Yes indeed, getting closer to the end of this foolishness.

Two major questions were left unanswered by Flynn’s 2017 guilty plea: whether Trump instructed Flynn to call the ambassador and why Flynn lied about the contacts in the first place.

When Flynn pleaded guilty, then-White House lawyer Ty Cobb said the national security adviser’s lies had nothing to do with the president.

“Nothing about the guilty plea or the charge implicates anyone other than Mr. Flynn,” Cobb said.

Trump has repeatedly said he did not urge Flynn to call or discuss sanctions with the Russian ambassador.

foolishness...lol

Interesting that the memo details Flynn's assistance with two other cases (not involving Russia), details of which have been redacted.

Poll: Republicans Are Only Group That Mostly Sees Mueller Probe As A 'Witch Hunt'

https://www.npr.org/2018/12/07/67431584 ... witch-hunt

[Deleted User 75]

So the "only" group of the 2 possible groups?

[DCHawk1]

more Americans said they view Mueller more negatively than positively, 29 percent favorable, 33 percent unfavorable.

This is unfortunate, but not unexpected.

[jhawks99]

I think the jury is still out.

[DCHawk1]

I think Mueller has, over a career, more than demonstrated that he is a decent guy. He has made mistakes with this investigation (particularly with respect to staffing), but he doesn't deserve the treatment he's getting.

[ousdahl]

I wonder what kinda treatment Mueller would be getting if the subject being investigated wasn't trying to discredit him every step of the way

[DCHawk1]

Ken Starr asked me the same thing.

But no one else heard him, since Bill and Hillary were much better at it.

[ousdahl]

man, you conservatives play the CLiNtOnS! card even more than Trump plays the witch hunt card.

[ousdahl]

to be fair, I suppose Trump plays the Clintons card more than anyone - he mentioned them in 4 tweets so far today! though he's only mentioned "witch hunt" twice...

also, were the Clintons not only discrediting Starr, but also prepping their own counter report?

[ousdahl]

fuckin Clintons!

but I liked this part: But President Bill Clinton's supporters still plan to focus on whether the president obstructed justice.

are Trump's supporters committed to the same?

[Deleted User 75]

Some are. Some aren't.

Why do people pretend everyone in 1 political party (either side) thinks the exact same about every single issue? Sounds silly when you stereotype and generalize about large groups of people.

Haven't you heard the president do that about groups and make himself sound stupid AF?

[ousdahl]

Okay okay, not everyone.


Just 7 in 10 Republicans.

Better?

[Deleted User 75]

They have polled ALL of the republicans?
