I’ve had the same thoughts.

Plus he folded like a cheap suit with the whole Christian pizzeria thing.

when he said “goodness no”, i still didn’t know who he was and thought he sounded like a fruit.

Let’s hope we dont have to find out.

TOOBIN: Today’s the first day I actually thought Donald Trump might not finish his term in office. Three or four times I've seen this suggested in recent days. #TheLastTrump

But wouldn’t that be disastrous for the country? I guess some things in life are more important.

I was going to tell you that Rush made no mention of Amazon, but here it is

RUSH: Now, remember when Jeff Bezos and Amazon made a deal with New York City to locate headquarters 2 in Long Island City. And what was the deal? That Amazon would get a tax break to the equivalent of 60 to $70,000 per employee. Was there collusion there? Did the state of New York and the city of New York collude with Amazon? You might say, “Well, yeah, but Amazon’s not a foreign government.” Ha. Maybe.

My apology

Ending it would lead to the obstruction charge they dream of.

I wouldn’t count on a 3/5 vote in the senate for acquittal either. I think the republicans would fold under pressure and vote with democrats for removal. JMHO

Strongly disagree. 49 votes max to convict President Trump. The procedings would explode and backfire on the Dems, a la their Oliver North debacle.

It’s not your humble opinion

Though I wish it was.

It’s the most likely outcome if it goes to the senate.

So it needs to never reach there.

I've seen the same from Roger Stone, and someone else, whom I can't recall at the moment.

Probably started from Trump thinking out loud about how in the world did he ever allow himself to be talked into running for office and ruining his envious lifestyle.

John Solomon: “I’ll give you some breaking news right now, Sean. Just two hours ago federal prosecutors assigned to John Huber, the US attorney investigating the Clintons, reached out to a whistleblower in the Clinton Foundation – The first time we’ve seen contact between a Clinton Foundation whistleblower and that particular federal office. That just happened tonight.”...

Rush is so right it hurts to listen to him now. He’s got DOJ Insider’s and former chiefs advising him.

Who the hell in DOJ is going to stop the corruption and the hoax investigation.

Mueller and his entire team need to be arrested and indicted for federal civi rights violations, and prosecutorial corruption!

We have been misled for too long. Robert Mueller has nothing because there is nothing:

<><> Where is evidence that Trump colluded with Russians to sabotage Hillary's campaign?
<><> Where is the evidence of vote-tampering?
<><> Where and when were the meetings held to plot strategy?
<><> Just what is the strategy?

Mueller is misusing his public position in various ways.

MISUSE OF POSITION AND GOVERNMENT RESOURCES

Misuse of Position | Use of Official Title | Personal Use of Government Property | Use of Non-Public Information | Use of Official Time | Disclosing Procurement Information | Letters of Recommendation on Official Stationery

An employee may not use his official position, including information learned by virtue of his position, for his personal benefit or for the benefit of others.

MISUSE OF POSITION
An employee may not use his public office for his own private gain or for that of persons or organizations with which he is associated personally. An employee’s position or title should not be used to coerce; to endorse any product, service or enterprise; or to give the appearance of governmental sanction. An employee may use his official title and stationery only in response to a request for a reference or recommendation for someone he has dealt with in Federal employment or someone he is recommending for Federal employment.

5 C.F.R. § 2635.702 (see Subpart G - Misuse of Position; Use of Public Office for Private Gain)

USE OF OFFICIAL TITLE
Generally, an employee engaging in teaching, speaking or writing in his personal capacity may not use his official title or position to identify himself in connection with the activity or to promote any book, seminar, course, program, etc. The two exceptions to this rule are as follows:

1. An employee may allow the use of his title if it is included as part of several other biographical details and the title is given no more prominence than other information; and

2. An employee may allow the use of his title in connection with an article published in a scientific or professional journal provided there is an appropriate disclaimer.

5 C.F.R. § 2635.807(b) (see Subpart H - Outside Activities; Teaching, Speaking and Writing)

An employee engaging in fundraising in his personal capacity is also prohibited from using his official title, position or authority. In addition, he cannot solicit funds or other support from a subordinate or from any person that has business with his component.

5 C.F.R. § 2635.808(c) (see Subpart H - Outside Activities; Fundraising activities)

PERSONAL USE OF GOVERNMENT PROPERTY
An employee should recognize her responsibility to protect and conserve government property and resources, and to make an honest effort to use official time and government property only for official business. 5 C.F.R. § 2635.704 through .705 Use of Government property, and Use of official time.

An employee may not use the official time of another employee for anything other than official business. The use of any government property, including computers and the Internet, for any partisan political activities is always prohibited.

Department of Justice employees are generally authorized to make minimal personal use of most office equipment and library facilities where the cost to the Government is negligible and on an employee’s own time. 28 C.F.R. § 45.4. This is the Department’s de minimis use policy, and would permit an employee to send a short, personal electronic message to another individual. However, personal messages sent to large groups of people and messages sent to disseminate information on non-Governmental activities, such as charitable events and causes, commercial activities such as personal businesses, and religious observances, are prohibited.

If an employee of the Department of Justice has questions about the Department’s rules covering the limitations on personal use of government equipment and resources, or questions about whether planned personal use of office equipment is permitted, she should consult with her supervisor, or her ethics official.

USE OF NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION
An employee may not engage in a financial transaction using nonpublic information nor allow the use of such information to further his private interests or those of another. Nonpublic information is information an employee gains on the job which has not been made available to the general public and is not authorized to be made available upon request.

5 C.F.R. § 2635.703 (see Subpart G - Misuse of Position; Use of Non-public Information)

USE OF OFFICIAL TIME
An employee shall use official time in an honest effort to perform official duties. Generally, personal activities should not be conducted during duty hours.

5 C.F.R. § 2635.705 (see Subpart G - Misuse of Position; Use of official time)

Return to Top

DISCLOSING PROCUREMENT INFORMATION
An employee is prohibited from disclosing contractor bid or proposal information or source selection information to any person other than one authorized to receive such information.

48 C.F.R. § 3.104-4-5

LETTERS OF RECOMMENDATION ON OFFICIAL STATIONERY
An employee may sign a letter of recommendation using his official title and office letterhead in response to a request for an employment recommendation or character reference for someone provided it is based on his personal knowledge of the ability or character of the person. In addition, the individual must be someone with whom the employee has dealt with in the course of his Federal employment or someone he is recommending for Federal employment.

5 C.F.R. § 2635.702(b) (see Subpart G - Misuse of Position; Use of public office for private gain)
