Donald Trump Jr. Expecting to Be Indicted by Mueller Soon

Last year, Donald Trump Jr. testified that he never informed his father of a meeting with Russian officials promising “dirt” on Hillary Clinton. It seemed hard to believe that the ne’er-do-well son would neglect to seek credit for his expected campaign coup from the father whose approval he so obviously craves. And now it seems that Robert Mueller has obtained proof that it is not in fact true. The Trump family lies all the time, of course, but doing it under oath is a crime.

Two days ago, Gabriel Sherman reported that White House officials are concerned about Donald Jr. “I’m very worried about Don Jr.,” a former West Wing official told Sherman, who fears Mueller will be able to prove perjury. Deep in a report about Trump’s 2020 campaign plans, Politico drops the news this morning that Trump Jr. “has told friends in recent weeks that he believes he could be indicted.”

If it’s what you’re saying, we love it.

* aka spawn of the republican Draft-Dodger-in-Chief


The republicans' darkside partners in crime, russian BLACK OPS, significantly screwed around with our election again this year. Meanwhile republicans stuck their heads up their asses, and did not lift a finger to slow the russian attacks down, or to protect and defend the integrity of US democracy.

Article in this morning's New York Times ON Russian Meddling in the Midterms.

They haven’t stopped trying to influence our elections.

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/11/06/opinion/midterm-elections-russia.html?emc=edit_th_181107&nl=todaysheadlines&nlid=479430271107

"...a senior analyst for our cybersecurity company, suggests that while these measures may have rendered some of the Russian tactics of 2016 less effective, they haven’t fully stopped Russian influence operations. In many instances, they seem to have merely caused Russia to shift or develop new tactics...

"Indeed, our company is currently detecting more overall activity in real time from continuing Russian online influence operations targeting the midterm elections than has been disclosed by social media platforms or detected by researchers during the same period before the election in 2016..."

@MichaelAvenatti
.@DonaldJTrumpJr - in the coming hrs & days, I want you to remember all of the people you crapped on over the yrs - women, minorities, POC, HRC, etc. All those you stepped on on the way “up.” Because you are about to pass them on the way down. And we’re here for ALL of it. #Basta
