I think cnn reported that there are 7 persons now from his campaign that have either forgotten or sandbagged their meetings or contacts with russians.

Yeah even though they have him dead to rights on a treason crime, I think prosecutors will offer him a deal if he agrees to turn states witness for the prosecution. He'll do a little time in Club Fed or maybe even a suspended sentence.

He is effectively immune from federal prosecution. They all are. That's the problem with our system, it concentrates too much power in the president, the power to pardon. It's why like every other democratic country in the world uses a parliamentary system with a prime minister.

This is not good. Don Jr may be ****ing stupid, but he's extremely charismatic. He will come across well in this given Hannity will not actually press him on anything important. Remember how well Don jr did during the Republican National Convention?

How is this not a smoking gun? Does this story appear as big to you guys as it does to me?

Yes good game as game is over. TRUMP will be forced to resign and we'll have President Pence soon. I do wonder about one thing though.

Russian Lawyer Background

Quote:

By her own account, the Russian lawyer that managed to slide her way into Trump Tower last year and meet with President Donald Trump’s eldest son, his campaign manager and son-in-law is a former Moscow prosecutor who had been denied a visa to enter the United States.

Natalia Veselnitskaya filed an affidavit in a federal case in New York describing how she managed to get special permission to enter the United States after the visa denial to help represent a Russian company called Prevezon Holdings owned by the Russian businessman Denis Katsyv in a case brought against it by U.S. prosecutors.

So who in the Obama administration gave her the special permission to enter the USA? We'll see what the affidavit states I suspect soon enough.

Shame on Obama, letting so many nefarious Russians into the country and letting them scam the Trumps with impunity.

Although adios's posts remind me "we did it, so what?" may be selling the right short, they may be going for "yeah we did it, but deep state Democrat trickster set us up!" defense. That seems sensational and dumb enough.

Wanna bet? Low stakes so that it's still basically a freeroll for me. Straight up bet that trump is still president by the end of august?

Don't want to kill action but this is chump stuff. C'mon boys we're gamblers here. The real bet is if Trump is still President in August 2025.

Not sure if its of any interest, but Don JR is on the front page of nearly all news sites in Israel.

I assume nothing will come out of it, but at least it's getting some major attention here in Mini-Trump land.
