Wrong.
‘Representative Jerrold Nadler, who’s in line to head the Judiciary Committee when Democrats take control of the House in January, said Thursday that the list of Mueller successes was long and damning.
“The special counsel has now secured guilty pleas from President Trump’s personal attorney, his campaign manager, his deputy campaign manager, a foreign policy adviser to his campaign, and his national security adviser,” Nadler said in a statement. “The president can pretend that this investigation has nothing to do with him and nothing to do with Russia, but these indictments speak for themselves.”’

Ah, ask Rep. Nadler if any of those "guilty pleas" have anything to do with "collusion" between the Trump campaign and the Russian government to affect our elections. If they don't...then the entire Mueller investigation HAS been a witch hunt!
At least 3.
Papodoploous plead guilty to lying to the FBI about contacts between the Trump team and Russia. Papodopolous admitted that he had been instructed by senior Trump camaign officials to go to Russia to collect dirt on Hillary including 'thousands of emails' from representatives of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Cohen plead guilty to lying to congress about business deals between the Trump team and Russia. Where the Trump team secured financing for Trump Tower Moscow from a VTB bank, the second largest in Russia.....and under sanction from the US. With the Trump team even appealing to Putin personally for assistance.
With this same Cohen personally delivering a letter to then National Security Advisor Flynn to lift those *exact* sanctions that had been levied on VTB bank in Russia. And Flynn in secret contacts with Russia to lift those sanctions.....and then lying about it to the FBI. And worse, Flynn instructed his Deputy National Advisor MacFarland to lie as well.
With Flynn pleading guilty to lying to federal authorities about contacts between the Trump campaign and Russia.
With Mueller honing in on Corsi and Stone and their secret contacts with Julian Assange in coordinating the release of emails stolen by the Russians. With Corsi predictably lying about it.
And federal authorities in possession of wiretaps delviered to them by Spanish authorities in which Don Jr. was caught trying to set up yet ANOTHER secret meeting, this time with Russian Intelligence Handler Alexander Torshin.
And that's just what we know of.
Let's take this one at a time. George Papadopolous pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI.
Lying to FBI....
about what? About contacts between Russia and the Trump team. Where Papodopolous was ordered by top Trump campaign officials
to go to Russia and collect dirt on hillary (including thousands of emails) from representatives of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Its all in his his indictment.
Papodapolous was literally ordered by Trump campaign officials to go to Russia to get info from the Russian government to benefit the Trump campaign. And you're still claiming there was no evidence of collusion with the Russian government and the Trump campaign?
Um, wow.
He was never found guilty of collusion in any way shape or form. He drunkenly bragged about having access to thousands of Hillary Clinton emails held by Russians and then lied about THAT to the FBI!
That's not what Papodopolous' indictment says. This wasn't a 'drunken comment'. This was a coordinated series of plans and communications with representatives of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs that spanned months. With instructions from the Trump team to go to Russia and collect dirt on Hillary from the Russian government.
Your characterization is contradicted by the indictment....which is a far more reliable source than you citing yourself.
Michael Flynn has not pleaded guilty to collusion either. He's pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about having conversations with Russian government officials prior to Trump being sworn in. He has never been found guilty of collusion in any way shape or form.
Michael Flynn plead guilty to lying to the FBI about conversations with the Russian government.....about what? About lifting the *exact* sanctions that VTB bank was under, the very bank that Trump's team had used to secured financing for Moscow Trump Tower. A project they had appealed to Vladimir Putin to *personally* to facilitate.
With the letter outlining the end of sanctions that VTB was under delivered to Flynn by hand.....by Michael Cohen. The man who lied to congress to cover up the continuation of the Moscow Trump Tower deal. And of course, Trump lied his ass off about the same deal.
Yet despite even *more* lies from the Trump team on contact with the Russians.....you insist that there is no evidence that the Trump team colluded with the Russians?
Again, wow.
