Witness: DNC Runs Deep in Mueller Investigation, Trump Won’t Get a “Fair Shake”
There’s a reason that courthouse statues of Lady Justice depict her wearing a blindfold: the law is supposed to be enforced impartially and fairly, with no bias given to either side… no matter how famous or unpopular the person on trial.
The impartiality of special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe has already been called into question, after top agents involved in the investigation were exposed for having a clear anti-Trump bias.
Despite those concerns, however, the Deputy Attorney General and others assured Congress that they could stay impartial as the case unfolds. Now, a disturbing new report suggests that the deck is once again stacked against the Trump administration.
“The federal grand jury handing down indictments for special counsel Robert Mueller doesn’t appear to include any supporters of President Donald Trump, according to one witness who recently testified before the panel,” wrote journalist Richard Johnson for the New York Post’s Page Six.
“The grand jury room looks like a Bernie Sanders rally,” Johnson’s inside source allegedly told him.
“Maybe they found these jurors in central casting, or at a Black Lives Matter rally in Berkeley [Calif.],” Johnson wrote, quoting a source who apparently had been inside the hearing chamber.
“Of the 20 jurors, 11 are African-Americans and two were wearing ‘peace T-shirts,'” the reporter continued, still referencing his unnamed witness. “There was only one white male in the room, and he was a prosecutor.”
In other words, it sounds su iously like the grand jury may have been handpicked to be biased against Donald Trump and his administration.
That was certainly the conclusion that the witness allegedly came to after testifying for the panel. “That room isn’t a room where POTUS gets a fair shake,” the source admitted, according to Richard Johnson of the Post.
The grand jury has already indicted Paul Manafort, a member of Donald Trump’s campaign before the now-president fired him. That same panel is now looking into whether or not there were improper connections between Trump’s team and Russia, a claim that has been called into question numerous times.
There are major concerns about how involved the Obama-era Justice Department was in the infamous “Trump dossier” that was largely fic ious and clearly meant to smear the GOP candidate.
Many of the officials involved in the current probe are holdovers from that Democrat administration, as was Mueller’s personal friend, former FBI director James Comey.
More serious red flags about the bias of Robert Mueller and his investigation were recently raised when FBI Special Agent Peter Strzok, who was involved in both the Hillary Clinton email investigation and the Russia probe, was caught sending incredibly anti-Trump messages to his mistress, another FBI employee.
“So this agent in the middle of almost everything related to Secretary Clinton and President Trump, sent pro-Clinton texts, anti-Trump texts,” summarized Republican Congressman Trey Gowdy during a fiery exchange last month.
“This ‘conflict of interest free’ senior agent at the FBI can’t think of a single solitary American who would vote for Donald Trump. Not a single solitary American he can imagine would vote for Donald Trump,” Gowdy said at the time.
Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein weakly insisted that he and his team would be unbiased, but Gowdy didn’t seem convinced.
If the New York Post’s Page Six report is accurate, he may have had good reason to be skeptical. Lady Justice seems to have lifted her impartial blindfold… and she may have replaced it with an agenda.

it would take 6 more years just to catch up to Trump's golf expenditures. And that's if he quit playing golf today.
You're re ed. Basically you can say all of your posts are predictions because when you get called out on your bull you got nowhere to hide so you say it was just a prediction or made in jest as a copout.
You're a loser.

DOJ not even trying to lie this is politically motivated.

Fusion’s Russia Fog
The Steele dossier hit men now claim to be political victims.
Let’s see. The Clinton campaign hires Fusion GPS, an opposition research firm, to investigate the Trump campaign. Fusion hires a former British spy, Christopher Steele, who produces a dossier based on Russian sources full of rumor, hearsay and an occasional fact to allege collusion between the Kremlin and Trump campaign. The dossier gets to the FBI, which uses it to justify opening a counterintelligence probe of the Trump campaign, perhaps including a judicial warrant to spy on Trump officials. Then Fusion has Mr. Steele privately brief select media reporters, ensuring that the dossier’s contents become public before the election.
And now Fusion GPS complains about being a victim? Only in Washington, folks.
***
That’s the sob story spun by Fusion GPS founders Glenn Simpson and Peter Fritsch Wednesday in a New York Times op-ed that matches the Steele dossier for disinformation. The Fusion duo portray themselves as valiantly working to “highlight Mr. Trump’s Russia ties” by providing the FBI with “intelligence reports” that corroborated “credible allegations of collusion between the Trump camp and Russia.”
For exercising their “right under the First Amendment,” Fusion laments that it has been subject to Congressional harassment and a “succession of mendacious conspiracy theories,” including by us. Oh my.

Fusion is talented at producing dirt for hire, including for Russians to smear human-rights activist Bill Browder. The problem is the veracity of its work, and the cofounders don’t name a single example in their op-ed of something that proves the dossier’s claim of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. Eighteen months after the dossier hit Washington, the FBI, special counsel Robert Mueller and Congress have also offered no public validation of its collusion allegations.
The Fusion boys pat themselves on the back for “having handed over our relevant bank records,” but the firm stonewalled Congressional committees for most of 2017, refusing to divulge the names of its clients (the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee) and even suing to prevent access to its bank records. In court do ents, Fusion has also admitted to paying journalists during the election, though it refuses to disclose the names, amounts or purposes of the payments.
As Mr. Browder notes on Twitter , the Fusion op-ed also “conveniently omits” that it “worked for Russian gov’t interests trying to repeal Magnitsky Act [sanctions] at the same time [it] was working on the dossier.” Mr. Simpson met with his Russian client, Kremlin-connected lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya, before and after she sat with Donald Trump Jr. in Trump Tower in June 2016.
Mr. Simpson continues to claim he knew nothing about her Trump meeting and that she knew nothing of his Steele dossier work—though you’ll have to take his word for the coincidence. As for Fusion’s deep concern about “an attack on our country by a hostile foreign power,” the firm’s concern about Russia—and its human-rights abuses, for which the Magnitsky sanctions were imposed—would seem to stop at its bank account.
Far from being victimized, Fusion has been protected by a Beltway press corps stocked with allies who rely on the firm for scoops. Fusion also has friends in the FBI and Justice Department who have a mutual interest in blocking Congress from discovering how the dossier was used to investigate the Trump campaign.
Toward that end, the New York Times reported on the weekend that the real Rosetta Stone of the Trump-Russia probe was a drunken conversation in May of 2016 by junior Trump staffer George Papadopoulos. This narrative would have us believe that the FBI hinged its probe on a man it didn’t bother to interview until 2017, and about whom it didn’t brief Congress until months after the election.
By the way, the FBI or Justice Department sources who leaked this story almost surely broke the law in disclosing classified information about details collected by intelligence agencies about the meetings and conversations of Mr. Papadopoulos, a private citizen. Yet the FBI and Justice still refuse to tell Congress how they used the Steele dossier.
***
Fusion now says it wants Congress to release transcripts of Mr. Simpson’s interviews with committees, a change from his refusal last year to appear in public session before the Senate Judiciary Committee. By all means, disclose it all, along with FBI agent-source reports on the Steele dossier and the surveillance warrant applications that Justice refuses to release.
Americans deserve to know what really happened last year—not merely accept the obfuscation of Fusion’s political hit men.

“House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, R-CA, and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein spoke at length Wednesday night, just hours before Nunes’ imposed midnight deadline on the Justice Department passed.”
“Rosenstein not only agreed to provide all the do ents requested, which include unreacted FBI interviews with witnesses, as well as, access to eight key FBI and DOJ witnesses but information on Andrew Weissmann, whose now a senior member of the special counsel.”

Federal Judge Deals HUGE Blow To Fusion GPS In Bank Records Battle
A federal judge has ruled against Fusion GPS in the Trump dossier firm’s quest to block the release of its bank records to the House Intelligence Committee.
Judge Richard Leon shot down all four of Fusion’s arguments against the release of 70 records of transactions involving some of its clients as well as journalists and researchers it has paid since Sept. 2015.
Fusion sued its bank, TD Bank, in October, to prevent it from complying with a subpoena issued by the House Intelligence Committee, which has been looking into Fusion’s role in putting together the dossier.
That subpoena, issued by committee chairman Devin Nunes on Oct. 5, prompted Perkins Coie, the law firm that represented the Clinton campaign and DNC, to reveal that it had hired Fusion GPS in April 2016 to investigate Trump.
Fusion, which was founded by three former Wall Street Journal reporters, later hired Christopher Steele, a former British spy with experience in Moscow.
Fusion argued that the court should quash the committee’s subpoena on four separate grounds.
The company argued that the subpoena for bank records lacked a valid legislative purpose, that it was too broad and the records being sought were not relevant to the committee’s Russia probe, that it violated Fusion’s First Amendment rights, and that it violated statutes prohibiting the release of bank records to government authorities. (RELATED: UNSEALED: Fusion GPS Bank Records Show Russia-Related Payments)
Leon shot down all of the arguments, including Fusion’s assertion that Nunes had no grounds to issue a subpoena because he had recused himself back in April from the Russia probe.
“Unfortunately for plaintiff, the record contradicts its claims,” wrote Leon, a George W. Bush appointee.
Leon rebutted the claim — pushed by Fusion and Democrats alike — that Nunes had actually recused himself from the investigation.
He pointed to Nunes’ oft-cited press release in which he ceded control of the committee’s day-to-day operations to Texas Rep. Conaway. But “nowhere in this press release did Chairman Nunes ‘recuse’ himself from the Russia investigation,” Leon notes.
“He retained the power to issue the Subpoena at issue in this case.”
Leon also said that the committee’s subpoena is not overly broad. He noted that it has already been revealed that Fusion ordered Steele to brief several news outlets on the dossier. Therefore, the subpoena may reveal “relevant information” about payments to reporters.
The Intelligence committee has stated in past court filings that Fusion’s bank records shows that it has made nine separate payments to three unidentified journalists who wrote about or commented on Russia-related issues during the presidential campaign and into 2017.
Fusion also did work for a Russian businessman with links to the Kremlin. The oppo firm was paid by the businessman’s law firm, BakerHostetler.
Leon also dismissed the idea that the bank subpoena violates Fusion’s First Amendment right to free association.
“Plaintiff points to no authority to support its theory that the freedom of association protects financial records,” says Leon.
Leon did not set a date for when TD Bank must release the Fusion bank records.
