Previously undisclosed evidence in the possession of Special Counsel Robert Mueller—including highly confidential White House records and testimony by some of President Trump’s own top aides—provides some of the strongest evidence to date implicating the president of the United States in an obstruction of justice. Several people who have reviewed a portion of this evidence say that, based on what they know, they believe it is now all but inevitable that the special counsel will complete a confidential report presenting evidence that President Trump violated the law. Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who oversees the special counsel’s work, would then decide on turning over that report to Congress for the House of Representatives to consider whether to instigate impeachment proceedings.
The central incident in the case that the president obstructed justice was provided by former FBI Director James B. Comey, who testified that Trump pressed Comey, in a private Oval Office meeting on February 14, 2017, to shut down an FBI criminal investigation of Trump’s former national security adviser, Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn. “I hope you can see your way clear to letting this go, to letting Flynn go,” Comey has testified the president told him. |
Back to this shit again? Comey was working for Trump. He has a right to give direction on the case. He could have ordered Comey to drop the case completely. The Chief Executive cannot obstruct Justice in this manner. Words do not make a conspiracy, nor do they make up obstruction. It takes an overt act to occur. Just discussing a case doesn’t make for obstruction. Especially if you are the Chief executive overseeing the investigating agency.
If your version of obstruction was valid, thousands of Police Chiefs, prosecutors etc would be guilty every day.
