Re: Operation Boomerang is underway
Is "Hildabeast" Secretary Clinton?
There are similarities between the lies Republicans are trying to spin about the origins of the Trump investigation, and the truths about the Benghazi and Whitewater investigations.
What's "TDS"?

Re: Operation Boomerang is underway
Which coup was this? Was there a putsch I missed? Did AOC storm the White House carrying a pitchfork? Did ol' Nan unstrap her AK and start laying everybody down? Did Mad Dog Mattison whip out his K-Bar and carve up the Natl Security Council?
I thought all that happened was a duly appointed special counsel conducted a legal investigation, and the attorney general said it "fully exonerates" the president. Jesus. If that was an attempted coup, what do you think Watergate was?

Re: Operation Boomerang is underway
So, he didn’t conspire with Russia, but he did try to stop the investigation into a crime that never happened? Is that what you’re saying?
Again, I’m still confused. That’s not what the Mueller Report says. If Mueller thought Trump committed a crime...the report would’ve clearly stated that. It didn’t.
Are you deliberately disputing the report because you don’t know what it says or are you deliberately disputing it because you disagree w/Mueller’s findings?
Do you know what the legal definition of obstruction of justice is? If you don’t...look it up. I think it’ll help you understand everything a little better and why Mueller didn’t recommend any charges.Last edited by ravenmaniac4life; 05-18-2019 at 12:02 PM.

Re: Operation Boomerang is underway
He absolutely 100% did try to stop the investigation.
Although the report also said that many of the people around him failed to carry out his orders.
The report does NOT say that he didn't conspire with Russia. It says that it would be tough to prove that they violated the relevant campaign statutes, because many of them require knowledge or the rules and/or intent to break them. Tough standard.
Not the same thing as, the actions didn't happen.
That's what days spent listening to Faux News will get you.
I love these "if Mueller thought X then he would've Y" statements. You & Rob are so tight, you know what he "would have" done, huh?
Here's some of what he actually wrote""Third, we considered whether to evaluate the conduct we investigated under the Justice Manual standards governing prosecution and declination decisions, but we determined not to apply an approach that could potentially result in a judgment that the President committed crimes.""With respect to whether the President can be found to have obstructed justice by exercising his powers under Article II of the Constitution, we concluded that Congress has authority to prohibit a President's corrupt use of his authority in order to protect the integrity of the administration of justice. [...] The conclusion that Congress may apply the obstruction laws to the President's corrupt exercise of the powers of office accords with our constitutional system of checks and balances and the principle that no person is above the law."
I'm not disputing the report. I'm disputing your deliberate mischaracterizations of the report.
Not in your jurisdiction, I don't.
I wonder if these folks know the legal definition of obstruction?
