Title: Trump under investigation for obstruction of justice

The special counsel appointed to investigate possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia is now looking into whether President Trump sought to obstruct justice in the investigation, The Washington Post reported.

In the wake of Trump's decision to fire FBI Director James Comey last month, the Department of Justice appointed former FBI Director Robert Mueller as special counsel to oversee the FBI's probe into Russia's role in the 2016 election. The investigation began last summer and encompasses various Trump and his associates' alleged ties to Moscow, as well as the Kremlin's role in mounting a hacking attempt to influence  the presidential race in Trump's favor.

Trump claimed, and Comey later affirmed, that Comey assured him he was not personally under FBI investigation. That has since changed, according to the Post.

Questions about whether Trump attempted to obstruct justice have swirled following Comey's testimony last week to the Senate that the president directed him in February to end the FBI's investigation into former national security adviser Michael Flynn.

Following the Post's report, Trump's outside attorney slammed the FBI for releasing information about the ongoing investigation.

“The FBI leak of information regarding the resident is outrageous, inexcusable and illegal," said Kasowitz spokesperson Mark Corallo.

The problem in DC right now is that Republicans won't protect the President. If they did, this would be over now.

The Republicans eat their own. Meaning if the GOP was behind Trump, Mueller would never have been selected. Why would you select someone who was an FBI director during the years of the Bush WH and partially the Obama WH?

The Republicans eat their own.

The reason they do it is because at the core of their power: Ryan, McConnell, McCain - are paid agents of a certain economic class. To sit in office they have to periodically deceive enough other people to vote for them (and they do it by stampeding people through lies and fear), but when in office, they betray those people (through inaction). The only people they zealously defend and whose interests they advanced are the super-rich element who give them their campaign contributions, access and support.

Everything else can go to weeds, but as long as the estate tax gets struck down, those Republicans will have achieved their OBJECTIVE, which is to zealously guard the interest of the super-rich.

Now, the problem is that there are great number of naive Republicans who believe that they are serving the country, or the middle class, or the working class, etc. Trump is one of them.

The Republicans of power eat these people not because of Republican cannibalism, but because the REAL Republican Party is the party of the rich, and these middle class guys that rise up and get an office, are not connected and don't represent the rich, and advocate agendas of middle class economics that are not in the interests of the rich. So the Republican Party protects its ultimate wealth and power base by throwing these Republicans who don't understand that they are elected to serve the super rich under the bus.

They aren't eating their own. Trump isn't one of their own. The Republicans focused on conservatism or other ideology are not their own. They are, rather, necessary idiots to get the votes of the middle class, so that the party of the rich have enough cover to enact and protect their REAL ultimate agenda: which is slashing taxes and regulations specifically on the super rich, while shifting the tax base down on the rest of the country, and using the regulatory state to crush out competition to the monopoly-seeking super rich.

Duped rube movement Republicans become very angry when the truth is shown to them, and they attack the messenger.

Duped rube movement Republicans also blame shift - focusing on the Republicans.

Essentially, the Republican voter - not the super rich, but the sort of guys who post on chat boards - are like 300-pounders who think they are doing something positive for themselves when they order a diet Coke with their Bic Mac and fries. The congestive heart failure continues to build, but they cannot break their addiction to that which is bad for them, they refuse to face the truth, and they attack whoever tries to change their views.

"Conservatism" just degenerates into stubborn, blind "stuck on stupid", and thinks that having a stash of guns will somehow protect them against "enemies", never recognizing that the enemy is the people at the top of THEIR OWN CHOSEN SIDE.

You're goofy as hell today.

I know lots and lots of people who voted for Trump. None of them are close to 300 lbs. I don't drink diet coke and I don't know anyone who does. My wife used to but she drinks coke like me now.

Assinine statement. Well it is. You can bitch and moan but I have my opinion too. Just like you do.

I know lots and lots of people who voted for Trump.

Yep, you know me, for example.

The Republican Party has all of the power in Washington - literally all of it - both Houses of Congress, the Executive Branch, the Supreme Court. They control 35 of the states too.

And yet they cannot seem to take charge of anything.

Obama never had that kind of concentration of power, and neither did Clinton, and yet they managed to push through a great deal of their agenda. And they have still managed to avoid indictment. Obama obscured his personal history and birth record successfully for eight years, and even with Republicans in charge, he STILL obscures it - and they don't release the information.

Trump does not have all of the power: the Republicans have to cooperate with him.

But what are they doing? Holding hearings! The Speaker of the House and the Senate Majority Leader can stop those things cold, shut them down. Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi would NEVER have permitted President Obama and his cabinet to be vilified, hauled before Congress and put through an inquisition on THEIR watch.

But the Republicans are doing it to Trump.

Obama's attorney general never would have permitted a special prosecutor to be hired against Obama. Not ever.

And certainly once it was clear there was no evidence of the central charge (collusion with the Russians), no Democrat Attorney General would have permitted the special prosecution to CONTINUE.

But Jeff Sessions spinelessly recused himself, and the underlings STILL press forth with it.

It's the Republican Party that is knifing Trump in the back.

But I get the mailers and the e-mails from the GOP, and they talk about Pelosi and Schumer. Pelosi and Schumer are POWERLESS. You can BET that if Pelosi were the Speaker, Trump would have ALREADY BEEN INDICTED, but that if it were a Democrat President, there would be no hearings at all.

The Republicans, instead, continue their war against the Republican base. See, they wanted Jeb, and the People did not. The People wanted Trump, and the Republicans are as determined as the Democrats to destroy Trump, to put the Republican rank-and-file back in its place.

The net result of this is foreseeable: the Democrats will sweep to power, and when they do, the Republicans will never get back up again. The Democrats have been taken to the very edge before, and each time, when they sprang back, they LEARNED from the experience and upped their game.

The Republicans TALKED about going nuclear when W was the President, but they blocked. But Democrats, having nearly lost the mid-level of the judiciary during W's term to the nuclear option, went nuclear during Obama's, to shore up their control for a generation.

Now the Republicans went nuclear, but limited it to just the Supreme Court seat.

If the Democrats get back in power without 61 seats in the Senate, you can bet they will go nuclear to impose their whole agenda. They will figure that if they get their whole agenda, it will give them such an advantage they'll never lose power again.

And they're probably right about that.

The Republicans - if they are right about their policies - could ensure the same thing. But they'd rather destroy Trump.

Idiots.

Isn't that how it's been for the last 30 years, at least. There's a phrase for it now, "virtue posing". The Dems like to virtue pose that they are protecting the poor and the environment, so they need absolute power (ask any D voter). The R's like to virtue pose that they are fair to everyone, so they give way when they have power.

The truth is that they are both working for the same bosses, playing good-cop bad-cop to extract as much as possible from us.

But the Democrats create social programs that do give quite a bit back to the people at large. The Republicans try to pull down the social welfare state and reduce taxes and regulation on the rich, but they don't give anything much to the people for it.
