‘Sickened’ Romney Attacks President Trump Over Mueller Report

/0 Comments/in , /by

Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) on Friday declared he is “sickened” by the conduct of President Donald Trump and his aides as described in special counsel Robert Mueller’s report. . .

Romney’s blistering criticism following the Mueller report’s release Thursday morning by the Department of Justice. The special counsel specified his team did not find any evidence of a criminal conspiracy between the Trump campaign and the Russian government during the 2016 election. . .

The special counsel’s findings detailed how Trump campaign members heard in advance about a WikiLeaks release of emails that Russian intelligence obtained from the Democratic National Committee and Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman John Podesta. The report states that while investigators found communications between Trump campaign aides and Russians, “the investigation did not establish that the Trump campaign coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities.”

Further, Romney said he was “appalled” that Trump campaign members were open to receiving aid from the Russian government. “I am appalled that, among other things, fellow citizens working in a campaign for president welcomed help from Russia—including information that had been illegally obtained; that none of them acted to inform American law enforcement,” he said.

Liar Elizabeth Warren Pushes for Trump’s Impeachment Following Mueller Report

/0 Comments/in , /by

Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., on Friday urged Congress to begin impeachment proceedings against President Trump, suggesting that the newly released Mueller report had laid out the groundwork for Congress to act.

In a series of tweets, the presidential hopeful cited the report as evidence of obstruction of justice and collusion, adding that Special Counsel Robert Mueller had “put the next step in the hands of Congress.” . . .

Warren went on to cite the report, which was released in full, with redactions, on Thursday. In it, Mueller says that “Congress has the authority to prohibit a president’s corrupt use of his authority.” . . .

Mueller’s report was released into Washington’s partisan scrum Thursday morning. It showed investigators did not find evidence of collusion between the 2016 Trump presidential campaign and Russia – a conclusion reiterated by Attorney General Bill Barr last month and again in the run-up to the document release.

Warren went a step further on Friday with her insistence that congressmen “do their constitutional duty.” (Read more from “Liar Elizabeth Warren Pushes for Trump’s Impeachment Following Mueller Report” HERE)

Appearing Thursday on CNN’s Cuomo Prime Time, former Director of National Intelligence (DNI) James Clapper said special counsel Robert Mueller’s report is “devastating” and provides a “road map” for impeachment of President Donald Trump despite exonerating him of criminal conspiracy with Russia.

He does not hide that fact, but he’s also an original Trump-Russia collusion skeptic.

The Mueller Report Was Pretty Much Just a Taxpayer-Funded Opposition Research Project

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Robert Mueller investigation is over. The special counsel has submitted his report. Attorney General William Barr released the report. Yes, it’s been redacted because there’s grand jury testimony in there. It was not out of the ordinary. There was no cover-up. The Democrats just lost. The liberal media lost. You all suck. It’s a great day. No collusion. No obstruction. Eat it, Lefties. Eat it! In fact, the report was quite clear that there was zero evidence to suggest that the Kremlin and the Trump campaign colluded during the 2016 election. There was no conspiracy either. On the obstruction charges, they looked into ten incidents and couldn’t come to a conclusion. There’s insufficient evidence.

It may seem like ages ago, but Hillary Clinton’s funding of the Steele Dossier is what really fanned the flames of this whole mess. Yes, Democrats and the Clinton campaign funded ex-MI6 spook Christopher Steele’s opposition research project that was allegedly used to obtain a FISA spy warrant against Carter Page, who was Trump’s former foreign policy adviser. It most certainly was not vetted. Yet, that’s whole other scandal entirely.

This is all part of the same operation: get Trump. With the Mueller investigation, it was a $50 million opposition research project that the Left hoped would prove collusion. Hoped would provide Democrats with the ammunition they needed to provide the groundwork for impeachment. And hope that it would remove Trump from office for the mere sin of beating Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election. So, former FBI director, Mueller, takes over the bureau’s original counterintelligence probe once James Comey was fired and staffed it, partisan Democrats. After 2,800 subpoenas, 500 witness interviews, and 500 search warrants executed, nothing of that nature materialized.

Uh, Liberal Media, There’s Something About That ‘Trump Played a Nazi’ Song Story You’re Missing

/0 Comments/in , /by

The liberal media is not taking ‘no collusion’ day well. The report filed by Special Counsel Robert Mueller is finally out. Members of Congress have it. And guess what: no collusion. No obstruction. After two years of investigating, the report confirms what half the country already knew, which is that this whole collusion story was a hoax. It was pure nonsense. There’s no evidence of Trump-Russia collusion. None. Not on the Wikileaks dumps, the meetings with Russians—nothing. There was not enough to bring obstruction charges against Trump either. . .

President Trump held a presser earlier this morning where a particular song was played. Was it a Nazi song? The New York Times’ Maggie Haberman is wondering about it. Truth be told, I like Haberman. She has not gone totally insane on this whole story, though her unfortunate inquiry seemed to show that the liberal media, being incapable to torching the Trump White House over the report, were desperate enough to think a Nazi song would be played. . .Our friends at Twitchy captured the train wreck:

Trump’s Fiery Written Answers to Mueller’s Questions Revealed

/0 Comments/in , /by

Special Counsel Robert Mueller and President Trump communicated directly at one point during the long-running investigation into Russian election interference, when the president’s legal team submitted written testimony in response to Mueller’s questions on a variety of topics in November 2018 . . .

One of Mueller’s questions referred to a July 2016 campaign rally, when Trump said, “Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing.”

That was a reference to the slew of documents deleted from Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s private email server — one that prompted numerous accusations that Trump was improperly sending a signal to Russian hackers. Mueller’s report noted that hours after Trump’s remarks, a Russian-led attempt to access some Clinton-linked email accounts was launched, although there was no evidence Trump or his team directed or coordinated with that effort.

Mueller’s report noted that after Trump’s statement, future National Security Adviser Flynn contacted operatives in hopes of uncovering the documents, and another GOP consultant started a company to look for the emails.

“I made the statement quoted in Question II (d) in jest and sarcastically, as was apparent to any objective observer,” Trump, speaking through his attorneys, shot back. “The context of the statement is evident in the full reading or viewing of the July 27, 2016, press conference, and I refer you to the publicly available transcript and video of that press conference.” (Read more from “Trump’s Written Answers to Mueller’s Questions Revealed” HERE)

Washington Braces for Release of the Mueller Report

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Breitbart. Washington is bracing for the release of the Mueller Special Counsel report Thursday, with Republicans and Democrats posturing for what happens next.

The White House is planning to release a 35-page counter-report, according to Politico‘s Darren Samuelsohn. According to Samuelson, President Trump’s lawyer Rudy Giuliani texted him at 2:54 a.m. that the counter-report was “now at 34 or 35” pages. “The more concise the better. 400 pages is a novel.”

Some sources who did not want to speak on the record say they expect the president will not have much to fear, despite the report being nearly 400 pages long. Those who know Special Counsel Robert Mueller say that he is thorough and exhaustive and will likely detail all his investigative steps, and that some of it will be already public information, such as parts of previous sentencing memos stemming from earlier indictments.

Nor do they expect anything particularly explosive to come from Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s reasoning on why he did not make a decision on whether the president obstructed justice. There was allegedly disagreement by at least one member on whether to exonerate the president of obstruction, leading Mueller to not take a decision either way.

In addition, Attorney General William Barr has suggested it would be clear from the report why he decided to clear the president of obstruction, based on Mueller’s findings, and has already agreed to testify after the report comes out about his decision.

Report: Mueller Will Not Attend Barr Press Conference On Russia Probe Findings

By Townhall. Attorney General William Barr is scheduled to hold a joint press conference with Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein before the full Mueller report is released on Thursday. The conference will take place at 9:30 a.m. EST.

According to The Hill, Special Counsel Robert Mueller will not be attending the press conference. In fact, no one from Mueller’s office will be attending the joint press conference, although they have not said why.

A Democratic aide told The Hill Barr refuses to send the report to Congress until after the press conference takes place. (Read more from “Report: Mueller Will Not Attend Barr Press Conference on Russia Probe Findings” HERE)

Trump Approval Rating in the Wake of Mueller Report Revealed in Recent Poll

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Trump’s job approval stands at 45 percent, while 51 percent of voters disapprove, according to a new Fox News Poll. And that is almost exactly where it was last month, 46-51 percent, before Special Counsel Robert Mueller completed his Russia probe March 22.

That makes sense given two-thirds of voters (65 percent) say Mueller’s investigation has not changed how they feel about Trump. One in ten (10 percent) say they feel better about the president, while nearly two in ten (17 percent) feel worse.

The Justice Department will release a redacted version of Mueller’s report Thursday. Attorney General William Barr released his summary March 24. Congressional Democrats want the full report released, as do 80 percent of voters according to a Fox News Poll conducted March 17-20.

But don’t expect the release of Mueller’s report to put the issue to rest. The poll finds 35 percent of voters think the Russia investigation proves there was no collision, while 64 percent disagree or have no opinion.

In addition, 57 percent think it is at least somewhat likely U.S. intelligence agencies broke the law when they started investigating the Trump campaign in the first place: 22 percent think it is “extremely” likely, 12 percent “very” likely, 23 percent “somewhat” likely. A third, 35 percent, think it is “not at all” likely that there were illegalities in the investigation.

Trump Reveals ‘Dirty’ Details About FBI’s Relationship With Agent Behind Democrat-Funded Dossier

/0 Comments/in , /by

As Attorney General William Barr prepares to release the redacted final report by Special Counsel Robert Mueller, President Trump has continued to hammer the key takeaways from Barr’s summary: “No Collusion – No Obstruction!” On Wednesday morning, Trump tweeted out another “dirty” detail that has come to light about what led up to the “collusion” investigation: The former British agent who Democrats paid to compile the dossier that got the collusion narrative rolling reportedly received 11 payments from the FBI in 2016. . .

On Tuesday, Judicial Watch announced that it had filed a new Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the Department of Justice seeking the records of the communication and payments between the FBI and former British intelligence agent Christopher Steele and his private firm, Orbis Business Intelligence. . .

Trump has hit his “Dirty Cops, Dems and Crooked Hillary!” and “No Collusion – No Obstruction!” themes a few times this week. On Monday, the president issued a series of tweets on the topic: “Mueller, and the A.G. based on Mueller findings (and great intelligence), have already ruled No Collusion, No Obstruction. These were crimes committed by Crooked Hillary, the DNC, Dirty Cops and others! INVESTIGATE THE INVESTIGATORS! … THEY SPIED ON MY CAMPAIGN (We will never forget)! …Since there was no Collusion, why was there an Investigation in the first place! Answer – Dirty Cops, Dems and Crooked Hillary!”
