Well they are following the Watergate playbook and if they want to keep with tradition Pence would have to end up like Nixons first vice president Spiro Agnew and resign under criminal charges.

This is actually starting to get really compelling. If it weren't my reality this show would be a smash hit.

Does this only effect Flynn? or does everyone get fucked because of this?

Nah it affects multiple people including the VP but they are turning the screws on him to get the others to fuck up. Btw Trump is reported to have stayed in contact with Flynn after he canned him despite his council urging him to end all contact. Trump is a very clumsy criminal because now Mueller can have those conversations subpoenaed and now Trump is part of this part of the investigation. He no doubt had been trying to create a cover story with Flynn.

Flynn would be the type they would try and flip. There are enough potentially criminal things he has done that they can hang over him to get him to squeal like a pig.

I knew it. A Gulenist plot to discredit Trump. Is there nothing this powerful cleric hasn't destroyed?

Would be interesting if Flynn recorded those conversations so he can try to use the tapes to obtain immunity. He requested immunity once before, so maybe he went out and got some chips to play with.

I wouldn't ascribe that much foresight and shrewdness to these people.

i kinda want to see a summary of all the parts moving over the past 5-6 days between kelly taking over, mcmaster getting to clean house, grand juries opening up, subpoenas rolling out ... you could almost squint and see an endgame here.

Considering Trump is still speed running the Nixon presidency, use that for a guideline. Mueller is applying more and more pressure with each passing day and Trump will only be on vacation for so long. I have imagine he's pretty tempted to pull a Saturday Night Massacre type event right now.

I pray for Sessions to be in those documents. Speaking of which, can Mueller indict Sessions?

I imagine Pence is definitely going to be in there in some capacity.

If he can than why wasn't he charged for the 2nd time for perjury?

Can indict =/= willing to indict. Charging the Attorney General requires an immense amount of political will. If anything, Mueller would leave that decision to Congress because Sessions lied before them. They'd deliver an impeachment, though, not an indictment.

Gotcha. Thanks for the info. Its maddening how Dems aren't pushing for that. I guess it's useless for them since they have no power.
