    But rule of law is guaranteed and criminal investigations are part of that rule no matter what you choose to call them. Screw trump and his lying cheating crooked mob. See how that works?

    No Person; nor (sic) shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law,

    A Grand Jury cannot compel testimony from a suspect in a criminal case.

    Mueller and the never trumpers don't follow the rule of the law. Mueller is a Nazi and his never trumpers at the FBI and DOJ are destroying the country.

    Agreed! If you haven't seen this video already, it will give insights to what the Mueller strategy actually is. The info here can also save you in your own life. Valuable info here from defense lawyers & police too.

    That's why he will have to take the fifth.......think it through unless you want him to be above the rule of law and the constitution he swore an oath to?

    Cheers.

    Or they did, and Muller is trying to give him another chance.

    So, the predicate on the investigation was a lie? Or a red-herring to be able to investigate other things that should have been independently investigated anyway?

    Neither, your response is a non sequitur strawman

    You seem to love that word alot, despite using it incorrectly. Let me dumb it down: Comey in early 2017 opened up(or rather confirmed) the so-called investigation into Russian meddling in the US elections. That was/is the basis for everything that has transpired, confirmed in the authorization memos to Robert Mueller.

    It's not a non-sequitur, it is a serious question. We seem to have moved so far away from Russian meddling, and more into the Trump Organization. That to me, is an improper use of law enforcement tools. It's a form of double jeopardy in the sense that obviously there wasn't anything there for Russian meddling, but they couldn't stop the investigation there. Oh no, they had to find something which they did thanks to Michael Cohen.

    We know Trump is guilty of every crime in the book, all anyone needs to do is watch Maddow, Mika and Joe, Matthews, or anyone else on CNN or MSNBC, so why do they need to talk to Trump when the liberal media has all the evidence Mueller needs?

    In addition to the voices in your head the obvious answer is Trump.

    There is no evidence to show that your post was done by a rational objective thinking person.

    Just got through listening to the podcast "Bag Man", about the downfall of Vice President Spiro Agnew.

    The tightening noose that prosecutors used to eventually snare him, and force his resignation, is eerily similar to what we see going on in the Trump Whitehouse today. It took more than a year to thoroughly investigate Agnew, so Mueller is in good company there. Brick by brick they built their case until there was nowhere else he could turn.

    Interestingly, Agnew, like Trump, attempted to use the court of public opinion in his favor. Painting the media of the day as the bad guy. None of it matters in the long run. He plead guilty to Tax Evasion on the same day he resigned from office, and never had to answer for the money laundering and bribery charges that prosecutors were prepared to file.

    I wonder if Trump is prescient enough to know, and understand, this chapter in American history?

    My bet is that he isn't, and he doesn't.

    I think that's a safe bet.

    The irony is that what brought Agnew down was talking cash from local developers. Which isn't that much removed from the sort of business practicers that Cohen engaged in on Trump's behalf.

    What a bunch of schmucks!

    Dirty Bob Mueller has known for a very long time that he has no case against Trump, if he was planning on trying a case he wouldn't be sentencing all the folks he pressed into guilty pleas, that would wait until after the trial. But there will be no trial, Dirty Bob is building a political report, not a case. And even that report won't be much as NPR tries to warn the rabid Trump Haters:

    Philip Ewing of NPR posted a news story this morning, "The Russia Investigations: An Unfinished Case Looks Weaker Than Ever."

    NPR is warning the rabid anti-Trumpers that the end of President Trump is not near.

    Hours later, NPR updated the post, changing the headline to "The Russia Investigations: A Case Still Unproven" and slapping a warning on it, "Editor's Note: This story has been edited to make it clear that it is analysis, and that the allegations of the Trump campaign conspiring with the Russians remain unproven."

    Finally sensible doubts penetrate their thick skulls.

    Democrats and their collaborators on the never-Trump right have peddled all sorts of rumors and lies to discredit him.

    They failed so much so that they rolled out Stormy Daniels only to have that blow up like an old used up volcano.

    Then Creepy Porn Lawyer showed up and the clusterfark was nearly complete.

    Their hate consumes them, but feeds him. He grew from a longshot to president thanks to the constant media harangues against him. There is no such thing as bad publicity.

    In fact, bad publicity enabled him to survive the Billy Bush tape because the media wasted most of its credibility that spring and summer trying to turn gaffes into scandals.

    I mean, these geniuses tried to turn a taco bowl tweet into racism.

    [​IMG]

    We elected Donald Trump as president, the guy he replaced had a major legal problem because he had illegally wiretapped Trump Tower.

    And so Obama and his henchmen unleashed the Russian Dossier, which they hoped would trigger a special counsel who would
    1. cover their tracks, and
    2. bring President Trump down.​

    The media was complicit in this coup de deep state.

    Nearly two years later, Dirty Bob Mueller has nothing to show for his efforts except a few non-related convictions. He's still fishing, but without the proof of Russiagate he will never land Moby Donald.

    Open-ended soviet style purges of political opponents are not exercises in the rule of law

    "Taking the fifth" is the rule of law.
