You could be forgiven for having a difficult time following all the players in the continuing saga that has engulfed Congressional committees, the president, the FBI, the NSA, Russia, the Clintons, former FBI Director Comey, WikiLeaks, the media, and who know how many others. The old baseball adage fits: “You can’t tell the players without a scorecard.”
Continuing the baseball metaphor, part of the problem is that it’s not entirely clear who is on whose team. Or for that matter, it’s not clear how many teams there are.
When one sits down to write a piece about this turmoil, one question that comes to mind is how much do potential readers already know, and how much time should be spent rehearsing information in an attempt to help clarify things rather than to obfuscate — something our politicians do well enough anyway.
So when we begin a piece with the assertion that Special Counsel Mueller might be accused of doing the very thing former FBI Director Comey accused President Trump of doing, do your eyes just glaze over, or is this all crystal clear to you?
We’ll try to straighten this out and clarify things for you, as well as hopefully explaining why this is important on page two.
Denise-
The President and the Candidate brought all these troubles on himself. Even his own party’s control of Congress couldn’t shield him from the legal machinery which was designed to protect the nation and the Constitution from this kind of mischief.
Kevin-
Party On Bro!!
Have a great summer!!
Scott-
What is needed is
Leadership
Integrity
Honor
Honesty
Wisdom
Courage
These are the foundations of progress. These are the things that people follow. Sadly, these things are not to be found in the Oval Office these days.
Christopher Shocklee what lies? also do you know there is a difference between colluding with RUSSIA and doing business with a RUSSIAN?
Fire Mueller!
John Bush-
Ok.
“The Boy Scouts of America called me to tell me that my speech was the greatest speech ever at a Jamboree” (Immediately denied by the Boy Scouts of America), among hundreds of others.
Colluding with Russia to undermine a US election is illegal, akin to treason.
Doing business with Russia is legal, like importing vodka or exporting iPhones.
John- Like you, I am just an observer of events which are beyond my control. We are witnesses to history. What will happen will happen. If Trump should ever find himself on the side of America, then I am on his side. Until then, I will just remain on America’s side.
In the meantime, since Trump is being so put upon being forced to spend some time in the “Dump” White House, maybe, since it is so beneath his standards, “The People’s House” should be converted into a Smithsonian museum and Trump can return to the spendor of Trump Tower.
Also, why was there no elaborate signing ceremony for the historic Russian, Iranian and North Korean Sanctions Bill, which was passed with near unanimous votes in the House of Representatives and the Senate?
I would have liked to see our President proudly place his impressive signature on this important legislation, I believe the first congressional legislation to be signed by President Trump.
He needs to go!! Today!
They aren’t investigating a crime..Theyre looking for a crime to investigate!
