The Irrational, Unshakable Faith of the Collusion Conspiracists

[TreeFrogTrader]

I just wanted to comment that links are very important to maintain credibility. We all need to be careful to post links whenever we can because the internet has become a cesspool of unfounded charges and unsupportable allegations. Of course there are some thing that are so well known that no link is needed.

No.

If a person alleges that something is or is not true of a document, they have an obligation to know what is in it before challenging another and not play the "you go off and do my research for me" game.

As I said. I have the letter to Mueller right in front of me.

Startofartfast called me a liar and when challenged did not want to pursue it further because he knows I am telling the truth.

No one doubts that Mueller is looking into the Trump side of Russian connections.

The dem side? Not so much. And even if he is doing it to some extent it would be with the help of his pro-Hillary staff. Comey 2.0.

Mueller is like the New York Times to right wing people. You hate it until it implicates a democrat. You guys had zero problem with credibility when Podesta’s brother became implicated.

I suspect you don’t like mueller because you’re afraid of what he will uncover and that is the basis of your constant criticism, fear.

Still another side are Trump's financial dealings in regard to Russian money laundering. He may not have done anything illegal under U.S. law in regard to laundering, but Oh Boy!, those tax returns!, that we've never seen. Are they sitting on a desk in the FBI somewhere?

We ourselves may be mushrooms, kept in the dark and fed shit. But no tax returns, and all those foreign agents and others with ties to Russia in the campaign and administration, and Trumps dependence on Russian financing, you'd have to be deaf dumb and blind to think there is nothing there. Trump is like the three-year-old covered in crumbs that denies having got into the cookie jar.

So in other words, a witch hunt.

I remember when liberals hated Comey; then, loved Comey. Their opinions changed based only on who Comey's target was. The fact is that Comey has always been incompetent.

In my case, your comments could not be further from the truth. It is true that there may have been elation about seeing the uncovering of some dem corruption but at no point did I not question Mueller's credibility. I said that the problems may have surfaced but Mueller will do everything within his power to look the other way, just as Comey did. Some things he will not be able to avoid looking at- just as was true with Comey- but that does not mean that he will run with them.

Mueller did not intend to look at Podests but a little surprise popped up along the way. Mueller put the squeeze on Mannafort very hard as we know so Mannafort started revealing some of his connections. It turned out that he was also working for the Podesta group and knew about their Shiite so Mueller got stuck with having to look at some dem dirt. Just as Comey got stuck a few times having to look at Hillary even though it was something that he just wanted to go away. Now Mueller is in somewhat of bind because even though he does not want to run with it, the house committee is still pursuing it bigtime which creates a spotlight on Mueller's not doing anything with it.

More to come.

Sure, bro. Then why doesn't someone from DOJ tell Mueller to also look into the "dem side?" You think maybe they misplaced their copy of the letter you have "right in front of you?"

After all this is the crowd that believes in Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy, Global Warming and that if you dress a man funny he is legally a woman.

FYI, the personal attacks started on the second post, by one of the the resident liberals; and, has continued on throughout the thread. Nice try though.

It's the house oversight committee that is telling the DOJ that Mueller is authorized to look at the dem side because Mueller's authorization letter says that he is authorized to pursue any related or other crimes that arise during the investigation of the Trump stuff and that definitely includes dem crimes or connections with the ruskies.

And as I said, I have the letter right in front of me or did before I closed that window and can retrieve it quite shortly.

Then explain to me why Trump's DOJ is not directing Mueller to investigate the "dem side?" I'm guessing it's an egg-on-face aversion.

Mueller is in the unenviable position of cleaning up whatever Russians did in our election last year. Because of it has to do with politics it will be highly politicized. People are going to throw out all kinds of allegations against him. A perfect example of this is when he removed a team member for engaging in some anti Trump text messages. He did exactly the right thing but it is being used against him.

Mueller and his team are doing a good job. They are moving quickly and methodically upwards. We all benefit from that.

Put simply, the dogs may bark but the caravan moves on.
