In 2017, the Justice Department launched an investigation into Russian interference in the election and what role Trump associates played in the hacking effort. Special counsel Robert Mueller ultimately concluded he lacked sufficient evidence to seek criminal charges against Trump or his campaign for allegedly conspiring with the Russians.
BULLSHIT!!!
Will someone with a fucking Xitter account slap this motherfucker in the goddamned face for printing this MAGA garbage?!
A social media image makes the misleading claim that former special counsel Robert S. Mueller “can’t provide evidence that his probe reached a conclusion.” Mueller reached several conclusions, including that Russia interfered in the 2016 election to damage Hillary Clinton and help Donald Trump.
TWO SECONDS OF SEARCHING WOULD HAVE FIXED THIS i swear these fucking twitter journalists who pretend to know sweet fuck all and get a masthead over their diarrhetic prose GOD DAMN we do not need this fucking shit
Concluding that Russia interfered with an election to Trump's benefit isn't the same thing as concluding that Trump conspired with the Russians
Even if the report had concluded they conspired, concluding they conspired isn't the same thing as having "sufficient evidence to seek criminal charges"
But, the report said, “because we determined not to make a traditional prosecutorial judgment, we did not draw ultimate conclusions about the President’s conduct.
And
the investigation established multiple links between Trump Campaign officials and individuals tied to the Russian government. Those links included Russia offers of assistance to the Campaign.
And
Investigators “found multiple acts by the President that were capable of exerting undue influence over law enforcement investigations, including the Russian-interference and obstruction investigations.”
So: there was collusion, it was tied to the predisent, who then exerted “undue influence” to stop the investigation into the collusion. That’s what they found.
Were there charges? They weren’t ever going to bring charges - which I 100% disagree with, but which they nevertheless say was dictated by a DoJ “guideline memo” “not to charge a sitting president”.
the “investigation established that the Russian government perceived it would benefit from a Trump presidency and worked to secure that outcome, and that the Campaign expected it would benefit electorally from information stolen and released through Russian efforts.”
Not to mention trump fired the AG and replaced him with yes man Bill Barr right before. It's possible Barr pushed the can't prosecute a sitting president on Mueller at the direction of Trump. The Mueller report was super damning, but no one took the time to read it, and Republicans just go sEe? WiTcH HunT! When the reality is the they just chose not to prosecute because Trump was the sitting president.
“These documents were obtained illegally from foreign sources hostile to the United States, intended to interfere with the 2024 election and sow chaos throughout our Democratic process,” Cheung said.
Anyone remember the Darknet Diaries episodes about a bunch of white hats from the Netherlands who managed to guess Trump's Twitter password twice? I think this was after he started campaigning for what would be his presidency, and then again a few years later.
He's definitely like actually supposed to be president in a GTA game. Somehow he's just in the real world fucking confused, spouting shit that'd go over great if he was on a GTA talk radio show.
Normally, a good editor would not publish hacked source. But, this story is too big. If they don't publish, another news operation will get it and worse they'll then be known as sitting on it.
This is just gonna be a double standard like always; Trump was so crass to call Clinton unfit for office because of her data breach, but when it happens to him it's election interference and shouldn't be happening?
