Mueller Report Imminent

Renato Mariotti on Why Mueller Didn’t Charge Trump With Obstruction of Justice

Hog is correct.

 

[LouderVol]

Wrong again, Crossfire Hurricane did not begin until the end of July. What was the Obama Admin supposed to do? The Russians already had the stolen DNC emails. Should we have attacked Russia? Shutdown Facebook and Twitter? Stormed the Ecuador Embassy? Sanctions?

what should Trump have done? You have clearly held it against him despite no involvement on his end.

 

[Grand Vol]

Hog is correct.

Words never heard from Mrs. Hog.

Renato Mariotti on Why Mueller Didn’t Charge Trump With Obstruction of Justice

That article is complete horse poo and you know it.

The Muell didn't have to charge Trump with obstruction, he couldn't but he absolutely should have made a conclusive decision on whether he obstructed justice or not. If he did then it would be up to congress to take action.

Words never heard from Mrs. Hog.

She said those exact words the other day. I said "I acted like an ass" and she said I was correct.

Did she say you were correct or "I told you so..."?

I would tend to think the full report maybe should be read by the House, the Judiciary Committee for certain. However, with the complete lack of ability to keep their mouths shut, I'd be hesitant for them not to blab about it the moment they saw it.

I'd sure as hell be real careful about showing the unredacted report to the House Intelligence since Schiff already has shown the propensity to run his mouth. But that checks and balances thingy gets in the way.

You are obviously thinking about Nunes and Burr.

 

[n_huffhines]

Well, did he obstruct "justice"??
Facts are, that if he really wanted to obstruct the Mueller Investigation, he could have. When decisions were ultimately made, they were made to cooperate fully.

You didn't answer the question, which answers my question (and your original question).

 

[Grand Vol]

You are obviously thinking about Nunes and Burr.

Sure...

 

[n_huffhines]

What was/is your point? There was no obstruction so why is it even a point of conversation?

I was simply presenting facts from the Mueller report for everybody to interpret however they want. Personally, I don't think it looks good that POTUS has tried to obstruct justice at least four times. That's why I find that fact interesting. I also find it interesting that his staffers refused, which is why I pointed that out, as well. This is literally the first time I've offered any judgment at all, but you got all butthurt and argued, excused, offered multiple strong, favorable-to-Trump opinions, then accused me of tripping over a fact that I had pointed out first.

They were not involved in the stealing of the emails and they were not involved in the social media campaign but I will certainly hold it against them for their complacency and encouragement.

Immigration , infrastructure both could be had if they would work together .

Immigration reform would not require deficit spending. Infrastructure will not get addressed until there's a recession.

Just like dims with this fabricated investigation?

"...the report outlines how Trump told then-White House Counsel Don McGahn to inform the acting attorney general that Mueller should be removed in June 2017 -- a demand McGahn ignored. Trump also allegedly questioned McGahn’s habit of taking notes and making memos for the record, a sign that his tweets were likely aimed in part at the former counsel.
"Why do you take notes? Lawyers don't take notes. I never had a lawyer who took notes," Trump said, according to Mueller's report. The special counsel said McGahn responded that he keeps notes "because he is a 'real lawyer' and explained that notes create a record and are not a bad thing."

I guess until you understand.

So even when no evidence was found Trump is still guilty? Hmmm, sounds awful lot like how you speak about those of us who want Hillary charged. Of course with her there is indisputable evidence of crimes committed.

LMAO! If there's no collusion, there's no justice to obstruct.
Furthermore, had there' been collusion, it's not a crime.
If it's not an indictable crime, there should never have been a special council.
Commies are doubling down on the stupid.

 

[IPleadInsanity]

The Dems get a subpoena for material related to an investigation, they destroy the evidence and slow roll the documents they can't burn but then want to impeach others on obstruction? They keep taking this approach and their privileges will be taken from them. 2nd amendment is there for a reason.

 

[1972 Grad]

Giving an order isn’t an action?

No. Words do not equal actions. Period. Wouldn't obstruction of justice be something like destroying 33,000 subpoenaed emails and the hard drive?

Depends on what is involved in immigration reform. I don't remember Congress doing much without costs involved.

 

[hog88]

Both I think.

Don’t forget about all those phones.

Doesn't count.

Trump has spent years in the private sector where you can actually fire people and get stuff done. Cooler heads obviously prevailed so no harm, no foul.

Let's use EL logic. Since Trump speaks in code words that his subordinates understand it's likely that his staffers knew he wasn't really telling them do something but rather just venting. I mean if Cohen can turn innocent words into "Trump directed me to lie"; why wouldn't other staffers have the ability to get what is really being said?
