So far that is very thin.

I am not a Fox fan. I give Tucker a listen, because he is provocative and fearless. And he is not afraid to lose debating with people of opposing views.

Have you checked out Carlson's cesspool at the Daily Caller?

Suborning perjury. Collusion. The "smocking" gun. Game over for the con man. Life in a federal pen, with bread and water rations would be too good for the pig.

Adam Schiff hiring full-time team to investigate Trump’s Russia connections
House Intelligence Committee chairman hiring more investigators to revive House Russia probe

No doubt obstruction of justice by little Devin Nunes will be investigated, too.

As I’ve explained, he’s a metaphor for every remaining Trumpkin still lurking, who haven’t crawled back under their rocks, or realized they’ve been conned. Still a lot of them, sadly.

In the majority of Trump supporter homes they already knew it to be true.
Don't care, see no crimes.
So around a third of this country will never change their mind. Just keep listening to the Trump, watching Faux News, making excuses and rationalizations so they can sleep at night. Relish in their ignorance, wearing it proudly!
Logical reasoning and thinking of the future never enters their minds.

We’ll see. They’re standing behind the story so far. Time will tell whether they were lied to, or if they just got some details wrong.

We're being told to stand our ground. Our reporting is going to be borne out to be accurate, and we're 100% behind it," investigative reporter Anthony Cormier told CNN's Brian Stelter on "Reliable Sources" Sunday.

Watergate’s Carl Bernstein On BuzzFeed: It’s Trump Who Has Been Lying All Along
“We have a president of the United States who lies .... serially, routinely, compulsively such as never has happened in our modern history,” he said.

Quote:
Bernstein noted that it’s still unclear if that means the substance of the story is untrue, or if the statement refers to “how the special prosecutor came to know such a thing if indeed that is what happened.”

He noted that he and Bob Woodward made an embarrassing mistake that challenged the credibility of their reporting on Watergate. They reported in the Washington Post that then-president Richard Nixon’s chief of staff directed the payment of hundreds of thousands of dollars to the Watergate burglars. They cited grand jury testimony that in fact did not exist, which the Nixon administration used to slam all of the Post’s Watergate coverage. But the substance of the story turned out to be true.

Bernstein cautioned that “we need to wait for the Mueller report.” But “in the meantime, from available sources, including filings by Mueller ... we have established .. that the president of the United States, his family members, people closest to him in the campaign have lied at every turn in almost everything concerning Russia.”
This story ain't dead by a long shot.

Mueller indicts Roger Stone, says he was coordinating with Trump officials about WikiLeaks' stolen emails

http://lite.cnn.io/en/article/h_a406...f9441c488163d8
Quote:
“After the July 22, 2016, release of stolen (Democratic National Committee) emails by Organization 1, a senior Trump Campaign official was directed to contact STONE about any additional releases and what other damaging information Organization 1 had regarding the Clinton Campaign. STONE thereafter told the Trump Campaign about potential future releases of damaging material by Organization 1," prosecutors wrote.

The indictment also says: "During the summer of 2016, STONE spoke to senior Trump Campaign officials about Organization 1 and information it might have had that would be damaging to the Clinton Campaign. STONE was contacted by senior Trump Campaign officials to inquire about future releases by Organization 1."
Ugly Sarah: “This has nothing to do with the President and certainly nothing to do with the White house. This is something that has to do solely with that individual, and not something that affects us here in (the White House)."

Sure, Sarah.
