Trump Should Have Followed Through on His Campaign Promise to Prosecute Clinton Immediately - Why He picked Jeff Sessions Is Beyond Me

Trump: 'So General Flynn lies to the FBI and his life is destroyed' but 'nothing happens' to Hillary Clinton

President Trump reignited the “Crooked Hillary” attacks in a series of tweets calling attention to what he views as a double standard between how Hillary Clinton's email scandal was handled versus the controversy surrounding former national security adviser Michael Flynn, who pleaded guilty in federal court Friday to lying to the FBI.

So General Flynn lies to the FBI and his life is destroyed, while Crooked Hillary Clinton, on that now famous FBI holiday “interrogation” with no swearing in and no recording, lies many times...and nothing happens to her? Rigged system, or just a double standard?

A few minutes later the president followed up by taking a swipe at the Justice Department.

Many people in our Country are asking what the “Justice” Department is going to do about the fact that totally Crooked Hillary, AFTER receiving a subpoena from the United States Congress, deleted and “acid washed” 33,000 Emails? No justice!

During the 2016 election, Clinton was under FBI investigation for the usage of an unauthorized personal email server while serving as secretary of state during the Obama administration. She was reportedly interrogated by the FBI over a holiday weekend in 2016, which appears to be what Trump was referring to.

Ultimately the investigation found that there was no criminal wrongdoing in her actions, with former FBI Director James Comey saying last summer calling her conduct "extremely careless."

Flynn was fired as national security adviser in February after it was revealed he misled Trump officials about his communications with the Russian ambassador.
Throughout the year, Flynn has been a leading subject of scrutiny in special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia probe. He pleaded guilty Friday to lying to the FBI about his contact with Russian officials in January and has stated he will cooperate with Mueller.

Lying to the FBI could get Flynn up to five years of prison time, but court documents suggest that the sentence could be lighter.

  1. Former White House national security adviser Michael Flynn pleaded guilty Friday to lying to the FBI about contacts with Russia’s former ambassador to the U.S., admitting he violated a law that also criminalizes lying to Congress.

    Scholars have mixed views on whether Flynn’s guilty plea is bad news for Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who allegedly lied to Congress about his contacts with the same ambassador.

    Harvard Law School professor Lawrence Tribe told the Washington Examiner that Sessions should be concerned about facing the same charge as Flynn.

    “Of course he should," Tribe said.

    But Harvard Law School professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz said he's not so sure, raising questions about proof of intent.

    In January, the same month Flynn misled the FBI, Sessions told senators in written and oral responses that he knew of no Trump campaign contacts with Russia and that he had none himself.

    “I’m not aware of any of those activities,” Sessions told Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., who asked if “anyone affiliated with the Trump campaign communicated with the Russian government in the course of this campaign.”

    Sessions added: “I did not have communications with the Russians.”

    In a written answer, Sessions told Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., “no,” he had not “been in contact with anyone connected to any part of the Russian government about the 2016 election, either before or after Election Day.”

    It later emerged that Sessions met with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak in his Senate office in September 2016, after they also met during the Republican National Convention in July 2016.

    Sessions defenders argue the questions were unclear. Justice Department spokeswoman Sarah Isgur Flores said there was “absolutely nothing misleading," and Sessions stressed he “never met with any Russian officials to discuss issues of the campaign.”

    Questions about the accuracy of Sessions’ testimony deepened, however, in October after Trump campaign adviser George Papadopolous pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI. Papadopolous reportedly said at a March 2016 meeting with Sessions that he could establish contact with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

    Sessions told lawmakers that he forgot about that meeting with Papadopolous.

    Lying to Congress is rarely prosecuted, but there are some recent examples.

    In 2007, second-ranking Interior Department official J. Steven Griles pleaded guilty to lying to senators about his links to lobbyist Jack Abramoff. Baseball player Miguel Tejada pleaded guilty to lying to Congress in 2009 after giving false testimony in 2005 about performance-enhancing drugs. Player Roger Clemens was acquitted in 2012 of similarly lying to Congress.

    Special counsel Robert Mueller, who is leading the investigation that resulted in Flynn's plea, has shown no qualms about using rarely enforced laws in his probe of Russia's links to Trump aides.

    Mueller's team dusted off the Foreign Agents Registration Act to indict former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort and assistant Rick Gates in October for pre-campaign work with Ukrainian politicians. There were fewer than 10 FARA prosecutions and just one conviction between 1966 and 2015, according to the Justice Department inspector general's office.

    Although it’s unclear what Sessions has told the FBI about his or the campaign's contact with Russia, Tribe said that his congressional testimony alone may be enough for a prosecution under the same law that Flynn admitted violating.

    “Very likely yes, assuming [there is] sufficiently persuasive proof that Sessions knew he was giving materially false and misleading answers,” Tribe said.

    Finding enough proof to win a conviction, however, may be difficult.

    “They would have to prove a direct knowing lie,” Dershowitz said, something that’s “hard to do.”

    Dershowitz said “I haven’t seen anything” that would offer enough proof. "He’s careful."

  2. MATT DRUDGES ASKS THE OBVIOUS

    Matt Drudge, editor and founder of the Internet news powerhouse Drudge Report, put the special counsel probe on notice Saturday.

    In a flurry of tweets, stark against an otherwise empty Twitter page (Drudge has a habit of deleting his prior tweets), the influential but reclusive conservative figure painted Robert Mueller and his Russia inquiry team as a farce.

    "Mueller’s secretive grand jury made up of residence from DC, where 91% voted for Hillary...," he began, referring to the grand jury Mueller put together to investigate possible collusion between the Trump campaign and the Kremlin.

    Mueller’s secretive grand jury made up of residence from DC, where 91% voted for Hillary...— MATT DRUDGE (@DRUDGE) December 3, 2017

    His tweet came a day after Mike Flynn, President Trump's former national security adviser, pleaded guilty in federal court to lying to the FBI about his talks with Russian officials. In the run-up to Friday's bombshell, prosecutors had canceled scheduled grand jury testimony related to Flynn. The grand jury in Washington already had indicted former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort and his former associate for crimes related to their lobbying work abroad.

    Drudge's brief Twitter rant then referred to a story reported by the Washington Examiner, about how Rep. Devin Nunes, chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, is threatening contempt of Congress in response to the FBI and Department of Justice keeping the committee in the dark over why Mueller kicked a key supervising FBI agent off the Trump-Russia investigation amid concerns of anti-Trump bias.

    "We know what happens when one lies to the FBI," Drudge said. "But what is the punishment when the FBI lies to us?"

    Turning his sights to former President Barack Obama, who is travelling around the world, meeting leaders in France, India, and China, Drudge brought up the archaic law that could mean trouble for Flynn.

    "Is citizen Obama violating the 'Logan act' when he lobbies foreign governments and world leaders against America’s current foreign policy?", Drudge queried.

    There has been chatter about Flynn possibly violating the Logan Act for talking with the Russian ambassador about sanctions while he was a private citizen during the presidential transition period. However, the grounds for what the 1799 law dictates would be a felony are untested as it has never been enforced.

    Drudge ended his Twitter train of thought musing on how Mueller will "eventually" interview Trump himself and that the "spectacle" should be "broadcast live" — an idea he has floated in the past.

      He has increased funds for the border but decreased funds and grants to local law enforcement. New York has been complaining since the Trump budget came out. It cuts counterterrorism funds, grants for fighting violence against women, funds for fighting right-wing domestic terrorism.

      So basically, they are concentrating on a group of people who have historically had a lower rate of crime and cutting funds for combatting those who are (I would also observe that crime statistics in Europe have little immediate relevance to the US).

      As of June 2015, right-wing attacks since the September 11 attacks (9/11) had claimed more lives (48) than attacks committed by jihadists (26).[38] Thereafter, jihadist terrorist attacks (the 2015 San Bernardino attack and the 2016 Orlando nightclub shooting) raised the Islamic extremist death toll above that caused by right-wing extremists. As of August 2017, the New America Foundation placed the number killed in terrorist attacks in the United States (since 9/11) as follows: 97 killed in jihadist terrorist attacks, 68 killed in far-right attacks, and 8 killed in black separatist/nationalist/supremacist attacks.[39] The politically conservative Daily Caller News Foundation using data from the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism (START), found 92% of all "ideologically motivated homicide incidents" committed in the United States from 2007 to 2016 were done "with a right-wing extremist or white supremacist motive".[40] According to the Government Accountability Office of the United States, 73% of violent extremist incidents that resulted in deaths since September 12, 2001 were caused by right wing extremists groups.[41][42]

      New America's tally shows that since September 11, 2001, incidents of right-wing terrorism have caused 68 deaths. Incidents causing death were:[39]

      Trump says he will follow the advice of his Interior Secretary, Gary Zinke, who has recommended reducing these monuments to 1/3 of their current size.

      You might recall the character of Zinke and how it reflects on Trump's choices for department heads.

      From the Huffingpost Post article by

      David Halperin, Contributor
      Attorney, advocate, writer at RepublicReport.org

      Updated Oct 25, 2017

      Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke Is A Disgrace

      It’s increasingly clear that Trump Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke has the awful ethics and values of, let’s say, a Donald Trump.

      Let’s count some of the ways:

      1. As reported just today, Zinke has been and remains active in funneling money to scam political committees that rip off elderly donors by taking their money and then mostly keeping it for executive and consultant salaries.

      2. As reported just yesterday, Zinke’s friend/neighbor’s two-person company somehow got a $300 million contract to repair Puerto Rico’s electrical infrastructure.

      3. As Secretary, Zinke has repeatedly used private charter planes, including a charter flight from Las Vegas to his Montana hometown on a plane owned by fossil fuel company executives, and charters between Caribbean islands ― all on routes where commercial flights were available.

      4. Zinke concealed as a congressman from Montana that he’d been living in California, not Montana.

      5. Zinke punitively reassigned many of his agency’s senior employees ― for example moving Interior’s chief climate policy expert to the royalty collection division; he also named only political appointees, including several ex-industry lobbyists, to a Department committee on personnel issues, ignoring that career staff are supposed to be part of the process.

      6. Zinke, in a speech last month to an oil industry group, praised hydraulic fracturing, which has poisoned the water in communities across the U.S. and poses tremendous risks of gas leaks and increased global warming. “Fracking,” he said, “is proof that God’s got a good sense of humor and he loves us.”

      7. Zinke has proposed to the White House that several national monuments be dramatically shrunk and opened for mining and drilling.

      8. Zinke requires his security staff to hoist a special secretarial flag on the Interior Department’s roof whenever he’s in the building, and to remove it when Zinke departs. In addition, as the Washington Post reported, “He has commissioned commemorative coins with his name on them to give to staff and visitors, but the cost to taxpayers is unclear.”

      9. Zinke last month told an oil industry group that nearly one-third of Interior Department employees are not loyal to him and Trump. He might have been understating matters, depending on your definition of loyalty. Probably more than a third now think that Ryan Zinke is a disgrace.

    Anti-Trump bias at FBI a fatal flaw of Mueller investigation
    By Rick Moran

    The credibility of Robert Mueller's Russian collusion investigation of Donald Trump took two huge hits in the last 24 hours, as it is now an open question whether the FBI can conduct an unbiased probe into the allegations against the president.

    First, it's been revealed that one of Mueller's chief investigators was fired for exchanging anti-Trump texts with a mistress who is a top lawyer in the bureau. Peter Strzok, a former deputy director for counterintelligence at the FBI was removed earlier this year and now, the inspector general is looking into other "politically sensitive cases" that Strzok was involved in, including the Hillary Clinton email investigation. Strzok was also FBI liaison with the CIA.

    Also, House Intelligence Committee chairman Devin Nunes issued an angry letter to the FBI demanding to know why he and his committee were kept in the dark about the firing of Strzok. Taken together, the picture that emerges of the Mueller probe is one of a fatal anti-Trump bias that should disqualify Mueller - and the FBI - from carrying out what is supposed to be a non-partisan, independent, and unbiased investigation.

    Byron York:

    House Intelligence Committee chairman Devin Nunes has issued an angry demand to the FBI and Department of Justice to explain why they kept the committee in the dark over the reason Special Counsel Robert Mueller kicked a key supervising FBI agent off the Trump-Russia investigation....

    2. The Odds Of Impeachment Are Dropping

      ....Among Republicans, Trump’s approval rating has held remarkably steady. The week Mueller was named, according to Gallup, Trump’s GOP support stood at 84 percent. In the days after Donald Trump Jr. was revealed to have written, “I love it” in response to a Russian offer of dirt on Hillary Clinton, it reached 87 percent. In Gallup’s last poll, taken in late November, it was 81 percent. Trump’s approval rating among Republicans has not dipped below 79 percent since he took office. None of the revelations from Mueller’s investigation—nor any of the other outrageous things Trump has done—has significantly undermined his support among the GOP rank and file…

      Could Mueller or some enterprising journalist uncover revelations so epic that they shake Trump’s hold on the GOP, and give Republican senators cover to support his removal? It’s unlikely. After all, the vast majority of Alabama Republicans still support Roy Moore. Most conservatives consume pro-Trump media, which will downplay or distort virtually anything Mueller or the mainstream press discovers. And the more aggressively Democrats push for Trump’s removal, the easier it will be for Breitbart and Sean Hannity to rally Republicans against a “left-wing coup.”....
