Mueller, covering all possibilities in trump investigation

With talk of firing sessions (ultimate target. Firing Mueller to stop investigation).
The ridicule of sessions after rumblings from Senate about termination, hoping to invoke the resignation.

I think Mueller is laying the groundwork for New York attorney to take over.

And do any indictments in the event the investigation is halted, or pardons are issued.

The president cannot pardon a state conviction, Guess who was his last hire.

Goldstein was former U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara's top public corruption prosecutor and kept the same role under Acting U.S Attorney Joon Kim.

He's known for multiple successful prosecutions of New York lawmakers on corruption charges. He's also highly regarded in the Southern District and across Justice for those prosecutions, his thoroughness in investigations, and high level of success.


Separately, a person with direct knowledge of the matter says that all cases previously handled in New York, which includes the probe of former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort, have been transferred to Mueller.

SORRYforOBSESSING what actually happened in Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania

This is not an exercise in blame, it's an exercise in internal critique.

Sometimes it's wise to look at oneself or issues first, truthfulness, always strengthens our argument.

It mentions the effects of voter suppression. But the reports were not released at the time.

Please, submit any proof of voter suppression, so we all can make a legitimate conclusions for ourselves.

A kind of rough final rehash, now that we have a lot more reports of what actually happened

Answer the question: Bernie Sanders clashes with WH budget director Mike Mulvaney

Answer the question: Bernie Sanders clashes with Trump budget chief during hearing

Yahoo NewsMay 25, 2017


Fireworks erupted Thursday when President Trumps budget chief sparred with a Senate panel over the administrations proposed 2018 budget, most notably trading barbs with Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., over potential cuts to entitlement programs.

Mick Mulvaney, director of the Office of Management and Budget, appeared before the Senate Budget Committee as part of the rollout of Trumps proposed spending plan, which was unveiled earlier this week.

Just minutes into the hearing, Mulvaney drew Sanders ire for comments he made about the Congressional Budget Office. The nonpartisan agency released a report Wednesday saying that the Republicans proposed health care law, a key piece of the administrations plan to cut Medicaid spending by some $800 billion, would result in the loss of health insurance for 23 million Americans.

I find it a little bit unfair that Mr. Mulvaney and many people in the Trump administration disparage the head of the CBO when it was a Republican who appointed him, Sanders said.

Mulvaney pushed back on those remarks, calling the CBO report awful and saying that the office is untrustworthy. We can agree the CBO puts out bad data, he said.

Sanders also blasted the budgets steep cuts to antipoverty programs, noting that they come at the same time the Trump administration is pushing for tax cuts that benefit the wealthy. He particularly criticized the proposed repeal of the estate tax.

Answer the question: The wealthiest family in America gets a $52 billion tax break as a result of the estate tax, Sanders told Mulvaney. Tell the American people why you think thats good when you cut Medicaid and you cut programs for kids.

In his response, Mulvaney noted that it is difficult to predict the expected impact of the tax cuts on wealthy Americans.

It is mathematically impossible to take those general principles and assume their impact on a particular family, he said.

That is not true, Sanders shot back.

The testy exchange was a source of amusement for other members of the committee.

That was borderline fascinating, Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said to laughter before beginning his questioning of Mulvaney.
