    It soon may not matter... Mueller may have enough to present to congress without his testimony. Though trump may want to give a defense to recast Mueller's report...

    Shame twitter wasn't around back then, because you know there'd be a tweet for that.

    If we're going to be blackmailed by foreign countries, I'd at least like to keep it contained to the ones you can actually see from space.

    Meanwhile, the real investigation continues...

    George Papadapolous told Mueller that Trump personally encouraged him to arrange Putin meeting: report

    Via Isikoff and Corn we also found out more details about the Pee Tape lead in the Steele Dossier and some context around how that intelligence lead came about.

    Apparently Steele’s source might have been conflating two different stories in one.

    -there was a show Trump attended in Vegas that featured girls urinating with Russians
    -prostitures where offered to Trump when in Russia(Trumps bodyguard even admitted this was true)
    -He did stay in the same room as the Obamas stayed

    But Trump was only in his hotel room from 1:30AM to 7:45AM at the latest when he was needed for a photo shoot and that was the only night he was in Moscow. So it’s highly unlikely that the sex show happened in that room that night. It seems that Steele’s source was conflating two truths into one story.

    That being said that’s why Steele’s Dossier was just to be viewed as raw intelligence reports. Not fully investigated evidence used to indict a criminal. That’s what happens, intelligence collects intelligence and an investigation happens to find the truth.

    Meanwhile, a little extra pressure on Manafort to talk...

    Manafort could face ‘rest of life in prison,’ judge says

    What undoing? This is all totally normal. Presidents typically always have several people in their team indicted after entering the White House. It's the mainstream media focusing on it that is the real travesty.

    If they only paid attention to real news like ungrateful overpaid black people kneeling on indoor grass or the numbers to last night's pick three.

    Jesus saves and his name is Trump. For real.

    Actually this is not True, unless you are a republican president.

    Still nothing but showboating indictments for process crimes unrelated to the campaign and some Russian internet trolls.

    Again, RussiaGate is a dry hole. Keep embarrassing yourselves though.

    Well, the bragging, but also the shameless arrogance, corruption, incompetence and stupidity.

    I almost feel sorry for you.

    If you can't see Mueller methodically working his way up, flipping witnesses one a time, you are just blind.

    When it all comes crashing down, its going to hit you like a ton of bricks.
