    Did you find that he owns property in Russia in his FEC disclosures? Read all 100 pages. This is bone chilling hard core harassment of the president.

    What is your basis (and support) to assert congressional subpoenas have less standing from those of grand juries. My experience is that prosecutors don't actually issue subpoenas, but they get warrants.

    In Trump's case Mueller and Barr agreed that any indictment of Trump should come from congressional investigation, and Trump could only be tried under impeachment and not in federal court.

    Absurd. But that's the kabuki theater of American Politics.

    Mueller's report is sad from a prosecuting standpoint. There's fundamentally no difference between what Mueller did and what the St. Louis district attorney did, except the St. Louis DA was smart enough not to release an entire report of degrading information on the police officer.

    The report hurt more than helped, and that might be the most disappointing part of it.

    So, guilty until proven innocent? LMFAO!

    That's not how it works in the United States.

    In the United States, you are innocent until proven guilty.

    Actually, it's more like the Democrats will dig to the center of the earth to find Trump's crimes, and if they don't find it they'll dig even further to the magma core of the earth. While I'm upset with it, I know this to be the behavior leading up to 2020.

    All American banks are dependent on the Federal Reserve system. They don't have a lot of choice in the matter.

    You're talking future tense I am talking now they have all been government officials far longer than has Trump. Unless they also release all their banking and financial records they are hypocrites.

    They don't give up their rights to due process. So when will all the Democrat candidates start releasing all their financial records and those of their children and staffs?

    He's suing to protect the presidency from unconstitutional congressional interference.

    What don't you know about the Democratic Candidates that you'd like to know? They've released their taxes. Their income is documented - what do you want to know?

    Congress and the Courts have final say on what's Constitutional - not the President.
