Speaking of subpoenas here are the others also being asked to testify in the Russia investigations.

 Courtesy of The Hill: 

Special counsel Robert Mueller has interviewed a cybersecurity expert who claims he was "recruited to collude with the Russians" in the 2016 election, Business Insider reported Tuesday. 

Matt Tait, a former information security specialist for Britain's Government Communications Headquarters was interviewed weeks ago by Mueller, according to a source familiar with the investigation. 

Tait claimed that he was recruited by a longtime GOP operative tied to the Trump campaign, Peter W. Smith, to obtain emails deleted from Hillary Clinton's private email server that they believed were hacked by the Russians. 

Smith reportedly told people during his investigation that he was affiliated with President Trump's former national security adviser, Michael Flynn.

Actually Mueller and his team have been quite busy.

Courtesy of Politico: 

President Donald Trump’s former press secretary Sean Spicer met with special counsel Robert Mueller's team on Monday for an interview that lasted much of the day, according to multiple people familiar with the meeting. 

During his sitdown, Spicer was grilled about the firing of former FBI director James Comey and his statements regarding the firing, as well as about Trump’s meetings with Russians officials including one with Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov in the Oval Office, one person familiar with the meeting said.

Spicer was essentially that "fly on the wall" that we talk about who overhears everything, even things he should not be hearing.

And considering how he was treated there is no reason to think he is not perfectly willing to share all that he knows. 

And speaking of flies on the wall let's not forget that Mueller has already interviewed Reince Priebus.

Former adviser Carter Page has also been subpoenaed by the Senate Intelligence Committee. He of course has already spilled his guts to the FBI.

Yep things are most definitely heating up.

Is it any wonder that Trump is trying to get the whole thing shut down?

    dumba$$! "just before the Wall Street Journal reported he had mounted a campaign to try to get Hillary Clinton’s mythical “33,000 deleted emails” from Russian hackers? The same guy who bragged he was BFFs with Michael Flynn and his son, “Pizzagate Junior”?

    Not to change the subject,

    "As President Trump has repeatedly said, we stand with our fellow citizens," she said. "We're here to help and get them back on their feet.”

    I'm confused. Didn't Trump basically tell Puerto Rico they're on their own and they can't keep depending on the American government?

    "We cannot keep FEMA, the Military & the First Responders, who have been amazing (under the most difficult circumstances) in P.R. forever!" Trump said on Twitter last week.




    Puerto Rico Gov. Ricardo Rosselló will visit the White House on Thursday as the island struggles to rebuild in the wake of devastating hurricanes.

    “We will be welcoming Gov. Rosselló of Puerto Rico to the White House to talk about the ongoing recovery and rebuilding efforts,” press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told reporters at the daily news briefing.

    “We will continue working hand in hand with local leaders in all areas of our country that have been impacted by several natural disasters in recent months," she added.

    Trump has been criticized by Democrats who say the federal response was slow and that the president has not shown the same amount of attention to those in Puerto Rico as he has to those who were impacted by hurricanes that struck Texas and Florida earlier this year.

    Some have also said that Trump has lacked empathy by criticizing Puerto Rico’s existing infrastructure and debt problems and saying Puerto Ricans need to do more to assist his administration's recovery efforts.

    "We cannot keep FEMA, the Military & the First Responders, who have been amazing (under the most difficult circumstances) in P.R. forever!" Trump said on Twitter last week.

    Total change of subject here,but I couldn't resist...
    Check out Duhkota's Instagram page where he posted a picture of himself with his "#hotwife," (making a typical duck face)he uses that term (as well as "milf") in a hashtag at the end. Then look up hotwife on Urban dictionary. It's basically a married woman who makes herself sexually available to other men,usually with her husband's consent and/or knowledge.
    Even his fans are telling him he should remove that hashtag.
    For such a hip,young couple,you would think they have heard this jargon before?
    Seriously though,how freaking ironic! 🤣

      Who cares? Gryphen's post is about Mueller's investigation. Start your own blog if you want to keep changing the subject and posting articles unrelated to the discussion.

      Dakota is just another performer and he is doing his part for Putin. Even if he is too stupid to get it.

      You know how Sarah is a Gold Star Mother fan, she and Dakota will be all over what happened with La David Johnson's wife and Trump. They need to work it so they can pay off Bristol with more Louis Vuitton products.

    Really...how disrespectful.
    My Husband thinks I'm pretty hot but if he used those words to describe me on his social media accounts I would be mortified.
    How trashy.
    I'm sure she's flattered though. She doesn't know any better. Sarah obviously never taught her daughter to know that it's not ok for a man (not even your own husband) to treat her with such disrespect.

    OT:" HHS division responsible for the care of undocumented minors refused to allow her to attend multiple abortion appointments, according to court documents. They instead sent her a crisis pregnancy center, which counsels women against abortions and notified her mother in Central America that she was pregnant."
