  • So he supported Gus Hall, I guess that means he colluded with the russians?

  • @oldbrownsfan said:

    Tex your bubble is going to burst. There was no collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russians. That is not to say Russia didn't interfere with our election because they did. The investigation of Russian involvement started in 2014 before there even was a Trump candidacy. The 13 Russians Mueller indicted are meaningless because they will never face prosecution in the United States and Russia will never hand them over. No collusion and no obstruction of justice over a phony collusion case. 

    @oldbrownsfan said:

    What I have said all along:

    No collusion with Russia but the investigation was never about that anyway. It was a fishing expedition to get dirt on Trump to impeach him. The hush money paid to Porny Daniels and Karen McDougal are the ones they will hang their hat on. I don't think they will be successful but we will see, time will tell..

    @calfoxwc said:

    that makes no sense. The russians supported both sides - they were trying to get hell raised in the election,

    and screw up our entire electoral process. There WAS ATTEMPTED INTERFERENCE, there was NO COLLUSION, except by your democrats. You want it to be collusion so badly, you don't seem to read any article at all - you just interpret it as you want it to be.

    It's nice that the search feature works so well on this forum. 

  • It would make sense to me. If my neighbor is running against me for City Council and a guy from the next town says he has pictures of him beating the shit out of his wife that's one thing. If I pay that guy to break into his house are plant evidence that's something else.

  • typical liberals - going by whiney emotions of choosing self-serving sides.

    So they side with dirty brennan.

    It isn't just that he voted for gus hall way back in the day.

  • Buzzfeed reports Cohen was directed by Trump to lie to Congress about Trump Tower Moscow. That is obstruction. Yep impeachment is indeed getting closer every day.  

    "The special counsel’s office learned about Trump’s directive for Cohen to lie to Congress through interviews with multiple witnesses from the Trump Organization and internal company emails, text messages, and a cache of other documents. Cohen then acknowledged those instructions during his interviews with that office."

    If other news sources across the full spectrum start to recognize this as accurate reporting, major problem not just for trump, but anyone who had knowledge of it and lied themselves. Then you have a conspiracy added to directing a felony.

    Herein lies my concern about this. BuzzFeed is notoriously unreliable when it comes to reporting things. I'm going to reserve judgement until the reporting becomes more concrete.

    Nevertheless. House Judiciary Committee is well within their purview to investigate the report as to voracity and if there is anything to it,  commence hearings on any Trump culpability.

    " Cohen was recently sentenced to three years in prison after pleading guilty to tax crimes, bank fraud and campaign violations that were not related to his dealings with Gauger and the technology company.

    He's scheduled to report to prison in March. "

  • From the article in my post above. That was a statement under oath that may prove of great importance at some point down the long snakey road.

    "William Barr, Trump’s nominee for attorney general, said at his Senate confirmation hearing Tuesday that a president or anyone else who directs a witness to lie is illegally obstructing an investigation. That statement attracted attention given Barr’s expansive views of presidential powers and his belief that presidents can’t be scrutinized by prosecutors for acts the Constitution allows them to take."

    I think even if this is able to be proven and right now that is a big IF with the witness being a convicted lying attorney. But if there is other evidence that proves Trump directed Cohen to lie to congress than I think how big of deal the lie actually was comes into play. We went through this with Clinton being impeached over lying to the grand jury and he was dead to rights guilty of a felony of lying to the grand jury. The lie however was about an extra marital affair and although the republicans were ready to impeach Clinton the dems and I would say even most of the country was not. If Trump was instructing Cohen to lie simply to keep something embarrassing from coming out than the dems may try to impeach him over it but it will fail like it did with Clinton.

    The lie was to keep secret the negotiations that were ongoing on the Trump Tower Moscow which they did not want America to know about with an election coming up shortly. And is it one thing for the president to be caught in a lie, but another to be actively instruct another to commit the felony of lying to congress under oath. That is not just lying, it's suborning a witness to commit a felony.
