Former US attorney Preet Bharara: Theres absolutely evidence that Trump obstructed justice
Source: Raw Story
Former New York U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara told ABC News on Sunday that there is absolutely evidence to begin an investigation into whether President Donald Trump obstructed justice.
During an interview with ABCs George Stephanopoulos, Bharara said that evidence provided by former FBI Director James Comeys suggested that Trump illegally tried to influence an investigation into Russias interference in the U.S. election and possible collusion with the Trump campaign.
There is absolutely evidence to begin a case, Bharara explained. No one knows right now whether there is a provable case of obstruction
[but] theres no basis to say theres no obstruction.
Bharara also recounted how he was fired by Trump after refusing to take an inappropriate phone call from the president.

Former U.S. attorney Preet Bharara on Sunday said he thinks there is evidence to start a case for obstruction of justice against President Trump.
"I think there's absolutely evidence to begin a case -- I think it's very important for all sorts of armchair speculators in the law, to be clear that no one knows right now whether there is a provable case of obstruction," he said on ABC's "This Week."
"It's also true...that there's no basis to say there's no obstruction."
Bharara also said during the interview that there is evidence from someone who is under oath that "on at least one occasion, the president of the United States, cleared the room of his vice president and his attorney general and told his director of the FBI that he should essentially drop the case against his former national security adviser."

(14,176 posts)Everything may have gone under the radar if the big orange goofus didn't do stupid shit like publicly encourage Russia to hack Hillary's emails, or admit that he fired Comey BECAUSE of the Russian investigation. Or leave so many breadcrumbs to follow in regards to meetings between his own appointed people and Russians.
