Opinion: Is Trump in Putin’s Pocket?

It might be possible that you didn’t believe he was the Manchurian Candidate, however after this Joint Conference in Helsinki, Finland this 16^th July 2018, than you might believe it too. Who am I talking about, by all means Donald J. Trump, the United States President, he seems clearly compromised and looks like he is in the pocket of the Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin. Since they can hold a secretive meeting for two hours and say whatever they like afterwards. There were no one else than two people translating between the parties and no one to monitor the event. Meaning, in the meeting they could be talking about their wives, their ex-girlfriends or even about the deals they have done in the past. Therefore, as the defensive President Trump was in the Joint Conference, it is hard to believe anything the liar says. However, he has always been apologetic over Putin and Russia. Today, it went to level of foolishness.

The key quotes of Trump foolishness is right here:

“TRUMP: So let me just say that we have two thoughts. You have groups that are wondering why the FBI never took the server. Why haven’t they taken the server? Why was the FBI told to leave the office of the Democratic National Committee? I’ve been wondering that I’ve been asking that for months and months and I’ve been tweeting it out and calling it out on social media. Where is the server? I want to know where is the server and what is the server saying? With that being said, all I can do is ask the question. My people came to me Dan Coats came to me and some others they said they think it’s Russia. I have President Putin. He just said it’s not Russia. I will say this: I don’t see any reason why it would be. But I really do want to see the server but I have I have confidence in both parties. I really believe that this will probably go on for a while but I don’t think it can go on without finding out what happened to the server. What happened to the servers of the Pakistani gentleman that worked on the DNC? Where are those servers? They’re missing. Where are they? What happened to Hillary Clinton’s emails? 33000 emails gone, just gone. I think in Russia they wouldn’t be gone so easily. I think it’s a disgrace that we can’t get Hillary Clinton’s thirty three thousand e-mails. So I have great confidence in my intelligence people but I will tell you that President Putin was extremely strong and powerful in his denial today and what he did is an incredible offer he offered to have the people working on the case come and work with their investigators, with respect to the 12 people. I think that’s an incredible offer. Thank you” (National Public Radio – ‘Transcript: Trump And Putin’s Joint Press Conference’ 16.07.2018, link: https://www.npr.org/2018/07/16/629462401/transcript-president-trump-and-russian-president-putins-joint-press-conference?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter ).

It is like he doesn’t trust the FBI, neither any other parts of his intelligence organizations, but if Putin says it isn’t so, it isn’t so. How blind or dumb is he? Trump is showing his ignorance and played ones. Thinking he can get away with this. Certainly, this should put people into fire in the United States. He shows how compromised he is. Not that I believe the Congress or Capitol Hill will do anything, because they have been helping this charade going for months. They have worked against the Russian Probe on the hill and also against the works of Special Counsel Robert Mueller. Therefore, he might continue as he said nothing.

President Trump has really shown his golden nugget. I got Putin. Putin said so, therefore, I had to believe him. It is like he is oblivious about the transfers of information caught by the investigation, neither about the leaks and revelations that has been. The strong connections and the meeting between the Trump Campaign and Russians. Even the not secured meeting with former Ambassador Kislyak and Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov. All of that should let the bell rings, still the Republican Party has done nothing or anything worth a damn.

Now that he speaks like this, the US should be shocked, but will they act upon it? I doubt it. Than they had done already. President Trump is the Manchurian Candidate and he trusts more the denial of Putin, than his intelligence organizations. You could wonder why?

Does Putin have the Pee Tape and the Golden Shower video from the Miss Universe days in Moscow?

Is that why Trump is accepting and is in the pocket of Putin?

Certainly, he has been to friendly and compromised, the US should be shocked of the way Trump has acted in public today. Peace.

Russian Probe: Mueller is unmasking Guccifer 2.0 & DC Leaks!

As the case is proceeding on the Russian interference, today is another day in the proof of conspirators from Russia who directly interfered in the United States Presidential Elections of 2016. This as 12 more Russians are indicted. This is explaining connections to the hacking from two major sites, which was even in the headlines as they leaked vital information from the inside of the Democratic Party to vandalize the affair. They clearly succeeded.

These was operations done through Main Intelligence Directorate of the General Staff (“GRU”) who ordered and fixed the operation, this planned hacking and release of stolen document was deliberate activity to undermine the democratic efforts in the United States. They stole e-mails and document in the April 2016 from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC), they did also steal from the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and finally the Clinton Campaign too.

After stealing it, they planned how to release it in June 2016 as the launch of Presidential Campaigns and also in the finalization of the long campaign season into the polls. These document was released through DC Leaks and Guccifer 2.0, these are two pages where the hacked documents was released. What these indictments show, is that they have not touched on the stolen E-Mails from campaign manager John Podesta and the Clinton Campaign, which was released in the months ahead of the polls in 2016.

Therefore, Robert Mueller is showing that he has evidence of conspiracy towards 12 more individuals, also the GRU connections, which shows that the Kremlin wanted to interfere and did it directly. This is shown in combination of the previous indictments of Russians and the Internet Research Agency and connected “businesses”. These two filings of documents shows how sophisticated the activity was. These activities are with a clear mission to show the dark side of the party organization in the United States.

Special Counsel Robert Mueller has pumped up the ante. Now it is on. As well as the cases going with Paul Manafort and the coming cases on Michael Flynn, George Papadopolous, Alex Van Der Zwaan, Richard Gates, Michael Cohen and the rest. There are certainly enough documentation and leads to go anywhere. As all of them have done certain things and far from everything has come to the surface.

There are more information to come, but when it has been this much evidence and connections directly to Kremlin by the FBI. You know their will be revealed even more, when the trials are starting. As of now, the cards are hold tight by the State Prosecutors. There will be more and more people involved. Who knows where this goes, but this is far from final. Peace.

Russian Probe: Paul J. Manafort – Court Order (29.05.2018)

Russian Probe/Skeet Skeet Skeet Part 10: Revealed info from Senate Report and Interviews!

“If you could read, you knew shit.” – Michael Moore

Yesterday, was an assault of information released concerning the Trump Tower Meeting the 9^th June 2016, the infamous meeting about adoption, even if the Trump’s oldest son was awaiting information of conspiring dirt on Hillary Clinton, which they had to get. Since Trump later did proclaim that he would hold a Press Conference, where all information would be released. Therefore, the information coming out within the last 48 hours been much. I will give the gist that is important.

Because during the same time, there was another of these Financial Disclosures forms made by the President. This is significant, but also showing how blatantly distrustful we can be about them. Becuase suddenly there are omitted loans and funds connected to Trump’s Personal Lawyer Michael Cohen, they we’re not admitted on the 2015, 2016 or 2017, but suddenly added on the 2018. Therefore, the reasons for the IRS Tax Returns, because the OGE Financial Disclosures are just calculated to blow up the image and keep the rest at bay. That is evident since they are released now and not during the campaigns and neither in the first of the Presidency. Your naive if your thinking differently.

However, that is just the skeet skeet skeet, that follows this administration, because the President is not known for keeping his pinky in his pants. But there are bigger fishes to fry, than his infidelity. President Trump and his campaign has had so many connections and so many meetings with Russians, that it is hard to keep up. That even as the documents were released yesterday, the realization, that the final say will be what the Special Counsel Robert Mueller Indicts and Charges. As he has already charged plenty, 3 companies, and has 3 plea agreements. Therefore, the case is moving and the reality should hit the White House. As Paul Manafort case is moving on and will be put on trial. While Trump connected lawyer Alexander Van Der Zvaan is already behind bars. While Robert Gates, George Papadopolous and Michael Flynn is already working with the FBI. So the initial information will be there, with tiem and within the court documents.

So, whatever that was revealed yesterday through the interviews are vital, but they are also a side-show. To the narrative and case-building of Mueller. What was important from the Senate yesterday is this: ““Despite the short time frame they had to prepare it, the intelligence community did a very good job with the ICA,” said Vice Chairman Warner. “After a thorough review, our staff concluded that the ICA conclusions were accurate and on point. The Russian effort was extensive, sophisticated, and ordered by President Putin himself for the purpose of helping Donald Trump and hurting Hillary Clinton. In order to protect our democracy from future threats, we must understand what happened in 2016. And while our Committee’s investigation remains ongoing, one thing is already abundantly clear – we have to do a better job in the future if we want to protect our elections from foreign interference.” (Richard Burr – ‘Senate Intel Completes Review of Intelligence Community Assessment on Russian Activities in the 2016 U.S. Elections’ 16.05.2018).

So the Republicans and Democrats in the Senate Intel Committee are directly saying it and countering the Devin Nunes inspired forged investigation in the House Intelligence Report, that came not to long ago. This is really showing how partisan and how far-fetched from reality the House Republicans are at this point. They are clearly obstructing the investigation and the possible breaches are damning. That the Republicans in the House are working in accord with the White House, while the Senate has been more independent. That is why they conclude in a different manner.

Like this part from the interviews released yesterday, Glenn Simpson Interview on the 22nd August 2017:

“In the early the very first weekend that I started boning up on Donald Trump, you know, I found various references to him having connections to Italian organized crime and later to a Russian organized crime figure named Felix Sater” (…) “I understand it, is that the Trump people were eager to accept intelligence from a foreign government about their political rivals and that is, you know, I would say, a form of interference. If you’re getting help from a foreign government and your help is intelligence, then the foreign government’s interfering. I mean, you know, I think that also of course, in retrospect we now know this was pretty right on target in terms on what it says” (…) “The alleged incident that’s described here is the one that he was referring to. As I say, I don’t have really any additional information beyond this except that — I mean, it’s probably in here somewhere actually, but it’s well known in intelligence circles that the Russians have cameras in all the luxury hotel rooms and there are memoirs written about this by former Russian intelligence agents I could quote you. So the problem of kompromat and kompromating is just endemic to east-west intelligence work”.

That is just Glenn Simpson from the Fusion GPS, the ones who hired Christopher Steele, who made the Golden Showers dossier. That has within Memo’s from Comey, shown how obsessed Trump has been about this. The reality, is with time less and less is questionable about the affairs and possible intelligence in the report, because the passages has been verified. That shows the bleak reality of it all.

What was vital from Donald J. Trump Junior, was that he had during his interview, the same defense line like Jeff Sessions, he couldn’t remember if he was eating, sleeping or screwing someone. Because he couldn’t remember anything. It is like he needs to get his mind checked and get his memory tested at a hospital, because no one with a working mind forgets these details. Your not clean slate and stupid. Pardon me, but I don’t believe a calculating man like Junior to be that.

However, that Donald J. Trump Junior said in his interview on the 7^th September 2017:

“A. Potential information about an opponent. Q. Potential incriminating information on Hillary Clinton? A. Yes . Q. And what about the thing that say s “It is part of Russia and its government’ s support for Mr . Trump,” did you also love that? A. I don’t know. I don’t recall Q. Did you understand that that would be problematic? A. I didn’t think that listening to someone with information relevant to the fitness and character of a presidential candidate would be an isssue, no” (Donald J. Trump Junior, 07.09.2017).

So we can see, how the Trump Campaign was inconsiderate of their role and that Junior himself has no problems with collusion with Russians. As he just wanted to get incriminating information if possible. That the Russians had it, he didn’t mind and therefore, helped setting up the meeting with all the people that June day in 2016.

To follow another interview by the Senate, here is what was a key moment in the Irakly “Ike” Kaveladze interview: “So whoever I just mentioned, obviously all participants of the meeting, and a gentleman named Roman Beniaminov. He worked with Rob Goldstone. I called him on June 7 to should I continue or wait for a question? BY MR.FOSTER: Q. Please, please. A. Okay. And right after I received an ema il from Mr . Goldstone about three individuals we were going to be meeting with, I got a little bit puzzled because at that point o f time, all I knew about the meeting, that it’s going to be Magnitsky Act , and I was unclear why exactly these people are meeting with us. I was in two conversations prior to that with Mr . Agalarov. You know, my suggestion was to meet with attorneys of Mr. Trump because she’s an attorney, Ms.Veselnitskaya, and probably the proper level of communication with her. And so I called Roman because I knew he worked with Rob, and I asked him, ” Do you know anything about that meeting? ” And, “ Do you know anything about the fact that we’re going to be meeting with three top political electoral campaign representatives to discuss Magnitsky Act? ” And at that point of time, Roman told me that, as far as he heard, attorney had some negative information on Hillary Clinton”.

Therefore, the emailing with Trump Junior is verified by Ike and the main agenda, wasn’t the Russian adoption as later professed, but instead get dirt from foreign agents on the Clinton’s. If that shouldn’t be a sign of breach of trust and also foreign intelligence interference in an election. Nothing is, that even Kaveladze is saying. So, the ones inside the Trump Campaign knew this and certainly got enough out of it, to have the famous press conference.

Anatoli Samochornov said this during his interview on the 8^th November 2017:

“I can ‘t speak for Ms . Veselnitskaya. know that she was expecting something else from the meeting, something bigger. She said, “This was it.” (Anatoli Samochornov, 08.11.2017).

So, there was specific plans for it, but if this trying to cover it up. As the interpreter didn’t recollect more either. There is a collect amnesia in the sense of this meeting and what was discussed, other than the adoption of Russians. Which all seems strange, considering the emails and phone calls before the actually meeting. It is like the participants take the public for fools.

Rinat Akhmetshin interview on the 14^th November 2017:

“Q. And who led t he meeting? A. Trump, Jr., led the meeting. Q. So how did the meeting start?

A. With small talk. It started with small talk. You know, they invited us. There’ s like little chatter, like, okay, what a beautiful room, what a beautiful view. You know, just — then Ms.Veselnitskaya, prompted by me, congratulated them on this win in the primaries. And then Mr. Trump, Jr., said, ” So I believe you have some information for us.” (Rinat Akhmetshin, 14.11.2017).

Here prove the intent of the Trump Campaign, that one of the people in the room remembers that Junior was ready to continue the pattern from the emails before the setting up of the meeting. If this wasn’t important, if they didn’t have information on the Clinton Campaign, he wouldn’t love it and take it in. That because he wanted dirt and didn’t care if he colluded with a foreign force. He might say he doesn’t recollect, but other ones who was there remember certain aspects, that makes it all questionable.

Robert Goldstone Interview on December 15 2017:

“She talked about — I heard her talk I about names Browder, Ziff, and funding t o the DNC. .And I didn’t know of Browder, know of Ziffs. I had obviously heard of the DNC. So it didn’t — I was waiting, if there was some smoking gun, which is why I had been asked to do this, and I thought if t here was, there would be a reaction from somebody around the table. So I was really paying no attention until maybe somebody reacted. After a few minutes o f this labored presentation, Jared Kushner, who is sitting next to me, appeared somewhat agitated by this and said, I really have no idea what you’re talking about. Could you please focus a bit more and maybe just start again? And I recall that she began the presentation exactly where she had begun it last time, almost word f or word, which seemed, by his body language, to infuriate him even more “ (Robert Goldstone, 15.12.2017).

I look forward to the Court Documentation on the Trump Tower meetings and all the other possible places the Russian agents and actors meet with Trump Surrogates and the Trump Campaign. As so many of them has been in connection with them. As well as they hacking the Democratic Party, which they released online to destroy the Clinton Campaign. Which they did with full force. It was interesting leaks, that shown inside works inside an American Campaign and the team of Presidential campaigning, which we haven’t seen before. However, the way of getting that information was illegal and the leaks was done with well-planned machinery in favor of the other candidate. That just happen to be Donald J. Trump. His team was blessing that, and Trump did say, read WikiLeaks on the Campaign trail. So this cannot be forgotten in the big picture.

There are so many Russian connections, so many loose ties to this and hopefully it all we be revealed in the Mueller Probe. That is what I hope for, that he has the financial transaction that Trump has kept from the public. That the probe has the transcripts and the timeline of communications between all the Trump Campaign and Trump Surrogates, even before the meetings of Russians in the time before running as Presidential Candidate and also during. So, that all the ties can be connected and make sense. Which, with all the drip-drops are showing the intent. Now that Kushner got mad is out too. There are really more behind the meeting, than what the Trump Campaign has confessed, they even tried to keep hush about it for long too.

Therefore, when they have kept it as a secret, every single piece along the way, when the Trump Campaign and the Trump Organization haven’t revealed their true status. We know that something is up. Because they cannot be sincere about their holdings, their transactions or their meeting. Which is vital for trust. Nevertheless, hopefully the investigation will show all of it and the drip drops of the activity of the New York Gang will come to the main street and be revealed. Peace.

Russian Probe: Matlock denied, sorry I meant Manafort!

“Sometimes I tell what I know…. and sometimes I don’t” – Ben Matlock

Well, Mr. Matlock, 007 or Paul Manafort, the previous campaign manager for the Trump Campaign during 2016. Whose been indicted by the Special Counsel Robert Mueller. He and his attorneys has recently filed a complaint to the Courts, which was denied today. They we’re claiming the scope and the mandate of the Special Counsel was to free, he was overstepping and also not investigating within his jurisdiction. Today that got dismissed in court by the order of Judge Amy Berman Jackson.

What is striking is this defense of the Special Counsel against Manafort:

“The gravamen of Manafort’s motion is his contention that the Special Counsel has embarked on an unfettered and unsupervised investigation, and that the inquiry should have been cabined by a specific factual statement delivered by the Acting Attorney General at the outset. But the Acting Attorney General has stated publicly in sworn testimony that he did discuss the facts under investigation with the Special Counsel at the time of the appointment. Testimony of Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, House Committee on the Judiciary, Hearing on Justice Department’s Investigation of Russia’s Interference in the 2016 Presidential Election (Dec. 13, 2017), Ex. B to Gov’t Opp. [Dkt. # 244-2] at 29. The notion that this formal passing of the baton included an investigation into Manafort is borne out by the fact that the FBI was taking significant investigative steps related to Manafort within a very short period of time after the Special Counsel was appointed” (Crim. Action No. 17-0201-01 (ABJ).

So it was not like there was some investigation of Manafort already, just like they knew about certain things about Carter Paige and Gen. Michael Flynn. Who both was monitored by the Security Agencies and Intelligence Agencies in United States. Not like they didn’t have information on them, as the state had allowed several times to follow and wire-tap Paige. That means, they could collect more information on his informal and direct connections. All of this means, that everyone in and around Trump could have given information. Vital ones that the CIA and FBI already knows about. That we have no idea about yet. But will be dropped publicly with time.

Manafort and his business with Russian Oligarchs and Ukrainians, will be addressed, the connections, the financial disputes and the possible money-laundering, will be put in place. Not just what that has been written in Court documents already. Because that is the only solutions and possible leaks there are from the Mueller Probe. Which shows how professional and sincere his drive is. Even as Paul Ryan and Devin Nunes trying to undermine his efforts, and the whole Department of Justice. Since they are waterboys for the President. Who doesn’t comply to rule of law, since they are sitting in Congress and currently the leader of the Judicial Committee, even as Nunes Committee have early stopped their investigation. While Mueller continues to follow the suspects and leads in the case.

It is like the whole Republican Party knows they are into something shady, but has tried to undermined it all along, together with the Conservative Media. Instead of thinking of the implications and possible breaches of their own sovereign state, that Kremlin and their agents can play them like pawns on the Chess-set. If the ones behind Iron-Curtain knew it would be this easy, they wouldn’t have spent so much on the arms-race in the past. Just kidding, but you get my gist.

Also maybe, Manafort should take a hike, since his buddy buddy Richard Gates has pleaded guilty, therefore, whatever Gates knew about Manafort business and transactions, Mueller already knows. That is why Manafort should not fight, but also consider his place. As Manafort has the papers and the dots to connect his activity, he wondered, he could just ask Gates. Who because of his agreement would kiss and tell. Therefore, no worry buddy, Mueller already knows!

What we learned today, is that the scope of Mueller is free and monitored by Rod Rosenstein, the Deputy Attorney General. Therefore, he can follow the evidence and make cases as he sees fit. The Special Counsel has followed the orders and also his mandate, the jurisdiction is there. Therefore, Matlock was dismissed. Peace.

Russian Probe: Richard Gates – Joint Status Report (08.05.2018)

Russian Probe: Praecipe for Subpoena to Paul J. Manafort (03.05.2018)

Russian Probe: Flynn Joint Status Report (01.05.2018)

Russian Probe: Two Reports, one manufactured from Nunes, another one from the Minority opening doors for a wider scope gone missing!

You know when you have homework with fixed tasks and questions to deliver the next day. That the teacher expects answer in the light of the field and examine the context of the matter. If it is math, that you find the right method to analyze the numbers and if its social science, you find the right theory or the right political ideology to answer the questioned put. However, the House Intelligence Report on their Russian Probe, was botched work and weak sauce. It wasn’t a real deal, its so easy to see, that it was a partisan product, which wasn’t finished, unless the redacted parts would have shed lights into the manner, that could have configured another result. Because the ones who has followed, knows that the House Intelligence Probe quit early and didn’t even investigate all angles. Meaning it quit early to save face and humiliation of possible outcome. That is what I as an outsider can see and Devin Nunes is the bastard kid of Donald Trump from California.

Therefore on page 28, they had to write: “No credible evidence was found supporting either alternative, including a review of information contained in classified intelligence reports”. That was to be expected by the Republican House Intelligence Majority report. However on the same page, its quoted: “Russlan-state actors and third party intermediaries were responslble for the selective dissemination of information from hacked U.S. political systems. This represents a “significant escalation in directness, level of activity, and scope of effort” In Russia’s “longstanding desire to undermine the US-led liberal democratic order.” It is therefore likely that high-level Russian government approval was required in both planning and execution of the operation”. With this in mind, doesn’t the one statement counter the other?

Its like you cannot have significant undermining the democratic order from Russia, high level government approval, without them collusion with anyone? That would be weird, why get involved into something and not have contacts and possible candidates? Why fix to change situations in another country and not know who your cooperate with. It would be like the US is rigging elections in Latin America, which they have historically used to do. They would handpick their man and party, then make sure that the puppet get elected either by a coup or by rigging. That is just the way it is, why would it be differently for Russia in the United States?

When you continue to read through the Republican reports, its like its dodging every bullet and initiative, that every evidence that has been put forward, every signal of connection with Russians as meaningless. For every page that is how its portrayed, every meeting, every leakage. Its like the venom has swallowed the former-patriotic party. Since, the patriotism now isn’t to DC, but maybe to Kremlin. Since they are defending it so much. What is even more striking, is that the narrative of the involvement of Russian Interference in Europe are more key to the Report, than what actually happen in the United States. That the Republican Party tries to sway the opinion and use it as a fire-starter, even as we know they are afraid of really shedding lights on what happen in- and before November 2016.

But while they we’re saying such, “no collusion”, the message of Trump himself, on Page 128, this was stated: “Russian attempts to influence the American political process, including via intermediaries and cut-outs, did not end on Election Day. The universe of pre-and postelection contacts between Russjan intermediaries and Trump associates described in· Chapter 4 suggest a sophisticated effort to target unwitting Americans by leveraging existing relationships, interests, and opportunities. Therefore, both U.S. government entities and campaigns in particular must strengthen their defenses against such subversive tactics, beginning \:nth expanding counterintelligence education and training”.  So the Republican Party see the connection and their work, but don’t think these meetings has any ground. Even if they are supported and ordered from Putin. It is weird, but that is initially saying.

Well, when we look at the Minority Report, it has another scope and view on the Russian Probe. The whole intelligence gathering and lack of investigation from the House Committee. Which was evident, as the Majority lead committee wasn’t interested in digging deep or even find anything. That is why we should praise God, that the Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein appointed Special Counsel Robert Mueller to investigate the matter within the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). So the whole thing can be pertinently investigated.

However, the first key quote from the Minority report says on page 2: “The Majority’s report reflects a lack of seriousness and interest in pursuing the truth. By refusing to call in key witnesses, by refusing to request pertinent documents, and by refusing to compel and enforce witness cooperation and answers to key questions, the Majority hobbled the Committee’s ability to conduct a credible investigation that could inspire public confidence. The Majority’s conduct has also undermined Congress’ independent investigative authority. Their repeated deferrals to the White House allowed witnesses to refuse cooperation, and permitted the Administration to dictate the terms of their interaction with Congress, or evade congressional oversight altogether, setting a damaging precedent for future non-cooperation by this President and, possibly, by his successors”. This shows what sort of Hack-Work Devin Nunes has done in favor of his President and his Party. Not being loyal to the Republic, but one man on the top.

When you then can quote this from page 9, you know the Republican’s really did everything to dodge the questions needed answering: “The Majority also made no effort to engage the Special Counsel about interviewing central witnesses in this probe: Michael Flynn, Paul Manafort, Rick Gates, George Papadopoulos, and George Nader. To ensure a credible investigation, particularly on the issues of collusion, financial leverage and money laundering, and obstruction of justice, the Committee must interview these individuals. All but Manafort have entered into cooperation agreements with the Special Counsel, and the Committee should have engaged with his office to determine when interviews could proceed without impairing his work. The Minority made a motion to do so at the time the Majority sought adoption of its report, but the Majority voted against pursuing interviews of these key witnesses. The transcript of the March 22, 2018 Committee business meeting is incorporated in Chapter VI. The Majority’s refusal to seek testimony from George Papadopoulos exemplifies its efforts to impair the investigation. Without interviewing Papadopoulos and seeking relevant records to determine whom on the campaign he would have reported this overture to and assess whether any follow-up occurred, the Committee was unable to examine the precise facts regarding Russia’s approach to Papadopoulos, during which they informed him they possessed stolen Clinton-related emails and, crucially, previewed their later dissemination of this information. Only weeks later, the President’s son, Donald Trump, Jr., would take a meeting in Trump Tower with other Russian emissaries offering dirt on Clinton. This yawning gap in the investigative record, and many others, fundamentally undermines the credibility of the Majority’s findings”.

It’s kinda hard to find something, when you don’t investigate. As I said, when your not interviewing the members of the team in question and has decided the verdict before trying. Then, we have to pray that the plea deals, the documents ceased by Mueller by Cohen and the evidence collected from Manafort. Can at a later point, give final nail in the coffin. Because the Republicans really didn’t try, when they are running around not even trying. That is what this shows. Neglect of their role as an Investigation Committee within the Capitol Hill.

On page 11 its said: “The Majority’s systematic refusal to use the Committee’s subpoena power to advance the Russia investigation has weakened Congress’ independent investigative powers. Combined with the Trump Administration’s disregard for congressional authority and disdain for the investigation, this sets a dangerous precedent for future relations between the White House and Congress”. The Majority and Nunes didn’t give way or to subpoenas, which would have gathered information on the possible interference in the elections. Was squashed, just like the possible interviews. If you feel pattern, it is because the neglect of duty is extravagant. If the Republican Representatives tries to pull of patriotic stances after this, its a lie, because their loyalty are to Trump and not to the Republic.

On page 41, the sadness continues: “Similarly, Committee Republicans refused to subpoena the company for records related to communication between WikiLeaks, its founder Julian Assange, or Russian cutouts responsible for disseminating hacked emails—such as Guccifer 2.0 and DC Leaks—and Trump campaign personnel, including Roger Stone and Cambridge Analytica”. If they did care about the interference, about the internal squabble, the stealing of E-Mails and Campaign Material suddenly taken by foreign powers, why didn’t the Majority, the Republican Representatives accept the subpoenas to look into it and get the information from the sources. So that it could be established where they got the data, get the leaked documents and emails. However, the Republican’s couldn’t care or take their time to accept it.

So, the truth is not out yet. But what is really shown, is how the Republicans and the President doing what he can to hide his connections. Even if he is bad at it, because this doesn’t make the Republicans or the President less innocent. It just make you question their motives more, as the obstruction of justice within the Justice Department and within the FBI. Have been shown since the firing of Sally Yates and James Comey. This will continue. Since the Trump Campaign and Trump Organization will be finding certain documents that can incriminate them. Why I say that, why are they stifling the investigations and ordering the Nunes around like a hound dog on the hill?

This story is not over, the Mueller investigation will shed all light, but Nunes again dropped a phony paper. The only thing he is good at these days, he should go back to California and sell wine. Not be a politician, he is bad at it. Peace.

Russian Sanctions: Elliot Broidy Proposal to Russian Company Novatek (23.02.2017)
