Step by step, inch by inch...

Donald Trump Comes Unglued Amid Growing Pressure From Bob Mueller
When the Senate Judiciary Committee convened last month to approve a bill to protect Robert Mueller, a number of Republicans opposed to the proposal clung to a wild claim: They said they felt bound by the late Justice Antonin Scalia’s dissenting opinion in a case that upheld a law, since lapsed..

DOJ Responds To Trump's Order
The Department of Justice (DOJ) has asked its inspector general to look into whether the FBI surveilled President Trump's campaign for "inappropriate purposes."
“If anyone did infiltrate or surveil participants in a presidential campaign for inappropriate purposes, we need to know about it and take appropriate action," Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein said in a statement.

Disappearing Government Records?  What?
Last week, several news outlets obtained financial records showing that Michael Cohen, President Trump’s personal attorney, had used a shell company to receive payments from various firms with business before the Trump Administration. In the days since, there has been much speculation about who leaked the confidential documents, and the Treasury Department’s inspector general has launched a probe to find the source. That source, a law-enforcement official, is speaking publicly for the first time, to The New Yorker, to explain the motivation: the official had grown alarmed after being unable to find two important reports on Cohen’s financial activity in a government database. The official, worried that the information was being withheld from law enforcement, released the remaining documents.


Imagine yourself in as much legal hot water as Trump. now imagine that your team of strategists is Rudy Giuliani, Steve Doocy and Sean Hannity. at this point you should also be imagining what it will be like to spend the rest of your life in prison. - Jeff Tiedrich

Trump Puts China Tariffs Put On Hold
President Trump on Monday said that barriers to trade with China will "come down," adding that Beijing will buy agricultural products from American farmers as a result of trade talks.

Head in tear stained hands - Another school shooting

At least 9 dead in Santa Fe High School; shooter had multiple guns, bombs
At least 9 people died Friday morning in gunfire at Santa Fe High School, law enforcement officials confirmed, while area hospitals reported at least a dozen others were injured.
Police arrested a student suspect and detained a second person, Santa Fe school officials confirmed.

Trump calls immigrants names again

Trump Calls Some Unauthorized Immigrants ‘Animals’ in Rant
President Trump lashed out at undocumented immigrants during a White House meeting on Wednesday, warning in front of news cameras that dangerous people were clamoring to breach the country’s borders and branding such people “animals.”

Canada Calls For Probe Into Violence Against Palestinians
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is calling for a probe into the violence on Israel's border with the Gaza Strip after a Canadian doctor was wounded while tending to injured Palestinian protesters.
"Canada deplores and is gravely concerned by the violence in the Gaza Strip that has led to a tragic loss of life and injured countless people. We are appalled that Dr. Tarek Loubani, a Canadian citizen, is among the wounded — along with so many unarmed people, including civilians, members of the media, first responders, and children," Trudeau said in a statement on Wednesday

What’s the traditional gift for a one year “witch hunt” anniversary? Is it paper like a one year wedding anniversary? So maybe some indictments? Or can Mueller skip right to giving Trump iron shackles?- OhNoSheTwint


Giuliani: Mueller Can't Indict! Mueller Can't Indict!
Special counsel Robert Mueller's team has informed President Donald Trump's attorneys that they have concluded that they cannot indict a sitting president, according to the President's lawyer.
"All they get to do is write a report," Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani told CNN. "They can't indict. At least they acknowledged that to us after some battling, they acknowledged that to us."
