    would that qualify as obstruction?

    I'm guessing, though I'm not a lawyer, it might seem like a blatant attempt to have the investigation come to a conclusion, especially considering now collusion is no longer a crime.

    He needs the limelight, I think. As long as CNN and Fox are talking about trump, trump can get a boner.

    I hope Sessions asks for direction about the special council in writing in a press conference today because most governments aren't ran by tweets.

    no doubt.

    just a hunch, but it really feels like this is about to come to a head soon.

    Sessions will do nothing at all. He has recused himself from the Russia probe. Trump is between a rock and a hard place. Let him rant and rave.

    Trump is starting to lose it with a series of angry tweets

    awesome

    the worst part that he is actually making sense, the whole thing is frigging shame, reminder of a dark past with McCarthyism

    WaPo sez if trump had told Sessions directly to end it, it'd be obstruction. Tweeting it puts it in a gray area.....

    ^ sorry WaPo, but that's bullsh!t. it's obstruction in plain sight.
    just like when he fired comey...and then admitted it was because of the russia investigation.
    who wrote the article in the post?

    saw an interesting theory posited on TV yesterday....

    you may have seen that giuliani was very upset recently that the SC's office didn't respond to his offer regarding trump being interviewed by mueller....he said he sent the offer 10 days ago (now it would be 12 or 13 days) but got nothing back from them. no reply at all.

    could this be that the SC's office no longer considers trump to be a subject of the investigation....but rather as a target of the investigation?

    Something is causing Trump to panic, based on yesterday's tweeter-tantrums. The investigation must be getting close to an issue like organized crime or money laundering, or likely both.

    Who would wonder that the Americans are influenced by Russians? Just have a look on all the many Putin's Youtubes, each not under 1 M views. (His singing in yesterday post only 9M.)

    So is there somebody else speaking like him no-nonsense explaining how the world situation really is? Not everybody has the brain washed out by CNN, WaPo, NYT, you name it...

    Americans are certainly being brainwashed by both sides of their political landscape,

    basically 2 dominating males fighting for a pool of females

    the females eventually get fucked, always

    cameras aren't allowed in the courtroom for manafort's trial, so there is only a courtroom sketch artist

    I remember Bannon once saying that all any investigator had to do is follow trump's money trail....

    I found this interesting.....perhaps Bannon was spot on the money...
