    The just-completed Mueller Report recommends no new indictments. Under the circumstances that seems rather strange, and Donald Trump, Jr. and Jared Kushner must be relieved. The following emails were exchanged in June 2016.

    Good morning, Emin just called and asked me to contact you with something very interesting.

    The Crown prosecutor of Russia met with his father Aras this morning and in their meeting offered to provide the Trump campaign with some official documents and information that would incriminate Hillary and her dealings with Russia and would be very useful to your father.

    This is obviously very high level and sensitive information but is part of Russia and its government's support for Mr. Trump - helped along by Aras and Emin.

    What do you think is the best way to handle this information and would you be able to speak to Emin about it directly?

    Best

    Thanks Rob I appreciate that. I am on the road at the moment but perhaps I just speak to Emin first. Seems we have some time and if it's what you say I love it especially later in the summer. Could we do a call first thing next week when I am back?

    Best,
    Don

    On June 9, 2016, Donald Trump, Jr., Jared Kushner, and Trump's campaign manager, Paul Manafort, met with four Russian operatives representing the Russian government at Trump's home, Trump Tower, to obtain damaging information on the Clinton campaign.

    This is a clear example of collaboration between the Trump campaign and the Russian government.

    President Trump has gone to extraordinary lengths to conceal details of his conversations with Russian President Vladimir Putin, including on at least one occasion taking possession of the notes of his own interpreter and instructing the linguist not to discuss what had transpired with other administration officials.

    At Helsinki, Trump spent two hours alone with Putin, only translators were allowed. Many suspect Trump is being extorted by Putin, which would explain a lot. Only Putin knows what was said during those two hours. What is Trump hiding?

    You showed weakness again. You failed to deal with the issues contained in the post you responded to. Instead, you made a personal attack on me while falsely assuming who my political allies are. Why do Trump's fans always assume that criticism of Trump always comes from the left?

    I am a conservative and the state of California backs me up on that. In CA, to vote, we have to declare our political affiliation. In my case, it is Republican.

    Special Counsel Robert Mueller ended his probe without indicting one of its most politically sensitive subjects: Donald Trump Jr.

    A key episode in Mueller’s 22-month probe into Russian election meddling was a secret meeting that the president’s eldest son took at Trump Tower in Manhattan in 2016 with a Russian lawyer connected to the Kremlin on the promise of being given dirt on Democrat Hillary Clinton.


    Now, one of the inquiry’s most intriguing unanswered questions is why Trump Jr. remained largely untouched by Mueller despite his participation in the meeting and questions about whether he tried to cover it up.

    Also left unscathed was Jared Kushner, the president’s son-in-law and senior adviser. He, too, was at the Trump Tower meeting and had other contacts, including a conversation with the Russian ambassador during the presidential transition about setting up a secret communications channel through the Russian embassy.

    Mueller has delivered his final report to Attorney General William Barr, who’s deciding how much of the findings to release to Congress and the public and said he may be able to outline its “principal conclusions” as soon as this weekend. It’s not clear, however, whether the report or Barr’s summaries will deal directly with President Donald Trump or members of his family.

    There’s been no public indication that Mueller’s team interviewed Trump Jr. Legal experts said that it’s common for prosecutors to avoid questioning potential targets for indictments. But questions will be raised about Mueller’s approach if it turns out that he neither questioned the president’s relatives nor made them a target of his investigation.

    Unbelievable. We have one thread from the left asking whether republicans will accept the Mueller investigation and this one saying the left is not going to accept the investigation. The democrats are pathetic. I realize you are going to claim you are not a democrat. Don't waste your time.

    When is the Statute of Limitations up? He likely has dirt on everyone.

    On MSNBC, just two weeks ago, Brennan foresaw a raft of indictments coming out of the heart of Dirty Bob Mueller’s Witch Hunt. Brennan was a key participant in the peddling of alleged Trump campaign collusion with Russia lie. Brennan is a rabid left-wing partisan. Brennan was salivating over the prospect of the indictments he made up in his mind.

    No indictments were recommended by the massively unprecedented 2 year long multi million dollar investigation against any of the people you listed or indeed anyone else.

    There is something very dark about John Brennan and his behavior. I think the man is so dirty he is doing everything possible to keep away from any scrutiny. He is proven to have blatantly lied under oath to Congress, and nothing.

    This man needs to face some serious questions and jail time for his lies and the role he played in this treasonous scam.

    This is Barr's comments on obstruction of justice:
    "The Special Counsel's decision to describe the facts of his obstruction investigation without reaching any legal conclusions leaves it to the Attorney General to determine whether the conduct described in the report constitutes a crime. Over the course of the investigation, the Special Counsel's office engaged in discussions with certain Department officials regarding many of the legal and factual matters at issue in the Special Counsel's obstruction investigation. After reviewing the Special Counsel's final report on these issues; consulting with Department officials, including the Office of Legal Counsel; and applying the principles of federal prosecution that guide our charging decisions, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and I have concluded that the evidence developed during the Special Counsel's investigation is not sufficient to establish that the President committed an obstruction-of-justice offense. Our determination was made without regard to, and is not based on, the constitutional considerations that surround the indictment and criminal prosecution of a sitting president."

    We need to get to the bottom of ALL OF IT.

    Crazed Fake News Media Gleefully Predicted That The Family Would Leave The White House in HANDCUFFS.

    no one in the media ever predicted that, I do predict Trump will resign so his VP can pardon him after he loses the election in 2020 though, I also predict Trump will pardon his family.... course if his family is innocent he would not do that, so time will tell

    What needs to happen now, is that everyone from the Obama DoJ who is involved in breaking the laws and creating this Russian collusion scam, needs to be prosecuted. Strzock, Page, Comey, Lynch, Rosentein, McCabe, and on and on.

    But what about all the people who lied to promote and create this scam? Shall we not prosecute them? If not, why not?

    My hope is something is done to preserve the evidence, as there is every reason to believe these players would be destroying it as fast a possible.

    Now that the failed witch hunt is over, it frees up the media for way more important things, like AOC and hater Omar quotes...
