He lives and works in the UK. He was never a Russian agent, except Nunes. I don't know who anyone with a relationship with Malta can be called a Russian spy.

The Russian government (click here) has described Malta’s decision to close its airspace to Russian military transport planes bound for Venezuela as “not friendly”.

Russian foreign ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova on Thursday said the Russian government will take Malta’s decision “into account” when considering bilateral relations with Valletta.

Malta has twice refused permission to Russian military planes bound for Venezuela to use its airspace after a first request had been accepted.

At the weekly news briefing today, Zakharova said the Russian embassy in Malta had asked for permission to allow Russian planes bound for Venezuela to pass through Malta’s airspace.

She acknowledged that Malta exercised is sovereign right but went on to say: “The solution of Malta government is not friendly… of course Russia will take this into account in its bilateral relations with Valletta.”

The Russian government has insisted it was not given an explanation for the refusal....

...Zakharova insisted she was “surprised” by the statement that Russia would cause trouble, describing it as “absurd” and “fake news”....

...The Russian embassy had sought permission for a visit by the warship Severomorsk, a large anti-submarine guided-missile destroyer, to dock at Grand Harbour between 23 and 26 April but withdrew the request last Tuesday.

The Maltese government was going to refuse the request.

Exculpated!  Donald Trump was and is not exculpated.

It doesn't matter if the Special Counsel Report went to the Attorney General. The DOCUMENT CREATING THE SPECIAL COUNSEL SPECIFICALLY THE FINDINGS ARE TO BE PROVIDED TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. Bill Barr violated the order creating teh Special Counsel when he issues a four page summary, hence, Barr violated the law. When he was called on the carpet by Mueller with a 2 page letter, Barr finally released the report albeit redacted.

Exculpated is the word.

Donald Trump was and is not exonerated/exculpated. 

Exculpated is the word.

...Speaking publicly (click here) about his investigation for the first time, Mueller made it clear that—despite Trump critics’ hopes—he followed Justice Department policy that prohibits indicting a sitting president. But,he also said that if his team proved Trump was clean, “we would have said so.”...

Robert Mueller as a Special Counsel carries a responsibility to the American people. It was their election he was investigating. He made it clear Donald J. Trump could not be charged as his campaign chairman, Manafort was, HOWEVER, it was because of an opinion of the DOJ, and the American people should not be confused that actions and behavior by Donald J. Trump was indeed criminal in content.

I got that. Ya know? When he spoke about the report's findings I got the fact that the DOJ has a stupid opinion.

I really did get that part. I got it because Robert Mueller as Special Counsel said it.

When are the Republicans going to find a backbone to protect their country? Never? Then they need to be defeated when they want their Senate seat back.

Possible Statute of Limitations on Trump.

5 years (click here)

All crimes not otherwise provided for

The American people should not have to tolerate such issues. If there are crimes that have to be answered for and the DOJ has rendered itself helpless, then the Congress must seriously consider impeachment.

If he is guilty of bank fraud and tax evasions and/or fraud that statute is different. I believe bank charges are at least six years. However, the action by the US House regarding racism by the president has a statute limitation of a hate crime of seven years.

Considering the brevity of hate crimes, the president needs to abandon his campaign of hate against the four women. He will bear a degree of responsibility for any harm caused them.

The Wikileaks stuff is a problem with the chain of custody. The FBI/CIA would have to be able to prove the emails taken from the hacking were the emails displayed on Wikileaks. If there were intermediaries it would get messy and cause a flaw in the case to the jury.

Any emails displayed on the Russia sites are more clear. Trump's statements don't really convey anything that is evidence. They are evidence of his political preferences and that implies a lot of misguided values, but, there is no hard evidence in those statements about the crimes involved with ongoing proceedings.

While Trump was hugging Wikileaks, the Clinton campaign should have noted everything was one sided and his statements implied a lot of why that may be. That is the real craft in politics. In their defense and all those that supported her campaign were astounded by the crime and caught completely off guard, yet nothing seemed to rattle Trump.

Robert S. Mueller, III has been nothing short of an American hero all the years of his life and that is the case today. His time today was invaluable and a sincere thank you is in order for him, his staff and the family he is not with today.

I wish him a continued happy life and retirement.
