Would you like fries and a coke with all those cheeseburgers?

The more legs, the more likely the indicted will walk.

Watergate a crime lead to an investigation.

2016 an investigation looking for a crime.

You don't see them?

Nixon had workers break into opponents campaign headquarters and then opposition went after him, getting him on process crime.

Clinton had workers break into opponents communications everywhere and then had employees go after opposition, getting some on process crimes.

Right! Until it's not right
"Show me the man and I'll show you the crime.".
Consider:
"Lavrentiy Beria, the most ruthless and longest-serving secret police chief in Joseph Stalin’s reign of terror in Russia and Eastern Europe, bragged that he could prove criminal conduct on anyone, even the innocent."

I don't doubt that the FBI could interview anyone on this board for several hours over several occasions and no matter how honest we may try to be, they could pull a Beria and indict us.
Oh, we might get off. But it might cost each of us a lot of money in legal fees to do so.
Mueller is skating well outside of what he was mandated to do.

Maybe if she and ht DNC had been more responsible in their electronic communications none of this would have happened.
Just how did Julian GET all those emails?

That still warrants investigation.

Besides, the Senate has lots of free time - with no bills from the House having to be looked and and voted on for the next two years.

Mueller: Trump campaign officials communicated with Stone on WikiLeaks in 2016

https://thehill.com/policy/national-...-with-stone-on

“Stone was contacted by senior Trump Campaign officials to inquire about future releases by Organization 1,” the document states, in an apparent reference to WikiLeaks. Those communications took place after WikiLeaks released emails stolen from the Democratic National Committee in July 2016.
The indictment charges that Stone stayed in touch with the campaign about WikiLeaks and potential email releases in the months leading up to the election.
Federal prosecutors say that Stone received an email from a “high-ranking Trump Campaign official asking about the status of future releases” by WikiLeaks in early October 2016.

If you TRY to rob a bank, but fail, are you still guilty of bank robbery?

If you copy a hard drive onto a thumb drive, send it to wiki-leaks, and get shot coming home one night with nothing taken from you.

Is this still considered a robbery?

Only if you use a gun... or...

Don’t actually own the bank.

Excellent question. Nobody worries about this kind of thing though.

All the Trump conspiracies are way more valid and important than the Seth Rich conspiracies that are a potential GOLD MINE by comparison.

Good ol DWS was awarded with some seat on some committee too...

But let's worry about Trump's team talking to Wikileaks...as if that's illegal.

I sent the guy 10 bucks for his legal defense a few months ago.

Might even triple it.

Ask me the same question 50 different ways and I'll contradict myself.

Stone going to Wikileaks to see what they have is bad.

Clinton hiring someone to see what Russia has is good.

Hope I'm getting this right. Oh and Roger Stone is scum who I'm glad to see is getting some payback for all the garbage he's done over the years.

[Buckeye]

Typical hate from a Democrat.

You are a Democrat right?

[Buckeye]

The Left and the Democrats want to destroy the United States of America as
founded and exists.

Go ahead and dispute that.
