Trump In Charge and Conspired to Collude

The news this morning is about Trump's lawyers arguing that the President has supreme power over justice in America and can do as he wishes. The counter-argument is that "no one is above the law," and that the rule of law prevails. Citizens must demand that the matter is resolved in Court as this is the Constitutional crisis on which American Democracy depends.

The evidence is clear. Donald Trump ruled his campaign. Members of the campaign performed assorted illegal acts while under his command for which he is fully responsible.

In yet another instance confirming this, observe that Donald Trump dictated the misleading statement made by "Junior" about the Trump Tower meeting with Russian representatives. Donald Trump is at the heart of the insurgency that undermines our Constitution, the oath of office, and America's pluralistic democratic republic.

Without forgiveness or excuse, the US Congress must impeach Donald Trump and rid the government of those who participated in the obstruction of justice, and that includes the Congressional Republican leadership.

The facts are before you.

"CNN)In a confidential letter to special counsel Robert Mueller in January, President Donald Trump's legal team acknowledged for the first time that Trump "dictated" the first misleading statement put out about his son's controversial 2016 meeting with Russians at Trump Tower. 

"You have received all of the notes, communications, and testimony indicating that the President dictated a short but accurate response to the New York Times article on behalf of his son, Donald Trump, Jr.," the letter said, according to The New York Times, which published a copy of it. "His son then followed up by making a full public disclosure regarding the meeting, including his public testimony that there was nothing to the meeting and certainly no evidence of collusion." 

The acknowledgment was tucked away in the letter, which largely focused on defending Trump from a potential subpoena for testimony and asserted broad executive powers to avoid a high-stakes interview with Mueller. The letter, which CNN previously reported on, was signed by Trump's attorneys at the time, John Dowd and Jay Sekulow. Dowd left the legal team in March, while Sekulow continues representing the President. 

The misleading statement, issued in July 2017 to The New York Times, obfuscated the true nature of the June 2016 meeting at Trump Tower, which was attended by Donald Trump Jr., then-Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort, Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner, who is now a senior White House adviser, and a group of Kremlin-tied Russians."
