Flynn in major trouble for speaking to Russia about sanctions

[Pavlov]

Because she's accusing him of being a Russian agent?

Mensch was with Heat Street (Murdoch), Milo with Breitbart (Bannon). Dueling far right trolls.

If all of djohn2oo8 sources (20committee, Claude Taylor, Broadsword 6, counterchekist) turn out to be far right trolls it would be the greatest troll job I've ever witnessed.

Bank account is verifiable fact, yes?

Trump Screws Himself On Twitter Once More, Making Admissions; His Atty Must Be Fainting



“I am being investigated for firing the FBI Director by the man who told me to fire the FBI Director!”That was Trump’s Friday morning Tweet to the world and his attorneys must be reaching for smelling salts and wondering for the nth time how their client can be so stupid:

“It’s clear that this tweet has not been vetted by his [Trump’s] attorney,”

said former federal prosecutor Renato Mariotti.

“In addition to confirming that he is under investigation, the tweet makes a factual statement regarding the president’s decision to fire James Comey, which is a subject of the investigation. You can bet that when the president testifies regarding his role in Comey’s firing, he will be asked about this tweet.

”A frustrated senior Trump administration official quipped in response to the tweet,

“Has anyone read him his Miranda rights?”

The implication being that Trump would do well to remain silent on the issue of his own criminal investigation.

“He’s furious at Rosenstein, but the list of his people who enrage him is ever-growing,” a longtime Trump confidant, who recently spoke to the president, told The Daily Beast.

“He has no qualms about throwing [Rosenstein] under a bus.”

Trump is fumbling and flailing and not just with his thumbs on twitter, typing “covfefe.”

He's bouncing off the ropes. Fine, let him.

A heavyweight named Mueller is warming up

and when he and Trump are in the ring together it will be a match that will be described by historians as "epic."

Special counsel Robert Mueller has not yet decided whether to investigate President Donald Trump as part of a wide-ranging Russia probe, according to ABC News.

In a report on the outlet's Sunday show, "This Week," ABC News senior justice correspondent Pierre Thomas said his choice will be "momentous."

"Now my sources are telling me he's begun some preliminary planning," Thomas said. "Plans to talk to some people in the administration. But he's not yet made that momentous decision to go for a full-scale investigation."

How Michael Flynn’s Disdain for Limits Led to a Legal Quagmire

In the summer of 2014, after repeatedly clashing with other Obama administration officials over his management of the Defense Intelligence Agency — and what he saw as his unheeded warnings about the rising power of Islamic militants — Mr. Flynn was fired

his foray into consulting has become a legal and political quagmire, driven by the same disdain for boundaries that once propelled his rise in the military.

His business ties are now the subject of a broad inquiry by a special counsel investigating Russian interference in the 2016 election and possible collusion with Trump associates.

That investigation now includes work Mr. Flynn did for Russian clients and for a Turkish businessman with ties to that country’s president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

But Mr. Flynn also became entangled with controversial clients.

One company that paid him, OSY Technologies, is part of a cyberweapons company whose software has been used to hack Mexican activists and an opposition leader in the Middle East.

Another, a Boston company selling a technology to replace lie detectors, is accused by its former chief scientist of marketing a counterfeit version of his technology to foreign clients.

Dozens of interviews and a review of public do ents suggest that Mr. Flynn’s business was as scattershot as it was ambitious — and that there were few opportunities he would pass up.

Trump’s Lawyer Drops An Ominous Threat About Firing The Special Counsel Investigating Russia

Trump's lawyer, Jay Sekulow invoked

Trump's Article 1 powers under the Cons ution to justify the President's firing of James Comey, which suggests that

Trump believes that he could use the same path to fire special counsel Robert Mueller.

Adam Schiff Admits There’s No ‘Proof’ Of Trump-Russia Collusion [VIDEO]

The Trump team’s spin about the Russia probe sinks deeper into absurdity

two other important pieces of spin Sekulow offered:

Sekulow renewed the suggestion that Trump fired the FBI director at the recommendation of the deputy attorney general.

Trump reached his decision through a “collaborative process” in which Trump considered Rosenstein’s recommendation

This is absurd, because as we already know, Trump has confirmed on national televisionthat he was going to fire Comey regardless of Rosenstein’s recommendation and that his motive was rooted in unhappiness with Comey’s handling of the Russia probe. But, more to the point, the fact that Sekulow is going here — again — means scrutiny will intensify on the meeting that Trump held with Rosenstein and Attorney General Jeff Sessions just before firing Comey.

Sekulow deliberately narrowed the scope of the Trump conduct that’s at issue.

complaining that Trump is “being investigated for taking the action that the attorney general and deputy attorney general recommended him to take by the agency who recommended the termination.”

This notion, which reprises a complaint Trump himself voiced on Twitter, buffoonishly contradicts the suggestion that Trump isn’t under investigation, but put that aside for now. Sekulow is basically narrowing the question to one over whether Trump is being (or whether he should be) investigated for obstruction over the isolated act of firing Comey.

deliberately excludes all of the other Trump conduct that is at issue.
