SO Trump asked the Heads of FBI, DNI and NSA to Squash Flynn Investigation -Ya Right Nothing to Hide~

[Jonathan]

Um, maybe to save time the question should be who
Trump DID NOT pressure to squash the Flynn/Russia
investigation?

It appears he asked almost everyone.

And the NSA, DNI, acting FBI, Det AG ALL refused
to answer the key questions.

None of them gave any legal justification for not
answering, they just declined.

They all had the same rehearsed song.
They all said they didn't feel pressured
to quash the Flynn/Russia investigation
but when asked what the President said
to them, they all said the same thing.

"I'm not going to tell you".

That's contempt of Congress and puts them
all at risk of being charged with conspiring
to cover up a crime.

This is a massive cover up of obstruction of
justice by Trump, and we'll probably have
to wait until the Special Council puts them
in front of a Grand Jury where they have
to answer or else...go to jail.

Watergate “Smoking Gun” tape

Nixon Oval Office meeting with H.R. Haldeman "Smoking Gun"
Conversation June 23, 1972 Full Transcript


Haldeman introduced the topic as follows:

... the Democratic break-in thing, we’re back to the—in the,
the problem area because the FBI is not under control, because
Gray doesn’t exactly know how to control them, and they
have...their investigation is now leading into some
productive areas...and it goes in some directions we
don’t want it to go.


After explaining how the money from CRP was traced to the
burglars, Haldeman explained to Nixon the cover-up plan
:
“the way to handle this now is for us to have Walters [CIA]
call Pat Gray [FBI] and just say, ‘Stay the hell out of this
... this is ah, business here we don’t want you to go
any further on it.’”

President Nixon approved the plan, and after he was given
more information about the involvement of his campaign
in the break-in, he told Haldeman: “All right, fine, I
understand it all. We won’t second-guess Mitchell and
the rest.”

Returning to the use of the CIA to obstruct the FBI, he
instructed Haldeman: “You call them in. Good. Good deal.
Play it tough. That’s the way they play it and that’s
the way we are going to play it.

The Washington Post

The nation’s top intelligence official told associates in
March that President Trump asked him if he could intervene
with then-FBI Director James B. Comey to get the bureau
to back off its focus on former national security adviser
Michael Flynn in its Russia probe, according to officials.

On March 22, less than a week after being confirmed by the
Senate, Director of National Intelligence Daniel Coats
attended a briefing at the White House together with
officials from several government agencies. As the
briefing was wrapping up, Trump asked everyone to
leave the room except for Coats and CIA Director
Mike Pompeo.

The president then started complaining about the FBI
investigation and Comey’s handling of it, said officials
familiar with the account Coats gave to associates.

After the encounter, Coats discussed the conversation
with other officials and decided that intervening with
Comey as Trump had suggested would be inappropriate,
according to officials who spoke on condition of anonymity
to discuss sensitive internal matters.

Trump to FBI Head Comey...


“I hope you can see your way clear to letting this go, to
letting Flynn go,” Comey said Trump told him. Comey added
that Trump called Flynn “a good guy” and said “I hope you
can let this go.”

Comey said he “understood the President to be requesting
that we drop any investigation of Flynn.”


Trump asked Comey what he could do to “lift the cloud”
of the Russia investigation.

“I need loyalty, I expect loyalty,” Comey said Trump told
him during a Jan. 27 dinner. “I didn’t move, speak, or
change my facial expression in any way during the awkward
silence that followed,” Comey wrote. “We simply looked
at each other in silence.”



Comey told Sessions “to prevent any future direction
communication between the President and me.” “I told the AG
that what had just happened – him being asked to leave
while the FBI Director, who reports to the AG, remained
behind – was inappropriate and should never happen,”
he recalled telling Sessions face to face. “He did not
reply. For the reasons discussed above, I did not mention
that the President broached the FBI’s potential
investigation of General Flynn.”

Ah, and once again with the JonthyFacts (tm). Isn't it funny how the
"he never told Trump he was not being investigated" that you were
shouting about a day or two ago turned out to not be true? Does it
even register with you when your raving blows up on you or do you just
advance to the next delusion?

Sure thing, Jon Boi. Keep grating your carrot while dreaming that

[Fred J. McCall]

Jonthy doesn't seem to understand what a Grand Jury is, who can
convene one, or what its powers are. He also fails to understand the
principle of Executive Privilege, whereby conversations between the
President and members of his Administration are, well, PRIVILEGED and
their contents cannot be forced to be revealed. Comey, who is no
longer a member of the Executive Branch of government, is one thing.
Currently serving members are quite another.

I think Jonthy is MOST upset that his prediction about the
Intelligence Community 'getting' Trump because they were offended some
things he's said about them just didn't come true. Like almost all of
Jonthy's 'predictions' it deflated with a quiet whimper.

Executive privilege has to be invoked - and formally - by the president,
ferdie. It wasn't. Those boys just decided on their own to clam up.
You also seem to be unaware - again - that the president could have
invoked executive privilege to keep Comey from testifying about his
conversations with President Shitbag during the time that Comey was FBI
director.

You are so badly unaware. Why is that?

You need to do at least some homework before
uttering your nonsense.

That's all bullshit Fred Executive Privilege only applies
under very narrow circumstances none of which apply
to these conversations.

And today we find out our AG had a third secret meeting
with Kislyak that he just seemed to forget to mention.

Funny about that.

Sessions will be forced out of office before long, please
note for three days now the Trump administration has refused
to say they have confidence in Sessions after being
repeatedly asked.

And all these meetings where Trump insists on being
alone with Comey just happen to be meetings where
Trump tries to get Comey to stop the investigations.

And just days after Comey met with Trump but didn't
give Trump the answer he wanted, didn't play ball, Trump
fired him.

This is just so obviously obstruction, when the democrats
take back the house impeachment will be #1 on their
agenda.

Can't wait.

[Fred J. McCall]

And it doesn't have to be invoked until it has to be, dickbreath.
Since they were let by without being forced to answer it didn't need
to be. No doubt Congress prefers it that way.

He could have, but in that case he would have probably lost, since
Comey isn't a current member of the Administration. Can you really be
this ignorant about the actual purpose of Executive Privilege?

But no US attorney has the authority to empanel a grand jury, so
according to what you've posted so far neither does the special
prosecutor. Would you like to try actually responding to the
questions, cuntquat? Which grand jury would that be, Jonthy? Who

established it where and for what purpose?

Gee, a part time consultant to help keep him from fucking up. I'm
impressed.

Let's go over what we know so far from Comey's testimony, Jonthy.

1) As Trump said, Comey told him multiple times that there was no FBI
investigation that involved Trump himself.

2) Comey agreed that Flynn was "a good guy".

3) Comey testified that he was pressured to drop the CLINTON
investigation, too, to the point of being directed to not refer to it
as an investigation.

4) There was no evidence of collusion between the Russians and any
member of the Trump campaign.

5) Comey was so disgruntled over being fired that he deliberately
leaked selective information to the press to try to manipulate the
system into naming a Special Prosecutor.

Wow, you must be so disappointed after all your hype about how his
testimony would destroy Trump. Once again your TDS delusions have
blown up in your face.

Ya back in January or March, but since he fired
Comey you can bet the President is being
investigated NOW.

Big time, did you listen to Comey's testimony?

The republicans barely defended Trump and the
republican controlled committee just gave
the White House less than two weeks to
turn over any tapes if they exist and
all other materials related to those
conversations between the two.

And no one in their right minds would
believe Trump over Comey considering
the unending string of lies and bullshit
that comes out of Trump's mouth on
a daily basis. Combined with Comey
documenting every conversation as
they happened which courts see as
important evidence.

But of course a true believer like you
believes anything Trump says.

...Yet.

Claiming he's been vindicated during such early stages
of the investigations is just plain ignorance.

Moeller is on it, and we won't find out until
Flynn is forced to testify. That could takes months
to play out.

Big deal, that leak isn't illegal. But it wasn't
a good idea for Comey to do it that way.
He should have just gave it out openly in a
press conference.

> Wow, you must be so disappointed after all your hype about how his

Comey stated he believed Trump was directing him
to stop the investigation, that's a crime Fred.
It's an abuse of power which is the basis
for obstruction charges.

And we've yet to find out what Trump said to Coates
when Trump tried to get him to help squash the
investigation.

You have no idea how fast the walls are closing in
around Trump, you're clueless that Trump is burying
himself every time he opens his mouth.

Yesterday Trump said he'd gladly testify under oath.
That's insane to state that, Trump's lawyer must
have put his fist through a wall when Trump
said that.

It's not even clear a president can be forced to
testify under oath Fred, his lawyer could have
stalled the investigation for months just over
that one issue, but Trump blew that away with
his big fat mouth.

If Trump is eventually shown to have colluded
with the Russians to undermine our democracy
he'll be seen by history as being WORSE than
Benedict Arnold.

It would be unforgivable if he had his staff
coordinate with the Russians, and all Trump
has done only shows he's desperately hiding
something.

And it all revolves around Russian loving Flynn.


Wake up and smell the roses.

Well, no, he cannot. As you yourself have pointed out he has the
powers "of any other US attorney". No US attorney can empanel a grand
jury. Therefore the Special Council cannot empanel a grand jury,
either.

No one said it was 'illegal', although that could be argued. You miss
the point. HE DID IT THE WAY HE DID TO MANIPULATE THE SYSTEM. He
wouldn't have gotten a Special Prosecutor assigned if he'd just put it
out in a press conference. That would have left him looking like what
