The schwere Panzerabteilung is on its way. Just be patient.

I know this can get a little confusing but a reminder:
The fact that Mueller is investigating possible collusion/collaboration/conspiracy between Trump Campaign people and Russians does not mean that there cannot be other criminal activity by people associated with Trump or Trump himself that is worthy of investigation.
It is as they say a target rich environment.
I know the Access Hollywood thing has you in a lather...but I seriously doubt the Southern District would have requested the search warrant and a magistrate would have approved it if there were not very strong reasons to conduct the search...the fact that it involves an attorney and the president's attorney no less makes it likely that the standard applied exceeded the usual probable cause
but yeah i'm sure it is a nuttin burger witch hunt conducted by various deep state Republicans out to git your boy
More of a tangled web than unproved collusion?
The strong feelings towards Trump are shared by one side of the aisle on this forum. Those of us who are for his policies don't care for him at all. We just support going back to a system of accountability and non-fake outrages.
A question worth asking is what should Rosenstein/Mueller have done if in the course of the Russia/Trump Campaign investigation they came across evidence that Cohen violated various laws. It seems to me they went by the book. They referred the evidence to the attorneys where Cohen lived and presumably committed the crimes in question and let those people make the call on what to do.
The retreat is about as pitiful as I imagined it would be.
