Obstruction of justice is a great way to end up in jail. He's already being investigated. They probably have some idea of what he has already.
Both, but he should have known after being re-elected that he needed to drop trying to be friends with Repubs all the time. Just STAHP. Comey is like a confirmation that it was a horrible strategy that he wasted years of his Presidency on.
He's such a scumbag, prison is truly an ideal home for him...
What about a jive ass turkey? Roger stone for instance

Any Trump campaign member who didn't destroy evidence of Russian contacts months ago is a certified moron.
It's not the crime but the cover up. Destroying the evidence is what will get people serving prison time.

So there's tons of evidence?
Probably.

Hey NY Poligaf: do you guys think Teachout has any sort of future in electoral politics after losing last year? Do you think she has a rematch with Faso or Cuomo next year or goes for something in the state legislature or anything? I see right now that she's doing legal stuff wrt Trump violating the emoluments clause but I don't know NY politics well enough to know if she's going anywhere in the future.
Solid point. They do have a way of running their idiocy to its idiotic conclusions
No. The last time she went up against Cuomo she got crushed and it'd only be worse this go around given his apparent shift further left.
She's basically stuck in the district she ran in for the House and I don't know enough about it to say if she can make it into the Assembly or State Senate from that area, probably not though. It's supposed to be a D+1 district but she lost despite that (and despite Gillibrand, Cuomo, Schumer and evey other major NY Dem and Dem group endorsing her). I mean, if she actually stick around the district and tries to make a name for herself there maybe she could do it, but I don't think she's interested in that sort of politics.
EDIT: Hell, she seemingly moved into the district to run and moved right out after she lost. No one likes a carpetbagger.
I mean, I get why people like her ideologically, but in reading about the race...

Hmmm? Her Twitter bio still says she lives in Clinton, NY and I couldn't find anything about her moving out.
Good news to hear after my depressing political day. I wonder if roger stone could potentially be in trouble for something eventually?
Clinton is in the 21st Congressional District, not the 19th.

Wrong Clinton, she lives in Duchess County which is in the 19th. It's confusing though because you guys have so many of them! Maybe that's why Hillary was a natural fit for the state.
We've got a bunch of Clintons due to DeWitt, but she still moved into the area specifically to run. People tend to not like carpetbaggers and unless she's going to raise her profile in the district nothing else I said was off the mark. Ideology will only get you so far in a local election, you need to play to the electorate and unless she's learned how to do that since her last two races...

Oh yeah I'm not saying anything else you said here is wrong. I hope she does adapt, I've liked everything I've read from her and she's a good speaker to boot.
Before Bill there's been a few famous Clinton families in the US.
Actually, come to think of it all the famous Clintons I'm thinking of are all related. George Clinton was the 4th VP of the US, a founding father, and related to both other famous Clintons of the time. Odds are most of those counties are named for him.
Her best bet would be to hit the state senate or assembly and go up from there. I don't think she can win over that House seat, Faso's lived in that area and represented it on and off almost forever.

Can the Democrats ever take back patriotism from the Republicans? Even in New Jersey, when you see someone driving around with big American flags on his Ford (or whatever) truck, you can just automatically pinpoint they are about as hard right as Ted Nugent.
How do Democrats begin to form a strategy where they say... damnit you do NOT have to have to have an R in front of your name to love this country!

Political patriotism is basically just diet nationalism so no probably not.
Bernie was mathematically eliminated via popular vote months ahead of his official concession and he kept going on. He's not the same as Trump, but he definitely has the same goddamn reality evasion problem.
Economic anxiety is the easy way out people choose so that they can avoid facing the truth that the country is super racist.
'Rigged' and 'emails' is the easy way out people choose so that they can avoid facing the truth that Sanders lost the primary fair and square.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
Right at the start? Interesting to see what comes up with digging.
Bannon or Trump, I would think

Watch it again. He says but one working in the White House right now.

May contain jokes =>
He says, "I don't think there's any but one there that was under any type of investigation"
It almost sounds like a stumble or stutter, but it's enunciated pretty clearly. Not sure what to make of it.

Uhhh yes he does?
"If you look at the Trump administration, I don't think there's any, but one, there that's under any investigation at all."

Heard. Interesting how he snuck it in there. I was expecting it at the end but he slipped it in in the middle.
We took it back at the DNC.
That was some patriotic shit.
But that's the thing, Socially, if you want to take something back you've got to take it back, because nobody will give it to you.
Be proudly patriotic. Redefine patriotism as what the Democratic party currently looks like, and don't give any fucks when the Republicans get upset about that. The Democrats, what we are, our diversity, we are the American story. Fuck what Republicans say or think about it.
Democrats care way too much about what pisses Republicans off.

Maybe but he says "People working in the White House NOW."
Here are my guesses for people under investigation or surveillance no longer or never "in the White House" literally
Flynn, Manafort, Page, Stone
Edit: maybe Sessions, maybe Gordon?
In White House NOW
Trump or ??? I really can't think of one
It wouldn't matter, Republicans would paint them as secret commie operatives no matter how nationalistic they actually are. Because it benefits them to pull the other party even farther to the right to let themselves go more to the right.
Wouldn't you investigate pretty much everyone in the Whitehouse for basic security reasons. They might focus more on others like the new team but I would have thought it's obvious. I just don't see them picking Trump, Bannon but forget the rest or vice versa. It will be the whole lot but the investigation might only need a few in the beginning to get things moving and it spreads out from there.
I just find it highly unlikely they find anything concrete to pin on Trump and company related to Russia. None of it really required collusion to pull off, which means you're really looking for evidence of quid pro between Trump and Russia. The only thing that gives me hope is just how stupid all these people are, someone could have screwed up.
