LtCol Vindman's Opening Statement

[AzogtheDefiler]

executive privilege is null & void when it is used to cover illegal activity.

It's funny when you Dems pretend to be lawyers.

blocking subpoenas, refusing to turn over docs, & claiming exec privilege to stop people from testifying is no way to prove one's innocence, son. if donny were innocent - he'd be begging to be under the microscope.

Well, except there was evidence of "collusion".

Summary of Major Findings

The redacted Mueller Report documents a series of activities that show strong evidence of collusion. Or, more precisely, it provides significant evidence that Trump Campaign associates coordinated with, cooperated with, encouraged, or gave support to the Russia/WikiLeaks election interference activities. The Report documents the following actions (each of which is analyzed in detail in Part II):

1. Trump was receptive to a Campaign national security adviser’s (George Papadopoulos) pursuit of a back channel to Putin.

2. Kremlin operatives provided the Campaign a preview of the Russian plan to distribute stolen emails.

3. The Trump Campaign chairman and deputy chairman (Paul Manafort and Rick Gates) knowingly shared internal polling data and information on battleground states with a Russian spy; and the Campaign chairman worked with the Russian spy on a pro-Russia “peace” plan for Ukraine.

4. The Trump Campaign chairman periodically shared internal polling data with the Russian spy with the expectation it would be shared with Putin-linked oligarch, Oleg Deripaska.

5. Trump Campaign chairman Manafort expected Trump’s winning the presidency would mean Deripaska would want to use Manafort to advance Deripaska’s interests in the United States and elsewhere.

6. Trump Tower meeting: (1) On receiving an email offering derogatory information on Clinton coming from a Russian government official, Donald Trump Jr. “appears to have accepted that offer;” (2) members of the Campaign discussed the Trump Tower meeting beforehand; (3) Donald Trump Jr. told the Russians during the meeting that Trump could revisit the issue of the Magnitsky Act if elected.

7. A Trump Campaign official told the Special Counsel he “felt obliged to object” to a GOP Platform change on Ukraine because it contradicted Trump’s wishes; however, the investigation did not establish that Gordon was directed by Trump.

8. Russian military hackers may have followed Trump’s July 27, 2016 public statement “Russia if you’re listening …” within hours by targeting Clinton’s personal office for the first time.

9. Trump requested campaign affiliates to get Clinton’s emails, which resulted in an individual apparently acting in coordination with the Campaign claiming to have successfully contacted Russian hackers.

10. The Trump Campaign—and Trump personally—appeared to have advanced knowledge of future WikiLeaks releases.

11. The Trump Campaign coordinated campaign-related public communications based on future WikiLeaks releases.

12. Michael Cohen, on behalf of the Trump Organization, brokered a secret deal for a Trump Tower Moscow project directly involving Putin’s inner circle, at least until June 2016.

13. During the presidential transition, Jared Kushner and Eric Prince engaged in secret back channel communications with Russian agents. (1) Kushner suggested to the Russian Ambassador that they use a secure communication line from within the Russian Embassy to speak with Russian Generals; and (2) Prince and Kushner’s friend Rick Gerson conducted secret back channel meetings with a Putin agent to develop a plan for U.S.-Russian relations.

14. During the presidential transition, in coordination with other members of the Transition Team, Michael Flynn spoke with the Russian Ambassador to prevent a tit for tat Russian response to the Obama administration’s imposition of sanctions for election interference; the Russians agreed not to retaliate saying they wanted a good relationship with the incoming administration.

why pray tell would he want to snuff it 'eh?

oh well - now a judge has ordered it to be completely unredacted & turned over to congress. no doubt that will be repealed & probably will go to the SC. hmmmm the donny the innocent would not have had any of that held back if it was gonna exonerate himself.

i find it amusing that when you are hit with undisputed facts - it's because those giving them are triggered... first of all, would you say that to any other criminal guilty of the same kinda crimes? take embezzlement for example... would you just fire a worker you suspected of that & not bother trying to find out if they stole from you or should they be held responsible?

please.

due to a stupid policy - not a rule - DOJ policy follows the concept that a sitting prez can't be prosecuted in a court of law - that is why mueller punted. congeress has been trying to get the unredacted grand jury docs from the start & barr refused to have it released.

why pray tell would he want to snuff it 'eh?

oh well - now a judge has ordered it to be completely unredacted & turned over to congress. no doubt that will be repealed & probably will go to the SC. hmmmm the donny the innocent would not have had any of that held back if it was gonna exonerate himself.

Why are you so triggered? Let the voters decide in 2020? It is a year away.

i find it amusing that when you are hit with undisputed facts - it's because those giving them are triggered... first of all, would you say that to any other criminal guilty of the same kinda crimes? take embezzlement for example... would you just fire a worker you suspected of that & not bother trying to find out o they can be held responsible?

please.

Private enterprise is different. 62mil plus voted for the man. Alan Dershowitz, a Democrat and the preeminent constitution expert and Harvard Law Professor Emeritus says there is not enough to impeach. Let the voters decide in 2020. I have stated this to you 100x. Obviously this is not cut and dry as many dispute the facts so the the voters decided. If as you say he is guilty the voters will vote him out. Seems simple. Chill.

& mueller never said that there wasn't any conspiracy. he said there was 'insufficient evidence' to conclude there was due to the destruction of docs & evidence & people taking the fifth. congress is now gonna find out all the goodies hidden to them plus the names of those who didn't want to incriminate themselves. i'm willing to be one of 'em is traitor tot.

An investigator and prosecutor always state this. That is all they can do. Is there enough evidence or not. They never exonerate. Only a judge and or jury may exonerate.

My mind is irrelevant. The country would go into upheaval and the next President will be under a microscope. I don't want a country to be like that. Hell Bush lied about WMDs and cost us billions of $$ and 1000s of lives and no one blinks an eye. This is TDS lunacy. Just vote him out or live with it. Elections have consequences. I am not trying to change your opinion. I am only stating mine. Nancy Pelosi is super corrupt. IDC what she says.

ha! where you been? the country is already upheaved. elections have consequences & so does the dereliction of duty. i am no fan of nancy pelosi & lost all respect for her the day she said impeachment was 'off the table' when it came to W. but she has regained some of it back by going after donny. huh - imagine how much resolve she must have in her heart to find out the truth about tinkles criminality when she didn't think W. was impeachable .

Nancy is a proven liar. I believe elections should decide the way the country goes not TDS laden persons like yourself and Adam Schiff. When people cried about BHO, I told them to vote him out or live with it. Elections have consequences.

I actually disagree with regard to Azog. There are absolutely a lot of Deplorables on this board. And while he seems to like Trump (whether he actually likes him because he likes him, or whether he's an 'anybody but Hillary/Dem" kinds guy, I don't know.) But I find Azog pretty measured in most of his responses. And he does joke a bit, too...

I agree with that, but you need a decent electoral system. The current one sucks donkey balls. It really does.

No system is perfect it seems. I am not sure what the correct answer is.
