Important emails and computers magically vanished without any DOJ scrutiny or penalty. Top secret national security information freely exposed -- obvious coverups and no punishmeant, The corruption was never ending.

Too bad for Trump that his DOJ isn't severely corrupted like Obama's.
Um, actually it's too bad for Trump that he himself and the folks around him are severely corrupted.

Trump and the folks around him are in BIG trouble - and they have no one to blame for that but themselves.

Still leaks out of the White House. The latest 2 that come to mind are reports that Trump isn't going to pull us of the Paris agreement and the political back-biting centered around Omarosa. Even the White House memo against leaks was leaked last week.
LOL

It occurs to me that the same people who think that the Russian story has gone away are the same sort of people who believe that playing peek-a-boo really works the way toddlers think it works - covering your eyes means that the person in front of you has actually disappeared.

Actually the Paris agreement leak came from Europe not the white house.

Omarosa. I had no idea she was actually working in the white house. I guess you keep up with Trump more than I do. You have to be a Trumpie or a leftie to care about all the goings on. I am neither.

If Omarosa is the biggest leak of the week then I stand by my question, what happened to all the leaks?

It was a floodgate of leaks when Bannon and Prebus were there. Now its down to a drip drip. My point is I think Bannon and Prebus were the guilty parties for most of it.

Actually, the Mueller investigation is going exactly as it should. It appears the White House isn't enjoying it either.

"Tension between the two comes as life in the White House is shadowed by the investigation. Not only do Mr. Trump, Mr. Kushner and Mr. McGahn all have lawyers, but so do other senior officials. The uncertainty has grown to the point that White House officials privately express fear that colleagues may be wearing a wire to surreptitiously record conversations for Mr. Mueller."

This is also interesting. Republicans loved this when it worked in their favor with Bill Clinton. Wonder how they'll like it when it's on the other side?

"During the 1998 investigation into whether President Bill Clinton committed perjury and obstruction of justice to cover up an affair with Ms. Lewinsky, an appeals court ruled that government lawyers do not enjoy the same attorney-client privilege as private lawyers and that prosecutors in some circumstances can compel a White House lawyer to testify."

Speaking of leaks; makes one wonder at the quality of representation Trump's able to come up with if these two guys represent the best he could find:

NYT: Cobb overheard talking about colleagues, Russia probe at DC steakhouse - CNNPolitics

Now that right there is a leak no one can blame on anything other than rank incompetence.

Mueller's probably ROTFLHAO at this latest gaff.
