Comeyn syy että FBI:n maine on riekaleina. Mutta ei huolta, liittovaltion poliisi nousee vielä suuruuteen.

Trump julkaisi ensimmäisen twiitin Flynnin sopimuksesta. Trumpin mukaan hän antoi potkut Flynnille koska tämä valehteli FBI:lle ja Pencelle. Tämä tarkottaisi sitä että Trump tiesi Flynnin ja Kislyakin välisistä keskusteluista.
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-offers-full-support-for-embattled-republican-roy-moore/Mr. Trump tweeted early Monday that "Democrats refusal to give even one vote for massive Tax Cuts is why we need Republican Roy Moore to win in Alabama."
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/wh...ery-badly-flynn-points-finger-hillary-n826221"Clinton lied many times to the FBI, nothing happened to her. Flynn lied and they destroyed his life. I think it's a shame," Trump said on the White House South Lawn.
Clinton was interviewed by the FBI during the campaign about her use of a private server while leading the State Department, but Trump offered no proof to support his claim Monday.
Nyt Trumpin lakimies John Dowd kertoo olleensa tuon twiitin takana, ei Trump itse. Down kertoo tehneensä virheen viestin muotoilussa ja sanoo samalla että tämä oli ensimmäinen ja viimeinen kerta kun hän kirjoittelee presidentin nimissä tämän Twitter-tilille viestejä.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/poli...2589434a581_story.html?utm_term=.e62614a65f9bIn the four-page filing Monday, prosecutor Andrew Weissmann urged the judge to reject the bail deal, arguing that Manafort and a Russian colleague have been secretly ghostwriting an English-language editorial that appeared to defend Manafort’s work advising a Russia-friendly political party in Ukraine.
They said Manafort worked on the draft as recently as last week with “a long-time Russian colleague . . . who is currently based in Russia and assessed to have ties to a Russian intelligence service.” They indicated they would file further supporting evidence under seal.
Prosecutors said the editorial Manafort was writing violated a court order prohibiting the parties in the case from making public statements outside of court that could influence jurors.
The piece “clearly was undertaken to influence the public’s opinion of defendant Manafort,” prosecutors wrote, noting there would be no other reason for Manafort and the colleague to have it published under someone else’s name.
The allegation is the first time that prosecutors have claimed any former Trump campaign official has had contacts with a Russian tied to that country’s intelligence services.
Billy Bush: Yes, Donald Trump, You Said That
Jos tuohon Turun sanomien juttuun vielä kommentoi:
Kohutviitin kirjoitti asianajaja, ei Trump? ...
Tuossa ollaan jotenkin vähän naiiveja. On kohtalaisen oletettavaa, että Trump oli hyvin tietoinen Flynnin käymistä keskusteluista. Hyvin mahdollisesti, suorastaan ohjeisti Flynniä. On myöskin mahdollista, että hän kehotti Flynniä myöhemmin valehtelemaan FBI:lle. Nämä ovat toki tässä vaiheessa vain arvauksia.
Se kuitenkin joka tapauksessa tiedetään, että Trump tiesi Flynnin valehdelleen, ja tiesi myös hänen jääneen siitä kiinni. Virkaa tekevä oikeusministeri Sally Yates nimittäin tuli pari päivää Flynnin haastattelun jälkeen kertomaan valkoiseen taloon, että Flynn oli vehkeillyt ja oli valehdellut siitä FBI:lle ja jäänyt valehtelusta kiinni, ja että Flynn muodosti turvallisuusriskin. Vähän tämän jälkeen Yates erotettiin. Flynn erotettiin myöhemmin, kun asia tuli julki.
Siten tuo twiitti ei siis tuo uutta tietoa Trumpin syyttämisen kannalta. Siinä Twiitissä vain käytännössä paljastui, että Trump valehteli. Mutta sekin tiedettiin jo alunperin.
Menneisyyden haamut vainoavat Trumpin hallintoa tässä tapauksessa. Vuonna 1999 senaattori Jeff Sessions vaati Bill Clintonin erottamista virastaan Obstruction of justice syyn nojalla.Tuo asia on nyt sitten muistettu laajemminkin.
Tässä esim. CNN:n analyysiä.
WH lawyer told Trump (when Yates had told) that Flynn misled FBI and Pence

Oikeudellinen rengas siis kiristyy. Trumpin asianajaja kommentoi.
President Donald Trump's personal attorney, John Dowd, said Monday the President cannot be guilty of obstructing justice.
- "(The) President cannot obstruct justice because he is the chief law enforcement officer under (the Constitution's Article II) and has every right to express his view of any case," Dowd told Axios.
Tuo siis tarkoittaisi, että presidentti on lain yläpuolella. Moni muu ei kuitenkaan ole sitä mieltä.
Tulee vielä mielenkiintoista perustuslaillista ja poliittista tulkintaa.

Parhaiten Trumpin tviittejä ymmärtää, kun ajattelee, että Trump on myyntimies ja yrittää kaupata ideaansa sulle.Comeyn syy että FBI:n maine on riekaleina. Mutta ei huolta, liittovaltion poliisi nousee vielä suuruuteen.
http://edition.cnn.com/2017/12/04/p...lynn-deputy-mcfarland-court-filing/index.htmlFormer national security adviser Michael Flynn's deputy told a key Senate committee she "was not aware" of any communications between Flynn and the Russian ambassador -- an assertion that appears to contradict a court filing unsealed Friday, according to documents obtained by CNN.
Written comments from K.T. McFarland, who was previously Flynn's deputy and is now President Donald Trump's nominee to be ambassador to Singapore, contrast with court documents unsealed Friday after Flynn pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about his conversations with then-Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak.
http://edition.cnn.com/2017/12/06/p...removing-russia-sanctions-priority/index.htmlAs President Donald Trump delivered his inaugural address, incoming-national security adviser Michael Flynn texted his former business colleague about a plan to join Russia and build nuclear reactors in the Middle East: The project was "good to go," he told them, according to a summary of a whistleblower's account provided by a lawmaker.
The business colleague who texted with Flynn later recounted that he also suggested sanctions against Russia would be "ripped up" as one of the administration's first acts, according to the whistleblower.
Rep. Elijah Cummings of Maryland, the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, on Wednesday released his summary of the whistleblower's account detailing Flynn's conversations with colleagues as the Trump administration took power. The account provides the strongest claim yet that the administration was focused on unraveling the sanctions that President Barack Obama had just put in place and that Flynn had a personal motivation for doing so.
Flynn attempted to "manipulate the course of international nuclear policy for the financial gain of his business partners," and assured a business partner the US would relax sanctions once he worked in Trump's White House, Cummings wrote to House Oversight Chairman Trey Gowdy, R-South Carolina.
https://www.politico.com/story/2017/12/06/donald-trump-privilege-questions-284841Donald Trump Jr. on Wednesday cited attorney-client privilege to avoid telling lawmakers about a conversation he had with his father, President Donald Trump, after news broke this summer that the younger Trump — and top campaign brass — had met with Russia-connected individuals in Trump Tower during the 2016 campaign.
Though neither Trump Jr. nor the president is an attorney, Trump Jr. told the House Intelligence Committee that there was a lawyer in the room during the discussion, according to the committee’s top Democrat, Rep. Adam Schiff of California. Schiff said he didn’t think it was a legitimate invocation of attorney-client privilege.
“I don’t believe you can shield communications between individuals merely by having an attorney present,” he said, after the committee’s lengthy interview with Trump Jr. “That’s not the purpose of attorney-client privilege.”
