Mueller subpoenas Trump Organization documents in Russia probe

[libertybele]

Doesn't the AG have the authority to shut this investigation down??  Mueller is now subpoenaing the Trump organization after the GOP investigation announced that they have found no collusion!  This is going beyond ridiculous and points to never ending until they are able to pin anything even remotely regardless of how insignificant on Trump colluding with Russia.

Mueller subpoenas Trump Organization documents in Russia probe

Special counsel Robert Mueller has subpoenaed the Trump Organization for business documents, a source familiar with the matter told CNN on Thursday.
The New York Times, which first reported the development, said the subpoena included documents related to Russia. The reports mark the first publicly known time that Mueller has demanded documents related to President Donald Trump's businesses.
The subpoena is a sign that the Mueller investigation continues to pick up steam, even as Trump decries remaining questions about potential coordination between his associates and Russia and denies any wrongdoing. Trump has said he would view any investigation of his or his family's personal finances that didn't involve Russia as a "violation" by Mueller that crosses a red line.
CNN reported in January that the company had voluntarily provided documents on a range of events, conversations and meetings from Trump's real estate business to Mueller and congressional investigators, according to three people familiar with the matter.......

Rush did a great riff on this today. Democrats and NTs are pinning everything on Mueller for him to bring Trump et al down, anyway he can, period.

We are witnessing slow motion lawlessness while Sessions buries his head in the sand. I’ve lost all respect for Sessions. He is a useless appendage that needs to be amputated.

This will come to a head soon. Trump won’t tolerate this much longer.

I question why Trump han't fired Sessions by now?  Yes, he's recused himself from the Russian investigation, but certainly he can see the b.s. going on within his own department!  It is up to him to clean house. 

There has to be a reason why Trump refuses to fire him.  IF he and Sessions had some plan to let Mueller hang himself, that time has come and gone.  They have plenty of information on Mueller to send him packing and put him and his cronies (including Clinton) behind bars.  Yet nothing is done.  Why?

To bring this all to a head, President Trump should tell everybody.....

"Screw this!   Mueller..., you're fired!   I'm going to let the voters decide if they want our country to become Venezuela-type shithole on a larger scale...OR keep on the path to keeping American great and FIRST!

I will fight to the bitter end for the American People who support and vote for the America we both want.  I am not a quitter.

But you're starting to piss me off, now.   And believe me, you don't want to do that.   [crowd laughs]

And BTW...., you're not only a FAKE NEWS media, but a far-left Socialist one.  Covering for the Clinton Foundation.

Consider a low stress job like flipping burgers.   But hurry...seems there's an app for that!"

He doesn’t fire him because it’s not politically possible to do so. Sadly, he would lose to much support amongst Republicans in the House and Senate. He can’t afford to lose that support as it would paralyze his entire agenda. It’s that simple.

Breaking: I just heard that Mueller is issuing a subpoena for the birth certificate of all of Trump's family currently living and for one generation deceased. Apparently he is looking for any connection to a Russian relative living or dead. This would prove that Trump has ties to Russia. Next on Mueller's agenda is to have all Trump's take a DNA test to see whatever he can find out from that.

Mueller has already directed that all Trump related trash is filtered by his staff first before disposal. And he is trying to come up with a way to get hair, blood, stool, and semen/pap samples from all of them.

Mueller has yelled to his staff with a red face and gritted teeth, 'NO! I will never let this go, dammit! Not ever, ever, ever, ever! Everyone is guilty of something, and whatever it is, I WILL FIND IT!!'

For the most part I agree with you, but Trump also needs to say "Screw this ... Sessions, you are fired"!!  His AG should have been monitoring what was going on in his own department; unless his AG is part of the problem, which he is!

I've heard that before.  I declare b.s.  If Trump firing Sessions means we start to see some swamp draining, and Bammy and Clinton finally held responsible, and this witch hunt finally over, then I would think that he wouldn't lose the support among the Republicans that truly are for their party and country.  The Limpy Grahams, the Mitch the Turtle McConnells and the Lyin' Ryans are just gong to have to deal with it!

The people who would be against Trump if he fired Sessions are by definition already against him now. That is specifically why they support Sessions, because they want to undermine Trump as much as possible.

It is like ripping off a band-aid. The longer you wait and hesitate, the more it is going to hurt when you finally do it. Trump should have learned that lesson with Comey, who he should have fired on his first day in office.

Exactly.  Which gets back to my very first impression when Trump appointed Sessions in the first place.  Why? That has been one of Trump's biggest mistakes; appointing Sessions.  Funny, how the Senate at first balked at his nomination ... and then they found out he could be bought.

Everyone is guilty of something...

Probably. If you could know every law then you'd likely see yourself as a violator of some.

Sessions fooled Trump and a lot of people including the Deep State. Who knew that he was a supporter of the establishment and the Deep State. That was a surprise. And he gave no indication whatsoever of that when he was interviewing for the position. Trump had no idea that he was going to 'recuse' himself from his job immediately after he was hired. That's ridiculous. If he knew that he was unable to do the job, for whatever reason, he should have told Trump where he stood. So, he either lied directly to Trump or he lied by omission to get the job.

But yes, as you said the Deep State hated him because he fooled them too, along with everyone else. Now that they know who he really is, that is a Holder/Lynch type AG, suddenly they are willing to burn the house down to save him.

It was inevitable the investigation would eventually turn to business dealings.  Trump has his associations with Kushner, Sater, and Nader, plus his own big mouth to thank for that.


Even so, Mr. Trump said his efforts put him in contact with powerful people there. “I called it my weekend in Moscow,” Mr. Trump said of his 2013 trip to Moscow during a September 2015 interview on “The Hugh Hewitt Show.” He added: “I was with the top-level people, both oligarchs and generals, and top of the government people. I can’t go further than that, but I will tell you that I met the top people, and the relationship was extraordinary.”

It’s probably BS, but this is the kind of stuff - like saying you met Putin - that invites scrutiny.

So ... we've gone from Trump himself colluding with the Russians to his organization dealing with the Russians.  Interesting.  We know that this investigation that has been going on for well over a year has shown absolutely no collusion between Trump and the Russians and that evidence has been uncovered that shows that the Clinton and DEMS colluded with the Russians.  Evidence also shows that the Clinton business, 'The Clinton Foundation' colluded with Russia.  My hunch is that this investigation will continue on well into the mid-term elections and again, nothing will be found involving Trump and his organization.  It seems obvious to me that this continuing investigation into Trump and now his organization is merely deflecting the blame from the DEMS and primarily the Clintons as well as the Obama administration.  It allows them more time to bury evidence, it allows the more time to maneuver away from ever accepting any liability or responsibility. 

It sickens me that our attorney general Jeff Sessions allows this to continue and it sickens me even more that our President stands by and lets his horse and pony show continue.

That's one sceanario ... or Sessions was promised a position by Trump during the campaign for supporting him.  If you recall he was backing Cruz then suddenly switched his support.  I think Sessions has been bought and paid for several times.  Now the deep state owns him.

Make my day Jeff, tell the FBI clown you just fired to stop by this one's office and pick him up on your way out the door.
