... per the memo ...

"Second, Cohen provided the SCO with useful information concerning certain discrete Russia-related matters core to its investigation that he obtained by virtue of his regular contact with Company executives during the campaign. "

He most definitly is.

"discrete Russia-related matters core to its investigation" that seems like a weird way of saying Russian collusion, is it not possible that they are using cryptic sentences to prepare you for disappointment?

People still think Trump Russia collusion happened?

I thought that was just a 2017 trend

Many people do yes

Interesting

Well they would be making an assumption that such conclusion would be disappointing to me, and I dont think they know I exist...lol. I'm kidding about that, kind of.

It's a safe educated guess to say that they're choice of words is certain to be referring to investigation of either the government of Russia making efforts to disrupt our processes, atleast electoral ones, and/or the campaign of Donald Trump having participated in a conspiracy in respect to such efforts

I suspect the people at the top of the intelligence community know that russia's game was never to steal/blackmail the president, only to raise questions about their ability to do so

Their campaign was effectively orchestrated and russia acomplished what they set out to do.

It simply comes off as a huge distraction to me that makes me wonder, why the need to make it a focus?

Because this is something which cannot be ignored

People need to have faith in their democracy or it will not function.

"It" being the uk investigation ?

Minus the uk

That w as a typo

The muller investigation yes

Yes

It was given the widest scope possible because they didnt want any doubt to remain in people's minds

Have you ever heard Mueller speak?

So what happens when it concludes with no collusion between trump and Russia?

They hardly saying shit dude

Certainly no one will doubt that

They’ll say, thanks for trinity Mueller, we 100% believe you

trying*

Well I would assume at that point even more damnjng evidence will be produced related to just russia efforts

Doubt it

How they feel about it is irrelevant. What matters is their faith in the government and the institutions.

Are you saying that in terms of their POV?

Or that’s how things should be for all?

Im saying that from the view point of the government trying to keep the people on board with democracy

How they feel about the outcome of the investigation does not matter. What matters is that the government has shown they are willing to police themselves no matter who is accused of a crime.

This will not always be the case, but it is a very public example which will remain in people's minds for decades after it is over.

It’s only happening because it’s allowed to happen

I'm not following you Hultin

Hulton

What do you mean ?

The way you’re wording that is as if government is a person that is saving its reputation and it’s auditing itself to save face

It comes off like a script in a sitcom

Like the Netflix show Designated Survivor

Perhaps I’m misunderstanding the context though

The government is composed of multiple branches and departments , that are intended to check one another. It's been constructed to by any imaginable situation , to not have the privelage of investigating itaelf
