i'm going to tippytoe out here on this trembling limb, and speculate?

i don't often speculate out loud ... but i'm curious...
now that we have learned about Ukraine, phone calls, who's listening in, and where these other players are, physically on the globe, Italy,and what they are seeking... Biden, 2016, Ukraine, Russian interference, conspiracy, 2016, and mowing down info at
every getgo,
is it possible Barr and Pompeo are attempting to scrub info about
2016? Instead of investigating?
we all have seen how this Orange asshole has projected his every move no matter how nefarious in the past.. are the latest efforts just a scrub mission,, now that they've realized the jig is up?
🤔

this is the kinda thinking that keeps me up a nite a little bit ... until i realize
nothing, NOTHING is beyond the pale for these criminals... so i guess it's
just Karma checking in?
and by Karma i mean the rule of law, Pelosi and the Impeachment Inquiry and
every damn detail coming to light... and tomorrow's urgent collective DoS and Congressional committees, and Pelosi and Schiff's news conference,
and lions and tigers and bears, oh my !!

my limb just snapped a little bit 😳

"Après moi, le déluge."

Basically, "when I'm outta here, all hell breaks loose." Considering that his successor got his head chopped off, I'd say his assessment was accurate.

Now, I'm not advocating anything that drastic for our Trumpanzees. Rotting away in prison for 20 years with no chance of parole or giving interviews would suit me just fine.

You meant to say "me too (moi aussi) " and not "me Australian."

Right?

I said to my husband that the White House has the shredders running 24/7 right now. Presidential Records be damned. They are destroying as much evidence as they can!

but it doesn't matter

trump can be impeached based on what he admitted to saying in the phone call readout.

after he is out of office, the fraud committed in the tax returns or bank loans (or both) will put him in jail along with many others.

7. They can't scrub info.

It exists in very many places.

I've seen an occasional movie that purports to have someone completely removed from the public record, but that's simply not possible and hasn't been for a very long time now. Other people have electronic copies of whatever. You can't pull every single high school yearbook that shows someone. And so on.

I think the underlying problem is that those who might think they can remove all information about whatever simply don't understand how things work anymore.

desperate as they are, and knowing the clock is ticking - and as stupidly, openly criminal as they are - it actually seems really plausible to me that’s exactly what they’re doing. Making last minute, desperate attempts at making “deals” to bury information abroad.

(Intelligence Community). They have long memories and if I were into gambling, I'd put my money on the spooks as they are so much smarter than the Orange Menace and his cabal.

10. Multiple State Dept Whistle Blowers ?
Wed Oct 2, 2019, 03:56 AM
Oct 2019

Are they preparing to blow their whistles on Ukraine - and the ensuing coverup ? ...That's my best guess.... The circumstancial evidence seems to point in that direction …..The IG has the key incriminating documents in his possession and will disclose their contents, in summarized form , to the relevant House staffers - in just a few hours ….. What else could it be ?
