House Intelligence Committee member on the Russia-Trump investigation: 'There is more than circumstantial evidence now'
The months-long investigation into potential ties between associates of President Donald Trump and Russia has taken several pivotal turns just this week. The existence of the ongoing, multipronged inquiry was confirmed by FBI Director James Comey during a congressional hearing on Monday.
And before Wednesday, there had been no public acknowledgement from US lawmakers or the intelligence community of concrete evidence tying Trump or his associates to collusion with the Kremlin. But in an interview on MSNBC on Wednesday, Rep. Adam Schiff, the California Democrat who is ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee, said of the investigation: "There is more than circumstantial evidence now."
Schiff declined to go into specifics when pressed by host Chuck Todd.
"But I will say there is evidence that is not circumstantial," Schiff said, "and it is very much worthy of investigation."
Schiff's comments echo a CNN report published Wednesday evening that cited unnamed US officials who told the network the FBI had information indicating people associated with Trump may have coordinated with suspected Russian operatives on the release of information damaging to Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election.
The information includes "human intelligence, travel, business and phone records and accounts of in-person meetings," CNN reported, citing its sources.
Russia-related inquiries are underway within the House and Senate Intelligence committees, the FBI, and the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Rep. Devin Nunes, the chair of the House Intelligence Committee, threw a huge wrench into the matter on Wednesday when he confirmed some information was "incidentally collected" on members of the Trump transition team before Trump's inauguration.
The revelation came amid Trump's weeks-long wiretapping crusade, which started when he used Twitter to accuse the Obama administration of wiretapping Trump Tower before the election. The Trump administration has since explained the tweets as referring only to a suspicion that Trump was being surveiled generally, and Trump appeared to take Nunes' unexpected announcement as vindicating of his unproven claims.
Several associates of Trump have been at the center of the ongoing Russia investigation, including former campaign manager Paul Manafort, former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, longtime Trump confidant Roger Stone, and former Trump adviser Carter Page.
The Trump White House has repeatedly denied any untoward involvement with Russia during the election.
His "reckoning" is coming and soon.... bet that "commie" lover is out of there before Christmas
then you "trumpies" can really cry in your beer.... although by then he will have done enough damage surely even you people can see it!

There's One Reason Devin Nunes Stepped in Front of the Microphones Today
WASHINGTON-When last we saw Congressman Devin Nunes, the hapless chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, he was plaintively asking FBI director James Comey to please hurry up with the FBI's probe into possible connections between the Trump campaign and the tangled web of Russian kleptocrats and autocrats that passes for a government over there. He begged Comey to disperse "the big gray cloud" that was hanging over the White House.
On Wednesday, Nunes did everything he could to make the cloud bigger and thicker. From Bloomberg:
House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes said Wednesday that the U.S. intelligence community collected multiple conversations involving members of Donald Trump's transition team after he won the election last year. After making his disclosure at the Capitol, Nunes headed to the White House to brief the president on what he had learned. Trump then told reporters gathered for an unrelated event that "I somewhat do" feel vindicated by the latest development. "I very much appreciate the fact that they found what they found."
A whole passel of folks leaped to the electric Twitter machine to explain that Nunes' statement was complete moonshine. And, anyway, what in the name of Henry Clay is Nunes doing briefing the White House on anything? Ostensibly, the committee he chairs is conducting its own investigation into this entire megillah. Why bring a piece of it to the guy whose operatives, past and present, may be the targets of both your investigation, and that of the FBI? And shouldn't we all be a little alarmed that a congresscritter with a security clearance extending into the ionosphere is babbling intelligence information into a bank of microphones?
There's one reason there in the last sentence of the above Bloomberg passage, and that reason was amplified on Wednesday afternoon by Sean Spicer, White House marionette. He leaped to pronounce the president* vindicated by Nunes' remarks, which I would venture a guess was the entire reason Nunes wandered in front of the microphones in the first place. All the president* cares about is seeing his name and the word "vindicated" in reasonable proximity tomorrow morning on some front page or cable news chyron.
I hate to keep drawing the Watergate analogies, but this impresses me as the modern equivalent of Nixon's lunatic proposal to let ancient Senator John Stennis listen to the subpoenaed White House tapes and report his findings to the country. Strong men have been fatally wounded in the hunt for the elusive alibi.

GOP House intel chair Nunes under fire for remarks on surveillance of Trump team
(UPI) -- As part of a broad collection effort, U.S. intelligence operatives had gathered information on members of President Donald Trump's transition team for at least three months after he was elected in November, a top Republican House committee chairman said Wednesday -- a disclosure that might now backfire on the GOP lawmaker. Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., told reporters that he has seen intelligence reports that acknowledge surveillance of Trump's transition team was done "incidentally" -- and "legally" -- in recent months. Nunes said word of the surveillance came after he made a request for information as part of the House Intelligence Committee's investigation of accusations by ...

Time will tell if Trump ever gets impeached. Undoubtedly should that ever occur it'd be a party at the @subhub174014 household for sure. And thanks for omitting parts of my prior message in your quote, but for those who read this thread if they are curious about what I wrote they can always go back and read it for themselves or check it out here:

That is a pretty stupid metric. By your logic, Justin Bieber has the support of the entire population of the Western Hemisphere since his "Baby" music video has 1.5 billion views.

Trump is currently polling at around 37% popularity, so unless there is a silent majority of Trumpsters who lie on opinion polls, I'm gonna say that there is no silent majority for Trump. Trump won because of things like Transgender bathrooms, gay cakes, Scalia's death, Hillary insane unpopularity, her terribly run campaign, and the low voting rates of key Democratic groups largely influenced by voter suppression efforts. Even then, he still lost the popular vote by the largest margin ever and only won due to flipping a handful of usually blue states by razor thin margins. There is absolutely no evidence to support the idea that a majority of Americans, silent or not, support Trump.
Trump just got a lesson in politics today
the same group that got rid of Boehner..... sank his health care hopes.... and will sink his infrastructure plans also
but then he will be impeached by then anyway
but he WILL be around long enough to help the right get all those tax cuts and bullshit they have been trying to pass for a while... after they get what they want... they don't need him... and his ego/tweets/lies/etc

Trump's approval rating craters in poll — and his base is the culprit
President Donald Trump's approval rating has fallen to 37% — a new low, according to a Quinnipiac University national poll released Wednesday.
The poll found the president to be losing crucial support among Republicans, men, and white voters.
The survey of 1,056 voters from across the US found that Trump's approval among Republican voters dropped to 81%, from 91% of those surveyed in a similar Quinnipiac poll two weeks ago. His disapproval rating among that group jumped to 14% from 5%.
The poll showed those in Trump's most supportive demographics — male and white voters — to be increasingly unhappy with his performance. Forty-three percent of men approved of Trump — down from 49% in the most recent poll, while 44% of white voters approved, also down from 49%.
"Most alarming for President Donald Trump, the demographic underpinnings of his support, Republicans, white voters, especially men and those without a college degree, are starting to have doubts," the assistant director of the poll, Tim Malloy, said in a statement.
A large majority of those polled — 70% — did not believe Trump's unsubstantiated claims from Twitter that President Barack Obama wiretapped his phones before the 2016 election. The administration has continued to stand by the accusation, even after FBI Director James Comey told Congress on Monday that the FBI had "no information" to support it.
Seventy-three percent of voters said Trump and his administration made statements without supporting evidence "very often" or "somewhat often."
Voters also showed increasing doubt in Trump's honesty and leadership. Sixty percent of respondents thought Trump was dishonest, compared with 55% in the March 7 poll, and 57% thought he didn't care about average Americans.
Trump has denounced low approval ratings as "fake news" and dismissed polls in January that showed he would be the lowest-rated incoming president in modern history. The Real Clear Politics average of 11 major polls puts Trump's approval rating at 42.8% and his disapproval rating at 51.3%.

once again... the morons are on the loose.
the deal maker.... couldn't make the deal...... right now he is 0-for on campaign promises!
Trump wants to blame the Dems for the defeat.....hahaha.... he couldn't pass it in his own party they out number the dems.... besides he doesn't care about health care... it was just a campaign issue... he only cares about tax breaks for him and his friends.... as pres he is supposed to represent all the people.... but has yet to do so
also if they really wanted to fix health care.... a good start would be to change the law that lets people buy ins across state lines.... or do something to get more ins companies on board....but they are not interested in fixing... they just want to do away with it.... and help their friends get a break!
but some of those conservatives listened to those town hall meetings.... and saw the handwriting on the wall
after the dems put aca in they took a big hit in the elections.... and the right knows that... although now people have changed their mind on the aca....those conservatives saw what would happen
the only thing that will save his bacon on infrastructure is.... the DEMS.... they will help on that... enough to overdue the freedom caucus!
and naturally the right will work with him all he wants on the tax deal!

just thinking out loud... but ... wonder if all these Russian dissidents being killed here lately... is a message to Trump
I'm sure he made some promises to P U T I N for the help with the election... he didn't drop the sanctions... and we now have a troop build up over there... 2 things that have to piss P u t I n off!
I'm sure Stone and Flynn and the others are not going to talk without some kind of deal... they do not want espionage charges.... but the old saying is... follow the money!..... trump is good at hiding that... and there are a lot of questions on his campaign money...and that is still being looked at.... but check to see if those people all of a sudden got large amounts of money!

Things could get rougher for Trump. It might not be totally relevant to this thread, but seeing that you mention a Canadian singer like Justin Bieber, I feel like I can draw an analogy with a certain premier in my province of Ontario in Canada up for re-election next year. With all of the blunders she's done she's 12% in the polls yet she's still holding onto power by her fingernails.
( https://www.thestar.com/news/queens...er-warns-liberals-face-election-disaster.html )
Should she somehow win at 12% in the polls, undoubtedly Trump can pull off a similar miracle in America somehow with his polling numbers triple that of my premier.
Moreover, as an American example Gallup (a polling agency) recorded lower polling numbers than Trump ( at 37% you cited ) at points during G.W. Bush's presidency yet he was never impeached?
( http://www.gallup.com/poll/116500/presidential-approval-ratings-george-bush.aspx or ( google "GW Bush polling" and look at the first listing ))
If G.W. Bush can pull off serving his period in the White House, certainly Trump can too.
