webfact Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Trump calls for all cases stemming from Mueller probe to be 'thrown out' FILE PHOTO: U.S. President Donald Trump walks to Air Force One after the NASCAR Daytona 500 in Daytona Beach, Florida, U.S., February 16, 2020. REUTERS/Erin Scott WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday called for all cases stemming from Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election to be "thrown out" and suggested he could bring a lawsuit over the matter. Trump made the comments hours before a telephone conference call between lawyers for the president's former adviser, Roger Stone and prosecutors. Stone was convicted on seven counts of lying to the U.S. Congress, obstruction and witness tampering. Prosecutors initially called for Stone to receive a prison sentence of between seven to nine years in the case but, after Trump publicly called the recommendation "unfair," the Justice Department scaled it back. That sent shock waves through Washington and prompted all four prosecutors to quit the case and one to quit the agency. "Everything having to do with this fraudulent investigation is ... badly tainted and, in my opinion, should be thrown out," Trump said in a series of tweets. "If I wasn't President, I'd be suing everyone all over the place ... BUT MAYBE I STILL WILL," Trump continued. Asked about Trump's tweets on Tuesday in an interview with Fox News Channel, White House spokeswoman Stephanie Grisham alleged corruption and raised questions about the jury, adding: "He's frustrated, obviously, and who knows what he'll end up doing." Stone was one of several former Trump associates to have been charged in the Mueller probe and one of only two to go to trial instead of pleading guilty. Trump's tweets on Tuesday morning came days after the nation's top law enforcement official, Attorney General Bill Barr, said Trump's tweets made it "impossible" to do his job. In a letter https://medium.com/@dojalumni/doj-alumni-statement-on-the-events-surrounding-the-sentencing-of-roger-stone-c2cb75ae4937 on Monday, more than two thousand former Justice Department officials criticised the behaviour by Barr and Trump around the Roger Stone case and said their actions "require Mr. Barr to resign."

Popular Post Boon Mee Posted February 18, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 18, 2020 Bogus fake 'crimes' and it is most appropriate to throw out the trumped-up BS used in the attempted soft coup.

Popular Post Tippaporn Posted February 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 19, 2020 (edited) Well, I did say it in some now forgotten thread long ago. If the basis of the Mueller investigation turns out to be fraudulent then absolutely all cases related to that probe would by extension be null and void. In other words, any Mueller investigation of any other individual should never have occurred in the first place. I do believe it will come to that. And rightly so.

Popular Post Chomper Higgot Posted February 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 19, 2020 Of course Trump wants crimes uncovered by Mueller to be ‘Thrown Out’. There are over ten indictable offenses listed in the Mueller report awaiting Trump’s departure from the WH, at which time he’ll be indicted. 6 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Tug Posted February 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 19, 2020 Nothing fraudulent in it they would have been derelict not to have looked I hope they still are what was and is was Barr’s response and misrepresentation of the findings and trumps lie about nothing found 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post neeray Posted February 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 19, 2020 Thank you Mr President. Thank you for meddling even deeper and foiling the American political and legal systems even more. Most certainly, you will get what's coming to you. Please excuse me now, I need to prepare the pop corn and cracker jacks. 3 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not me and I'm no apologist I'm neutral but call out the injustice or bias as I see it. Trump is often a buffoon and as I'm pro-choice, pro-weed, pro climate etc. I can't be called a supporter. Anyway the Dems would never support a white Billionaire for POTUS would they? I mean they are not hypocrites right? oh wait... 2 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No difference as Trump too flipped.

You assume Bloomberg a) has the support of anyone here, b) is the candidate. Not being an American does not preclude you being a Trump supporter. He relies very much on online support to spread his lies and mask the reality of his criminality. The online trolls doing this support work for Trump are by no means all Americans. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
