Are we, In a matter of moments, going to see the tRump administration say "we can't

[Augiedog]

comment on ongoing investigations "? When they are asked about tRumps Obama wiretap allegation/tweets?

I just watched that dirt bag Jason Chafetz mumble something about a congressional investigation while being interviewed on CBS this morning. He also managed to say that James Clapper has no credibility after being told that Clapper had denied tRumps claims.

Another questionable character, FBI director Comey, is desperately trying to reign in the justice department. Why? Why not let them investigate? Probably because there is an intense investigation going on about Russian interference in our elections and dumbass tRump just exposed a significant element of it. An element, unfortunately for tRump, that President Obama had/has nothing to do with.

Exposure of the FISA warrant could expose sources and techniques in the investigation. tRump may well have endangered undercover agents or sources, American and foreign. tRump, by his allegations, may have declassified the FISA warrant and in doing so exposed it to FOIA requests.

How much longer are we going to have to risk our nation to cowtow to tRump? He is a loose cannon in a world that, above all, needs stability and clear headed thinking. Has ANYONE ever accused tRump of being stable, clear headed or even a thinker?

But as I said, in very short order, we are going to start hearing republicans say "I/We can't comment on an ongoing investigation ". This is the beginning of the congressional cover up. We will have the cloud of some ephemeral, alleged investigation hanging around. A congressional investigation that NEVER accomplishes anything other than giving cover to tRump so that he can avoid having to answer for his insane accusations and tweets.

No matter how much longer tRump is president, ten minutes or eight years, we will never see a resolution to this issue. And our stalwart media will let it go by the wayside as soon as they think there is no more money to be wrung out of the story.

1. Nope!

This Russia thing will ultimately devour Trump.

3. Agree

He is going down. Have you heard any of the generals? They're not having it. Crisis may come to a head when 45 orders up some military operation to CYA and the generals say NO.


General Michael Hayden goes farther than I've heard him go before on "Morning Joe"

Direct quote, answering Mika's question, "Why is he doing this?"

"...If you're asking me why, he's trying to detract attention from what was a very, very bad news cycle, and let me go very very dark on you, Mika, all right? the President of the United States put his reputation, the reputation of his predecessor, and the reputation of this nation at risk to get at least a 'draw' out of the next 24 hour news."

2. Watch Spicer tap dance today

I wonder if he thought his tweet would stop questions??

4. I think you're right. Here's my take based on the very astute point you made:

1. Trump claims his golden tower was wiretapped by Obama.
2. Investigation is tied to the Russia interference and Trump camp collusion investigation.
3. "We can't comment on an ongoing investigation"

viola!

TOTAL COVER-UP.
