Trump’s lawyer calls for Russia probe to be shut down

23

The “Trump Russia probe” is evidence of the treasonous lengths the left will go to when they lose. The extraordinary persecution of Trump and his administration — whose only crime was to win an election — is a stunning indictment of the lawlessness and treasonous subterfuge of the Democrat party.

Mueller Investigation Flouts DOJ Standards

FOX News: March 17, 2018:

President Trump’s personal attorney John Dowd called on Saturday for Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein to shut down FBI Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe — coming just hours after ex-FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe was fired.

“I pray that Acting Attorney General Rosenstein will follow the brilliant and courageous example of the FBI Office of Professional Responsibility and Attorney General Jeff Sessions and bring an end to alleged Russia Collusion investigation manufactured by McCabe’s boss James Comey based upon a fraudulent and corrupt Dossier,” he said in a statement to Fox News.

“Just end it on the merits in light of recent revelations,” he added.

Rosenstein is overseeing the probe after Attorney General Jeff Sessions recused himself from any investigation related to Russia and the Trump campaign. Dowd said he made the remarks in his personal capacity and not on behalf of the president.

His remarks came after Sessions fired former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe late Friday after a yet-unpublished IG report found that he made an unauthorized leak to the media and then “lacked candor” when speaking about its investigators. McCabe was fired just days before he would have been eligible for a lifetime pension

Sessions’ decision to fire McCabe came as Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz concluded a bureau oversight investigation, with a report expected to be critical of McCabe’s handling of the Hillary Clinton email probe, his handling of the bureau during the early months of the Russia investigation, and his ties to the Democratic Party.

Horowitz determined that McCabe hadn’t been forthcoming regarding the handling of the FBI’s probe into Clinton’s use of a private email server while she was secretary of state in the Obama administration.

The inspector general’s finding sparked an FBI disciplinary process that recommended McCabe’s firing. Sources told Fox News that the FBI’s Office of Professional Responsibility made the recommendation to fire McCabe. Sessions had the option to either accept the recommendation, or step in to stop the firing process.

Trump hailed the firing as a “great day for the hard working men and women of the FBI” in a tweet early Saturday.

McCabe hit back at the move in a statement Friday, calling his firing part of an “ongoing war at the FBI.”

“This attack on my credibility is one part of a larger effort not just to slander me personally, but to taint the FBI, law enforcement, and intelligence professionals more generally,” McCabe said. “It is part of this Administration’s ongoing war on the FBI and the efforts of the Special Counsel investigation, which continue to this day. Their persistence in this campaign only highlights the importance of the Special Counsel’s work.”

Wishful thinking, although the President’s lawyer is right asking for the shutting down or the dismissal of this Russian witch hunt. The Gestapo-like FBI under Herr Mueller, a Muppet, a cog within the inner-working of this vile conspiracy. Mueller’s Fuhrer(s) is facilitating this treasonous endeavor to usurp the President. My inkling is, the Fuhrer, the facilitator, is the one and only, the Machiavellian Obama. Mueller is a loathsome lapdog but one of many beckoning to his Master’s command, Sieg Heil!

More correctly, the facilitator is George Soros.

Actually, I don’t disagree, I was going to say Fuhrers but picked Obama. Soros, of course, is in the thick of it as are several others. However, Obama, as a front man is more Fuhrer-like; Soros is the money and backroom Fuhrer. The Leftists are shallow, they prefer a gussied up (censored) to some old guy who has the appeal of a corpse on a hot, humid day. Not that it matters, they are all a part in the intermingling of outhouse byproducts.

Unless you’re a moslem. They just squat in the street, if outside, or wherever they desire, if inside. Ergo, the “pot” is not a necessity.

Mueller has disgraced himself thoroughly and irredeemably by his flagrant abuse of authority, strapping TWO ankle bracelets on a cooperative, innocent witness Paul Manafort and his obviously fraudulent prosecution of an American hero and life-long patriot Gen. Mike Flynn, mercilessly driving both retired men into financial distress and threatening their family members with more bogus felonies, all in a lawless, thuggish effort to extort phony testimony from them against The People’s choice for President, Donald Trump, because Trump pledged to turn over the big flat rock where Mueller and the rest of the dirty obama junta, including McCabe, have been swimming around in the muck since they all fell tragically under the spell of an African dictator who never, NEVER should have been president of our country.
The longer Mueller perpetrates this blatant hoax against America, the Rule of Law and the American people, the more likely his name will be added to the already long list of those who will be taking the fall for their crimes against our country, including: obama, Clinton, Comey, Holder, Lynch, Brennan, Clapper, Power, Rice, Jarrett, Rhodes, Kerry, Earnest, Axelrod, etc.
McCabe is the first domino to fall.

Things are really heating up
– with every new revelation of wrongdoing
– the Left moves farther Left
– they ignore the Constitutional structure
– and try to browbeat, threaten, undermine, bypass
– the rule of law
– because the law is not on their side
– this will get far worse before it gets better
– and we will have to be stronger than them

Pink underwear for McCabe!
Like Joe Arpaio would do.
See it through.
I understand there may be McCabe related witness documents that were tampered with.
We’ll see, soon enough.

As long as Trump is “under investigation”, the Left will really argue that he has no credibility. Therefore you should expect this witch hunt to contiue at least up until mid-terms. How would it look if Trump was to campaign for fellow Republicans?

If any of us were in law enforcement and were unable to provide one shred of evidence in eighteen months of crime investigation, we would be handed a sandwich and a road map. The so-called Trump-Russia probe is a first hand look at the type of tyranny against which the Second Amendment and other parts of the Constitution were authored.

They can have my gun when they pry it from my cold dead fingers.

Be safe, be trained, be alert.

The investigations have done one thing for certain: They have proven beyond a shadow of a doubt the stupidity and wastefulness of the Democrats.

Mueller went through 300 thousand documents, 15 million dollars and a year and a half investigation to get Trump. I blame the asshole Sessions for doing it and he should also be fired that incompetent asshole!

“This attack on my credibility is one part of a larger effort not just to slander me personally, but to taint the FBI, law enforcement, and intelligence professionals more generally,” McCabe said. “It is part of this Administration’s ongoing war on the FBI and the efforts of the Special Counsel investigation, which continue to this day. Their persistence in this campaign only highlights the importance of the Special Counsel’s work.”

So Mr. McCabe is upset about these “unwarranted” attacks on him and his holier than thou cadre of anti-Trumpers, but has no problem with their farcical vendetta against Trump, his supporters and all those Americans who voted for him. If Trump were as big a whiny hiney as Mr. McCabe he might counter with the following:

This attack on my credibility is one part of a larger effort not just to slander me personally, but to taint Republicans and the entire conservative movement more generally. It is part of the progressive, social justice Lefts determined efforts to overturn the 2016 election, efforts ongoing since that election. Their persistence in this campaign only highlights the importance of exposing their perfidy, stealth fascism and intellectual hubris that supports their supremacist view: good for me but not for thee.

Funny how the Left gets apoplectic when someone does to them what they routinely do to whoever dares to cross what they consider is an unacceptable violation of their self imposed rules of acceptable behavior.

Losers without good character will always be unable to accept reality. Mueller with his head down appears to be looking for spare change on the floor. Democrats and RINOS are traitors in every way. Both of these establishment groups have joined together as one globalist party, leaving only 5% true conservatives in the practically defunct republican party. Republicans deliberately lost in Pennsylvania, They played the same game – help the democrat win then blame them when things go wrong. But we’re onto them now.
