{patriotnewsdaily.com} ~ As Robert Mueller’s investigation into the Trump/Russia affair limps towards a conclusion that is going to leave many Democrats extremely unsatisfied... we’re already beginning to see the widening gulf between what was promised from the rooftops and what will ultimately be delivered. The left spent the majority of this year selling us a story of intrigue, international collusion, a conspiracy to shape the course of the 2016 election, and TREASON. They did everything but come out and tell their supporters that by Christmas, they would have the pleasure of watching Donald Trump marched out of the White House and into an orange jumpsuit, courtesy of Mr. Mueller and The Justice Squad. As it turns out, it may not be that exciting. Not by a long shot. In fact, you can see that they’re already starting to shift the goalposts. Okay, maybe Trump didn’t “collude” with Russia. In that case, maybe Trump tried to “obstruct justice” when he fired James Comey. Oh, but that looks like a dead end street, since we can’t even get legal experts to agree on whether or not it’s even possible for a president to obstruct justice in such a way. After all, the president of the United States is the top law enforcement official in the country. Both the Justice Department and the FBI are under his direct purview. If he wants to fire the director of the FBI for cause, or for no cause at all, he’s perfectly within his rights to do so. There’s no crime here. None at all. The very idea that he could be charged with obstruction would bring about an unprecedented constitutional crisis... http://patriotnewsdaily.com/a-limp-mueller-from-treason-toviolations-of-the-logan-act/
Originally, you may recall, Mueller was tasked with finding collusion between Trump and the Russians into their hacking of the 2016 election. Despite the best efforts of the Left and their friends in the media, that charge has gone nowhere. No evidence has surfaced that Trump colluded with Russia to swing the election in his favor. The indictment of Paul Manafort is based on charges totally unrelated to Trump or the 2016 election, and charges against Flynn are about lying during the investigation, not about illegal deeds.
Mueller is under pressure to produce something — anything — against Trump. His mandate is open-ended, meaning that if the collusion investigation goes nowhere, then he is free to go in any other direction with his investigation until he finds something. Trump haters are hoping Mueller will find an impeachable offense. Or at the very least, that Mueller’s investigation tarnishes Trump enough to make his re-election impossible.
This is not how justice is supposed to work. Either a crime was committed or it was not. But in Washington, politics infuses the search for justice, and Mueller is a man on a mission. A mission that is shifting for reasons that seem to have more to do with politics than with the realities of the investigation.
The Mueller investigation started out not as a normal criminal investigation where a crime has been committed and there is a search for the culprit. In this case, there is an investigation in search of a crime. The Democrats wanted revenge over the 2016 election. Their arrogant worldview was that it was only natural that liar-Hillary Clinton follow Barack liar-nObama into the White House so that the transformation of America into a worker’s paradise could be completed. In their minds, it was not possible that Trump could beat liar-Clinton without breaking the law.
Yet Mueller’s crack team of Democrat hounds has had a hard time finding a crime related to Trump. With the collusion narrative all but dead, the current pivot to an obstruction of justice charge fills Trump haters with hope. The question now becomes whether Trump obstructed an FBI investigation. If it can be proven that Trump meddled in the FBI investigation of Flynn, then we may be looking at an impeachable offense.
Sen. Dianne Fein-stein (D-CA) noted earlier this week that the Senate Judiciary Committee, of which she is ranking member, has its own obstruction of justice investigation going against Trump. It’s not known if the Senate is privy to information that the special prosecutor does not have. Of course, any impeachment charge against Trump would have to come from the House (and the first attempt failed miserably Wednesday), but that’s a minor detail considering to what lengths the Left has gone to sabotage Trump.
The case for obstruction is not off to a very good start though. Comey himself has stated that he did not believe Trump obstructed justice in their discussions over the Flynn investigation. If anything, Trump may be guilty of poor judgment and bad politics in poking his head into the FBI investigation and later firing Comey, but that’s not even close to high crimes and misdemeanors.
The investigation will continue, however. Whether Trump skates without being charged, or whether the Democrats have their revenge remains to be seen. But make no mistake about this. What is taking place now is not the pursuit of justice, it is Swamp politics, pure and simple. ~The Patriot Post
