Multiple recent Breitbart News investigations into the infamous brief meeting at Trump Tower on June 9, 2016 between individuals tied to Russia, Donald Trump Jr. and other campaign officials point to the increasing likelihood of the confab being set up as a dirty trick against Donald Trumps presidential campaign.

Trump doesnt have to fire them, but he sure as hell could push to defund them.
Not how I took it.
So maybe the next thing is to squeeze Don Jr. and pressure Lotus into resigning to save him from getting indicted.
The meeting was decorded, no doubt. They wanted an offer to “look into the magnitsky act,” in return for promised dirt on Hillary.
Trump’s team would have been arrested, and his candidacy over.
Explain the goofy OMG! face on the goon-faced Halfrican when he met the impressive president-elect?
The dirt Hillary was supposed to sweep under the rug is now in the hands of the man the Halfrican tried to destroy.
"After all we did for her, that lousy Hillary lost. "Howm I gonna get out of the mess Im in?"
"I know, well invent Russian collusion.......lie like crazy.......setup Trump to take the blame.
OMG!! Someone molested a statue? That’s not funny.
<><> Obama was stupid enough to believe it......and,
<><> too stupid to understand he was reading falsified intel.
==================================
(HAT TIP PAS) We know this whole investigation was By The Book. Obama told them it had to be by the book.
Problem is the Halfrican told them after the fact (in January after they had been at it for a long while). /s

Obama’s NSA adviser Susan Rice wrote a CYA memo to herself and confessed to a series of crimes that added the time line and inferences about what the outgoing Obama administration illegally concealed from incoming President Trump and his aides.
(CYA memos are rarely a good idea. Most often, they reveal things the author never intended——ala Susan Rices now-infamous email to herself.)

SUSAN RICE WRITES AN EMAIL TO HERSELF........the extraordinary email Obama’s National Security Advisor Susan Rice wrote to herself at 12:15 on January 20, 2017........within minutes of President Trump’s inauguration must have been her last act, more or less, before she vacated the White House. So obviously the email was important to her. But why would it be important to send an email to herself (the only person copied was one of her aides)?
If you read the email, along with Senator Grassleys letter to Rice, it is obvious that it is a CYA memo. But the question is, whose A is being Cd?
Most attention, so far, has focused on the first two paragraphs of the email, which describe a meeting that occurred around two weeks earlier. The participants included
<><>Barack Obama, <><>Joe Biden, <><>James Comey, <><> Sally Yateswho turns up like a bad penny whenever skulduggery is afoot <><>and Rice:
Rice made sure to underscore that Obama began the conversation by stressing his continued commitment to ensuring that every aspect of this issue is handled by the Intelligence and law enforcement communities by the book.
Rice writes Obama stressed that he is not asking about, initiating or instructing anything from a law enforcement perspective. He reiterated that our law enforcement team needs to proceed as it normally would by the book.
This is pure boilerplate. It represents, obviously, the company line. But Rice did not write her email to cover Barack Obamas rear end. If she or anyone else had wanted to document the claim that Obama said to proceed by the book, the appropriate course would have been an official memo that copied others who were present and would have gone into the file. (My guess is that such a memo was written, but we havent seen it.)
The important part of the email is not the paragraph that purports to exonerate Obama, but the paragraphs that follow: “From a national security perspective, however, President Obama said he wants to be sure that, as we engage with the incoming team, we are mindful to ascertain if there is any reason that we cannot share information fully as it relates to Russia.”
The next paragraph of the email remains classified and has been redacted. The email concludes: The President asked Comey to inform him if anything changes in the next few weeks that should affect how we share classified information with the incoming team. Comey said he would.
CONCLUSION Why did Susan Rice send herself an email purporting to document this part of the meeting? Because she was Cing her own A. Rice was nervous about the fact that, at the presidents direction, she had failed to share information fully as it relates to Russia with President
Trumps incoming national security team. Her actions violated longstanding American tradition. Outgoing administrations have always cooperated in the transition to a new administration, whether of the same or the opposing party, especially on matters relating to national security.
Susan Rice is far from the brightest bulb on the tree, but she was well aware that by concealing facts ostensibly relating to national security from her counterpart in the new administrationGeneral Michael Flynnshe was, at a minimum, violating longstanding civic norms.
If Rice actually lied to Flynn, she could have been accused of much worse. So Rice wanted to be able to retrieve her email, if she found herself in a sticky situation, and tell the world that she hid relevant facts about Russia from the new administration on Barack Obamas orders.
What were the secrets that Obama wanted to keep from the new administration? We can easily surmise that the fact that the Steele memo was paid for by the Democratic Party; that the FBI had to some degree collaborated with Steele; that the Clinton campaign had fed some of the fake news in the dossier to Steele; and that Comeys FBI had used Steeles fabrications as the basis for FISA warrants to spy on the Trump campaign were among the facts that Obama and his minions didnt want Michael Flynn and Donald Trump to know. Susan Rice, we can infer, was told to keep these secrets, and if anyone ever asked why she had failed to disclose them to Michael Flynn and others on Trumps team, or even lied to those people, she would have the defense that President Obama ordered her to do it.
There may be more to it than this. The redacted paragraph likely contains more information about what it was that Rice wasnt supposed to tell the Trump team. One of these days, we will learn what was blacked out.
The fact that Michael Flynn was Susan Rices counterpart in the incoming administration may also be significant. We know that the FBI agents who interviewed General Flynneven Peter Strzok!reported that they didnt think he had lied about anything. And yet, Obamas DOJ and Bob Muellers investigationbasically a continuation of Obamas corrupt Department of Justice under another, less accountable namepersecuted Flynn to the point where he finally pled guilty to a single count of lying to the FBI in order, as he says, to end the madness and the financial drain.
Why were the Democrats so determined to discredit General Flynn? Perhaps because they wanted to pre-empt any outrage that may otherwise have followed on revelations that the Obama administrations National Security Advisor hid important facts from her successor during the transition, and may have lied to him about those facts, in violation of all American tradition.
I was not confused by the title. Read it again. The topic of the article is exactly what I thought it would be.
Collusion to do what, exactly?
Get dirt of the Hillabeast, but wait, there is nothing in federal criminal law that obtaining opp research is a crime. What to do, what to do?
Once the dookie hits the fan, I think this is how the Leftists and media (but I repeat myself) will try to spin it - that it was just political "dirty tricks" and not criminal/treasonous behavior.
Cheer up. This could all end up like a good movie with a good ending, just like The Godfather.
Mueller is covering his own ass with his investigation.”””
Mueller is building his own bank account by dragging everything on & on & on.....
I am so tired of this made up setup..
Mr President, release all of the documemts.
Hillary sold 20 percent of our uranium to the Russians while secretary of state in return they were paid huge amounts of money to their so called global initiative, this is all ok, bite me
So was this Hillary's attempt to pre-empt Trump bringing up the Uranium One scandal during the campaign?
