As the expression goes, “Where there is smoke, there is fire.” But with everything that has transpired, there is way more than smoke. We can see the smoldering embers of the Trump Administration as it begins to go up in flames!

We’ve got Russia hacking e-mails, putting out propaganda, and trying to hack voting machines. We’ve got Trump with alleged business ties to Russia but never releasing his taxes so we can’t be sure. We’ve got numerous campaign and administration staffers having spoken with Russians but lying about it. We’ve got numerous campaign campaign and administration staffers taking payments from Russia and other foreign countries. We’ve got a President that openly admires Vladimir Putin and refuses to ever say anything bad or admit he is a bad guy.

And there have now been three people fired that we’re investigating the Trump Administration, with the latest being FBI Director James Comey. He was fired right after testifying that the FBI is investigating the Trump Administration AND he had just asked for more money to perform these investigations.

The Trump Administration has lied about the cause of each firing, and it now appears, may have also lied that Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein recommended Comey’s dismissal. Which would mean that only Donald Trump and Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who supposedly recused himself from the investigations, were the only ones that wanted Rosenstein fired.

This is positively frightening obstruction of justice. We need an independent investigation by a special prosecutor and we need it now!
