Before the M$M starts framing this as a tRump only problem, let's not forget some facts.

Mike Pence is just as dirty in RussiaGate as Kushner and Mike Flynn.

Nov. 11, 2016: Pence becomes chair of the Trump transition team, with Flynn as vice chair. Chris Christie later claims that a “significant reason” he was replaced as chair was because he opposed Flynn’s nomination as national security adviser.

Nov. 17, 2016: It was reported that Flynn would be Trump’s national security adviser.

Nov. 18, 2016: Rep. Elijah Cummings, the ranking Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, sends a letter to Pence with concerns about Flynn’s links to Russia and Turkey, and requests more information.

Dec. 1, 2016: Flynn and Jared Kushner meet Russia’s Ambassador Sergey Kislyak at Trump Tower. According to Kushner’s own testimony, he proposed a secret communication link with the Kremlin through the Russian Embassy in an effort to find a “secure line.”

Pence now has his inside man to help with his overthrow of the dumpling and family. Et tu Pence?

I hope Mueller is able to shine some light on his crimes and misdemeanors.

P.S. I do not think that we have the support of the majority of Republicans to bring impeachment to the table yet. Timing is everything.
