Mueller: Manafort associate had Russian intelligence ties during 2016 campaign - Polidicks

So what's next now that the "NoCoLlUsIoN!!!" narrative is looking busto? "There was no Russian interference " "Ok, there was, but there was no collusion" "Ok, there was but I didn't know!" "Ok, I did, but Hillary"

Remember: Mentioning Hillary in any way means you automatically win the argument. Somehow.

I disagree. That's a tactic that Hillary would do. Everyone knows that you shouldn't do anything Hillary does. /s

"But the Democrats did it too! Didn't you know Obama had a Russian friend in 2013?"

Did you ever hear the tragedy of Seth Conrad Rich of the DNC?

"Obama even congratulated Putin for winning a sham election once! You can't trust these Dems!"

I thought not. It's not a story the liberals would tell you.

He could save America from globalism, but not himself.

Could I...learn this ability? *slow turn* "Not from a democrat."

Yo CNN is reporting that Mueller's team told Gates they didn't need his help in the Manafort case and were flipping him to get evidence of wider collusion by the Trump campaign https://www.cnn.com/2018/03/29/politics/mueller-gates-russia-investigation-contacts/index.html

Well, I think we can guess the rough outlines of what was so valuable to Mueller that he dropped basically all of Gates' charges in exchange. The report and impeachment recommendation can't come soon enough. This wouldn't be quite so concerning if Republicans in Congress weren't so lackadasical about instituting a bill protecting Mueller and if Trump hadn't just fired the last guy on his legal team who was pushing him away from firing Mueller, and by the way Trump is looking to replace him with yes-men who'll enable his adolescent autocratic desires. Donnie Gigantic Hands is tired of people telling him no.

He should get used to it. If he gets stuffed into prison where he belongs then he'll be getting a whole lot more of it.

Trump: YOU'RE FIRED! Bubba: *cackles* You have no power here!

I just had a thought, if the kids don't get busted. Will they just throw the father under the bus and blame him entirely?

"We have nukes right, why can't we use them??" I'm somewhat shocked we don't see more further right leaning politicians in the US calling for all these services like the FBI to be disbanded tbh, "small gooberman" and all that.

Well they don't seem any less scummy and underhanded than Trump himself so it really wouldn't surprise me.

Makes sense, really. The moment that I saw that Mueller had dropped all charges against Gates, I knew he had brought them something much bigger than more evidence against Manafort. They've already got Manafort dead to rights on a prison sentence that will last him the rest of his life. They don't need Gates for that, and wouldn't have extended full immunity just to pile the shit on Manafort a little deeper. Only way Gates gets a deal like that is if he brought something much bigger to the table.

Imagine the spoonfed, struggle-free Donald, growing up living in a gated mansion, only to be taken down by Gates..

When colluding with Russia, gates close you.

He'll be spending most of his time telling other people no, if you catch my drift.

The most infuriating part is looking at the comments in reply to these kinds of headlines. A majority of the Republicans that take their time to make a post haven given up completely trying to justify it. So many are saying "who cares" or "it doesn't matter" and "fake news". They don't care that this ship is sinking, only that the liberals are going down with them. Deplorable.
