President Donald Trump began what could be the most significant day so far in Robert Mueller's Russia probe pre-emptively lashing out at the special counsel's office in a tweetstorm.
Releasing a week's worth of pent-up bile following an extended state funeral that had forced him to moderate his public statements, the president let it all hang out, framing a series of expected court documents as the product of corruption and political bias.
Prosecutors in New York and Washington have until 5:00 p.m. Friday to file sentencing memos explaining former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen's cooperation in their respective investigations.
The Mueller team is also expected, but not required, to describe in writing why they want to cancel a cooperation agreement with Paul Manafort – who they have said is guilty of 'crimes and lies' that should invalidate the plea deal they struck with the former Trump campaign chairman.
'Robert Mueller and Leakin’ Lyin’ James Comey are Best Friends, just one of many Mueller Conflicts of Interest. And bye [sic] the way, wasn’t the woman in charge of prosecuting Jerome Corsi (who I do not know) in charge of “legal” at the corrupt Clinton Foundation? A total Witch Hunt,' he began at 6:18 a.m.
Four more tweets in 57 minutes, 320 characters at a time, provided the world with A a Trumpian stream-of-consciousness recap of anti-Mueller themes.
'He must sense something truly awful coming,' an aide to a Republican senator told DailyMail.com minutes later.
The president's tweets were neither a declaration of war nor a
'Will Robert Mueller’s big time conflicts of interest be listed at the top of his Republicans only Report. Will Andrew Weissman’s [sic] horrible and vicious prosecutorial past be listed in the Report,' Trump continued, frantically skipping questions marks and misspelling the name of Mueller's chief legal pitbull.
'He wrongly destroyed people’s lives, took down great companies, only to be overturned, 9-0, in the United States Supreme Court. Doing same thing to people now. Will all of the substantial & many contributions made by the 17 Angry Democrats to the Campaign of Crooked Hillary be listed in top of Report. Will the people that worked for the Clinton Foundation be listed at the top of the Report? Will the scathing document written about Lyin’ James Comey, by the man in charge of the case, Rod Rosenstein (who also signed the FISA Warrant), be a big part of the Report?'
'Isn’t Rod therefore totally conflicted? Will all of the lying and leaking by the people doing the Report, & also Bruce Ohr (and his lovely wife Molly), Comey, Brennan, Clapper, & all of the many fired people of the FBI, be listed in the Report? Will the corruption within the DNC & Clinton Campaign be exposed?..And so much more!'
James Comey was the director of the FBI until President Donald Trump dismissed him on May 9, 2017.
Weeks later, Comey arranged for a memo on a private meeting with the President to be leaked to the press, in which Trump asked him to curtail the FBI investigation into former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn.
Comey's dismissal and the contents of his memo have been interpreted by some as evidence of an obstruction of justice by Trump and have become part of Mueller's probe Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.
After a short gap of ten minutes, Trump continued his rant, writing: 'Will Robert Mueller’s big time conflicts of interest be listed at the top of his Republicans only Report. (sic)

After another pause to collect his thoughts the President continued: '....overturned, 9-0, in the United States Supreme Court. Doing same thing to people now.

This morning's tweets which appear to not yet be over - follow on from an explosion last night.
In a series of back-to-back tweets, the president quoted conspiracy theorist Jerome Corsi before lashing out at the 'fake news media'.
'Jerome Corsi: "This is not justice, this is not America. This is a political prosecution. The Special Prosecutor (Counsel), to get this plea deal, demanded I lie and violate the law. They’re the criminals." He is not alone. 17 Angry Dems. People forced to lie. Sad!' Trump tweeted at Fox News host Trish Regan.
He then followed that tweet up with a quote from Regan, who interviewed Corsi on Trish Regan Primetime.
In back-to-back tweets Thursday night, the president quoted conspiracy theorist Jerome Corsi and a Fox News host who gave him a softball interview
The president lashed out at the 'fake news' media in allcaps before dinnertime
'Trish_Regan: "Did the FBI follow protocol to obtain the FISA warrant? I don’t think so. The Dossier was opposition research funded by opponents. Don’t use Government resources to take down political foes. Weaponizing Government for gain." Is this really America? Witch Hunt!' Trump tweeted.
That tweet was then followed by a swipe at the media in all caps: 'FAKE NEWS - THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!'
During Regan's segment, Corsi told the host that his only crime was that he 'supported Donald Trump.'
'I did my best to help get Donald Trump elected. And now, I’m a criminal for having done that. It’s a political prosecution and I filed a complaint with the DOJ against Mueller,' Corsi said.
On Tuesday, a filing by Mueller provided the first details of Michael Flynn’s assistance in the probe into Russian meddling in the 2016 election and possible contacts with the Trump campaign.
Flynn participated in 19 interviews with prosecutors and cooperated extensively in a separate and undisclosed criminal probe, according to the filing.
But the document’s lengthy redactions also underscore how much Mueller has yet to reveal.

Mueller believes Flynn shouldn't get prison time because of the 'substantial assistance' he has given in the Russia probe.
It was filed two weeks ahead of Flynn’s sentencing and just over a year after he became one of five Trump associates to plead guilty in the Russia probe — in his case admitting to lying to the FBI about conversations with the Russian ambassador to the US before Trump took office.
Though prosecutors withheld specific details of Flynn’s cooperation because of ongoing investigations, their filing nonetheless illustrates the breadth of information Mueller has obtained from people close to Trump as the president increasingly vents his anger at the probe — and those who cooperate with it.
This week, Trump accused his former lawyer, Cohen, of making up 'stories' to get a reduced prison sentence after pleading guilty to lying to Congress and also praised longtime confidante Roger Stone for saying he wouldn’t testify against Trump.
The next highly anticipated filing is expected on Friday from Mueller’s office, detailing the lies that prosecutors say Manafort told them after his guilty plea.
In Tuesday’s filing, prosecutors emphasized that the conduct Flynn lied about cuts to the core of the investigation into any coordination between the Trump campaign and the Kremlin.
Flynn’s false statements stemmed from a January 24, 2017, interview with the FBI about his interactions with Sergey Kislyak, Russia’s then-ambassador to the US, as the Obama administration was levying sanctions on the Kremlin in response to election interference.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
