Robert Mueller turns his attention to Russian contacts during the Republican convention.

Courtesy of Reuters:  

Investigators probing whether Donald Trump’s presidential campaign colluded with Russia have been questioning witnesses about events at the 2016 Republican National Convention, according to two sources familiar with Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s inquiries. 

Mueller’s team has been asking about a convention-related event attended by both Russia’s U.S. ambassador and Jeff Sessions, the first U.S. senator to support Trump and now his attorney general, said one source, who requested anonymity due to the ongoing investigation. 

Another issue Mueller’s team has been asking about is how and why Republican Party platform language hostile to Russia was deleted from a section of the document related to Ukraine, said another source who also requested anonymity. 

Mueller’s interest in what happened at the Republican convention in Cleveland, Ohio in July 2016, is an indication that Trump campaign contacts and actions related to Russia remain central to the special counsel’s investigation.

Personally I think that at this point the whole Republican party should be under investigation for obstructionism, and possible collusion with the Russians. 

They are either complicit with what Trump did during the campaign, or they were purposefully ignorant, adopting a kind of Sergeant Schultz attitude.

Sadly for the GOP that  is not an excuse that will go over well with Robert Mueller and his investigators.

    Or, the majority of American voters. They will not win reelection if they run (Trump could be impeached before then!). Pence is just as scary as Trump!

    If Mueller and or his team have refreshed themselves or recall the debates with Hillary and the dotard.
    Then they will certainly remember that that dotard had behaved in a manner consistent with someone that knew the fix was in.
    Yes, he was strutting around like a stupid peacock,because he knew that Hillary was being sabotaged.
    I hope they nail the fucker soon and very badly for him!! Trump the low rent pos!!!!!

      I will never forget Kellyanne Conway just hours before the election insisting that they were going to win. Not that she thought or hoped or believed they would win...

      ...just that they were going to win.

      I thought she sounded stupid at the time... I think, hope, believe, whatnot, that in the final analysis Trump has not been legitimately elected. Nobody on the Trump campaign nor Trump himself has a shred of morality, they'd stop at nothing to appease Putin.

      Several of his people predicted what states they would pull off upsets in and made creepy comments about knowing who to target.

      Also -- i hate when people say he didn't want to win or didn't think he would. If he didn't WANT to win, he would have let the two women speak out. But he did want to win ... Prolly because he HAD to win in order to fulfill his part of the deal with Putin. Probably over money.

      Yep, Trump had to cheat in order to win the Presidency. He is not the legitimate President IMO.

      Haha. Well. I saw footage of Donny sitting down and a look of shock. Was it acting? Nope. He just hoped Hillary would win, so he could settle debts and build abroad. Oops!

    The Rebublican Party gave away everything for asshole Trump. The party of so called family values has no standing left, they can't preach about family because Trump is a low life serial adulter.

    Melania Trump is an immigrant and a nude model, the hypocrisy is astounding.

    Who would have thought that such pent up hatred for a black President existed? and they played on it through Fox News who the idiots still believe, and they are still doing it! attacking victims of school shootings, attacking our young people who have had enough. Who are the adults here? And where are the so called grownups to back them up!

    Time to quit being passive. Marches our fine but we need to vote!

    👆🏻This is why many Republicans are not running and why many are so silent. They know they've already been caught up in Mueller's net. Hard to deny the truth when you get caught with the cash. And they're going to need every penny for attorneys' fees. Not that it will keep them out of Federal Prison.

      GeorgiaPeach, my dream is that the Trump & Kushner Mafia will be charged with tax fraud & convicted of laundering money. I enjoy a fantasy where the government will seize all of their assets and their stupid Trumpian asses will be broke, out on the street or wearing prison garb.

      AND Robert Mueller will become an American hero.

    ot

    This Twitter account claims to be USAF Medic/FemaleVet. They are posting @ 5:56 PM - 30 Mar 2018 a poor photoshop as if it is real. This is after Laura Ingraham was called out and apologized. David Hogg is so right not to accept an apology. The USAF Medic didn't trash a student, they used Emma4Change to make someone else look bad.


    Check this out:
    #Unnerved by this #photograph that should make everyone #SICK!
    Not only is this KID being #PoliticallyExploited, she's obviously UNCOMFORTABLE with the #sleazy, slobbery, old-man BREATH.....

    That was posted by @USAFmedicVET

    I hope more advertisers pull out on Ingraham and all the others.

    The Republican Party is making the United States look like a bunch of assholes.

    Our allies cant trust one word from our so called President because he changes his policies on a daily basis.He lies continually to us the American people and they know it.

    We as as a Nation have lost respect and now we our seen as an unstable Nation with a lot of fire power with an idiot at the helm.It scares the hell out of me and i bet it scares the hell out of them.

    The only way to verify the election results is to telephone every voter and confirm who they voted for. There's no other way.

    I have to wonder if the Russians had a hand in getting Trump the presidential election. There was a TON of RNC candidates running that were much more qualified and even more Christian conservative beliefs. As well as better family values, yet they all fell by the wayside one by one...

      In 2015, someone showed up.
      It would disrupt Russia.
      Back to the Future, so to speak. So Putin has to "do something" to prevent that.
      Haha. Not happening the way he hoped. Too bad so sad.
