john brennan agrees w me.

in all the hand ringing about whether the mueller report will be a bombshell or a nothingburger, i have not had a moments angst. i figured that all those sealed indictments, however many of them there are, would land at the same time.

john brennan just said the same on rachel.

John Brennan has been a spot-on guide to this morass for more than 2 years now - Here's hoping.

Said so earlier this evening and laid out a brief set of facts for why I felt that way.
https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1016&pid=227325

The key thing is what the Republicans do.
To date, they have enabled Trump.
For quite some time, they've lost their moral compass.

That is where the uncertainty lies with me.

It's sad because they should be Americans first. But to enable Trump and take Russian money through the NRA for example, they've lost their way in that regard. They're only out for themselves.

In spire of my confidence in Mueller, I do not have as much faith in this to be resolved properly in the near term. I certainly hope it will be. But more likely to come are a bunch of Republicans games to thwart or trick the will of the people again.

from the time the gang of 8 was briefed, it was only a matter of time.
at some point their interests diverge.

when all the facts are everywhere, they will have to jump ship. and cowards they are, they will.

ps- my prediction re cohen is that he implicates spanky in epstein's crimes, and paying off minors.

6. if he was involved in paying off the young girl who sued Trump

that was tied to Epstein - that might be hard to get if he was acting as Trump's lawyer and they settled out of court.

I think that girl was frightened



Whether she took money to settle is a question.

But I'll take anything that cuts this evil prick down to size.

Ari said nothing. I am getting so tired of this meme. If he is working in collusion with Russia (he is) then he fat orange ass needs to go to jail, IMMEDIATELY!
