Obstructing an investigation into the possible committing of treason, would be my guess, but I'm not an attorney. If Benghazi was worthy of several investigations, surely with this new information about Flynn, this Russian influence topic is worthy of at least one good investigation.

He tendered his resignation, Trump will replace the employee who misled the administration with another candidate.
Just like a business, if the employee says he can do something or didn't do something and you find out he's incapable or did do it and the result is compromising to the business then it's Hasta la vista .....

The Russians ( or any outside entity. ) only have influence if they are allowed to have it.

The MSM media is making hay over something that happens everyday in business and has happened with all previous administrations.

That's what I thought. By your own admission you're "not an attorney" and therefore can't tell us if it's against the law to speak to foreign leaders. You can ignore the precedence for doing so all you like.

Dude, as I said, you responded to what you thought I was talking about, not what I actually was talking about. You'll have to review my comments to find your mistake.

Negotiating policy with foreign leaders by private citizens not reporting to the President is a crime.

( Making arrangements to interfere with an election is a crime. )

WHO MADE SUCH ARRANGEMENTS...... Mr Spola ??????

The law is not espola's strong point. But mostly because he doesn't read.

ESPN sued for wrongful termination by announcer after Venus Williams match call

When will they learn?

A veteran ESPN announcer sued the sports network Monday for firing him during the Australian Open over accusations that he had used an ethnic slur against tennis superstar Venus Williams.

Doug Adler, who began working for ESPN in 2008 covering the world’s biggest tennis matches, came under fire for a comment on Jan. 18 when he said Williams used “the guerrilla effect.” The comment went viral because it was pushed along by the New York Times on twitter labeling it as the “appalling” term “gorilla,” which “ignited the flames of anger and hatred” against Adler, the lawsuit said.

Adler was fired two days later.

He claims he was using a well-known term to describe aggressive play yet ESPN has destroyed his career.

“By the way ESPN chose to handle this non-issue, they effectively branded me, my character and my reputation for the rest of my life,” Adler told FoxNews.com.

Adler “has lost future opportunities in the sporting and business worlds because no one will hire a ‘racist,’” the lawsuit said. “He has suffered serious emotional distress and harm because he has been falsely accused of being the worst thing imaginable, and something he clearly isn’t and never has been, all over the use of the word ‘guerilla,’ a word that is commonly used in tennis.”

In addition to wrongful termination, Adler is also claiming intentional and negligent infliction of emotional distress and economic hardship. The suit also names ESPN Senior Vice President Mark Gross and Vice President Jamie Reynolds. It seeks unspecified damages.
 
Just a dreamer looking for a better way of life I am sure.

Police: Indiana Grandfather Killed by Drunk, Illegal Alien Without Driver's License
By all accounts David Kriehn, of Noblesville, Indiana was a good person. He was a gentle man and caring man.

“A good person,” Harry Straut told television station WTHR. “They guy you liked to hang out with as well as work with.”

Mr. Kriehn was a former missionary – who managed Famous Dave’s, a popular barbecue joint near Indianapolis.

“Dave was an inspirational leader,” Straut told the television station.”

He was the kind of leader who put others ahead of himself – a great American.

On Feb. 12th Mr. Kriehn was driving home from work in the wee hours of the morning when he was hit from behind on Interstate 465. The force of the impact flipped over his car – he was ejected.

Mr. Kriehn – a father and grandfather – died at a nearby hospital.

Police identified the motorist who struck Mr. Kriehn as Elizabeth Vargas Hernandez – a Mexican national. They say she did not have a driver’s license. They also say she was drunk.

And the Marion County Sheriff’s Office tells me Immigration Customs Enforcement has placed a hold on Ms. Hernandez.

She is no stranger to law enforcement. In 2015, she was accused of driving without a license – but she was not arrested. That’s according to the reporting of IndyChannel.com.

And WTHR reports a state police investigation “uncovered evidence that the woman entered the country illegally and has never held a driver’s license.”

How many more American citizens must die before our elected leaders take action?

Liberals want to protect people like the woman who killed Mr. Kriehn. They want to provide sanctuary to those who live among us illegally – those who would do us harm.

The cold hard reality is that David Kriehn, a father and grandfather, would still be alive today if only somebody had bothered to secure our borders.

Build that wall, Mr. President. Build it for people like David Kriehn.
