Read the LAST paragraph first.

Prince had no formal role with the Trump campaign or transition. However, according to people familiar with the Seychelles meeting, he presented himself as an unofficial envoy for Trump to high-ranking Emiratis involved in setting up his discussion with the Russian official.

Anyone notice that Devlin Barrett is one of the authors of this story?

Devlin Barrett seems to have his nose pointed into the wind and knows which way the wind is blowing. I guess one might call it a fusion guided mission.

I thought Mueller was investigating Russia interfering with the campaign. This so called meeting took place right before the inauguration. If Trump was trying to establish a back door to the Kremlin AFTER the election, that proves there was no collusion DURING the election.

This is after the election and should be outside the scope of the alleged Russian interfere but apparently Rosenstein rubber stamps everything Mueller does. Next, Trump’s cousins uncle investigated for jaywalking.

Mueller is a fascist pig and McConnell and Ryan lack the stones to reel his criminal ass in.

Next time Trump will know that the proper way to talk to russia is to hire a US law firm that hires a US company to hire a UK flunky to be the go-between.

Putting at least 3 layers between you and ANYTHING is the way it works in DC even if Russia isn’t involved. It lets you deny what you were doing when you’re caught. And it grows the bureaucracy into a dysfunctional mess that can’t accomplish anything just like DC wants it. Just look at the layers between warnings to the FBI about the FL school shooter and preventing the shooting. Nothing was done right, but nobody is responsible.

And people want to impeach Trump for not using middlemen and actually getting things done. Even if accusations are true, he didn’t do anything that other candidates do, he just did it directly.

So an incoming President isn’t supposed to have any dealings with ferriners?

So I guess in Mueller-Justice-Think, if someone says someone else’s name while doing something bad the entire life of that someone else should be investigated, along with everyone he’s ever known.

This crap needed to stop about a year ago. The RATS (and their minions) can’t be allowed to continue this until the next election (which is clearly their plan).

Total kook nonsense. If anyone has to be jailed for “lying” about a transition meeting which was perfectly legal, then Hillary et al need to hang.

I stopped at just before the inauguration. This was *after* the election was already won and I would not have cared if the incoming Trumps were opening backchannels to Russia, China, Iran, Cuba, Mars or Pluto. He's simply getting a head start on the world he is about to inherit. This is not criminal behavior. I repeat, this is not criminal behavior. If Mueller spends all this money to prove it happened, it's a waste of time. Now, if he wants to prove there was perjury, it's not going to get as high as the president.

I read the entire article and i am in awe of what a nothing burger with double no cheese this is. There is no crime here. At the very worst, thenincoming administration was establishing a communication line . So what? Really!! So what. Mueller should be fired and arrested for defrauding the American taxpayers
