Holy cow...NYT has transition team emails that show that they not only knew Flynn was in communication with the Russians, but has this doozy of a quote:

Wait would Ronald Reagan think of this? Saint Ronny would be screaming for the Orange Clown's head on a pike if he were alive.

Sadly Republicans today don't even like Reagan. The Republican party is now mostly made up of people who used to be Democrats because they thought they were oppressed by big business, and Trump made them come to the Republican party because recently they've felt oppressed by women, minorities, AND big business. It's sad really.

I'm very suspicious is that email, but if it is legitimate, it is absolutely huge.

They are too busy trashing Democrats who might run in 2020 against their cult leader.

I agree that "USA election" is weird wording, but one reason it might have been used is that there had been legislative elections in Russia just a month and a half before our election, so depending on the wording of the sentence, some clarification might have been needed.

Trump this morning:

Quote
You must be logged in to read this quote.

So according to this...

1. Flynn lied (including to the FBI) about something that Trump says was lawful.

2. Trump knew what Flynn was doing, and only fired him for lying about it.

Somewhere in the White House, Trump's lawyers are sending out for more Maalox.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but coupled with Trump's efforts to halt the Russia investigation, couldn't this be used as evidence for charges of obstruction of justice?

The thing is, obstruction charges probably martyr him. His supporters will think there was nothing there so they got him on a technicality.

ANYTHING that ends his time in office will martyr him among his supporters. Resigning during a tantrum. Dying peacefully in his sleep. Losing a bid for re-election by double-digits. We CANNOT let our nation be held hostage to the likely bad actions of the deplorables.  I do not support any sort of coup or anything like it, because as horrible as Trump is, such an event would do even more damage to our democracy. But we should move ahead at full steam on any lawful means of removing him (and destroying the Gross Old Pedophiles he leads).

This is true. I know "Republicans" who say stuff like 'Reagan was a horrible president because he gave amnesty to illegals' or think Paul Ryan's not a conservative because he's not hard enough on immigration.

If Barry Goldwater were alive today, he'd ing be a Democrat.

Especially adding the periods between the letters.

This will either turn out to be a conspiracy theory that only liberals believe or bona fide evidence that Russia pretty much funds all of the alt-Right players in this country from personhood tweakers to open-carry nuts.

Trump is now tweeting about Hillary Clinton and "the FBI, its reputation is in Tatters - worst in History!"

Sad!

Incidentally, what are they crowing about on Faux Noise: Uranium One? Benghazi? Emails? Cheeseburger emojis?

The amount of crap that he gets away with is just ridiculous. And to think there was a time when the deplorables went into a coma when Obama wore a tan suit.

He will be literally tweeting that nasty crap as the FBI bursts into his office and arrests him.

They'd probably just flaunt it because they know a pardon would come their way

Now we know why McGahn was so scared of being interviewed by Mueller, this is some pretty strong evidence of obstruction of justice by Trump even if you ignore the recent tweet (note that attorney-client privilege doesn't apply here):

He’d be called as a witness either way.
