As reported yesterday, more pieces of the evidence puzzle for Putin puppet Donald "Rump" Trump's treasonous, criminal behavior have fallen into place.
In two major developments this week, President Trump has been labeled in the parlance of criminal investigations as a major subject of interest, complete with an opaque legal code name: “Individual 1.”
New evidence from two separate fronts of special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s investigation casts fresh doubts on Trump’s version of key events involving Russia, signaling potential political and legal peril for the president. Investigators have now publicly cast Trump as a central figure of their probe into whether Trump’s campaign conspired with the Russian government during the 2016 campaign.
Together, the documents show investigators have evidence that Trump was in close contact with his lieutenants as they made outreach to both Russia and WikiLeaks — and that they tried to conceal the extent of their activities.Meanwhile, the beyond- odious Republican Senate leader Mitch "Missy" McConnell refuses to allow a bill that would aim to protect the Special Counsel's investigation come to the floor for a vote. For the entirety of his "presidency," Republican leaders like McConnell and Sneaker of the House Paul "Lyin'" Ryan have enabled this cancer to assault the foundations of our system of government, to abuse power and destroy America's image and credibility in the world for what amounts to 30 pieces of silver. They had the same eyes and ears the rest of us have to witness the ugliness of their unfit leader yet chose to back him up and indulge him at every turn. They're every bit the un- indicted co-conspirators in Rump's rule of graft, greed, treason and criminality.
History won't be kind to Republicans for a whole host of reasons, but their continuing support for this manifestly unfit, treasonous mob boss will always be the worst of their transgressions. If/ when they jump ship, it will already be too late for them to escape history's judgement.
UPDATE: Republican weasels have coined a new phrase for the recent developments: "process crimes."
