Comey is moving towards declaring indictments. Grand Juries are there. Impeachment.

1. I wish MSNBC would pickup Keith Olbermann again, but given their direction, that's doubtful. n/t

6. So glad Keith finally paid attention to the Twitter jpurnalists.

I follow several of them daily, and so far their info beats the MSM by a matter of months, and people like Keith by a matter of weeks. Notice the time stamp on the Tweet pages he shows.

18. I follow the same way, too.

At times it's quite a chore.

2. Wow! Very encouraging. One reason Comey couldn't comment on much of anything.

3. Imagine how different the closed hearings are!

4. Trump walks and talks like a hard core thug.

I wonder if the Russians bailed him out form under his debt with the mob.

8. Russia/other countries money laundered by Trump, for years, is the issue.

Wayne Barrett, in his book about Trump, reported at length on Trump's dad, Fred, who had mob connections back in teh 50's on up.
When Trump went bankrupt over the casinos in Atlantic City, it was Wilbur Ross who bailed Trump out by interceding with the banks, Trump ended up with ...this is true...$450,000 a MONTH to live on.The rest of the deal was that he stay away from casino deals.
The banks refused to loan him any money after that, so he apparently hooked up with Russia/Ukraine banks and people, building hotels instead of casinos.
So the RICO charge is about the money laundering.

Interesting fact: His business partners in the Toronto hotel and in Baku appear to be to be tied to money laundering.
I strongly believe those are not the only 2.

5. Oh My

This is great

7. At this point I suspect the leaks are intentional and the big arrest day is near.

They seem to be putting the sweat on the perps to get more lower level people to cut deals and squeal on the orange guy. Plus, the news coming from Netherlands indicates their massive investigation into Russian mob money laundering and racketeering led straight to Trump Tower.

10. I hope this is going to happen soon

12. This could run deep

ask yourself, what businesses are the Russians in domestically and
globally?

9. wonder if this is what motivated some repukes to push through

health care legislation so blindly?

[bucolic_frolic]

11. I'll believe it when I see it because

it's a money trail and money is not usually handled by the higher-ups
but by unofficial underlings - agents without portfolio so to speak

They do what they are told, everyone knows it, but there are no
fingerprints on the paper trail that authorized them to do so

14. In a money laundering case, whoever signs the documents is legally liable. Trump!

13. Does someone know

I'd like to know about the openness of intel sharing between between us and other countries (Netherlands in particular) as pertains to what is automatically accepted (not vetted) and what percentage of intel is shared. I ask because of the scrutiny the Steele Dossier was put under. Or maybe the Steele Dossier really came under scrutiny only in the media?

[L. Coyote]

15. There are arrangements. Five Eyes and more.

Most of these are agreements between countries, and the amount of sharing has risen with international terrorism threats. It also is a matter of need arising. Evidence of crimes can result in sharing of the intel.

In the case of Trump and Russia, much more relevant is criminal investigations of the Russian mob and how it moves money outside of Russia. This isn't intelligence sharing so much, rather law enforcement cooperation.

16. I think we're likely to be disappointed

they may catch the money launderers, and the foreign collusion perps,
but proving it's influencing policy or proving the elections were rigged?
Doesn't sound like they're going there.
