House intelligence chair announces sweeping investigation into Trump's finances and Russia

Oh look, it’s the guy under investigation for leaks starting another round of wasteful bullshit investigations just so this rotten lying chickenshit can keep his face in front of the cameras. And this has NOTHING to do with RUSSIA and everything to do with trying to bring down Trump.

House intelligence chair announces sweeping investigation into Trump's finances and Russia

CNN) House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff announced Wednesday a broad investigation his committee would undertake "beyond Russia" into whether President Donald Trump's financial interests are driving his actions.

Schiff said the investigation would "allow us to investigate any credible allegation that financial interests or other interests are driving decision-making of the President or anyone in the administration."

"That pertains to any credible allegations of leverage by the Russians or the Saudis or anyone else," Schiff told reporters after the House Intelligence Committee's first meeting in the new Congress.

In a statement, Schiff said the investigation would include a continued probe into Russia's actions during the 2016 election and contacts between the Russia and Trump's team, as well as an examination of "whether any foreign actor has sought to compromise or holds leverage, financial or otherwise, over Donald Trump, his family, his business, or his associates."

Schiff said the investigation, which could involve additional congressional committees, would also look at whether Trump or his associates have "sought to influence US government policy in service of foreign interests" and any potential obstruction into the various investigations.

This miserable shit is going to try to run for president, mark my words. This is a bunch of renegade sore losers with plenty to hide themselves trying to drive an ELECTED president out of office. This is OPEN sedition. This is amazing, and not in a good way.

Israel just got the senate to rescind our right to boycott their business because we don't want to deal with criminals who commit crimes against humanity.

NYC is going to investigate Trump's Scotland golf course to see if Russia is laundering money through it. When will congress investigate the Clinton's foundation for fraud and Hillary's breaking the emoluments clause during her tenure as SOS?

Which AIPAC/MIC/pharma/bank bought politician are you going to vote for? Don’t be surprised when nothing changes.

this crap out until the 2020 election. They HAVE to. First, because Mueller didn’t come up with Jack, but they need to find SOMETHING so they can cover their own tracks. Second: because if the truth comes out and Trumps wins again, they’re really in a pickle.

BTW, I think I found Shifty’s official House portrait

dramatic. Rich tax cheat vs Rich Treasonous Bastid.

The PTB have been beating us over the head with threats about those damn RUSSIANS! since the end of WWII. I remember getting up really early on Saturday morning to watch cartoons and they didn’t start until about 7 am (tv wasn’t available 24-hours a day, believe it or not). I remember getting up and watching shows totally dedicated to WWII serial footage. I think one was called Victory Parade (or something close). There were others. I’m totally immune to the threats about RUSSIANS. Between Saturday morning and hiding under my damn desk during an ‘air raid drill’ to this latest crap, I’ve heard it all.
