not that I can keep up with any of this, but is the net closing or is Trump buffering himself with this move? Seems odd if he's under such scrutiny the CIA chief would take that role in his administration?

Both.

Mueller has already charged and flipped a number of associates. He could probably charge Trump with obstruction of justice but will want to charge him on collusion.

The head of the CIA and the new Secretary of State don't like Mueller.

I wouldn't be surprised if Trump fires Mueller sometime soon. The GOP will do nothing and put party first like they did last night.
 
So soon after condemning Russia...

No collusion though.

The Trump Whitehouse was trying to put out that the decision was made last week in which case Tillerson thought he could be free to tell the truth about Russia? However Tillerson's camp are now saying he found out by twitter the same as everyone else.

The timing is highly suspicious.

He’s not even trying to hide it any more.

If this was the story line of some American series then it would be canned as unbelievable.
 
EU are supporting us over Russia.
In view of the 'special relationship' the Don's a bit slow on the uptake though.
Come on Trumpy.

EU will support us with words but there is no appetite for extending the scope of sanctions against Russia and Trump’s idea of condemning Russia will be ‘its a really, really bad thing but these guys were traitors to their country so it’s deplorable but you can understand it’.

May is in a bind here as she has to do something otherwise we look weak but looking to the US or EU for a coordinated response looks doubtful. The EU have always been iffy at the amount of Russian money that is laundered through London so their first response will likely be put your own house in order first and Trump really doesn’t give a shit.

Best May can do is target the Russian money (less any Tory party donations obviously).

Think you are misappropriating the word ‘laundered’ there.

The EU support won't amount to much. Russia have them by the balls with gas supplies.
No chance of anything substantive from Trump. I expect a load of hot air and a statement that he has done more against Russia than any other president ever. Meanwhile he'll do absolutely nothing except sack anyone that actually looks like they will.
