Our Founding Fathers

[The emperor has no clothes]

We all owe a huge debt of gratitude to them. Today our system of government came thru again. Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein appointed former FBI Director Robert Mueller as Special Counsel for the Russia investigation. He appears to be a professional, experienced, independent person. Democracy in America prevails. Thank you Thomas Jefferson and those who gave us our great form of government.

[Rams]

Had to happen.   Now, it's time to crap or get off the pot. 

Provide proof of the allegations/accusations or STFU.

These investigations don't happen overnight. But I don't think he will drag it out like Kenneth Starr did. I just feel like a fresh spring breeze came thru, and am greatful for our system of government.

[wiggydotcom]

My hope is that someday SOON our same Government investigates the Clinton Foundation!

[Patrick]

I understand some dems are screaming colusion because they think he has at sometime eaten some Beluga caviar.


This has to happen just to put an end to it.  It pretty much as been shown Russia tries to interfere with just about every countries election. But there has not been anything shown between Russia and Trump. It'll be interesting to see what happens.

Uh, you do recognize that as a part of our great form of government the Deputy Attorney General works for the President?

Uh, yes I do. And I also realize the President or his men can fire Mueller at any time. But as I said, it feels like a spring breeze just came thru D.C.

It is great to see your confidence in the system. I have no problem with the DOJ exercising it's authority to name a special counsel. I would like to know exactly what crime is being investigated because up to now, there has been no evidence of any and throughout the last year there has been nothing, no tangible evidence of anything criminal or nefarious.


I would like to have seen a special prosecutor, and I'm sure you would have been elated, for things like "Fast and Furious" where people died, Benghazi, where people died, Clinton Foundation, the pallets of money going to Iran, the meetin' on the tarmac, and, well the list goes on for some time.  But apparently a special prosecutor wasn't in fashion at the time.

If the standard is now to name a special prosecutor based on dubious news reports based on dubious sources, your confidence in the system is a bit misplaced. We now have a justice system that can be politically motivated to pursue rumors and innuendo and used to blackmail and extort political rivals.

Personally, I think it is a tragedy that a special counsel was appointed without any underlying crime.

I am not a lawyer. But as I understand it, this is not an investigation into criminal acts. But an investigation of how Russia infiltrated and influenced our election. That said, I'm sure if any criminal activity is uncovered by of our citizens I would expect charges to be brought. As far as Benghazi, etc. I'll pass on that. But it is fair to say your party members put more than a couple dollars and days into investigations.

[Robert]

I think the fresh breeze came off the city dump. The same land our fore fathers designated to congress.
It has nothing to do with justice and everything to do with politics. I like others hope this goes quickly so we can get on with dismantling Obama's legacy without the Dems having anything to say. I think it will be another nail in the coffin of the failed Democratic party. I also dont understand your glee, since an investigation that 4 men died at the hands of an incompetent maybe malicious secretary of state and nothing came of it I dont really understand the relief of another investigation where nothing has really happened. I guess it makes you happy to spend money on a witch hunt and shuts up all this nonsense then its money well spent.

Just a side note your wrong in thanking the Fore Fathers for this also. They are not the basis for the special prosecutor nor where they immoral enough to think that it would be necessary. They had respect and reverence for the offices they created and would want to wash after hearing whats happening in the US today even though they were less than pure on many points.

Knowing you are against it makes me realize how important it is.

I reject the "your party members" notion.
My view is, has been and will always be the integrity of the system.
I could see, through out the Obama administration, DNC, and Clinton and her campaign, tangible evidence of extraordinary corruption. The standards I hold them to I also hold any administration up to.

And that is the standard for me. Tangible evidence. Credible evidence. BEFORE a public inquisition.
We got nothing on Trump. Just opinions, innuendo, bogus news stories based on bogus sources and a clear and unrelenting bias by the mainstream press.
Why aren't the press "pressing" for the integrity of the sources?

The simple fact is that the press, where we get our information from, has taken sides, and unashamedly,  in this unprecedented political battle. My confidence in Trump comes from the lack of confidence in our national press. I simply do not believe them anymore.

Which is to bad. Because if there is ever credible evidence of a lack of Trump's integrity, tangible evidence of some kind of illegality, no one would ever believe it coming from the national press.

I would have no problem "getting off the Trump train" if there were tangible and credible evidence of some kind of felonious criminality associated with the innuendo and rumors. But it is just innuendo and rumors. Spun to look credible but in the end, not.

The Russian influence in our election. Man, do I feel sorry for this dead horse.
Where was the impact? What was done?
The argument that we need to investigate this is ridiculous. Obviously the influence is not readily apparent if we have to investigate how they did it. Obviously no one can come up with a credible timeline or tangible result that led to a Trump win.

The argument that Trump won by virtue of the Russians uncovering Democrat corruption is self defeating and laughable.
 
I don't see any evidence of the Russians corrupting the Electoral College to secure a Trump victory while having Clinton receive more popular votes nationwide.

The accusations and innuendo fall so short of the reality it would be laughable if not for the beating of the poor dead horse.

[Robert]

Trump already is the best president so I cannot wait to see him win with this also. 

[Oss]

wow, just wow

Lets give it to the ruskies if they had anything at all with uncovering the corruption of the Clinton family, ( of course the foundation has escaped scrutiny by those in their pockets as has the email scandal)
No russians voted near as I can tell, no russians rigged polls, no russians paid money to scumbag violent protesters that would be the DNC after all   cant deny it everyone knows its true

Where are those 20000 emails she lied about then deleted after denying their existence
Why is she not under arrest for that or Bengazi?
Why ?

I believe a deal was made with Obama before inauguration, just like the deal that made Hillary Sec State but Obama and DNC has reneged so I hope all bets are now off

Trump needs to appoint a special prosecutor to go after Hillary and later Obama and watch the cockroaches really scurry

[bagelboy]

Yes they did. They came to my house and held a gun to my head and told me to vote for Trump! This Russia thing is getting old, and is just a complete bunch of BS to keep trump from trying to push his agenda!

[Hook#3287]

I am not as  eloquent a writer as some, especially about political subjects, so wont attempt a detailed response.
 
 But, I made my mind up about Hillary Clinton back at Whitewater.

Nothing the Russians allegedly did influenced me.

I believe the Special Council will come up with nothing,  but the mainstream media will promote another witch hunt shortly there after.

That is what I dont understand Both Clinton and Obama have enough on them to be prosecuted yet they dont. I would like to know whats up with that and why Trump doesn't use this as leverage. I just dont know about Trump sometimes Maybe his ideas of a battle wont allow him to get into the very swamp he is trying to drain.

What I want to see is complete transparency of Mr. Tweet's Financial connections with Russian interests esp the mobsters who could influence him - FOLLOW THE MONEY - that's how we get poop done!
In the end what matters is we have leaders in place who know they must also play by the rules the rest of us play by. No one can be above the law regardless of your last name or the # of zeros following your primary 2 numbers in your bank accounts - offshore holding must be disclose too!

I agree, but apply that same level of vigorous inquiry to Secretary Clinton's Uranium deal...wait for it....WITH THE RUSSIANS. Add to that all the invisible $$ filtered through Canada (charity, hah!) into the Clinton Foundation coffers. No corruption there, no sir, not when a Democrat does it.

You liberals slay me with the blind double standards.  I take that back, liberals have NO standards.

The Russians along with a number of other countries have been trying to influence our elections and others elections for a long time, I'm not sure why anyone is surprised by this.  We as a country have been doing it just as long.

CNN Host Becomes Irate at Former Navy SEAL for Dismissing Trump-Russia Reports CNN host Kate Bolduan became irate at former Navy SEAL and Donald Trump supporter Carl Higbie on Tuesday after he dismissed reports that alleged the president shared classified information with Russian diplomats in the Oval Office last week.

http://freebeacon.com/national-security/cnn-host-becomes-irate-former-navy-seal-dismissing-trump-russia-reports/

Basically, Carl Higbie nails them. Why would you value actual named sources over those unwilling to come on record and who, just by their very actions, have an ax to grind? Never mind, breaking the law by leaking stuff to the press to begin with.

WOW common sense confronts bs and the fail is priceless
 

Holocaust Survivors Send Letter to Cuomo to Stop Linda Sarsour From Speaking at Public University

http://freebeacon.com/culture/holocaust-survivors-send-letter-to-cuomo-to-stop-linda-sarsour-from-speaking-at-public-university/


What Linda Sarsour advocates for—boycotts against Jewish businesses in Israel and random acts of violence against the innocent—are no different than the things that we personally experienced. This is a frightening reality that we hoped we would never see again. But what makes matters worse is to again see good people and respected institutions responding with indifference… Nothing good can come of Ms. Sarsour telling young people, with CUNY’s imprimatur, that violence against the innocent for any reason at all is acceptable or courageous.

This will leave you shaking your head as he lays out all the criminal acts of Hillary Clinton and yet will not prosecute all this by his own admission.

[/quote]

Yes. I am saying exactly that. Pretty much anyway. Every country in the world has some impact on our Presidential elections in some manner. Their press printing editorials, some bending facts to make one candidate look good, or bad. Former President of Mexico weighed in against Trump. Britain politicians weighed in against Trump. Shoot, Mexican politicians weighed in against Trump. I'm sure the Russians had similar efforts.

So what? Their opinions and positions have value in the debate.

But there is no evidence at all of the Russians manipulating the popular vote at the State level or national vote at the Electoral College level. That just didn't happen.

[RDAbull]

Simple question:
Why is the left bank so interested in Russian influence of the election but has no interest in the actual information about the corruption in the democratic party that was released? 
If that was Russian influence, Thank You Comrades.
