Obstruction of Justice - FindLaw
From that page:
"Obstruction of justice is defined by federal statute as any "interference with the orderly administration of law and justice" and governed by
18 U.S.C. §§ 1501-1521. Federal code identifies more than 20 specific types of obstruction, including
"Obstruction of proceedings before departments, agencies, and committees" (
18 U.S.C. § 1505), the specific code section cited in the Nixon and Clinton articles of impeachment."
Ooow. You sure you want to open that can of worms?
1509:
Whoever, by threats or force, willfully prevents, obstructs, impedes, or interferes with, or willfully attempts to prevent, obstruct, impede, or interfere with, the due exercise of rights or the performance of duties under any order, judgment, or decree of a court of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both.

1519:
Whoever knowingly alters, destroys, mutilates, conceals, covers up, falsifies, or makes a false entry in any record, document, or tangible object with the intent to impede, obstruct, or influence the investigation or proper administration of any matter within the jurisdiction of any department or agency of the United States or any case filed under title 11, or in relation to or contemplation of any such matter or case, shall be fined under this title, imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both.

The point is, unless you are out their demanding the prosecution of Hillary and the gang, your hypocrisy is well noted, as well as your false indignation.
and conspiring with a hostile foreign entity to influence an election
Are you talking about that "thing of value" campaign contributions regulation at 11 CFR 110? That's a really weak angle that will likely get nowhere, given the that a broad interpretation and application of "thing of value" is necessary to snare Trump. Under such a broad interpretation and application, ANY communication with a foreign national during an election could be deemed a "thing of value." A mere photo-op with a foreign national could be valuable in an election, as it could sway votes.
But, even under such a broad interpretation, there is no evidence anywhere that Trump or his team received any "thing of value" from a foreign national.
This whole thing is stupid.
The election is over. It's not going to change anything. Focus on forcing Trump to do what is best for Americans and stop trying to make Pence the Commander-in-Chief.
