https://www.yahoo.com/news/former-u-...185812955.html Former U.S. Attorney Tells Congress Trump Committed ‘Multiple Crimes’ Politics Former U.S. Attorney Tells Congress Trump Committed ‘Multiple Crimes’ The Daily Beast By Barbara McQuade,The Daily Beast Mon, Jun 10 2:58 PM EDT Reactions Reblog on Tumblr Share Tweet Email Andrew Harnik/AP Statement as prepared for testimony before the House Judiciary Committee. Chairman Nadler, Ranking Member Collins, and distinguished members of the Committee: Thank you for inviting me to speak with you today about lessons from the Mueller Report regarding obstruction of justice. Overview of Testimony The most significant finding in the Special Counsel’s Report is that Russia interfered with our election in “sweeping and systematic fashion.” Through that lens, I will share 2 observations about the report— What happened and why it matters. First, the conduct described in the report constitutes multiple crimes of obstruction of justice, supported by evidence of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. If anyone other than a sitting president had committed this conduct, I am confident that he would be charged with crimes. One thousand former federal prosecutors signed a letter agreeing that the president committed crimes. Second, why it matters. The obstruction described in the report created a risk to our national security because it was designed to prevent investigators from learning all of the facts about an attack on our country by a hostile foreign adversary. hit the link to read more.............................

Personally, if the House wants to impeach him, I think they should. They should call Mueller to testify about the report and allow the evidence to be viewed cross-examined. And if in the end, the burden of proof is met, the Senate should execute it's duties aside from political partisanship. But I stand by the fact that until he is found guilty by the Senate, our system of justice demands that everyone acknowledge that Trump has not been found guilty (regardless if 10,000 prosecutors swore on a stack of 10,000 Bibles and said it was enough), and is therefore innocent - not just "not charged". |

As far as I know, HC has never been regarded as anything but innocent from the media, the fbi - even the ones tasked to investigate her, and the 48.2% of the electorate that elected her. Perhaps, the other 46.1% found enough doubt to chant lock her up because they didn't trust the political bureaucracies that simply chase the political winds - dems investigate reps and reps investigate dems while they both parties do the same damn thing, or because the sight of an ex-president meeting on the tarmac with a leading prosecutor gave the image of a tainted investigation. But is there anyone who thinks that the Mueller probe didn't look under every rock, turn over every possible lead with the express intent to prove that Trump was first involved with the Russians and barring being able to prove that that they would prove that he committed obstruction. The team put together was as motivated as any to get every angle, and they had every dollar they wanted, they had access to crazy high level activity, they had every surveillance trick and trap available to them, and they still put together a very refutable 10 points of possible obstruction. So for the TL;DR crowd, HC investigations were first political (thus questionable) and secondly rushed and clearly biased FBI investigators with DOJ friendly actors. Trump investigations on the other hand were first highly motivated well funded long term FBI / DOJ employees and now comes the political hack jobs. |

I see your argument and I reverse it , Hillary was always assumed to be guilty and trump has been proven to be guilty just not allowed to be prosecuted ,it's no hack job.Nothing even close to what the republicans did to do to Hillary.

But what does it prosper the American people? Nothing. The bottomline in all of this is that our politicians have gotten so corrupt as to make sport over investigating each other and working up there half of the population to fevered pitch of us against "evil" them. Trump is the latest outgrowth of this but he isnt alone by any means If we want the US to prosper in the future, we all have to find a way to heal the political duvide in this country. I dont know how that is done... Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk |
