Re: Flynn in major trouble for speaking to Russia about sanctions
"obvious point to stress is that he has not yet made a single indictment alleging a Trump-Russia conspiracy"
The more obvious point is that he is saving the Trash as traitorous colluder charge for the grande finale after rolling up, flipping so many of Trash's mafiya.
... then there is SDNY that Trash failed to corrupt. Why did he try to corrupt SDNY? what is he hiding?
Why have Trash and his mafiya been
"forgetting", lying, obstructing for 2+ years,
if they are all innocent?

Re: Flynn in major trouble for speaking to Russia about sanctions
FBI’s top lawyer believed Hillary Clinton should face charges, but was talked out of it
Quote:
“I have reason to believe that you originally believed it was appropriate to charge Hillary Clinton with regard to violations of law — various laws, with regard to mishandling of classified information. Is that accurate?” Ratcliffe, a former federal prosecutor, asked Baker.
Baker paused to gain his lawyer’s permission to respond, and then answered, “Yes.”
He later explained why he came to that conclusion, and how his mind was changed:
“So, I had that belief initially after reviewing, you know, a large binder of her emails that had classified information in them,” he said. “And I discussed it internally with a number of different folks, and eventually became persuaded that charging her was not appropriate because we could not establish beyond a reasonable doubt that — we, the government, could not establish beyond a reasonable doubt that — she had the intent necessary to violate (the law).”
Asked when he was persuaded to change his mind, Baker said: “Pretty late in the process, because we were arguing about it, I think, up until the end.”
Baker made clear that he did not like the activity Clinton had engaged in: “My original belief after — well, after having conducted the investigation and towards the end of it, then sitting down and reading a binder of her materials — I thought that it was alarming, appalling, whatever words I said, and argued with others about why they thought she shouldn’t be charged.”
His boss, Comey, announced on July 5, 2016, that he would not recommend criminal charges. He did so without consulting the Department of Justice (DOJ), a decision the department’s inspector general (IG) later concluded was misguided and likely usurped the power of the attorney general to make prosecutorial decisions. Comey has said, in retrospect, he accepts that finding but took the actions he did because he thought “they were in the country's best interest.”
Baker acknowledged that during the weeks leading up to the announcement, Comey “would throw things out like that to get people to start talking and thinking about it and test his conclusions.”
Baker said that if he had been more convinced there was evidence that Clinton intended to violate the law, “I would have argued that vociferously with him (Comey) and maybe changed his view.”
He portrayed his former boss as someone who was open to changing his mind once he heard from his senior staff, even after drafting his announcement statement. "I think he would have been receptive to changing his view even after he wrote that thing," Baker said.
Baker’s account also shed light on revelations I first reported more than a year ago that the original draft of Comey’s announcement concluded Clinton had been “grossly negligent” in handling her classified emails. That is the term in espionage statutes for criminality, but the language later was softened.

Guess he didn't have a firm feeling about that. He changed his mind.

Mueller’s DC Grand Jury was just extended 6 months. This report will focus on obstruction. As it would be smart to first report on obstruction and then you tell the conspiracy story through indictments, just as Mueller has been doing.

Because, if you are investigating a conspiracy amongst a group of people, you aren’t going to report that and tip them all off. Also, there is no mandate for Mueller to shut down after his report :)

Re: Flynn in major trouble for speaking to Russia about sanctions
‘There’s abundant evidence that Donald Trump has committed crimes in office’: Trump biographer
The Trump biographer took it a step further, saying: “I believe, wittingly or not, that he is a Kremlin agent….we actually have a Kremlin agent in White House.”
“When the day comes that he’s not president,” Johnston continued,
“he must be indicted and convicted by a jury and imprisoned,
otherwise he will do, on steroids, what he did during the 2016 campaign….
call [on] people to commit acts of violence…
argue that the US government is not legitimate,
that law enforcement/intelligence agencies are not legitimate
because they don’t see the world the way Donald Trump thinks it ought to be.”

djohn does have a reasonable point: grand jury stuff is (supposed to be) totally secret until there's a true bill or no bill.

Re: Flynn in major trouble for speaking to Russia about sanctions
Maddow walks through the shocking degree to which the Obama administration went to protect evidence against Russia
Maddow reminded how the Obama administration
ejected 35 suspected Russian intelligence operatives,
seized two Russian “big, luxury compounds” and
announced new sanctions.
Obama also ordered U.S. intelligence agencies to produce a report on what actions Russia took to interfere in the 2016 election.
Maddow noted how U.S. intelligence agencies sought to “preserve the intelligence” about Russian meddling — and contacts with Trump associates — by spreading the information widely through government.
She noted America’s allies also did the same.
there was this scramble to make sure
the intelligence collected on the Russian attack and
specifically on contacts between the Trump campaign and the Russians during the attack,
that intelligence, they scrambled to make sure it could not be disappeared,”
“They scrambled to make sure it was basically memorialized and cataloged and recorded in such a way that it would leave traces,
that people would see it and
those efforts to preserve that intelligence carried on up until the final hours of the Obama administration,”
“There is a rush to leave tracks of the intel itself and the deep and unprecedented concern caused by that intelligence within the very top levels of the administration.”
