the King for life?
UNTOUCHABLE?
Should we start bringing our money and children to the White House already for his blessings?
This guy is actively beating down the FBI, DOJ, and the whole Intel community and the media is giving the play by play…He’s got his people giving an assist to circumventing the American legal system and YOU’RE supporting this?
WOW!
You seem to have lost your fight already….
My Name Is Jack says
An ignorant goofball engaging in unintelligible babble.
CG says
Trump will probably have to fire or see quit about 7 more lawyers before he turns to jack.
jamesb says
He, he, he
I would hope he would get paid
Trump is famous for stifting people out of their money….
My Name Is Jack says
I probably couldn’t do much worse than Cohen (who seems to have functioned more as some kind of bag man than a lawyer) or Giuliani whose idea of representing his client is to appear on as many tv shows as he can while spouting off inane nonsense.
jamesb says
Just saw that Cohen has mounting trouble coming his way…..
A guy who worked with him has cut a deal with Mueller’s people to stay out of jail by singing about Cohen …..
