1. Republican dirty tricks

They just never seem to learn

[Wounded Bear]

3. That's because they get away with it too often...

[Qutzupalotl]

2. Sure looks like conspiracy to obstruct justice.

Gift-wrapped, neatly tied with a bow with everyone’s signatures, dropped right into Mueller’s lap. What idiots.

[Poiuyt]

4. Absolutely. But it might be difficult to tie it directly to trump

[BigmanPigman]

7. That is what I am thinking too.

[Qutzupalotl]

19. They don't need to. They have Trump on other things.

This just gets the lackeys off the field.

20. Well, shut my mouth. Someone already linked them:

14. It's not just that they never learn....

they're just really, really. really BAD AT IT!

[magicarpet]

5. Fascist fabrications of wrongdoings by others,..

... to divert the spotlight of criminality from themselves.

[FakeNoose]

6. Why would anybody even get involved in this shit?

"Everything Trump touches dies." Rick Gates is already a convicted felon, and this guy Burkman worked with him? Now he's getting the next subpoena and he'll sing like a canary.

8. when they think they are above the law

presidents do stupid things. Nixon went to his deathbed believing that law doesn't apply to presidents and tRump has the supreme court to back him up so he may be right this time.

[Scurrilous]

10. More about Burkman

Again, a Burkman scheme falls apart.

Mueller Accuser Jack Burkman Promoted Baseless Conspiracy Theories, Accused Chief Justice Roberts of Using Opioids

Right-wing lobbyist and pundit Jack Burkman made a splash on Tuesday when he released a Facebook live video—quickly promoted via right-wing media outlets like Gateway Pundit—in which he claimed that in two days he would hold a press conference with a woman who would make a credible claim of sexual assault against special counsel Robert Mueller.

Burkman’s tale began to unravel quickly, when Mueller’s office revealed that it had asked the FBI to investigate allegations that women had been offered cash by a Burkman associate to make false allegations against Mueller. NBC News reported that Jacob Wohl, a hedge fund manager who has been banned by the National Futures Association and who writes for Gateway Pundit, was connected to Surefire Intelligence, which is “involved with Burkman’s alleged plot.” According to NBC, “Wohl stopped responding to NBC News after being told Surefire’s official phone number redirects to his mother’s voicemail.”

11. Low life crooks and liars that what the GOP is.

[Paladin]

12. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

One of these days---maybe, perhaps, somehow---one of these "really, really bad for trump---what a stupid mistake they've made" stories will actually turn out to BE bad news for trump. Probably sometime after he starts goose-stepping around in public in a black uniform with a deaths'-head insignia and a red armband.
