Re: Meeting at White House tomorrow?

People are afraid that Nunes will scurry straight to Trump to tell him what in is the documents revealed by Christopher Wray and Rod Rosenstein. We are assuming that Trump will not sit in on the meeting.

But, if General Kelly is going to lead the meeting, who would think that he would not tell Trump everything he learns from the meeting? It is not just Nunes to be concerned about.

The bottom line is that the information should not be shared at all. It is not the job of the Justice Department to prepare Donald Trump for questions that Robert Mueller may ask him in his interview.

However, if the meeting does happen, no information should be shared without Democrats present in the meeting. Somebody has to police this bunch of criminals. Who knows what might be exposed to Trump and Nunes if no one is watching??

I knew about the meeting but didn’t know it was at the WH. Was just ranting to the guys in my household that Dems need to be shouting from the rooftops about this traitorous meeting in which they aren’t invited. I was hoping the meeting would be held on the Hill and Dems would alert the media that they planned to crash it. Now that I find out it is at the WH, I’d sure like to see Dem leadership talking nonstop about how suspicious this secret meeting is. Things are going downhill fast IMO.

If Kelly is setting it up, I assumed he would be there and that it would be the same place as the last one, the White House???

It shouldn't be held at all, anywhere.



I saw this link: https://www.cnn.com/2018/05/21/politics/rod-rosenstein-christopher-wray-donald-trump-meeting/index.html

I misread your OP and assumed it would be at the WH. My mistake. I’m hearing Stephanie Miller and crew refer to the mystery meeting but not to it’s location. Maybe we’ll learn more as the day does on. Regardless, if no Dems are allowed, it would be really good to see less hand wringing and more references to the word Conspiracy. We’re THERE. Thanks kentuck.

like MontanaMama, I too, thought the meeting was on the Hill. I also thought that even though he set the meeting up, John Kelly would NOT be in attendance.

I am not sure where the meeting will be held? I thought it would be a repeat of the meeting that was held Monday. but with documents and with House Republicans. Either way, it is intruding upon a criminal investigation and the participants should be held liable, in my opinion.

One clue may be that when CNN put up an illustration showing who would be at the meeting, in the background they had a shot of the Capital Dome, but who knows?

Man, I LOVE Malcolm Nance. I could listen to him for hours!

Oh and by the way, IMO, if there EVER was a face that needs punching, it is that scumbag, weasel Devin Nunes.
And I would gladly subscribe to 'Pay for View' to see Adam Schiff deliver it!

Apparently, Pelosi and Schumer have written a letter. I haven't seen it yet, but I know they're PISSED!

Also, I'm hearing rumors that at a minimum, the 'Gang of Eight' should be in attendance, so we shall see!

Come ON America! This is a big TEST. Shit's gettin' real.

That would make sense to me.

If that's the case, here is the Wiki page on its location and history:
