The House Intelligence Committee ends its Russia investigation

March 12, 2018

  According to this story the The House Intelligence Committee is ending its investigation into alleged collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia and they have found no evidence of collusion. Here is more:

The House Intelligence Committee is shutting down its contentious investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election, the top Republican leading the probe announced on Monday.

The committee will interview no more witnesses and Republicans are in the process of preparing their final report, Rep. Mike Conaway (R-Texas) told reporters. A draft of that roughly 150-page report will be delivered to committee Democrats for review on Tuesday. 

The draft document asserts that there is no evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russians, the most politically charged question examined by the committee.

“We found no evidence of collusion,” Conaway said Monday. “We found perhaps some bad judgment, inappropriate meetings, inappropriate judgment in taking meetings — but only Tom Clancy could take this series of inadvertent contacts, meetings, whatever, and weave that into some sort of a spy thriller that could go out there.”

Further, he said, “we couldn’t establish the same conclusion that the CIA did that they specifically wanted to help Trump.”

  This story is still far from over and I expect it to drag into the 2018 mid-term election. I read elsewhere that the Democrats on the House Committee are drafting their own document which will claim that not all relevant witnesses were interviewed. And the Senate Intelligence Committee is still investigating as is the Robert Mueller Special Counsel.

  It does look to me as if Robert Mueller has moved beyond the collusion aspect of the investigation, which would be a good sign for the President, and is instead focusing on obstruction of justice and the financial transactions with Russia of some people who are connected to Donald Trump, and four people still remain under indictment.

    About time!
    It was all a ‘big sham’ to begin w/ by the ‘evils that be’ who call themselves ‘Americans’.
    Let them be sentences by JUSTICE and “PAY” all the fees that accrued for that ‘worthless’ and ‘Lying’ stage show of morons!!
    BUT, you’re probably right they’ll just add more 💩 on what they’ve already started ~ what ugly and sickening dark souls of 👺👎
    Proverbs 26:3 A whip for the horse, a bridle for the ass, and a rod for the fool’s back.
    Isaiah 32:5 The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl said to be bountiful.
    Proverbs 18:12 Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility.
    In other words, they’re very bad people and one day will get what’s coming to them! sooner than later 🙏👏

      Yeah, this was good news but it is still not over. These people will never give up. You are right, someday they will get what they have coming to them.

    Maybe Myeller needs to extend the scope of his investigation to include members of the House Intelligence Committee. But then again with Hookergate gaining steam Mueller may get permission from his handlers to close down his investigation.
