OT: Politics & News... Have at it.

I know progressives like to pick and choose what law should be followed but until the law changes, it's not illegal.
 
You guys do realize this investigation will delve back into the Clinton emails again right? Hold onto your hats.
 
Every time I land on CNN, and listen to what they are saying, i'm reminded why Trump keeps criticizing them.

They are wayyyyyyyyy past journalism......this is a witch hunt, and it's honestly shameful to see guys like Tapper and Cooper go so low.

Yes Trump lies, yes Trump looks lost.....but to focus 24 hours of your air time to criticize him, really ?


How about we mention how Trump has China puzzled and guessing....for the first time in 8 years, China isn't taking liberties around Korea-Japan...I guarantee you that if Clinton would have done what Trump is doing with regards to China-North Korea, then CNN would be doing 24 hour segments on how tough Clinton is, and how she is showing the axis of evil that they can't mess with the USA. North Korea trying to send missiles is truly funny...China really is desperate to pushback....

I don't agree with Trump's limited ban on immigration, but someone had to start somewhere....it sent a direct message to the world that a new sheriff is in town.

As if Obama didn't screw up in his first year in office......he gave the banks a blank cheque after the crisis, without holding them accountable....that was truly a million times worst than anything Trump says or does.
 
The irony here is that a special counsel has been assigned without a crime. Indeed a witch hunt. The Democrats cried and cried, and cried again, and the DOJ buckled. It sets a bad precedent.

Please tell me you aren't trying to defend Trump?

Precedent? We need an actual crime? What was the actual crime on the day Ken Starr was appointed?

He is appointed to head the investigation into possible crimes. Are you seriously arguing that there is no probable cause to investigate?
 
No there isn't. That's why he's been assigned to Russia's involvement in the election. Not investigate Trump.

If one leads to the other then so be it but without an actual crime, there shouldn't be a special counsel. Your blind hatred is showing again. Guilty until proven innocent counselor? Sad!
 
You didn't answer my question.... What crime was present on the day Ken Starr was appointed. I mean we are talking precedent right?

Special counsel doesn't mean anyone is guilty. It means that something is worthy of independent investigation.

WASHINGTON — Michael T. Flynn told President Trump’s transition team weeks before the inauguration that he was under federal investigation for secretly working as a paid lobbyist for Turkey during the campaign, according to two people familiar with the case.

Despite this warning, which came about a month after the Justice Department notified Mr. Flynn of the inquiry, Mr. Trump made Mr. Flynn his national security adviser. The job gave Mr. Flynn access to the president and nearly every secret held by American intelligence agencies.

Mr. Flynn’s disclosure, on Jan. 4, was first made to the transition team’s chief lawyer, Donald F. McGahn II, who is now the White House counsel. That conversation, and another one two days later between Mr. Flynn’s lawyer and transition lawyers, shows that the Trump team knew about the investigation of Mr. Flynn far earlier than has been previously reported.
 
Precisely. Mueller is to investigate Russian involvement in the election. Watching some of the coverage you'd think differently.
 
The mission of the special counsel is to determine if crimes have been committed by the President, his associates, the campaign team, the transition team, the admin, etc.... You don't have to wait for proof of a crime by the President before appointing one.

you also have evidence of at least one crime by Flynn. Taking money from Turkey and not reporting it. This really isn't different from MacDougall.

There is a reason that the Clinton's never got prosecuted for the Whitewater land deal. Literally the only thing they had on Clinton was that he lied to Starr about blowjobs. A crime that happened AFTER Starr was appointed.
 
I'm going to have to watch Hannity tonight, my bet is his head explodes. Should be good TV.
