Fixated? How about obsessed?
one word: Whitewater.
They should be fixated although there is nothing they can do about it. These investigations are the only reason for the entire office to exist. There are no other cases to divide their attention. Absent pardons, this will go on for years.
Of course, I expect everyone named Trump, Kushner and a few others to be fully pardoned by year end at the latest.
Pretty good scope, hey boys? But just think of the billable hours (suggestion: get paid in advance for at least 4000 hours each, plus any associates that will be doing work - better throw in a few meals, too).
This is the best article I have read so far on Trump vs. Mueller legal aspects very little speculation. Team Treason blowing a lot of b/s.

Thatās a lot of damned smoke; Iāll bet there is a fire somewhere.
Trumpās lawyers are the smartest guys in the room. Each one of them will tell you so.
Science is fake. These are lies.
Good article!
Best roundup Iāve come across so far - thanks Allegra!
next yearās top movie: Trumpās Towering Inferno.
Which - I think we should all keep in mind - began in 1978, some 16 years prior to Fiskeās appointment as Special Prosecutor(much less Starrās).
So, just to recap:
- 16 years is within scope of precedent
- initial cause for investigation of precedent was very far afield from a blue dress, topically
- political affiliation and partisanship, per precedent, is really kind of irrelevant
Agree. There are so many things wrong with this administration and their campaign, itās good to have even some of it laid out like this so we donāt forgetā¦Iād completely forgotten about Jared running a āsecureā server to Russia amongst the many other criminal or near-criminal things this klan has done.
Is Rebekah Mercer being investigated? Wasnāt the data analytics firm hers (the one that Jared bragged about working w/ during the election)? and/or didnāt she fund this?
Fixated? How about terrified and looking for any possible way to stop this.
Looks like it just got a bit bigger.
I knew it! I knew it the second the little shit took a question from Franken that wasnāt about him and blurted out his pre-rehearsed coverup perjury as if it was.
Yeah, yeah, we have to take into account the possibility that the Russians say shit just to stir shit up because they know theyāre bugged. But we also have to take into account that the tell the truth just to stir shit up because theyāre bugged.
And because Iām middle aged, I had to go back and look at what I said back in what turned out to be March before touting my own precognition, just to make sure I wasnāt making it up and patting myself on the back for nothing and was, as usual, surprised at how much Iād forgotten. Forgotten, specifically, about how the answer at his confirmation hearing that led directly to the recusal that led to Muellerās appointment unfolded. Hereās the money:
He told two lies he need not have told, two lies he could have avoided telling, simply by answering the question that was asked rather than answering one that had not been asked. And that, my friends, is the thing that people who are guilty, guilty, guilty do when a question hits closer to the mark than the questioner intended. Thatās the kind of thing that people who who have a Big, Big Thing theyāre consciously trying to conceal because they fear consequences do.
Itās interesting to observe what things about this investigation seem most likely to cause Trump Twitter Freakouts (TTF). Surely no one, and definitely not experienced investigators, would consider that to be a prime indication of where it would be most valuable to dig furtherā¦
I havenāt bothered to read the Breitbart article, but there actuallty is quite a lot of fake peer reviews (and also āPredatory Science Publishersā) around.
I can recommend http://retractionwatch.com/ , which keeps track on retractions, retraction-handling (often done very badly, with no cause given ) and the causes for retractions (and often it IS fabricated results (e.g.image manipulation), but it can also be for privacy reasons, copyright violation, duplication of own results, plagiarizing (others or oneself)). The comments are often very good.
Just a random example (image manipulation) Journal retracts nine papers in one day by author under investigation at the Weizmann Institute ā Retraction Watch
And another re fake peer reviw A new record: Major publisher retracting more than 100 studies from cancer journal over fake peer reviews ā Retraction Watch (Springer is a major scientific publishing house based in Germany, not related to Axel Springer, if anybody remembers him)
Wow. Thereās an awful lot in that ānothing-burgerā
