So far, Trump has admitted:
1. That he knew Flynn was lying, hence he fired him at a much later date, well after firing Yates.
2. That he knew Flynn was lying, yet he did not report this to the FBI.
3. That he knew Flynn was lying, yet he fired Comey.

There could be Logan Act Violations too.

Interestingly, Trump's Base is alleging that Trump did not draft the Tweet which proves he Obstructed Justice, that his Lawyer Dowd did it.

Maybe Dowd also scribbled in Beverly Nelson's yearbook, and maybe it was Dowd who drafted the 33000 emails on Hillary's Server....
How silly can the Base get? Or is it just panic?

"
SINCE FRIDAY:
(1) Mueller has Trump on Obstruction over Mike Flynn.
(2) Mueller has Trump for lying about whether he knew of Flynn's December actions.
(3) Mueller has Pence for lying about whether he knew of Flynn's December actions.
(4) Mueller has EVERYTHING ELSE Flynn knows.

Based on the information Mueller has now—and I mean only the information that's public; I'm not even counting the reams and reams of information he has that we don't know about—Bob Mueller will hunt both Trump and Pence to the ends of the Earth to secure impeachment and conviction.

FBI Analyst Asha Rangappa has created an extremely popular thread on Twitter asking about why all members of Team Trump were so inclined to get chatty with Russians even after knowing that 35 Russian Diplomats were sent back for spying by Obama Administration under instructions of many investigative agencies about Russian Hacking/Manipulation.

To this day, Congressional Sanctions against Russia have not been enforced by Trump.

Ms Mcfarland even has en email in which she writes Russians threw the election to Team Trump: "If there is a *** -for-tat escalation Trump will have difficulty improving relations with Russia, which has just thrown U.S.A. election to him".

Trump is Putin's worst nightmare as President of the United States.

With all the power in his hands, if Hillary was really guilty, Trump would have really locked her up. But the chap who screamed "Lock Her Up" is the one being cuffed.

Trump really hires the Best of the Best.

From Manafort to Flynn, from Preibus to Papadapoulos, from Macfarland to Mooch to Gorka and Bannon. Sheer excellence dripping with every recruitment.
Only David Duke and Richard Spencer are missing from this Justice League of White Hooded Capes...

Greatest Recruiter of all time, we have to stand up and applaud Orange Julius for that.

Utter tripe..AND ignorance of how the US government works.

President's do not dictate as to who gets charged with what offenses. That's the justification for having what is supposed to be independent professional investigators and independent prosecutors at the FBI and Justice Dept.

But it is ok for US presidents to Retweet fake Videos to incite violence against Muslims? From a website whose members are Terrorists?

It is ok for US Presidents to cast aspersions on the FBI and belittle FBI Heads without formal investigation?

It is ok for US Presidents to put the lives of US Journalists abroad in danger by alleging that they all are purveyors of "Fake News"?

It is ok for US Presidents to mock and shame their own citizens, even members of their own party due to disagreement?

It is ok for US Presidents to call protesting Athletes as "Sons of B*tches"?

It is ok in this day and age of accountability and Transparency for US Presidents to shamelessly hide their Tax returns?

It is ok for US Presidents to demand Gratitude in public? And feud if that demanded Gratitude is not given?

It is ok for US Presidents to "Grab Beautiful women by their p***y"?

It is ok for the US Presidents to support politicians accused of being Pedophiles and Sex Predators?

During the campaign Tromp admitted and apologized for the Billy Bush tape. Now he is claiming they weren't him at all but doctored. What is he trying eying to prove... that he's senile, or just totally unable to admit error?

Same with the tweet in the OP it seems.. but that raises the nasty question of who speaks for Don Wan, and what the consequences could be.

Here is a nice one from Seth:

The John Dowd Situation, in three easy steps:

(1) If Dowd used Trump's feed to confess to Obstruction without telling Trump, he must be disbarred.

(2) If Trump saw but didn't stop/erase the tweet, he's culpable for it.

According to Trump's Logic, Heather Heyer's reported death by CNN is also "Fake News". That she was run over by a White Supremacist is also "Fake News".
Anything said by any News Outlet that is biased against him is "Fake News"

Such an attitude does not befit the President of even Chad or North Korea, leave alone USA.

The Content in the Tweets from the handles I posted are exhaustive, but they are biased in the final conclusion against Trump. You can debate their conclusions to the contrary but it is not fair to just label actual verifiable content as "Fake News".

Trump's entire team has been lying about meeting Russians from the start, why could they not just tell the Truth when asked at first?

Trump should not have discussed the Russian Probe with Comey ever. A President should govern, not control investigations.

Today, he just assaulted the Competence of the entire FBI. 1000s of Patriotic Officers thrown under the bus because a few bad apples could exist. Same way he treats Muslims, African Americans, Mexicans etc. Blame all for the error of a few.

According to Trump, he is not even being investigated. Why should he even open his mouth about the FBI or FBI Leadership when it is none of his business as he is not under any threat [According to him.]

Anyway, since he is such a clean, perfect Human Being with no wrong doing ever committed since he started campaigning, why are his supporters so high strung? Nothing can go wrong for "Dear Leader". Its just "Winning", so just enjoy the fun... let the "Whiners" Whine...

He was interviewed by Special Counsel Robert Mueller earlier this week, before Flynn’s plea deal became official. It’s unknown if McGahn told the full truth about the Flynn matter or if he lied. If it’s the latter, then McGahn has committed a felony, and Mueller will force him to cut a plea deal of his own. On the other hand, even if McGahn told Mueller the truth, he would be admitting that he knew Flynn was guilty when he helped Trump cover up various aspects of the Trump-Russia scandal, which could be viewed as a crime in its own right.

Remember: Trump fired Acting AG Sally Yates immediately after she warned Trump's Counsel McGahn about Flynn giving the same false information to Pence which he fibbed to the FBI.

And in all this chaos, nobody is putting the spotlight on Pence. He knew all along that Flynn fibbed to the FBI.
