President Trump on Wednesday once again ramped up his relentless Twitter attacks on the feds’ probe into Russian election meddlin🎶g and possible collusion with his campaign.
“The Rigged Russian Witch Hunt goes on and on as the ‘originators and founders’ of this scam continue to be fired and demoted for their corrupt and🎃 illegal activity. All credibility is gone from this terrible Hoax, and much more will be lost as it proceeds. No Collusion!” Trump on his favorite social media platform.
Trump was referring to fired FBI agent Peter Strzok and ex-Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, who was also canned, in an apparentജ effort to discredit special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe.
The president hasღ repeatedly slammed the probe, which has so far resulted in dozens of indictments and several guilty pleas by Trump associat♛es, and is still ongoing, with Mueller seeking a sitdown with the commander-in-chief.
Stꦦrzok was axed Friday for anti-Trump text messages he sent to his then-lover, former FBI lawyer Lisa Page.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions fired McCabe in March after the bureau’s inspector ge♔neral concluded that he had improperly leaked a story about the probe to the media.
The continuing tweetstorm against Mueller and intensifying calls for an end to the investigation came on the same day that closing arguments were expected in the money-laundering and bank fraud trial of Trump’s former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, in a federal courthouse in Virginia.
Manaf🐼ort’s attorneys rested without presenting a defense, and the case could go to the jury as early as Thursday morning.ꦦ He faces a possible sentence of life behind bars if convicted.
They also came a day after yet another co𝔍ntroversy about the president’s repeated denigratio🀅n of prominent African-Americans.
🏅On Tuesday, he after she charged thaꦏt Trump was caught on tape using the N-word.
White House spokeswoman Sarah Hu🎀ckabee Sanders on Tuesday defended the president — but pointedly said she could not “guarantee” that such a tape did not exist.
The Trump campaign tried to shut Newman up, filing charges with an arbitrator that she violated a nondisclosure statem💮ent she signed with the 2016 campaign.
But the outspꦐoken former White House aide, who was fired in December, has vowed that she will not be silenced, and Team Trump is worried that she has more recordings of private conve♕rsations with members of the administration, according to multiple reports.
