@potsmokingatheist9290 Soooo... Let's go bit by bit then....
"Where is it?"
I have the feeling that the best way to start is to give you the definition of Obstruction of Justice. Just to move things along.
Obstruction of Justice : obstruction of justice in the United States jurisdictions is a process crime consisting of obstructing prosecutors or other officials.
Obstruction of Justice : the crime or act of willfully interfering with the process of justice and law especially by influencing, threatening, harming or impeding a witness, potential witness, juror or judicial or legal officer or by Furnishing false information in or otherwise impeding an investigation or legal process.
1. Trump fired Comey. In May of 2017 Trump fired FBI director James Comey, who was overseeing the investigation into whether members of the Trump campaign colluded with Russia Nationals to interfere in the 2016 election. Shortly before he's fired the director, Trump reportedly asked him to drop the investigation into his National Security adviser Michael Flynn, which Trump denies. Following comey's firing, Trump even told a reporter that he had been thinking about "the Russia thing" when he made the decision to fire Comey.
2. Trump's role in creating misleading statements on the Trump Tower meeting. At Trump Tower in June of 2016 Donald Trump jr. Met with Natalie Veselnitskaya, an attorney from Russia, who supposedly had "dirt" on Hillary Clinton. The meeting quickly went downhill when it became clear that the attorney did not have any incriminating evidence on Clinton. A report published by The Washington Post stated that Trump "personally dictated" a public statement about the meeting that misrepresented the meetings content as being "primarily" an about adoption program.
3. Trump leveraged pardon power to influence Witnesses. Trump's lawyer, John Dowd, reportedly told lawyers representing Paul manafort and Michael Flynn that Trump might be willing to Pardon them if they were charged in the Russia investigation.
4. Trump pressure Jeff sessions over his recusal from the Russia investigation. Trump told White House counsel Don mcgahn to convince attorney general Jeff sessions to not recuse himself from the Russia investigation, which he oversaw as Attorney General. Sessions recused himself from the inquiry in March of 2017. A week after Comey was fired, Deputy attorney-general Rod Rosenstein appointed Mueller as special counsel to head the investigation.
5. Trump channels FBI director James Comey, " I need loyalty. I expect loyalty."
6. Trump asked Director of National Intelligence Dan coats and director of the National Security Agency Michael Rogers to publicly deny there was collusion between the Trump campaign and Russians.
7. Trump also tried to fire special counsel Robert Mueller.
8. Recently, Trump in the Democrats had a meeting about infrastructure. In which he stated to them, and directly after to a lawn full of reporters and cameras, (with pre-made signs at the ready) that he was not willing to do an infrastructure deal unless they dropped the investigation on him. Basically blackmailing or rather trying to Blackmail the Democrats into dropping an investigation.

@potsmokingatheist9290 " Trump is the best president we've had in your lifetime. "
Lets take the economy first, sense that is what he is always on about. Now I could do this with just about every POTUS in the last 50 years but sense he was the last one, lets take President Obama. This last year Trumps GDP was at 3%. Last year it was 2%. In 2 out of Presdent Obama's 8 years he also got 3% GDP. He also did so without having to dangerously deregulate many things that sould not of been deregulated. The same can not be said for Trump. 3 out of 8 of President Obama's years he beat Trump's first year of 2%
As I said before, Trump dangerously deregulated every sector. For example...
-Streamlining medical Appeals
- commercial and Industrial Solid Waste incineration standards and emissions
-training requirements for entry-level commercial motor vehicle operators
-VA claims and appeals modernization -affordable housing program amendments methane and waste prevention rule
-disclosure exemptions to certain nonprofits
-Public Transportation safety certification
-pre-shift mining examinations rule
-expanding State flexibility to the find essential health benefits and qualified health plans
-Electrical shock prevention rule
Global politics
He alienation often insults long-time friendly global leaders and yet seems to Buddy up to dictators and take their word over the word of our own intelligence agency.
He only has one card to play when it comes to negotiations and it rarely works. He has to try and be a strong man. Even if that means getting us into a trade War or lying about starving desperate men women and children and calling them gang members and terrorists and suggesting that they're invading
Brakes almost every deal we have with other countries, including global warming initiatives and nucular disarmament treaties without provocation and seaming only because they where what Obama did.
There is also an endless list of racism, bully tactics, disrespectful behavor involving our troops, tax cuts for the rich, goverment shutdowns that amounted to nothing, idiotic and childish shuffling of air craft carriers in order to not see a decieced political rivals name, defense of white supremacy, putting children in cages and then loosing them in the system, disapearing tax returns ... I could go on.
In the end, I have given you facts, provable hard data and you have given me speculation, personal attacks and assumptions you need to tell yourself in order to continue believing your already decided conclusion.

@potsmokingatheist9290 Ya know what's funny... You keep making shit up. You keep lying. You keep making wild accusations and when asked for any kind of evidence twards it, you don't give it. You make excuses, try to divert by making new or similar accusations against everyone, including me.... The funniest part though... Is when you claim others are lying or that I am somehow willfully blind or brainwashed in some way, when your the one who has been....
- claiming you " take information from all sides so we can make Intelligent Decisions ", but I have given you hard fact, information that you can easily verify, and you choose to ignore it.
-instead everytime your proven wrong or backed into a corner, you just start claiming how "brain washed" I am.
-or you start making assumptions about me and what I do in my day to day. Even though you have never met me in your life. In tern, these can ONLY be lies and assumptions.
-you have not once considered that, maybe if you can't prove what your saying that, maybe you should not say it.
You ignore or simply dismiss factual information that goes against your belief. You believe
- then when asked for proof of your own claims, you provide nothing. Not one time have you provided 1 shread of evidence about anything you have said.

@potsmokingatheist9290 First a definition.... What is brainwashing?
The term brainwashing was first coined in the 1950s during the Korean War. It was used to explain how to italic Terry Unruh jeans were able to completely indoctrinate American soldiers to a process of torture and propaganda.
Brainwashing is the theory that a person's core beliefs, ideas, affiliations and values can be replaced, so much so that they have no autonomy over themselves and can't think critically or independently.
You, yourself have presented at least 3 out of the 5 markers for brainwashing. I suspect more but am not willing to say so because there is nkt enough evidence to do so and I choose not to speculate or assume like you do.
Us V Them
Which can be demonstrated by your insistence that Fox is somehow more factual and relivent then CNN and MSNBC ( which is something you assumed that I watch ).
The following is information that you will probably ignore but what the hell. Did you know that Gallup has polled the Most and least trusted news sources once every 3 months for the past 6 years? Here are the results ( which again, you can easily verify ).
- Americans believe that 62% of the news they consume on TV, and newspapers and on the radio is biased.
- they believe that 44% of news reporting and 66% of news on social media is inaccurate
- 80% of them are upset about it
- perception of bias in an accuracy differ based on the respondents political Persuasions, particularly with regard to Fox News, Breitbart, CNN and MSNBC
- the only two media organizations Republican surveyed said weren't biased were Fox News and the Wall Street Journal
- Democrats said they believe that just 44% of news on TV, and newspapers and on the radio is biased, while Republicans said they believed 77% of it is biased
- presented with a host of major news outlets, respondents ranked PBS news and the Associated Press as the least biased Outlets, while Fox News and Breitbart News tied for being perceived as most biased.
Calculating all the different respondents this is what they came up with from most to least bias.
1. Fox news and Breitbart News
87% bias by democrats and 3% bias Republicans for Fox. 73% bias by democrats and 19% by Republicans for Breitbart News
2. MSNBC
1% bias by democrats and 85% bias by Republicans
3. Huffington Post
61% bias rating from Republicans and 9% bias rating from Democrats
4. CNN
87% bias rating from Republicans and 29% bias rating from Democrats
5. Mother Jones
29% bias rating from Republicans and 16% bias rating from Democrats
6. Vox
5% bias rating from Democrats and 16% bias rating from Republicans
7. The New York Times
44% bias rating from democrats' 74% bias rating from Republicans
8. NBC News
42% bias rating from Democrats and 64% bias rating from Republicans
9. Washington Post
40% bias rating from Democrats and 65% bias rating from Republicans
10. ABC News
56% bias rating from Democrats and 60% bias rating from Republicans
It goes on but you get the picture. You will notice I did not spare CNN or MSNBC. Country wide concencus shows your Them V Me bias is incorrect.
