Unfortunately probably not. That requires a vote of the cabinet, all of whom are Trumpian losers.

How many of them would back Trump, if Silver Mike called for a revolt? I suspect that if Mike called for it, they 90% would say, Truck Fump! How much loyalty do you think these pricks would have if they think Mike is going against him?

CNN reported Friday that special counsel Bob Mueller and a grand jury is filing charges against individuals and is seeking to obtain arrest warrants.

The individuals may not yet have been notified, and as such CNN was not able to release any names. However, arrests are expected Monday.

Given that Attorney General Jeff Sessions has recused himself, Rod Rosenstein will be the person who must approve the warrants. It’s unclear if the Justice Department was aware this week that arrests were expected. However, many commentators assumed the White House’s attacks on Hillary Clinton were a distraction from something forthcoming.

Wow. The delusion on this board is particularly thick.

First, the charges could just as easily be filed against a Podesta (either one will work), who was just added to the list of individuals being investigated.

Two, this special counsel was begun under false pretenses (Comey Leaking & Fusion GPS Dossier), and it's already suspect. Anyone actually convicted, will likely be pardoned and rightfully so.

If you're hoping for a significant conviction, or something impeachable on Trump. Let me splash some cold water on your hopes. It ain't gonna happen. This special counsel isn't going to deliver votes for Democrats.

What's now more likely...Hillary will be indicted. Debbie will follow. And the Democrats will still lose in the next election, because they inspire precisely no one...outside a few blue state cesspools.

And doesn't the timing of this stink? The Steele dossier was the bulk of the reason for the special counsel, and it's coming apart. The script is flipping entirely to implicate democrats, and suddenly he announces indictments (which mean nothing, really).

George Papadopoulos, the former Trump campaign aide who repeatedly tried to set up meetings with Russian government officials, has pleaded guilty to making false statements to FBI agents.

According to the indictment, Papadopoulos made his false statements to agents earlier this year in January. The former Trump campaign aide, who joined the campaign in March of 2016, made false statements about the nature of his contacts with Russian-linked figures.

“Papadopoulos claimed that his interactions with an overseas professor, who defendant Papadopoulos understood to have substantial connections to Russian government officials, occurred before [he] became a foreign policy adviser to the campaign,” the indictment (PDF) alleges.

The Manafort charges are straightforward and simple. Their sole purpose is to make Manafort and his colleague start talking. That's why the money laundering has been included; twenty years in the slammer is a lot of persuasion.

The questions are who, where, when gave Manafort his riding instructions, and who benefited. Everything else is speculation.

mong the fallout from the indictment of President Donald Trump’s disgraced former campaign Paul Manafort by special counsel Robert Mueller is news about his high potential for fleeing the country.

According to the The Washington Post, court filings show that Manafort has three passports. As NBC News reported, Manafort’s wealth and connections (as well as those of his deputy, Rick Gates) make him a “serious flight risk” as well.

The court filings also show that Manafort’s financial dealings are so shady, it’s unclear exactly how much money he has, owes, or is worth.

“Manafort’s financial holdings are substantial, if difficult to quantify precisely because of his varying representations,” the filings, as published by the Post, state. “The full extent of [his assets] is unclear.”

The former campaign chairman “reported $42 million in assets in March 2016; $136 million that May; and $28 million and $63 million that August, in two separate financial applications,” the Post‘s report continued.

Mueller finds that Manafort has three passports — and poses a ‘serious flight risk’

Perhaps he should be placed in a a secure facility to make sure he faces the court? I wouldn't want him to miss his day/s in court, this is America after all.
