    Can't put a number to it. "Confidence" is a loaded term anyway.

    What did blog tell you that made you go on this angle today?
    What word would you like to use instead of "confidence"?

    The ol' white flag.
    The memo describes the scope of the Muller investigation as far as can be revealed publicly.

    Do you need to have me find it for you?

    Yes or no.

    Called it.

    Easiest prediction I've ever made.

    Blog will demand it next, followed closely by TSA.
    wasn't really a prediction tbh ... TSA's politico article from 4 hours ago already stated that

    Ellis ordered that an unredacted version of that August memo be filed with him within two weeks, although he said it may be submitted under seal and without sharing it with Manafort's defense team.

    i like when chris has an opinion, he always refers to "common knowledge" or "general consensus" or somethin similar.

    its just like when trump says "many people are saying..." [insert something made up]

    or alternatively

    [insert something made up]... "and i know it, you know it, and everyone knows it"

    Didn't read that part. Was just logical.

    I am predicting more whining about the memo.

    Nothing.

    Why are you clamming up when asked to put a number 1-10 on how you feel about indictments?

    Oh, so nothing changed for you either.

    I don't think that way. That seems like more of a muh bet kind of mentality.

    I don't think Rudy is going to wrap up the Mueller investigation this week, if that helps you.

    Why do you clam up and avoid questions I ask you?

    Donald Trump’s Pursuit of an Oval Office Meeting with Vladimir Putin

    Inside the mystery behind the President’s surprise invitation to Russia’s leader, and his team’s struggle to figure out what to do about it.

    With almost every decision, Trump risks alienating close allies of the United States in Asia, North America, and Europe, who are already feeling beleaguered by a President

    There is one nation con uously missing from Trump’s long list of upcoming deadlines and deals, but it has proved to be the most divisive one of all:

    Russia.

    Amid the metastasizing investigations of his campaign and business ties to Russia,

    Trump talks and tweets about the country more than ever these days,

    denying any knowledge of
    Russia’s 2016 election meddling on his behalf while leaving his true intentions opaque.

    He brags of being tougher than any other President toward Vladimir Putin one minute,

    then laments the lack of good relations the next.

    In March, Trump defied his own advisers by congratulating Putin during a post-election phone call,

    then surprised them again by inviting Putin to Washington for a summit meeting.

    It seems implausible and politically insane to imagine that Trump would even consider a chummy one-on-one with Putin now,

    especially when the risks to Trump from the investigation by the special counsel, Robert Mueller, into Trump’s Russia ties appear so significant.

    And yet the invitation, I’m told, was real, and reflects the President’s strongly expressed personal preference.

    Will Trump follow through with it—and add yet another high-drama plotline to the already oversubscribed Trump show?

    Behind the scenes, there was much confusion among Trump’s aides regarding the Putin invitation, which once again called into question whether the President supported his own Administration’s increasingly hawkish policies on Russia.

    A senior Trump Administration official told me that National Security Council officials had been instructed by Trump to call the Russian Embassy in Washington and make clear that Trump personally wanted the Putin meeting to happen.

    Several former U.S. officials who follow Russia closely told me they believed that the President remained committed to the offer, despite little enthusiasm on his team.

    The Trump official told me that Pompeo, no Putin fan, is more or less resigned to the Presidential summit happening.

    a Republican adviser frequently consulted by the President said he thinks it’s all about Trump’s desire to upstage his Presidential predecessors in both parties.

    “Trump has a similar view that the last three Presidents had, which is

    ‘All the problems related to Russia are the fault of my stupid predecessor,’ ”

    the adviser told me,

    “ ‘and, through the power of my personal charm and charisma,

    I will be able to get him to fall in line with us.’ ”

    Mueller should serve Trash with a subpoena the week before Pootin arrives.

    You said you have the same amount of confidence today as when it started. When asked to quantify your confidence you then whine that confidence is a loaded term. Why is it so difficult for you to express your confidence level today?

    I don't believe I have ever put it in terms of 1-10, so your premise is false.

    Thanks for avoiding the question where I asked you why you avoid my questions. You have no confidence in answering.

    lol

    You ask thousands of questions a week I don't have the time nor care enough to answer every single one.

    I never said you put it in terms of 1-10. I am asking you to quantify your level of confidence after saying it is the same today as it was when this all started. Pretty simple request so I'm not sure why you are dragging your feet.

    Nor the confidence.

    Saying it's the same is quantification enough unless you have some special angle you lack the confidence to explain.

    Pretty simple request so I'm not sure why you are dragging your feet.
    Oh, so you want every single request fulfilled?

    One of my standing questions to you is this: What is the process for renewing a FISA warrant?

    I'm not the only one who asked it.

    I'm confident you won't answer it.

    10 on a scale of 1-10.

    I had already answered it in this very thread. I believe it was a justsecurity.org article by that red dot ex-fbi agent Asha. But this isn’t about FISA renewals as much as you’d like to change the subject.

    Back to your confidence level. Saying “it’s the same” isn’t quantifying anything since you are too chick to even state what your confidence level was to begin with. How confident are you today that Mueller will bring indictments against Trump campaign members for colluding with Russia to alter the election?
