What I mean is the end game is approaching. Mueller has to play his cards soon, the media are all over the place, and Trump is running riot. The news are full of distraction stories at the moment trying to take your eye off the ball.

Why does he have to play his cards soon in your opinion?
As far as I can see this investigation has resulted in both a number of charges and convictions for people committing serious criminal acts.
The investigation is still ongoing and why does he need to rush things? Because Fox News say so and because 45 unleashes a number of furious tweets or is that what you mean running riot?
Collision may or may not be proved or there may be a report going in which the Republicans choose not to act on. Either way people are getting found out for their criminal
activities which is a very good thing.

It's Labour Day on Monday, and then the mid-term election season will be in full swing. Any revelations by Mueller during this period would be construed as political interference in the election process. So now is the time to speak if he wants to help the Democrats take the House and the Senate, in order to impeach Trump.

Some people have suggested there's a 60 day rule before elections but that's presidential not mid terms so he's free to continue doing what he likes. The investigation is in to what happened in the 2016 election so it's nothing to do with the midterms.
Rudy was trying to get him to finish up early though, I wonder why he was hoping for that?

Re: The Donald Trump thread
Well it looks like we've found out which book Trump was busting his nuts about. It's Fear, by Bob Woodward, the journalist who exposed Watergate. Woodward seems to have chatted to a lot of people and in many cases has the audio.
We learn that John Kelly thinks the President is an idiot and "We're in Crazytown. I don't even know why any of us are here. This is the worst job I've ever had."
We learn that Mattis says he has the analysis of a fifth grader and we're sending him in alone to negotiate with Putin and Kim Jong-Un.
And that Trump thinks McCain got out of his prisoner of war camp early when he's famous for turning it down and staying in to get tortured for years. And that he thinks Sessions is mentally retarded and a dumb Southerner. And that his advisers sometimes take documents off his desk (such as one which would have withdrawn the US from a trade agreement with South Korea) so that he can't sign them. And that after his Charlottesville condemnation of white supremacists, he thought it was "the biggest f**king mistake I've ever made. You never apologise. Why look weak?"
My favourite is the mock interview that Trump's lawyer, John Dowd, did with him to role play how it would go if he testified to Muller. During the mock, Trump lied repeatedly and said he'd be a great witness. Later, Dowd reenacted the mock interview in a meeting with Muller to explain why he didn't want Trump to sit there and be made to look an idiot. Dowd resigned not long after.
Maybe these stories are all lies, though I would wonder why a respected journalist would do that towards the end of a career that includes crucial contributions to two Pulitzer Prizes.
Here's a chat between Woodward and Trump about the book where he repeatedly chucks his staff under the bus. Sorry for the fake news link to the Washington Post who fake published the fake conversation.

Just in time for the elections! :hehe: but General Kelly and General Mattis did say it was all a pile of made-up nonsense. Nice of you to mention Watergate and Pulitzer prizes in an attempt to give the liberal author some credibility, but when are we going to hear the tapes? Some how I doubt it, just like the Stormy tapes, the Cohen tapes, the Omarosa tapes, we won't hear a thing. Until then keep up the good work!

Dowd denied the accuracy of Woodward's reporting, telling the Washington Examiner that he never described Trump as a "****ing liar," warned Trump he risked an "orange jump suit," or described Trump's interview prep to Mueller.
"I do not intend to address every inaccurate statement attributed to me – but I do want to make this clear: there was no so-called ‘practice session’ or ‘re-enactment’ of a mock interview at the Special Counsel’s office," Dowd said in an email. "Further, I did not refer to the president as a 'liar' and did not say that he was likely to end up in an ‘orange jump suit’. It was a great honor and distinct privilege to serve President Trump."
Dowd said that Woodward's book, which will be released Sept. 11, "appears to be the most recent in an endless cycle of accusations and misrepresentations based on anonymous statements from unknown malcontents."

Re: The Donald Trump thread
Two Trump tweets. The first relates to charges brought against two Republican congressmen charged with misusing campaign funds and insider trading when he berated the Justice Department for charging them. The second, well you see if you can spot the difference.
Two long running, Obama era, investigations of two very popular Republican Congressmen were brought to a well publicized charge, just ahead of the Mid-Terms, by the Jeff Sessions Justice Department. Two easy wins now in doubt because there is not enough time. Good job Jeff......

He's a man whose giant dirty pants are flapping on the washing line as they dry on the White House lawn.
Speaking of which, one of the congressmen he references in the first tweet was actually conducting the activity that got him busted on the lawn at one of trump's events, so calling it Obama era is stretching a wee bit.

Only a rumour, but there is talk of Trump declassifying around 20 pages of FISA documents regarding the surveillance on Carter Page, which then swept up the whole Trump campaign team.
