    What was Trump's predicate crime and where was any crime committed by Russia? Placing ads on facebook is not a crime. Making false statements in public is not a crime. What crime was committed and be specific.

    Mueller is investigating whether any crimes have been committed. I'll wait and see what comes out of his investigation. That is the whole point.

    The difference between you and me is that I will accept what Mueller finds - regardless of whether it implicates Trump (or any of his team) ore exonerates him.

    I am willing to accept what Mueller finds. Are you?

    Well I figured you will get around to that once Trump declassifies the memo.

    You investigate when you have evidence of a crime. Can the police start an investigation of you just to see if you have ever committed a crime? Can they subpoena your records just to see if you committed a crime with not underlying predicate crime that they know of? The whole point of the Constitution and your legal protections is they have to have reasonable suspicion and probable cause.

    What was it? The difference between you and me is I believe in the Constitution.

    How about the next Democrat President elect we just start an FBI investigation into them and their staff and their family just to see if any of them ever committed a crime? Why not Schumer and Pelosi, why don't we investigate them to see if they ever committed any crimes or colluded with a foreign government?

    You should read the Intel report.
    Trump was not the target of the initial investigation. Why should any crimes they find being ignored?

    The GOP congress and tRUmp seem to be desperate for this partizan memo to be out before any other memo and they seem to need it to be now. Interesting to see what they want to spin first.

    You mean the memo the dems scrambled to put together and wanted a vote on before anyone could read it, including the intelligence committee?

    Here is a thinker. While claiming the memo is bogus the same turn around and claim it will harm national security. How could it do that if it is bogus?

    There has to be some seriously stinky kimchee in this memo for the Dems and the swamp critters. I have never seen so many lib heads explode so fast in all my years of political voyeurism. More they scream the more curious I get. However I am not getting my hopes up, some dem politician will scream and pronounce it to be Armageddon if their burger comes without a pickle with it. So I am expecting this to be a big nothing burger, with pickle
