Trump And Kavanaugh To Be Investigated By Democratic House: Answers Sought.

[PoliTalker]

Trump fired the first shot by replacing Sessions with his loyalist Whitaker. Whitaker has already discussed a slow-kill approach to the Mueller investigation by cutting the funding. This is Trump's back door way of shutting down the Muller investigation.

He has dared Democrats to respond.

Let the investigations begin!

"“The American people like and respect fighters, and they have elected us to put a check on the executive branch,” Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.), who said he has been talking to his colleagues about pushing ahead with investigations of Trump, starting with his tax returns."

...

"“We’ll fill in the gaps on the Russia investigations,” Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.), a member of the House Intelligence Committee, told NBC on Wednesday."

...

"Nadler also recently told the New York Times that he would scrutinize the FBI’s review of sexual assault allegations against Supreme Court Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh, which Democrats have complained was too limited.

To dig into Trump’s allegiances abroad, Democrats may scrutinize Trump’s hotel in downtown Washington — and the foreign clients who frequent it.

Foreign dignitaries from Kuwait, the Philippines, Saudi Arabia and elsewhere have patronized the hotel. Such transactions have prompted two lawsuits alleging that Trump is violating the Constitution’s prohibition on presidents taking “emoluments,” or payments, from foreign states."

If this thread is stolen, plagiarized, will the thief have the nerve to use the entire OP, word for word? Including this disclaimer?

If you want my take on it, you'll have to post to this original thread. I refuse to be an enabler for online bullies, so I won't post to a stolen thread. I won't even read it.

Thread thievery is the tool of trolls. You know, people talk about one another. You might as well admit it is true, and realize the people who know you, talk about you when you are not present. I can accept that. Many can't. Trolls can't. They have to try to conTROLL what people say about them. (Like Trump!) They can't stand the thought of people talking about them without trying to conTROLL the conversation. That's the insecurity talking......

The people banned from this thread were banned because they refused to be polite, so I refuse to talk to them. I came to talk about Just Plain Politics.

Whitaker has already got himself on the radar of the special council.

His Quid Pro Quo acceptance of his new job will be investigated and exposed and he will find himself in ethics violations immediately.

We will never allow a Donald Trump stooge to give a single order in the Justice department.

The Justice Department works for the people- not Donald Trump!

And we will prove this to Donald Trump by rejecting him legally and any authority Donald Trump thinks he has put in place here.

Hello Adolf_Twitler,

Whitaker has already got himself on the radar of the special council.

His Quid Pro Quo acceptance of his new job will be investigated and exposed and he will find himself in ethics violations immediately.

One thing is crystal clear. If he had been working for Mueller and made those public statements? He would have been thrown off the investigation. Mueller would never stand for such blatant impropriety.

We will never allow a Donald Trump stooge to give a single order in the Justice department.

The Justice Department works for the people- not Donald Trump!

And we will prove this to Donald Trump by rejecting him legally and any authority Donald Trump thinks he has put in place here.

Would be VERY interesting if Mueller investigates Whitaker and finds dirt.

Turns out, he's another swamp kkkreature.

Trump's acting attorney general was part of firm US accused of vast scam
Matthew Whitaker sat on advisory board of World Patent Marketing, which was ordered to pay $26m settlement in May
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...eneral-us-firm

Court filings in the case against World Patent Marketing show that Whitaker received regular payments of $1,875 from the Florida-based company, and sent a threatening email to a victim of the alleged scam.

Whitaker publicly vouched for the company, claiming in a December 2014 statement that they “go beyond making statements about doing business ‘ethically’ and translate those words into action”.

What's next for the Trump-Russia inquiry now Sessions has been fired?

Whitaker, a former US attorney for the southern district of Iowa, said at the time: “I would only align myself with a first-class organization.”

Whitaker’s role in the alleged scam was first reported by the Miami New Times in August 2017, shortly before he joined the Trump administration as a senior aide to Sessions.

World Patent Marketing and its founder, Scott Cooper, were sued by the Federal Trade Commission in March last year. The government said it had “operated an invention-promotion scam that has bilked thousands of consumers out of millions of dollars”.

The company was accused of tricking hopeful inventors into paying it thousands of dollars to obtain patents and licensing deals for their inventions. In fact, they “failed to fulfill almost every promise they make to consumers”, the complaint said.

Emails filed to federal court show that in August 2015, Whitaker cited his former role as a federal prosecutor in a threatening email to a customer of World Patent Marketing who had complained about the company to the Better Business Bureau.
