I kinda feel like NVIXM is warm up for Epstein shit that will come out via discovery when they relook at how that whole thing was handled. At the end of the day that was one of those things they wanted to keep hidden and would go to such means as removing a president. The russian collusion theme was just a smokescreen to cover for far greater crimes. This insurance policy has managed to dominate over half of the presidents first term and has prevented much attention being placed upon the more serious crimes elsewhere. They always knew it was bullshit so maybe all they have been doing is trying to buy time until they can get another "player" back into the figurehead slot. I do not believe though that they were expecting this same stall time would be used against them at the same time. The Russian Collusion story has also provided a smokescreen to many other investigations as reflected in the indictment count.
