It's (Still) Mueller Time!
The Russiagate scandal, along with Trump's other myriad scandals, is not going away anytime soon. And after Mueller testified to Congress, he made it clear that Trump was NOT exonerated, particularly for the high crime of obstruction of justice, though under current Justice Deparment rules a sitting president cannot be indicted. Thus, Congress needs to impeach him. And Nancy Pelosi really needs to stop dithering about it and get the ball rolling yesterday.

The Mueller Report Is Out--And Even The Redacted Version Is A Lot More Damning Than Trump Wants You To Believe
Well, the much anticipated Mueller Report is out now, and even the redacted version is a LOT more damning than Trump or Barr want anyone to believe. Seriously. While it is ostensibly inconclusive about Trump's personal participation in the Russian hacking and interference, the three most important words in the entire 400+ page report are "does NOT exonerate", particularly in relation to the high crime of obstruction of justice. And even the inconclusiveness was largely due 1) important evidence apparently being deleted/destroyed by some of the major players in the Russiagate scandal, and 2) apparent duress, however subtle, to one degree or another, from the Justice Department under Trump.
I mean, this is the very same Donald Trump who unceremoniously fired FBI Director James Comey, then forced Attorney General Jeff Sessions to resign, and even tried to fire Robert Mueller himself--all because he wanted the ever-growing Russiagate investigation to just go away already. Ipse dixit--he himself said it, after all. If that is not a textbook example of obstruction of justice, and one that would make even Tricky Dick Nixon himself blush, in fact, I really don't know what is anymore.
And that is just the redacted version! In other words, Trump is NOT out of the woods yet, if ever. His fate now rests in the hands of Congress, as well as the Southern District of New York, who is now led by Attorney General Letitia James. So Donald, if I were you, I would do us all a YUUUGE favor and RESIGN, yesterday. Then pray that you don't ultimately end up behind bars, because I doubt they would take very kindly to the likes of you in the big house.

We Wish You A Mueller Christmas, And Impeachment Next Year
As we noted in our previous post, the walls are now closing in on the Donald as we speak. Impeachment and/or indictment are both more likely now than ever before. There is the infamous Trump-Russia scandal, of course, along with too many other scandals to count, but did you ever think that the porn star hush money scandal (which turned out to be an illegal campaign finance violation, who knew?) would be the one that would most likely finally bring him down? Even if that itself is somehow not enough, it seems to have been the wedge that finally got his former lawyer and fixer Michael Cohen to flip on him and sing like a canary--and he apparently has a LOT more dirty laundry on him that will soon be aired, most likely having to do with the Russiagate scandal.
And to make matters even worse for Trump, he doesn't just have Mueller to fear either. He actually has even more to fear from Letitia James, the new Attorney General of New York State. And he will not be able to pardon anyone for state-level crimes.
No wonder Trump is freaking out so much right now. He knows his days are numbered. One domino after another is falling as we speak, and it is only a matter of time before he himself is next.
Get your popcorn, this will get very interesting. Donald, may you live in very interesting times indeed!

It's Mueller Time!
The Mueller investigation of the Trump Crime Family is now in its endgame, and it isn't looking good at all for the Donald or any of his cronies. Michael Cohen and Paul Manafort, along with several others, are now officially convicted (or very soon to be convicted) felons at this point, and it looks like both the Teflon Don (and probably Don Jr.) will soon be next.
Ruh roh. (Cue the Dragnet music, Maestro!)

There is no longer any reasonable doubt at this point about collusion between the Trump campaign and the Putin regime of Russia, all technicalities aside. Now it's more like, "what did they know and when did they know it" for each of these individuals involved, and they have already been caught in several lies in that regard. Both Cohen and Manafort, along with Flynn and others, are apparently singing like canaries and throwing Trump and Jr. under the bus to save their own skins. It's only a matter of time now.
Let's see: bribery, money laundering, racketeering/RICO, conspiracy to commit election fraud, and conspiracy to defraud the United States are all at least on the table now as charges related to the Trump-Russia collusion scandal. And even if somehow none of these charges end up sticking for whatever reason, there is always perjury, obstruction of justice, and witness tampering as well, all of which are not only impeachable offenses, but also punishable by prison as well. (All of which are easily proven, by the way, and in this case are so glaringly obvious now.) And you can probably also throw tax fraud and tax evasion in there for at least some of the members of the Trump Crime Family as well.

The jig is basically up now, Donald. And Pence will most likely be implicated as well, if he hasn't been already. At the very least, they can likely get Pence for misprision of felony, if not conspiracy to obstruct justice (and aiding and abetting) in the firing of James Comey. So Trump would be wise to resign right now so Pence can pardon him, but even that would only buy the administration a little more time before they are all "Out Like Flynn" if not behind bars for a very long time. Hope you like orange, Donald, because for once your clothing and skin will actually match!
It's beginning to look a lot like TREASON, everywhere Trump goes....
