Bombshell new evidence offers ‘some of the strongest’ proof yet implicating Trump in obstruction: report

Article on the excellent Raw Story, which cites a complete transcript at New York Review of Books offers the most damning evidence yet that trumpo knew...

An explosive new report from independent journalist Murray Waas published in the New York Review of Books claims that special counsel Robert Mueller is in possession of highly incriminating evidence that implicates President Donald Trump in obstruction of justice.

Waas writes that the previously undisclosed evidence — which his sources say includes “highly confidential White House records and testimony by some of President Trump’s own top aides” — offers “some of the strongest evidence to date implicating the president of the United States in an obstruction of justice.”

In fact, sources who have reviewed the evidence now think it is “all but inevitable” that Mueller will deliver a report to the United States Department of Justice that will make a case that the president broke the law.

The central piece of evidence regards former FBI Director James Comey’s claim that Trump had asked him to drop the FBI’s case into former national security adviser Michael Flynn, whom Trump had fired in early 2017 after he lied to the FBI about his conversations with then-Russian ambassador to the United States Sergey Kislyak during the presidential transition period after the 2016 election.

No wonder his cries of "witch hunt" and the "defense" by the senile Giuliani are getting so shrill and disconnected from reality.

And the continued deflections to try and send focus elsewhere. We can only hope that it's a matter of time until the treasonous fool is gone.

Here it comes - "The President is well within his rights to fire anyone he wants, even if it impedes an investigation. And even if it WAS obstruction of justice (and it wasn't) the President can't be charged while in office."

And remember - collusion isn't a crime, and besides: NO COLLUSION! (Conspiracy, though... well, again, the President can't be charged, so call off the witch hunt!)

Jebus?! Are we becoming a news aggregator with sensational OP headlines to go with it?

Trump obstructed justice. There is no doubt. The only question is how easy of a case can Mueller make of it... and on how many counts of obstruction can he make.

If the Republicans control the Congress this goes nowhere.

If being corrupt kept you out of office the ranks of the Republicans would be decimated.
