So, for the next nine months, or until the following happens, we're going to repeat 24/7 the following:
"McCarthy’s suggestions may now be a more plausible-than-ever:
1) Appoint a special counsel to investigate political spying, including unmasking and leaks to the media.
2) Have Congress hold hearings on whether the Obama Justice Department colluded with the Hillary Clinton campaign to influence the outcome of the 2016 presidential election.
3) Have Congress hold hearings on collusion between the Clinton Foundation and Russia.
We the People need to hammer this home until it's done. Fight On for our Sacred Republic!
I can’t believe McCain doesn’t realize this is also about him.
I think Muller has seen the writing on the wall and he is on the losing side. He will try and come out of this smelling like a rose. I bet pretty soon he will try kissing Trump butt.
The fact that it’s on page 18 tells you all you need to know.
Freepers, read this article and pass it on!

Thank you very much for your nice post. Brought tears to my eyes. (But I’m a famous softy so don’t get too excited.)
Hang in there. Keep pushing. We are winning.
Wow! Good to hear your news about your family relative waking up to reality.
I was just thinking today that my own folks, who were very conservative, might not have liked President Trump were they still alive. However, they never would have voted for Hillary.
I, myself, had to adjust to Trump last summer. I would never have voted for Hilary but I wasn’t fond of Trump. My best friend told me “Trump calls them like he sees them. He’s not politically correct. “ Then I relaxed and decided I would join him. There was no other choice for me.
well i’m working on this. very rough draft.. started after andrew mccarthy got me pissed with his article about “well trump should do such and such cause the DOJ and special counsel isn’t following the law anyway.” i’m spitting nails.
Notice to Office of Inspector General of the Department of Justice of the united States.
CC: Library of Congress
CC: Office of the President of the united States
CC: Charles Grassley in his appointed capacity as Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee of the united States
I, Keith van Brunt, a citizen of Pennsylvania, one of the several States which has formed the united States, am exercising my God bestowed right to redress grievance for these governments failure to establish justice for which purpose it has been instituted.
The Department of Justice of the united States shall be considered on Notice for the failure to faithfully carry out the laws of the united States as promulgated in 28 CFR 600 sections 1 though 10. The officers of the Department of Justice of the united States are currently and flagrantly in breach of their oath of office. This notice shall not be limited to officers of the Department of Justice, or to citizens currently participating in the unlawful Special Counsel, or to members of the congress who are obstructing the justice of the united States in violation of the laws of the united States and it’s fundamental constitution.
Grievance,The First: The ORDER NO. 3915-2017 published by Acting Attorney General Rod J. Rosenstein violates 28 CFR 600.1 through 10 which desribes the regulations for appointing a special counsel to the attorney general of the attourney general of the united States. This order is fraudulent on it’s face. ( See exhibit A ). The order is fraudulent in that it fails to provide grounds, alternatives, qualifications of the special counsel, jurisdiction of the crime to be investigated, use of qualified Justice Department staff, as the code requires. The order specifically ignores sections one through three which specify grounds, alternatives, qualifications, jurisdiction, and the staffing of said office of counsel. This appears to be done with knowledge aforethought and with understanding of the CFR governing the appointing of special counsel to the Justice Department of the united States.
a. Grounds. The Federal regulation states:
§ 600.1 Grounds for appointing a Special Counsel.
The Attorney General, or in cases in which the Attorney General is recused, the Acting Attorney General, will appoint a Special Counsel when he or she determines that criminal investigation of a person or matter is warranted and -
(a) That investigation or prosecution of that person or matter by a United States Attorney’s Office or litigating Division of the Department of Justice would present a conflict of interest for the Department or other extraordinary circumstances; and
(b) That under the circumstances, it would be in the public interest to appoint an outside Special Counsel to assume responsibility for the matter.
The grounds for appointing the special counsel as stated in the letter by Rosenstein is based on heresay links between Russian government and individuals associated with the campaign of President Donald Trump.
The Special Counsel is authorized to conduct the investigation confirmed by then FBI Director James A. Comey in testimony before the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence on March 20, 2017, including:
(i) any links and/or coordination between the Russian government and individuals associated with the campaign of President Donald Trump;
This is insufficient grounds for appointing a special counsel as promulgated in 28 CFR 600.1, and can be construed as an intentional violation of the regulation which states that the attorney general will appoint a Special Counsel when he or she determines that criminal investigation of a person or matter is warranted based on conflict of interest by the attorney general.
Neither the attorney general nor the acting attorney general have warranted any criminal investigation regarding the subject matter of links and/or coordination between the Russian government and individuals with the campaign of President Donald Trump.
If there is a criminal investigation, the failure of the acting attorney general to establish these grounds for the appointment of special counsel is to be considered fraud. The establishment of the office of special counsel has been made under color of law.
The fraudulent appointing of this office of special counsel by the acting attorney general is especially heinous given the circumstances and declared grounds of the acting attourney general as stated in the letter “The Special Counsel is authorized to conduct the investigation confirmed by then FBI Director James A. Comey in testimony before the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence on March 20, 2017” the former FBI director, who used his office and stated under oath that he unlawfully leaked top secret information to the press for the purpose of establishing this office of special counsel. The acting attorney general appears to be working in collusion with a confessed felon.
the successful perpetration of this fraud is evident in the
b. Failure to address alternatives with the Justice Department with which to
600.2 Alternatives available to the Attorney General.
When matters are brought to the attention of the Attorney General that might warrant consideration of appointment of a Special Counsel, the Attorney General may:
(a) Appoint a Special Counsel;
(b) Direct that an initial investigation, consisting of such factual inquiry or legal research as the Attorney General deems appropriate, be conducted in order to better inform the decision; or
(c) Conclude that under the circumstances of the matter, the public interest would not be served by removing the investigation from the normal processes of the Department, and that the appropriate component of the Department should handle the matter. If the Attorney General reaches this conclusion, he or she may direct that appropriate steps be taken to mitigate any conflicts of interest, such as recusal of particular officials.
C. qualifications of the special counsel,
600.3 Qualifications of the Special Counsel.
(a) An individual named as Special Counsel shall be a lawyer with a reputation for integrity and impartial decisionmaking, and with appropriate experience to ensure both that the investigation will be conducted ably, expeditiously and thoroughly, and that investigative and prosecutorial decisions will be supported by an informed understanding of the criminal law and Department of Justice policies. The Special Counsel shall be selected from outside the United States Government. Special Counsels shall agree that their responsibilities as Special Counsel shall take first precedence in their professional lives, and that it may be necessary to devote their full time to the investigation, depending on its complexity and the stage of the investigation.
(b) The Attorney General shall consult with the Assistant Attorney General for Administration to ensure an appropriate method of appointment, and to ensure that a Special Counsel undergoes an appropriate background investigation and a detailed review of ethics and conflicts of interest issues. A Special Counsel shall be appointed as a “confidential employee” as defined in 5 U.S.C. 7511(b)(2)(C).
d. jurisdiction of the crime to be investigated,
600.4 Jurisdiction.
(a)Original jurisdiction. The jurisdiction of a Special Counsel shall be established by the Attorney General. The Special Counsel will be provided with a specific factual statement of the matter to be investigated. The jurisdiction of a Special Counsel shall also include the authority to investigate and prosecute federal crimes committed in the course of, and with intent to interfere with, the Special Counsel’s investigation, such as perjury, obstruction of justice, destruction of evidence, and intimidation of witnesses; and to conduct appeals arising out of the matter being investigated and/or prosecuted.
(b)Additional jurisdiction. If in the course of his or her investigation the Special Counsel concludes that additional jurisdiction beyond that specified in his or her original jurisdiction is necessary in order to fully investigate and resolve the matters assigned, or to investigate new matters that come to light in the course of his or her investigation, he or she shall consult with the Attorney General, who will determine whether to include the additional matters within the Special Counsel’s jurisdiction or assign them elsewhere.
(c)Civil and administrative jurisdiction. If in the course of his or her investigation the Special Counsel determines that administrative remedies, civil sanctions or other governmental action outside the criminal justice system might be appropriate, he or she shall consult with the Attorney General with respect to the appropriate component to take any necessary action. A Special Counsel shall not have civil or administrative authority unless specifically granted such jurisdiction by the Attorney General.
e. use of qualified Justice Department staff, as the code requires.
f. budget
600.8 Notification and reports by the Special Counsel.
(a)Budget.
(1) A Special Counsel shall be provided all appropriate resources by the Department of Justice. Within the first 60 days of his or her appointment, the Special Counsel shall develop a proposed budget for the current fiscal year with the assistance of the Justice Management Division for the Attorney General’s review and approval. Based on the proposal, the Attorney General shall establish a budget for the operations of the Special Counsel. The budget shall include a request for assignment of personnel, with a description of the qualifications needed.
(2) Thereafter, 90 days before the beginning of each fiscal year, the Special Counsel shall report to the Attorney General the status of the investigation, and provide a budget request for the following year. The Attorney General shall determine whether the investigation should continue and, if so, establish the budget for the next year.
(b)Notification of significant events. The Special Counsel shall notify the Attorney General of events in the course of his or her investigation in conformity with the Departmental guidelines with respect to Urgent Reports.
(c)Closing documentation. At the conclusion of the Special Counsel’s work, he or she shall provide the Attorney General with a confidential report explaining the prosecution or declination decisions reached by the Special Counsel.
Grievance the second. The attorney general of the united States has violated the regulations for recusal of attorney generals recusal “””” and therefor is continuing the fraud perpetrated by the acting attourney general. The regulation for recusal of a government employee as outlined in 28 cfr 45.2. The regulation (28 CFR 45.2) is entitled,
No employee shall participate in a criminal investigation or prosecution if he has a personal or political relationship with: (1) Any person or organization substantially involved in the conduct that is the subject of the investigation or prosecution; or (2) Any person or organization which he knows has a specific and substantial interest that would be directly affected by the outcome of the investigation or prosecution.
Could you please post the Cliff Notes version in English, please? I couldn’t get past the first sentence.
I’d like to understand what you wrote.
I’m hiding in honduras, I’m a desperate man
Send lawyers, guns, and money
The s*** has hit the fan!
Excellent !
Send.
So why has Drudge SPIKED all these stories??
Did they get to him???
Mueller has to recuse himself because of:
28 CFR 600.7 - Conduct and accountability: https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/28/600.7
28 CFR 45.2 - Disqualification arising from personal or political relationship: https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/28/45.2
Recuse: to remove (oneself) from participation to avoid a conflict of interest. So, does Mueller have a conflict of interest? Well, duh.
Why hasn't Mueller resigned yet? If he doesn't resign, Trump is obliged to fire him. Mueller is straight out breaking two laws just by accepting the position of special prosecutor. When will this insanity stop?

I checked Drudge, also. He doesn't update much over the weekend. We'll see if he picks it up tomorrow.
Yes winning. But I don’t know, Mr. President, if I can take any more winning. (lie) :)
I thought redstatewatcher went out of business.
It’s alive and well and bookmarked. They keep their news current every ten minutes or so.
I automatically discount anything online with “Bombshell” in the title as clickbait.
Comment #57...
Still not seeing anything from Drudge on all the new information concerning Democrat wrongdoing and possible collusion with Russians.
