There is something we are missing and the media are missing. The Russian lawyer went to Trump Jr. supposedly having dirt on Hillary. There was no dirt and the meeting was totally legal. This meeting in all probability was the basis for the FISA warrants and wire tapping of Donald Trump and associates.
The lawyer has connections to the Democrats and the Russian government.
It is my belief that Comey or some other creature of the swamp sent her to meet Trump Jr. in an effort to get the FISA warrant approved.
Twitter ‘storm’ implies more than one ...
If only they would have given their findings over to Holder and then Lynch, the MSM would have been all over it and Obama and Holder and Hillary would be in jail. Right?
There was a Clinton Foundation back then, started in 1997. There were vague plans for future international charity work. But the nonprofit focused mainly on Little Rock, where Clinton was planning a library and a graduate school of public service, and envisioning an urban renaissance for the city that nurtured his political career. So the famously obsessive Clinton obsessed some more about buildings in Little Rock.
But the truly big brainstorm of the Clinton Foundation’s early years came on that plane to Davos in 2004. Friends saw Clinton — the lost, lonely, TiVo-bingeing ex-president — transformed into a champion of Harlem and an international philanthropist. A celebrity, even among celebrities.
That night in Switzerland, Band began to work on a memo proposing a new kind of conference.
It was September 2005. A year and a half after Band’s brainstorm, the first meeting of the Clinton Global Initiative was a smashing success. Some Clinton aides had been skeptical that it would work, but Clinton had shrewdly timed it to coincide with a meeting of the U.N. General Assembly — when New York was already chockablock with world leaders looking for something more interesting than a meeting of the U.N. General Assembly.
From 2004 to 2006 — the years before and after Clinton’s new conclave began — his foundation’s revenue more than doubled, from $58 million to $134 million.
At times, the Clinton Foundation has employed several key members of Hillary Clinton’s political team.
During her tenure as secretary, the foundation paid a second salary to Huma Abedin, Clinton’s official personal aide, who acted as a contractor to the foundation. The foundation hired Maura Pally, now acting chief executive, who worked previously for Hillary Clinton at the State Department and served as deputy counsel for her 2008 presidential campaign. Dennis Cheng, another Hillary Clinton aide, went from Clinton’s 2008 campaign to the State Department to the foundation and then to the 2016 campaign.
The Clinton Foundation also hired as a consultant Sidney Blumenthal, a longtime adviser to both Clintons from their White House days, paying him $10,000 a month starting in 2009 to advise a project to promote Bill Clinton’s presidential legacy, several people familiar with the arrangement said. (Blumenthal’s salary was first reported by Politico; foundation officials would not confirm it.)
After the former president had quadruple-bypass surgery, the foundation partnered with the American Heart Association to fight childhood obesity. After Clinton borrowed a plane from Canadian mining magnate Frank Giustra, the foundation began a new development effort — funded in part by $100 million from Giustra — that included anti-poverty programs in a number of countries where Giustra has had business interests.
By 2009, the foundation had grown to a $242-million-a-year organization. It had nine branches, plus independent fundraising arms in Canada and Britain.
At the center of it all was Clinton, inhabiting a role he had created for himself: a “convener.” He wasn’t a philanthropist, at least in the classic sense. He was more like the world’s middleman.
In many cases, Clinton persuaded the rich and powerful to give, and he lent their gifts a tint of global prestige as they passed through. As Clinton blessed their money, their money blessed him, too. When he traveled to Africa, aides said, massive crowds strained to get a look at him.
There was other obvious proof of his exalted new status. The world’s most powerful men went out of their way to see him.
For Clinton, the foundation had re-created many of the things he loved about the presidency — cheering crowds, an army of aides and a resonant sense that he was doing good on a global scale.
But the former White House employee who made the most in the foundation’s heyday was probably Clinton himself. The ex-president didn’t take an official salary from the foundation. But he has received at least $26 million in speaking fees from companies and organizations that were major donors to his foundation. And in many cases, what Clinton got paid to speak about was, in part, the foundation.
Ladies and gentlemen, it’s time to drain the swamp. Let your Congressmen know that you want action NOW!
Then fire Muller
From press accounts I've read you are correct. We know now the Russian lawyer had a "probation visa" issued by the State Department and should have been long gone after completing her "visa business" on behalf of her Russian client. I'd like to see an INS explanation of how she hung around after the visa expired. I ditto your assumption this staged lawyer visit might have been used for further FISA requests.
FWIW.
It seems that a number of former 0bama administration Attorneys are working at Perkins Coie.
Donald Trump can do something so why isn’t he?
If I were president, the clintons and obamas would have been arrested the first day.
“If I had Trump’s power, I would. In fact, the Swamp would’ve been completely drained by last spring.”
It’s the appearance of power. 100% of the stinkin swamp(within margin of error) voted for that treasonous corrupt harpy.
That’s called total corruption. The swamp is in open rebellion to the Trump admin. Including the repubikans in congress chomping at the bit to impeach him.
The corrupt-state’s message to Trump:
“Fine, so you won an election, now try and govern...
In the meantime, we’re going to appoint a special counsel and try to remove you from office.
Enjoy your stay”
“The only thing Sessions is going to drop is a big turd on the American People.”
Sessions has already dropped a moab on Trump and the American people.
First, choosing Rosenstein as DAG...then recusing himself. Sessions single-handily gave legitimacy to hillary’s ‘russian collusion’ bullsh!t.
It only got worse from there with Rosenstein appointing a special counsel to investigate ‘russian collusion’.
Sessions, the beady-eyed deep-state controlled rat bastard, hobbled Trump right out of the gate. Killed the critical momentum Trump needed to try and wrest control of the swamp and MAGA.
What should Mueller have done? Resigned? Gone public? People knew about the deal. Even Congressman King; I think, sent a letter to FBI about the Uranium deal. Where was his follow-up? There is a lot ghosts following the Clintons through life, it would take really brave people to face the possibility of losing their life. Obama, the global communist, like any communists would opt for killing his opposition. He was elected because the press refused to throughly vet him and he governed like a dictator with the blind & full support of the press.
I don’t believe the press was fooled. Tyranny will always happen, when the press is politically compromised.
As for the right? After decades of identity politics, political correctness, oppression, Stockholm syndrome, RINOS and lies many are finding their power and voice. The left is so fortunate, that coming out of this the right wants to re-establish the rule of law! Because pitchforks through the hearts of all those global communists and their media is a good option.
BS. He could appoint a Special Prosecutor. There’s any number of angles he could take. Twitter ain’t one.
Dear AG Sessions:
Time is not on your side. Impanel grand juries, present evidence and obtain indictments. Go to the judges and obtain warrants.
Arrest, try and convict.
Otherwise, step aside.

I respect you, Larry, so I'm going to hold my fire, but I'm not convinced that Sessions is doing a damn thing to protect the President and bring the enemies of the republic to justice.
Not convinced at all.
unless Mueller was part of a Trump-Sessions plan well before the election. You don’t spook your quarry if everyone thinks that the prosecutor is going after you.
We need judge Jeanine to replace sessions
