    Yeah, and she didn't give a about information she had given out freely.

    She even changed her twitter background to her induction pic with Mueller just to troll him.

    Trump Probe Began With Russian Messages Intercepted By NSA

    The FBI counterintelligence investigation of Donald Trump and his campaign’s troubling connections to the Kremlin actually was initiated when alarms were set off by signals intelligence

    , or what spooks call “SIGINT” — meaning messages and conversations intercepted by the NSA and its allies in foreign intelligence agencies.

    Schindler reminds us that “multiple SIGINT reports” gathered by NSA and allied agencies as early as 2015, involving

    interactions between Trump and his circle and “known or suspected Russian agents,” set off su ions in U.S. intelligence agencies.

    Amplifying NSA’s own data collection,

    such reports came from agencies in Australia, Germany, Estonia, Poland, France, and the Netherlands.


    Some of the most incriminating information first came from NSA’s most trusted partner, the United Kingdom’s innocuously named Government Communications Headquarters, or GCHQ.

    Concerning those British contributions, Schindler quotes the Guardian, which reported on the Trump-related intercepts last year.

    “GCHQ was at no point carrying out a targeted operation against Trump or his team or proactively seeking information.

    The alleged conversations were picked up by chance as part of routine surveillance of Russian intelligence assets.


    Over several months, different agencies targeting the same people began to see a pattern of connections that were flagged to intelligence officials in the U.S.”


    But the Western intelligence agencies

    weren’t “wiretapping” Trump, as he has ludicrously claimed.

    They were instead listening to the Kremlin and its spies, as usual, and finding repeated conversations and connections implicating Trump.

    According to Schindler, a senior NSA official recently told him that

    when the Republican convention ratified Trump’s nomination in July 2016, “We knew we had a Russian agent on our hands.”

    Classified above top secret and available only to a handful of officials, the damning reports on the Republican nominee clearly indicated that the

    Russians felt they controlled Trump, that they were seeking to turn the election in his favor — and that

    Trump and his children were well aware of these nefarious machinations.

    Whether and how Robert Mueller will be able to use such highly classified data in a criminal investigation remains to be determined.

    But there is little doubt that if those reports exist, the former FBI director has seen them.

    where's the requirement that any mention of emails be made? Mueller runs a type ship, no leaking "mentions"

    "unprecedented" yep, Trash and his mafiya's numerous and long-time communications, meetings with Russian mafiya is unprecedented

    Oh, the Russians had good and helpful information on Clinton that the Trump campaign could use to lose the election.

    today's conspiracy.

    Trump accuses Mueller of ruining 'young and beautiful' lives of his campaign staffers

    Donald J. Trump

    @realDonaldTrump

    Who’s going to give back the young and beautiful lives (and others) that have been devastated and destroyed by the phony Russia Collusion Witch Hunt?

    They journeyed down to Washington, D.C., with stars in their eyes and wanting to help our nation...

    They went back home in tatters!

    7:41 AM - May 27, 2018


    Yes, Donald Trump is waxing lyrical over

    starry-eyed youths like

    69-year-old Paul Manafort,

    51-year-old waif Michael Cohen,

    little Michael Flynn, and

    toddler Rick Gates

    who have had their poor naive eyes moistened by the realization that not everyone gets to the promised autocracy-land.


    Or at least, not without a pardon.

    little 65-year-old Roger Stone.

    After all, it’s not as if

    Manafort and Stone worked for years to create a business referred to as
    The Torturer’s Lobby

    for its habit of working with the world’s worst dictators. Except that they did exactly that.

    Donald Trump bemoaning the “young and beautiful lives” of his band of aging, treason-happy thugs, is

    another reason why
    English doesn’t have the words to adequately describe the depths of Trump’s loathsomeness.

    =============

    "I understand that it has been HHS's long-standing interpretation of the law that

    ORR is not legally responsible for children after they are released from ORR care,"

    [Steven Wagner, a top official with the Department of Health and Human Services] said.

    Meanwhile, Trump’s team is denying that it has any legal responsibility for 40,000 children it ripped away from parents, sent to concentration camps, or simply lost.

    By “released” Wagner means “lost.”

    Even Boko Haram only kidnapped 276 children.

    Trump has them beat by an order of magnitude.

    Manafort loses again, but the big news is why he lost.



    Someone else besides Manafort and Gates could be in the barrel over their shenanigans.

    Trump seems to definitely be had on obstruction. Nearly a closed case on that from what's public.

    Mueller is holding the last nail for that coffin.

    Do you think Sessions would lie or go to jail for Trump?

    On behalf of all the DoJ salami, Rosenstein is letting Trash slice Rosenstein's salami into the salalmi/ lessness

    President Trump Is Taking Control of the Mueller Probe in Slices

    Hungarian communist leader Mátyás Rákosi invented the phrase “salami tactics” to describe how his party established a dictatorship. The phrase has come to describe a way of

    taking power in increments,

    by forcing your opponent to repeatedly choose between either giving up a small concession – a slice of the salami –

    or staging a total confrontation.

    To the extent President Trump has a conscious strategy against the Russia investigation, this is it.

    If Trump had baldly demanded a year ago that he be handed full control over the prosecutorial powers of the Justice Department, many of his coalition partners (Republicans in Congress) would have revolted. Instead he has encroached step by step upon the Department’s independence.

    At each step, his opponents have had to choose between giving him one more slice of salami and staging an irrevocable breach.

    The salami is getting shorter, and Trump’s final demands are drawing closer.


    Trump fired James Comey in May 2017. Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein could have resigned rather than put his name on a transparently disingenuous letter justifying Comey’s firing.

    Rosenstein’s willingness to write a letter supporting the firing was the first slice of salami.

    Many more have followed.


    Rosenstein has shared do ents used in the Mueller probe with Congress,

    given Congress access to Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act applications.

    rules also prevent the Department from communicating directly with the president about an active investigation, but after Trump viewed this distancing as an “affront,” Rosenstein is now giving up on this rule, too.

    At some point, however, he will have surrendered so much control that there will be nothing left to fight for.

    Trump’s disguised ends are growing increasingly naked.

    Rather than denying that Trump’s campaign colluded with Russia, he is portraying collusion as some murky and undefinable act.

    So now Giuliani is simultaneously all but conceding that members of the Trump campaign colluded with Russia,

    and calling the entire investigation illegitimate.

    Congressional Republicans are determined to seize control of the Mueller investigation before voters have a chance to strip them of the majority that gives them the power to do it.

    “the pressure to use these tools to get disclosure is growing, as congressional Republicans worry about losing their oversight authority in the midterms, and suspect the Justice Department is stringing them along for that very reason.”

    http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2018/05/trump-is-taking-control-of-the-mueller-probe-in-slices.html


    Does Rosenstein have a long enough "salami" to have any salami left by mid-terms?
