Muellerhe has 'the goods' on Trump’s 4 potential acts of obstruction
Shareblue ^ | - April 12, 2018 | By Caroline Orr

Special counsel Robert Mueller is reportedly on the verge of finalizing a report detailing four acts of potential obstruction by Trump.

Special counsel Robert Mueller is reportedly about to close his obstruction probe and is preparing to report on at least four “findings” on Trump’s attempts to obstruct justice.

According to NBC News, the four areas of potential obstruction include the firing of former FBI Director James Comey, Trump’s role in drafting a misleading statement about the June 2016 Trump Tower meeting, Trump’s role in pressuring Attorney General Jeff Sessions not to recuse himself from the Russia probe, and the dangling of pardons to grand jury witnesses.

Prior to this week, Mueller’s team was expected to finalize a report on its findings on whether Trump tried to obstruct justice in the Russia investigation in the “coming months.”

However, now that Trump is reportedly unlikely to sit down for an interview with Mueller, the timeline has sped up considerably.

Talks over a presidential interview with Mueller’s investigators reportedly broke down this week after the FBI raided the office and residences of Trump’s personal attorney Michael Cohen.

As a result, “Mueller’s team may be able to close the obstruction probe more quickly as they will not need to prepare for the interview or follow up on what the president says,” NBC reported.

Once Mueller prepares his report on the four potential acts of obstruction by Trump, he is expected to send a confidential report to Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who is charged with overseeing the Russia probe.

It will then be up to Rosenstein whether to make the report public and send its findings to Congress.

If this plays out along these lines, there needs to be a citizen uprising against this political class. The next generation of bureaucratic wanna-be gods need to realize this type of corruption will not end well for them.

What did Trump’s IDIOT FARKING LAWYERS think Mueller’s end game was?

Staggering stoopidity.

The fact Mueller is leaking this to David Brock’s organization makes his motive transparent.

So let me get this straight. Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein recommends IN WRITING that the president fire Comey. Rosenstein lists several reasons why Comey should be fired. Then Rosenstein turns around and appoints Mueller, and Mueller turns around and claims the president obstructed justice by firing Comey. Now I don't have a fancy law degree, but it seems to me that little stunt is called ENTRAPMENT.

In criminal law, entrapment is a practice whereby a law enforcement agent induces a person to commit a criminal offense that the person would have otherwise been unlikely or unwilling to commit. Entrapment is illegal.

This deserves a special investigator once Mueller returns to private industry.

Dear: most of Congress, much of the _agencies_, e.g., much of DC:

“It is high time for me to put an end to your sitting in this place, which you have dishonoured by your contempt of all virtue, and defiled by your practice of every vice; ye are a factious crew, and enemies to all good government; ye are a pack of mercenary wretches, and would like Esau, sell your country for a mess of pottage, and like Judas betray your God for a few pieces of money.
|
Is there a single virtue now remaining amongst you? Is there one vice you do not possess? Ye have no more religion than my horse; gold is your God; which of you have not barter’d your conscience for bribes? Is there a man amongst you that has the least care for the good of the commonwealth?
|
Ye sordid prostitutes have you not defil’d this sacred place, and turn’d the Lord’s temple into a den of thieves, by your immoral principles and wicked practices? Ye are grown intolerably odious to the whole nation;
you were deputed here by the people to get grievances redress’d, are yourselves gone! So! Take away that shining bauble there, and lock up the doors. In the name of God, go!”

Is shareblue owned by Trump? Cause if it’s not, this is the best news in ages. The four things listed add up to absolutely nothing. Mueller’s only chance was for Trump to talk himself into trouble, and the interview isn’t happening.

Mueller evidently raided Trump’s lawyer’s office in a last ditch effort to get fired so he doesn’t have to admit having nothing.

"Potential" obstruction of non-existing collusion investigation.

That's a joke. I would be embarrassed to even dream of that. He'll go down in history as a "Special Fool."

Mueller is going to release a laundry list of crimes, misdemeanors and obstruction of justice to congress in order to give them cover to impeach Trump and THEY WILL.

This has been the end game all along. Obvious to anyone with 3 brain cells to rub together.

Sessions—>Rosenstein—>Mueller’s special counsel coup. All orchestrated by the deep-state and the corrupt rat bastards in both parties.

ShareBlue is a communist/Marxist Demonrat website. They are repackaging what was written here on NBC news:

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-mueller-teams-prepare-move-forward-without-presidential-interview-n865421

Why someone would choose to highlight the Shareblue website here on FR is beyond me.
