DAYS UNTIL MID-TERM BALLOTS ARE DUE: 102


PROTECT THE TRUMP/RUSSIA INVESTIGATION

AS THE GOP TURNS UP THE HEAT


Trump is trying to distract us from the inexorable progress of the Trump/Russia investigation, handled not just by Mueller, but by other areas of the DOJ. Trump:

  • Colluded with Putin in plain sight in Helsinki
  • Sided with Putin about election interference, walked that back, then walked back the walk-back!
  • Said Putin’s absurd proposal to question Ambassador McFaul was an “interesting idea”
  • Lied about the Carter Page FISA applications
  • Invited Putin to Washington, then after near-universal condemnation, “postponed” it until next year
  • Asserted that Russia will interfere in the 2018 elections to help Democrats!

Greg Walden remains loyal to Trump!

Other GOP leaders joined Trump in undermining the rule of law by:

  • Seeking to impeach Rosenstein to provide cover for Trump to fire him
  • Refusing to pass legislation to safeguard the Midterms
  • Lying about the FISA applications

Trump and Putin alone know what was said at the “secret summit.” The Trump/Russia investigation will reveal how Trump is compromised. The Manafort trial begins next week. Maria Butina—accused Russian agent with ties to the NRA—is jailed. Cohen’s vast trove of information will inevitably come to light.

Protect Rosenstein and Mueller! 

Complete the Investigation!
