The Steinle shooter is acquitted and Flynn pleads guilty all within 24 hours! The irony.

Thanks, guess some of our learned CD posters think it is ok to have two administrations at a time.

Mueller is efficient, thorough, and reputedly a highly astute prosecutor. In the relatively short time since he took charge of the investigation, he has produced results. He has secured cooperating witnesses, guilty pleas to charges, and indictments. This investigation is serious.

I can see why people with feeble minds and tribalist inclinations would try to minimize or discredit the investigation a few months ago. But at this point, to deny that this investigation is serious and is producing substantive results is really quite silly, if not outright un-American. There is a time for politics and there is a time to face the truth. People have pleaded guilty to crimes and are cooperating with the US government in a serious investigation. This is the time to face the truth. Crimes were committed, and probably more will be unearthed over the course of this investigation. It’s time to put down your MAGA hats, stop hyperventilating, and let Mueller and his team continue their excellent work on behalf of the American people.

Why is Flynn wasting hundreds of thousands of dollars on lawyers when he can just get all this wonderful legal advice for free off the Internet?

Not Fox truth, not MSNBC truth, but enemy governments potentially interfering and manipulating our leaders. Lets try and get actual answers not spin.

Lying about talking to Russians while under oath is illegal.
