    That's hilarious. If you don't see the dots, that's only because you aren't looking. The dots have been produced time and time again, red. If you refuse to open your eyes and see them, there's nothing anyone else can do for you.

    Just for kicks today I flipped on Patriot radio on Sirius XM and the host of hate speech radio Sunday was trying to make the case (while yelling at the top of his lungs of course) that the Democrats are making the Russia collusion case with Trump because they are secretly jealous of the full government control that Russia has over its people.


    The Right has completely lost their mind.

    If this story is true, this is indirect financing from Putin to Trump and the GOP, thanks to citizens united.

    This is insane, and anyone who isn’t viewing things through a partisan lense should want no part in foreign governments indirectly being able to buy off politicians.

    If you were pissed about the possibility of Clinton being bought off by the Saudis through the Clinton Foundation, which was a fake scandal because the funds never went up the Clintons, and the public has visibility of the Clinton foundations finances, you should be equally as outraged about this.... unless you are just a proven partisan hack.

    Pretty comprehensive timeline of dot connecting by Moyers & Company. It goes back to 1979...follow the money...like Mueller.

    Most likely too damning for any supporters of our Incompetent-in-Chief to peruse.

    "Connecting the dots" is simply another word for "you don't have enough evidence, therefore you're making logic leaps"

    I conclude that since Trump is not in jail, that this whole investigation has been a waste.

    As I said yesterday, Trump's next course of starting to try and gut the FBI, or at the very least discredit the institution will backfire tremendously when they then leak the most sensitive information they have on him. There are 30,000 people that work for the FBI, and the only person there will loyalty to Trump is Christopher Wray. If Trump is going to go down this road to aggressively stop the Mueller probe by eventually firing Rosenstein, defunding everything, and then gutting the FBI officials in charge of this investigation, things are going to get very very ugly for Trump.

    Doesn't mean he wont be able to eventually stop the investigation, and cover everything up enough for the GOP to justify keeping him in office, but this will damage him ALOT going down this road. Just another example that going to war with your own intelligence agencies and law enforcement isn't a good idea.

    As someone with a familiarity with the culture.... there is more truth to this than most realize. The FBI is the ultimate bureaucratic institution. It has taken powers/responsibilities from other entities, survived and thrived through different administrations and different foreign and domestic adversaries. It has tens of thousands of highly educated and plugged in employees that are aware of where all the bodies are buried. We are talking about career bureaucrats fighting for their jobs. No President is going to be able to go to war with them and win. Certainly not someone that has the level of fraudulent and incompetent dealings and connections Trump has. Going to war with the FBI is going to potentially leading him to a place where his own fellow Republicans have to turn on him.
