  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Charges still under seal, so there's nothing really to read yet:
Exclusive: First charges filed in Mueller investigation - CNNPolitics

Either way, things are about to get interesting.

The most likely indictments will charge Manafort. Next most likely would be Flynn.

If they are offered deals in exchange for testimony, many more may be indicted. More than twenty were convicted in the Watergate break in.

With the daily scandals and embarrassments since January 20, it has been easy to lose faith in our government, especially as I realize how gerrymandering and Citizens United are subverting our democracy. This first step...the first of many, I imagine...is restoring my faith.

Looking forward to the tweets on Monday.

Next headline I’m looking forward to seeing: “House of Cards views down on the year as many cite current U.S. Administration all the drama they need”

Or their families. I know Mueller used this tactic successfully against Enron execs, and he had been reported to be investigating Flynn's son and at least asking for information from Manafort's son-in-law.

But in any case this seems to explain the reason for all the Russian bots talking up Clinton's involvement in the Steele dossier. Distract, distract, distract...

His investigation is likely to implicate both sides, since why would Russia corrupt just one of the parties, when chaos can be sown doing both. From funding antifa, and black lives matter events, to social media support to Trump, and yep making donations to the Clinton foundation, alongside leaking the democrat party emails, Russia has played both sides.

Appears both sides play dirty. Shocking.

And if it is a Democrat? Don't forget that the investigation has looked and is continuing to look at both.

This would be a good thing. It would finally get the GOP on board with continuing the investigation. Temporarily.
