Originally posted by frank ryan View PostI'm not sure why you'd call it a nothing burger. There has not been anything conclusive yet, but there is plenty that demands further scrutiny and plenty that feeds the suspicion that something happened, including the 9 or 10 Trump with ties to Russians, meetings where dirt on client was discussed, and promises of enacting Russia-favorable promises before being in office. Flynn alone is a big deal. He is cooperating with Mueller. If Mueller is allowed to finish his investigation (a huge if at this point) I'm confident something damning in regards to Trump will come to light.
That makes zero sense. You are giving him far to much credit. Ted just regurgitates outlets like Alex Jones and Breitbart.Last edited by BlueK; 12-14-2017, 10:46 AM.

I haven't looked very far into it, so tell me what is so horrible.
Here's what I understand. One of the agents working on the investigation seemed to really hate Trump. Said a bunch of dumb disparaging/dumb things. Doesn't have any financial interest or other real interest in taking down Trump beside really not liking the guy (AFAIK, correct me if I'm wrong). Muller finds out about the dumb things the guy said and removes him from the investigation in the Summer.
Is that an accurate description of the situation?
If so, this is a huge nothingburger. The process is working as it is supposed to.
For the record, the collusion investigation so far only has nothingburgers. Lying to the FBI is dumb and serious but there isn't anything related to collusion yet.

Of course, this has fired up the GOP'ers and now they think that Strzok used the Steele Dossier to get the FISA warrant to spy on Drumpf....
So while the Russian hacker thing is a big nothingburger so far (how long has this investigation been going on again?) this new FBI text message revelation is starting to get entertaining. #ReleaseMoreFBITextMessages!"If there is one thing I am, it's always right." -Ted Nugent.

Why would that matter? US intel agencies have a long history of working with Steele going back to his work with the British gov. He was considered an expert when it to Russia. BTW, the dossier hasn't been discredited. Steele has said he thinks about 70 to 80 percent is true.
Did anyone call for investigations into people who investigated Hillary? You think everyone involved had nice things to say about her? Strzok knows a lot than you, I or rep Jordan. Maybe he has some good reasons for being alarmed by Trump.

Mueller and his "unbiased" team have had close to a year, armed with that yuge amount of "proof" in the steele dossier, to show that the Russians interfered with the 2016 presidential election. When are they going to arrest Drumpf? The entertainment coming from the Mueller team is low."If there is one thing I am, it's always right." -Ted Nugent.

Originally posted by BlueK View PostI'm sure Trump would love for it to be illegal for someone to say bad things about him in their private emails, but it's not. This isn't about a crime, so just doesn't meet the qualifications for a special counsel. At worst it just means he should be recused. Oh wait, Mueller already did that.
Some of these texts appear to go beyond merely expressing a private political opinion, and appear to cross the line into taking some official action to create an “insurance policy” against a Trump presidency.
Creating an "insurance policy" sounds a little gangster-like...

Originally posted by PaloAltoCougar View PostAnother independent counsel, Ken Starr, took about four years to dig into Whitewater, and at the end of his investigation the most significant thing his team came up with was a smudge on Monica Lewinsky's dress which led to an impeachment.
