House intel committee member promises People will be indicted, people are going to jail.'

Appearing on MSNBC with Alex Witt, a lawmaker who has been deeply involved in the House Intelligence Committee’s investigation into Russian influence with White House officials bluntly “went on the record” and declared, “People are going to jail.”

Speaking with the MSNBC host, Rep. Denny Heck (D-WA) got right to the point when it came to what he heard after testimony from GPS founder Glenn Simpson about Trump and the Russians despite Simpson reportedly refusing to answer key questions from lawmakers during his seven-hour, closed-door appearance.

“Alex, I left that meeting thinking I had just spent the most unbelievable — I don’t know how many hours we were in there together — it was many that I have thus far in this year,” Heck began with a smile.

“Look, I’m going to take you back to something I said, I think on your program in the spring, that was a little controversial at the time, but I’m going to reiterate it today: people are going to go to jail”

and not just some fall guy or for a token sentence. Anyone thinking these clowns are too rich to jail must remember that they got their money through fraud, theft, collusion and downright lawlessness. If the whole crew doesn't spend some time behind bars, then get rid of the police/FBI/CIA, shut down the courtrooms and open the doors to the prisons. All those lawyers will no longer be needed as the people will now be able to commit any crimes they wish. We will no longer be a country of laws and justice. We have been shown the way to wealth. We've Just Been Made Great Again!


People are going to jail? I hope I'm still around to see it, but I'm not holding any hopes that it will happen.

I figure there will me minimal sentences and time served, if any. I just hope the trumps and kushner all go down in disgrace and financial ruin. I'm afraid that Ivanka will skate even though she is neck deep in the corruption.
