All now the media hasn't given his disgrace the appropriate coverage.

(1,007 posts)I mean, the IC has been investigating Manafort for 4 years. And with incidental data, anyone in his orbit for the last 4 years will have been recorded. Bringing all this data together from each department, cataloguing it, and then preparing indictments is the phase they are in now as far as Russia interference. Now, the obstruction of justice charge is just starting because they have to interview everyone with personal knowledge, but even that mostly has been done in the last couple of weeks.
Honestly, I see in the next couple of weeks, indictments being handed down and possible arrests.
And one reason for this, I feel that Mueller wants to turn up the heat under Dump's bacon to see what he will do.....kind of like pushing him from the frying pan into the fire.

I'm not buying the these things take time line. Not with all this smoke.

(1,007 posts)It is about done as far as the collective phase....now we want the indictment phase...
We want charges brought on...even if we have to wait for court dates....bring the charges out in the open....show the public the evidence.

That's very typical. It can be sometimes years between when they do a raid and seize evidence and when indictments come.

His power must be limited and the damage must end. He has no right to govern this country.
