Ryan took money from the Russians for his campaign. He's one of those likely being investigated.

Ah, so you are only questioning it NOW....I would have thought you'd have done this when GW was appointed...

As far as I am concerned, that was the final nail in the coffin. Of course, we've had additional nails driven in by the holding up of Obama's SCOTUS pick and many other such situations.

In short - this entire administration is fraudulent. The "fair" thing to do would be to nullify the last election. Of course, the fair thing to do would be to un-gerrymander much of the country also.

I'm a bit flabbergasted that you think we have such a system...after what we have seen in our lifetimes. Without even thinking much....

JFK shot.
Vietnam started on false pretenses
Nixon/Kissinger making treasonous deals about his re-election (Vietnam).
Nixon Prolonged Vietnam War for Political Gain
Reagan and Iran-Contra, Right Wing Death Squads and much more (more of his admin indicted than any other in history - yet he is right wing hero?).
GOP spending decades (by now) full press on the Clintons - even when Bill was POTUS (investigations, etc.).
GW Bush Election - fixing the election in Florida (his brother) and the SCOTUS....

Lots more where that comes from....

NONE of this stuff was held back by checks and balances...now we have a election swung by Russians, Fake News and Comey (any of the three not existing would have meant Trump lost).....

And - no matter what happens - the GOP still gets to keep their ill gotten gains....such as the SCOTUS.

This is, of course, unfair. Crime pays - BIG TIME. What type of example are we setting for ourselves and the world?

It's the American way.

When Swiss authorities apprehended Vesco for his involvement in IOS, the CIA sprung him from a Geneva prison. Vesco became an international fugitive and took refuge in Costa Rica in the early 1970’s where he found a business partner in President Don “Pepe” Figueres, whose son Marti succeeded him and continued dealing with Vesco. In 1974 Santos Trafficante moved to Costa Rica. When DEA undercover agent Frank Peroff fingered Vesco as ringleader of a massive heroin smuggling ring, he was fired and his life threatened. The Nixon White House squelched a Congressional investigation of Vesco. Dan Moldea claims in his book The Hoffa Wars that Nixon received kickbacks from Trafficante. [446]

Yes, and it was also reported in the Washington Post. Link
"Anonymous Sources" such as Deep Throat reported on by Woodward and Bernstein in the
Washington Post...are one of the things that helped bring down President Nixon during Watergate.
Bernstein has recently stated that what is going on right now is worse than Watergate.

James Clapper, the Former Director of National Intelligence agrees that the Russian Investigation is worse than
Watergate.

That would create a special precedent, wood nit?

He probably already promised it to Ivanka.
