Some things we know before the Muller Report is released.

[Jarod]

We know, because it was the unanimous conclusion of the intelligence community, that Russia sought to interfere in the election to help Trump and hurt Hillary Clinton, believing the billionaire businessman was better for them.

We know that multiple people within Trump's orbit -- former national security adviser Michael Flynn, former foreign policy adviser George Papadopoulos, former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen -- have all pleaded guilty to making false statement to either Congress or federal investigators (or both) regarding the nature and breadth of their contacts with the Russians during the campaign.

We know that former Trump political adviser Roger Stone has been charged with lying to Congress about his knowledge of and dealings with WikiLeaks, the website that served as a clearinghouse for emails the Russians stole from the servers of the Democratic National Committee and Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta.

We know that many of the contacts between Trump associates and the Russians date back to the spring of 2016 (at least), which is when Papadopoulos' bragging to an Australian diplomat that he knew Russia had dirt on Clinton set in motion what has come to be special counsel Robert Mueller's probe.

We know that in June 2016, three of the top officials in Trump's campaign -- Donald Trump Jr., Jared Kushner and Paul Manafort -- met with Russians, a meeting the top Trump brass took under the promise of "dirt" on Clinton.

We know that Manafort, the campaign chairman at the time, shared polling information with a Russian with known ties to Russia's intelligence operation.


Wow, thats a lot of burger..... Several crimes here relating to Trump's close associates and then lying about contacts with Russia. Mueller has done a good job ending the career of several men who had no business in government of politics, and it looks like justice is being served. Does Mueller have the next step? Where does Rump himself fit in? Did Trump commit indictable offences? Impeachable offences? That is the answer I am hoping we get next week.

If the Justice department keeps the report secret, we may never know, but if they do that, clearly we have a very good guess.

We know that Garud will run away when any of his 'points' are obliterated, just as he does in his other 'i be smaat' threads.

I am right here. Are you stalking me?

We all saw Trump on national television beg Russian state intelligence services to hack the computers of his American political opponents, and we know that within days of Trump's televised request, Russian intelligence were hacking Democratic computers.

What a load of bollocks, even for you!!

"It was a joke." Right.

[Frank Apisa]

THE most interesting parts of the Mueller Report...will probably be any comments he has about people he decided NOT to prosecute despite having enough evidence for an indictment to be requested. (If there are any.)

Possible candidates: The president and members of his immediate family.

Lots of reasons this might be the case...particularly for him not to do it.

AND...he may actually have comments recommending that prosecution be considered.

[anatta]

"It was a joke." Right.

it was. if he was serious, and there was "collusion" would Trump have just stated it openly?

[Jarod]

I should have added that to "what we already know."

[Jarod]

"It was a joke." Right.

Quite a joke, considering he claims he did not know about the negotiations going on behind the scenes at that EXACT time to get those stolen emails.

[Jarod]

He did not understand that it was a crime. Yes he is that stupid.

Refute any fucking one of his points, moron.

[anatta]

Papadopolis had no contact with Russians. he had contact with "the professor" (Halperin) who said he had contact with Joseph Mifsud.

Manafort had extensive contact with Ukraine Party of Regions because of his career.

Flynn had contact with Kislyak as part of his normal incoming duites as NSC advisor

Stone contacted WIKI to find out what the Emails were - WIKI is not a "clearing house for Russian intel"\

I could go on but what's the point? There was no collusion/conspiracy and Mueller will say that

[anatta]

He did not understand that it was a crime. Yes he is that stupid.

he would certainly understand that colluding with Putin ( and just exactly HOW could that have happened to change the election?) would put his presidency into question.
Not that it mattered because the FBI/DoJ cabal was out to destroy him anyways

[domer76]

We also know that Trump lied about his dealings with the Russians all through the campaign. The same issue that Cohen is going to prison for - Trump Tower. And he continues to do so.

We also saw Trump lie, in a video aboard AF1, and in a memo he dictated to Hope Hicks, to cover up Junior's meeting with the Russians in June 2016.
