"Obamagate"?
When does Durham speak?
********************
Attorney General William Barr says he does not "expect" Barack Obama or Joe Biden to face criminal investigations from the ongoing review of the Trump-Russia probe: "Our concern over potential criminality is focused on others."
onehell...... Only two people have ever been indicted under the Logan act with no convictions.
TBR......"It's Saul, not Sal..."
Well, THAT makes all the difference. Guilty! Lol
Onehell....."It’s the Logan Act."
Lmfao. So your case is a law that has been on the books since 1799, has been used a handful of times, with NO successful prosecutions? Oh, that is rich. Good luck in fantasy land.
“ How many people have been charged under the Logan Act?
I don’t know specifically. But that is the law that prohibits in coming administrations from working with foreign governments. It is not their job yet.
“ OMG. If that isn't a PERFECT example of "the pot calling the kettle black" I don't know what is.
What is it then?
“It's sort of like the fact that Trump was never called a racist until he ran for office as a Republican, then the accusations came out of the woodwork”.
How deep is your head buried in the sand?
Trump was sued by the DOJ back in the 70’s for racist business practices.
He was called a racist over his view of the Central Park 5.
Birther conspiracy.
WTF
It's Saul, not Sal...
Erotic - Obamagate is made up shit. It is the MO of the base of Trump. Never stop attacking. It doesn't matter if it is correct
OMG. If that isn't a PERFECT example of "the pot calling the kettle black" I don't know what is.
If you're not familiar with that. Go with "never throw stones while living in a glass house".
Gen. Flynn wasn't suddenly developing relationships with ambassadors and diplomats, he's had them for most of his career. He was railroaded and threatened and then agreed to a plea deal that the FBI reneged on when they thought Mueller was going to come up with a magic bullet.
If they could do this to someone in his position, what could they do to you?
He was Obama's director of the Defense Intelligence Agency until he warned them about Turkey looking the other way during the Al-Qaeda build-up, waiting for the US to take out Assad in Syria. It would have been a massive implosion, giving Al-Qaeda a home country, possibly a worse situation than what happened in Iraq. Obama decided that Flynn was suddenly too chaotic and difficult to work with and he retired.
Most people have no idea how close we came to causing a massive war.
How many people have been charged under the Logan Act?
The lobbying ruling was overturned. His company was registered as a foreign agent, he had done lobbying work legally, I have no idea if their taxes were in order but considering the scrutiny they gave his family and friends I'm guessing they passed. He was a 3-star General with a lengthy career in counter-terrorism, well known and worked for several administrations, considered an honorable man before he worked for DJT, not a blemish on his record.
Until Trump hired him. It's sort of like the fact that Trump was never called a racist until he ran for office as a Republican, then the accusations came out of the woodwork. Do you know why most people find that unbelievable? As long as he filled the pockets of the Democrats he was a great guy.
Obamagate is made up shit. It is the MO of the base of Trump. Never stop attacking. It doesn't matter if it is correct.
See what is funny is that the republicans scream that Obama was trained by Sal Alinsky. That everything Obama did was that of Alinsky's lessons.
Now look at Trump. Everything he does is based off of Roy Cohn. Follow the Cohn tree and you get . . .
Donald Trump
and
Rupert Murdoch
and
Roger Stone
Interesting tree to follow.
"So Gen. Flynn, in his official capacity as part of the transition team, is not allowed to have diplomatic relations with a foreign government?"
Diplomatic relations... is that what you call getting paid to lobby on behalf of a foreign government? Not to mention illegally failing to report either the lobbying or the income?
Flynn was a paid agent of the government of Turkey while serving as NSA.
It’s the Logan Act.
A not yet sworn in administration cannot under mind a current administrations foreign policy.
He or she may be the President elect and his administration is his extension. But he or she is not President until he or she is inaugurated.
AZ..... So Gen. Flynn, in his official capacity as part of the transition team, is not allowed to have diplomatic relations with a foreign government? That is a new one. Your bullshit gets more colvoluted with each post. What's next? An incoming president is breaking the law by getting security briefings? Lmfao
"The notes say they openly questioned if their "goal" was "to get him to lie, so we can prosecute him or get him fired."
This is what you think their job is?"
FUCK YES!!!
I notice you didn't say that the underlying crimes didn't actually happen. So, you think it is the job of the President, Vice President, Head of the FBI, and other top law enforcement officials to let someone who is colluding with foreigners serve as the Chief of Staff of the President Elect?
I get that Trump really likes Flynn, and that Trump doesn't have a problem selling out your country for personal gain. That doesn't mean that it wasn't the job of outgoing administration to investigate crime.

DNLB.....” What's next, fart jokes?”
No, this is when he usually resorts to the race card. After all, all white republicans are racist. Didn’t you know that? Lmfao
8*: Is that what Trump answered to the reporter?
That wasn't what you asked. If you change the question after I've answered it's not gonna make sense. But I think that's what you're aiming for, incoherent arguments. The reporter knows as well as you do what he's talking about. Refusing to respond to an inane argument doesn't mean you don't know the answer and only a juvenile thinks it is some sort of success to claim that.
What's next, fart jokes?
Onehell.....” I can’t read his long ass winded posts. My apologies to you.”
Most would side with you on that point. Lol. Brevity is not his strong suit.
We'll see how it shakes out. Susan Rice protected herself with an email to herself describing the events, that Sally Yates was surprised by the information about the wiretap being given and the willingness of Comey to go after Flynn.
This is all tied together, the FISA warrants for Carter Page, the denial by Obama of wiretaps, the administration spying on the Trump campaign and then using it to investigate them for taxes and business registrations.
If they had ANY evidence of anyone "colluding with the Russians" they had a duty to make the incoming administration aware of it and stop it immediately, not try to trip them up under the pretext of "informal meetings" to be used in a secret investigation.
The notes say they openly questioned if their "goal" was "to get him to lie, so we can prosecute him or get him fired."
This is what you think their job is?
OBAMAGATE is the new Obamacare. I like OBAMAGATE better than Obamacare. It is real and honest description.
