    Most likely. I guess Trump could fire Rosenstein and the new DAG could just end the special council.

    Mueller is a German name. How do we know that the East Germans aren't trying to hack our investigations?

    I'm quite good with this. If there are leaks, he can go after them. And someone with integrity will either find nothing or find nothing.


    From the NYTimes:

    Mr. Rosenstein said in a statement. “My decision is not a finding that crimes have been committed or that any prosecution is warranted. I have made no such determination.”

    My sources tell me Flynn is guilty of only a simple paperwork error.

    Oh and Obama personally gave him security clearance.

    The investigation stems from the work Mr. Flynn did for Inovo BV, a Dutch company owned by Mr. Alptekin, the Turkish businessman. On Aug. 9, Mr. Flynn and the Flynn Intel Group signed a contract with Inovo for $600,000 over 90 days to run an influence campaign aimed at discrediting Fethullah Gulen, an reclusive cleric who lives in Pennsylvania and whom Mr. Erdogan has accused of orchestrating a failed coup in Turkey last summer.

    When he was hired by Mr. Alptekin, Mr. Flynn did not register as a foreign agent, as required by law when an American represents the interests of a foreign government. Only in March did he file a retroactive registration with the Justice Department because his lawyer, Robert K. Kelner, said that “the engagement could be construed to have principally benefited the Republic of Turkey.”

    Military plans are written on paper. Money is printed on paper. This is all just a silly paperwork error.

    First crack has happened. This is all Pence's fault, he was in charge of the transition team, Trump trusted him, Trump didn't know anything, Trump is completely innocent!

    Hahahahahaha! If this is really the direction Trump is going Paul Ryan is going to break ranks very soon.

    So far, these are the damning facts of evidence supporting Russian collusion and treason by American officials.

    I expect a hearty prosecution of the criminals, cancellation of the illegal contract, and forfeiture of the millions of dollars gleaned from the illegal operation.
