DOJ announces special counsel for Trump-related Mar-a-Lago and January 6 criminal investigations

And why not before the mid-terms?

 

And now it will take 2 years and millions of dollars wasted for the special counsel to come back with no charges. Democrat politicians???

 

Trump will not be reelected.

 

Well the timing can be incidental.

 

The dumb as a rock defense. ALL her emails as Secretary of State were on her private server. Absurd to think during her entire tenure as Secretary of State she thought that ZERO of her emails were classified.

 

That conclusion was drawn because her “server” WAS approved by the State Department

Im not claiming it was OK, I’m just stating the fact that it was approved by the State Department, the same as they had approved Colin Powels private server. (BOTH were dumb decisions by whomever approved them).

 

ALL the crimes Trump has been proven guilty of? Wrong thread! This one is about two of those crimes.

 

If they said that, Mueller proved them wrong. But this thread is about Mar-a-Lago and January 6.

 

I have no idea what "specific years" you're talking about.

 

Makes no difference if the onus is on him or not. Trump proved it anyway.

 

Anyone with any intelligence can clearly see what you're doing here in your response. I really didn't expect one, nor disappointed that you refuse to apologize.

 

Because that would be against DOJ policy. If you guys expect to make a meaningful contribution to this debate, you would need to start by reading, at a minimum, the Mueller Report, and watching the January 6 Hearings. I have provided summaries of both but, of course, they are only summaries... However, they would certainly help.

 

I asked you what "specific years" you were talking about because, if my suspicion as to what you would respond is correct, you might be having to apologize to me. So it's up to you. Quote the paragraph in which I use this expression "specific years" that you want me to apologize for, and explain what's wrong with it. Or don't, and spare yourself from being the one who has to apologize.

It makes no difference to me...

 

I bet that was the plan all along.
As soon as trump declares, a special council will be asked to over see investigation(s).

Then it's not an appointed head of a gov't agency doing the investigation, making it an impartial investigation.

 

What silliness. Yes, with Hillary as Secretary of State, the highest executive within the State Department, with complete authority over the entire department, the State Department gave their glowing approval. AND evidently approved of her not turning over ANY of her email records from her entire tenure as Secretary of state, when she left office as required by law. AND THEN, a year and a half after the fact when they demanded what they already should of had, she gave them 12 cases of 30,000 emails printed on paper. The ones she wanted them to have while excluding those she did not.

 

It would have been against DOJ policy if Trump was running for office in 2022. He wasnt.

 

You are either confused or . . . .

 

So full of it.

 

Thats the theory. Picking an attorney with such bias demonstrates Biden isnt concerned with that theory. Jack Smith is experienced in illegal criminal investigations into the Tea Party groups that lead to the Justice department paying untold millions in settlement to the tea party groups and individuals. Experienced in successful criminal prosecution of a first term Republican governor that stopped a second term, and then the supreme court of the US threw out ALL of Jacks convictions. Hes a political hit man.

 

Wrong! That's not the policy. Try again.

 

You got it backwards HE was the one who submitted his report saying he didn't know and tried to pass it off to them to decide. They said there were not crimes. It was not the other way around where HE then proved them wrong.

And you brought Benghazi into this thread certainly Mueller has more relelvence.

 

GOP Wants To Burn Down the Justice Department

They linked article says that like it's a bad thing.

'The GOP House Judiciary Committee faction, which will be charged with overseeing the Justice Department in the coming Congress, tweeted that "Jack Smith and his buddies have been politicizing Washington for AGES. And he's who AG Garland picked to be the special counsel to ‘investigate’ President Trump? Come on."'''

DOJ reeks with the odor of desperation.

Special Counsel for Trump, but not for Hunter, the international bribe mule for "10% for the Big Guy"?

Pelosi's Congress set the standard of incarceration for failing to comply with House oversight. The House has a jail, hopefully the DOJ pukes are bright enough not to try to illegitimately evade constitutional House oversight.

'Every move the department makes, and will make over the next two years, will be fodder for the hard-right talking point that a shady and dishonest DOJ has substituted for its basic law-enforcement mission an obsession with collecting Republican scalps.'

Actually, the burning question today is why has Dirtbag Merrick appointed a special counsel to investigation Hunter's international bribery ring which appears to have been selling whatever office "Ten Percent For The Big Guy" was holding at the time.


Dirtbag Merrick's latest appointment.

 

I queen Hillary Rodham Clinton, Secretary of State authorize the use of a private server in my home. This lie or just blatant ignorance has been posted throughout many forums. The truth is it was not authorized by "the State Department" whom ever that would be.

https://www.factcheck.org/2016/05/ig-report-on-clintons-emails/

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has said that her decision to use a private email account and server for government business while secretary of state was “allowed” by the State Department. She has said “my predecessors did the same thing,” and insisted she “fully complied with every rule” in preserving her work emails.

We have taken issue with those claims, and now so does the State Department Office of Inspector General, which issued a report on May 26 that contradicts several of Clinton’s claims about her emails:

• The IG report cited department policies dating to 2005 that require “normal day-to-day operations” to be conducted on government servers, contrary to Clinton’s claim that her server was allowed. It also said she “had an obligation” to discuss her email system with cybersecurity officials, but there’s “no evidence” that she sought or received their approval.

 

Comey set a new precedence which I am quite sure the DOJ would have been happy to follow so cut the bull. A special counsel was used because Trump declared his candidacy for president and Biden didn't want it to look like he was using his DOJ to go after a political opponent.

 

Not really. Comey contravened the policy. But it didn't set a precedent. If anything, it underlined WHY the policy is in place.

Of course! I have no idea why you think this contradicts anything I said. Except, they would have done this regardless of whether Trump declared his candidacy or not.
