Mueller Is Telling Us: He's Got Trump on Collusion
NB: It is worth noting that despite wielding Presidential powers, Donald Trump is unable to control major investigations (at Federal and State level) into his own conduct. This is not because he does not want to, but because the investigators are functioning as independent judicial executives, performing their duties under the law and constitution, regardless of whether or not it displeases the President of the USA. Our own police, IAS officials and judiciary may kindly take note - and many of them do indeed remember their oath of office - you are servants of the Constitution, not of the Prime Minister or his ideological mentors in the RSS. It takes a long time building institutions, but they can be destroyed by a handful of unscrupulous rogues. Act in such a way that you can retire from service with your head held high. The Indian Union is not the fiefdom of any group, party or paramilitary. DS
For nearly two years,
since the U.S. intelligence community released its report on
the Russian campaign to assist Donald Trump in the 2016 election, the American
people have been seeking an answer as to whether the Trump campaign colluded
with its Russian counterpart. In the endless speculation about the direction of
the investigation, a common view was that maybe the investigation would never
implicate President Trump or find any collusion.
But a flurry of recent
activity this past week all points in the same direction: Special Counsel
Robert Mueller’s investigation will likely implicate the president, his
campaign, and his close associates in aiding and abetting a Russian conspiracy
against the United States to undermine the 2016 election.
First, Mueller has
clearly identified collusion in the efforts of top Trump aides and associates
to contact WikiLeaks. In a draft
plea agreement provided to conservative operative Jerome Corsi,
Mueller details how Roger Stone, who the special counsel notes was in frequent
contact with Donald Trump and senior campaign officials, directed Corsi to
connect with WikiLeaks about the trove of stolen materials it received from
Russia. Corsi subsequently communicated WikiLeaks’ release plan back to Stone,
and the Trump campaign built
its final message around the email release. That is collusion.
Second, we now know that Trump’s personal
lawyer Michael Cohen and former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn have
provided evidence to Mueller related to collusion. In Cohen’s sentencing memo,
Mueller said that Cohen provided his office with “useful information” on
“Russia-related matters core to its investigation.” The core of Mueller’s
investigation is collusion. In Flynn’s sentencing
memo Mueller said that Flynn’s false statements to the FBI about his
calls with the Russian ambassador during the transition were “material” to the
investigation into links or coordination between Russia and “individuals
associated with the Trump campaign.”... read more:
