Rachel Maddow showed how the President is trying to kill the Russia investigation by tampering with the six witnesses that can back up former FBI Director James Comey’s testimony.

Maddow said, “There are six people on the list that we know of who were in on the evidence, who have evidence of the president’s behavior in that matter. Of those six, four of them have now been ousted, or sidelined at the FBI, and smeared by the White House and the Republicans. Four of the six. When Comey came up with the evidence that the president tried to obstruct justice in the Russia matter, they tried to destroy Comey. Comey thought ahead and had back up. Now, they are destroying his back up.”

The obstruction of justice by Trump and his White House didn’t stop with the firing of James Comey, which is why no matter how the Russia investigation turns out, more investigations are likely to follow. The corruption in this administration isn’t limited to the 2016 election and Russia. The corruption and potentially criminal activities are ongoing.
A Democratic takeover of any part of Congress in the midterm would be bad for the Trump agenda, but it would be even worse for the future of Trump. None of the activities of this president have stopped, as the only way to stop Donald Trump and his operation will be to vote them out or remove them from office.
