It doesn't seem proper to be so positive of your conclusion.  You may be tired but many millions of Americans are not as convinced.  If the Mueller investigation were abruptly ended, we would not all be happy.  You are certainly entitled to an opinion but keep in mind there are others of equal value.

 

You will NEVER be happy while Trump is president.

 

And everybody's opinions aren't of equal value, because some are utter nonsense (even when delivered with a "well-mannered tone").

 

You have been completely shutdown in this thread with your shitheaded opinions that have nothing to back them up. So "keep that in mind" while you act like a pompous douchebag, you stubborn, stupid, silly man!

 

 

(that was fun!)

U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson on Monday declared that the nerve-agent attack on a former Russian spy in the United Kingdom will “trigger a response,” adding that “clearly” Russia was responsible. British Prime Minister Theresa May said on Monday that it was “highly likely” that Russia was behind the attack, and she gave the Kremlin 48 hours to provide an explanation, or else “we will conclude that this action amounts to an unlawful use of force by the Russian State against the United Kingdom.”

Inquiry took one year. Summary took one page.

 

House Intel releases verdict in Russia probe: No collusion
by Byron York

 

Original Article

 

 

FTA:

 

In addition, the committee took issue with the intelligence community assessment of Russian motivations in the 2016 election. The committee agrees with the assessment that the Russians did, in fact, try to interfere — the findings cite "Russian cyberattacks on U.S. political institutions in 2015-2016 and their use of social media to sow discord." But the committee disagrees with the intelligence community judgment that Russian President Vladimir Putin specifically tried to help President Trump win the election.

What a complete joke. The American people hopefully will see how rotten to the core the Republican Party is that they will blow off an attack on our sovereignty with this snow job of a report. Just shameful

MICHAEL DORAN: The Real Collusion Story.

While the establishment press was singing in harmony with the Clinton campaign, a cacophonous debate erupted inside government. At the end of July, James Clapper, the director of National Intelligence, said at a public forum that the intelligence community was not “ready yet to make a call on attribution” — not ready, that is, to attribute the DNC hack to Putin. Clapper was also unready to say that the intention of the hackers was to get Trump elected. The goal, he said, may simply have been “to stir up trouble.” When combined with similar comments by other intelligence officials, Clapper’s statements undercut Hillary Clinton’s efforts to brand Trump as Putin’s active accomplice.

 

Enter John Brennan. In early August, Brennan launched a personal campaign to force a consensus in support of Clinton’s propaganda. Before long, Clapper became his partner in this effort. They would succeed, however, only after the election — and then only by establishing an ad hoc and highly unorthodox intelligence-assessment team. To man the team, Brennan and Clapper handpicked a small number of analysts, tasking them with reaching a consensus before the inauguration of Donald Trump. The team, no surprise, did not disappoint. In January 2017, it produced the “consensus” that Brennan had been trying to orchestrate for the previous five months. By then, it was still useful as a propaganda tool against President Donald Trump, though it had arrived far too late to help Hillary Clinton win the election.

 

Of course, Brennan has never admitted his political motives. On the contrary, according to an in-depth Washington Post investigation (based on interviews with either Brennan himself or people very close to him), the CIA director claimed to be in possession of eye-popping intelligence reports about the DNC hack. These reports supposedly “captured Putin’s specific instructions on the operation’s audacious objectives — defeat or at least damage the Democratic nominee, Hillary Clinton, and help elect her opponent, Donald Trump.” Yet even if this intelligence trove actually did exist and truly did convince the CIA director, it obviously did not have the same persuasive impact on his colleagues, as evidenced by Brennan’s failure to deliver a consensus assessment of Putin’s motives.

 

 

 

This is a lengthy piece, and with a little effort I think Doran could (and should!) make it book-length.

But you should still read the whole thing. -- Stephen Green

This is a good sign

MOSCOW — The United States and two major European allies on Thursday formally backed Britain’s claims of likely Russian links to a chemical toxin attack against a former spy, calling it the “first offensive use of a nerve agent” in Europe since World War II.

The joint statement from the leaders of France, Germany, the United States and Britain signaled another step in mounting international pressure on Russia over apparent ties to the assault.

The statement said the four nations shared the view of British investigators of Russian ties to last week’s attack against a former double agent and his daughter

There was no “plausible alternative explanation,” the statement added, noting that Russia’s “failure to address the legitimate request by the U.K. government further underlines its responsibility.”

“It is an assault on U.K. sovereignty and any such use by a state party is a clear violation of the Chemical Weapons Convention and a breach of international law,” said the statement, released by the office of the British prime minister.
