December 3, 20178 yr All this stress on him really does look to be accelerating the onset of his reported dementia. I should say the news reports that some close to him think it is early dementia.
December 3, 20178 yr This could get REALLY interesting. Was Michael Flynn asked to wear a wire in Mueller hunt for evidence on Russia? Plea agreement includes clause showing Flynn consented to participate in ‘covert law enforcement activities” if required The least-noticed sentence in Michael Flynn’s plea agreement with special counsel Robert Mueller may also be the most important one. Section eight of the deal reached by Donald Trump’s former national security adviser in the inquiry into Russian meddling in the US election is entitled “cooperation”. It specifies that as well as answering questions and submitting to government-administered polygraph tests, Flynn’s cooperation “may include … participating in covert law enforcement activities”. Long-time students of federal law enforcement practices agreed, speaking anonymously, that “covert law enforcement activities” likely refers to the possibility of wearing a concealed wire or recording telephone conversations with other potential suspects. It is not known whether Flynn has worn a wire at any time. “If the other subjects of investigation have had any conversations with Flynn during the last few months, that phrase must have all of them shaking in their boots,” said John Flannery, a former federal prosecutor in the southern district of New York. “The one who must be particularly terrified is [Trump son-in-law and adviser] Jared Kushner, if he spoke to the special counsel’s office without immunity about the very matter that is the subject of Flynn’s plea. I think he must be paralyzed if he talked to Flynn before or after the investigators debriefed him.” ... Since there was no legal requirement for Mueller to include this information about covert law enforcement activities in the plea agreement, Flannery believes it was put there “to put the fear of God” into anyone who may have given the special counsel answers that conflict with Flynn’s information.

STORY HIGHLIGHTS Trump tweeted that he fired Flynn for lying to Pence and the FBI Critics are questioning when Trump learned Flynn had lied to the FBI Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump's tweet on Saturday about firing Michael Flynn from his position as national security adviser is garnering a lot of attention from critics -- with some calling it a possible admission of obstruction of justice.

December 4, 20178 yr 1 hour ago, BiBottomBoy said: Thing is trump has weasled out of other shit before Petty civil-law cases over Trump U. etc are not even in the same universe as treasonous collusion to throw a presidential election. Come on. There is a Special Prosecutor up his ass. And one who already, shockingly soon into the business, has obtained multiple charges and even confessions from characters immediately adjacent to the Executive. One more time, with feeling...!
December 4, 20178 yr But what if he just says "fuck it. I'm president." you really think the house would stop him?
December 4, 20178 yr 10 minutes ago, BiBottomBoy said: But what if he just says "fuck it. I'm president." you really think the house would stop him? Yes. You don't read the papers? The RePiglicans were only keeping him on until they could get their grotesque tax bill through. The second after he signs that, impeachment proceedings will start like a diesel train. That is the universal consensus in the Congress. (Press reports affirm this, as do one's own personal contacts among the MA, NC, VA and a few other delegations.) Get out the popcorn.
December 4, 20178 yr We have only to wait and see. If that brilliant villainous mastermind Tricky Dick could be brought low, do you really think the Orange-outang and his idiot minions stand any chance?
December 4, 20178 yr Just now, BiBottomBoy said: he was brought down because he had the ability to feel guilty. Trump does not He was brought down because the genius of Madison, Adams, Jefferson, Washington et al. reached out from the grave through their great Document to say 'We foresaw your kind in the very King we overthrew, and we now do the same to You.' You don't have much faith in the U.S. Constitution. I do.
December 4, 20178 yr The consitution in the form of the electoral college was supposed to save us from trump
December 4, 20178 yr No, dear. The Electoral College was created as the essential instrument of the Great Compromise: to give effect to every slave's 'vote' being equivalent to 3/5 of his owner's vote. Thus today's still extant ways it distorts by over-representing small-state votes. Do you honestly not read anything at all about the shit you post about? God. I would be ashamed.
