First Charges Filed in Mueller Investigation

[DistrictDeacon]

they did their best to shop it around to various news outlets

Who did?

 

[sailordeac]

Well, that doesn't really make sense. If he agreed with you, he wouldn't still be investigating this many months later.

do you understand the meaning of the words: "based on the present evidence"?

Mueller can investigate what he wants, other than catching occasional misstatements and calling them perjuries, or raking people over the coals for not registering as foreign lobbyists, he could be trying to look into the Donald's and some of his advisers' earlier financial deals, the collusion theory looks dead, actually it always was

 

[sailordeac]

Who did?

Steele, who was in the pay of Hillary and the dems

 

[sailordeac]

Sailor clearly doesn't know the definition of "hacked" or of "best"

of course I do

unfortunately you do not understand the words: "rig America's elections", which is what Obama was talking about

you wanted to be a wise ass and ended up a dumb ass, and that for you is a successful day

I wish you further successes, and you would do best to stick with lol

 

[DistrictDeacon]

Steele, who was in the pay of Hillary and the dems

Did they direct him to do it? Did they know he was meeting with the media?

 

[DistrictDeacon]

Obama was responding to a Trump claim that actual votes at polling places were going to be rigged by Democrats. Not saying anything about outside influences.

 

[sailordeac]

Did they direct him to do it? Did they know he was meeting with the media?

why would they have wanted him not to do it?

Steele was paid by them to compile the smear dossier on Trump, what would be the point of compiling the smear dossier and keeping it secret?

 

[DistrictDeacon]

why would they have wanted him not to do it?

Careful. You might hurt yourself trying that hard to dodge the question.

 

[ImTheCaptain]

it's not hillary's fault trump likes to get peed on

 

[sailordeac]

Careful. You might hurt yourself trying that hard to dodge the question.

no one is dodging any question, you are not making any sense, if it helps, not making any sense often happens to people trying to defend the Clintons

it repeat, it makes no sense to pay millions to compile a smear dossier on your opponent in the middle of a campaign and then keep it secret

Ah - so more #feelings from the professor. Sounds about right.

Because a pardon dangle is secret and seeks to discourage cooperation with an ongoing investigation without public scrutiny or consequences, it should be analyzed differently than a pardon when it comes to an obstruction case. Because of the way a pardon dangle operates, it should acquire none of the deference that might be afforded an actual pardon, and if the dangle is found to be orchestrated with a corrupt motive, it should qualify as a potential act of obstruction of justice.

Dowd now vociferously denies that there was any dangle at all, but if one occurred it will be fairly easy to prove. Dowd also has every reason to try to deny it. Not only does it look bad in the court of public opinion. It is bad in the court of law. The fact that Dowd made the offer—as Trump’s personal lawyer—means presumptively this was also no official act. As Marty Lederman has noted, Dowd himself may be prosecutable for involvement in what amounts to criminal activity here. At bottom, a key to understanding this issue is not to be distracted by debates about the scope or absolute nature of the pardon power. The dangling pardon is a different creature, necessitating a very different analytic inquiry.

I can't wait to see Mueller depose Trump about the Stormy Daniels' dick pix.

"Mr. President, that your penis?"

"Hey, it was cold and I had just banged her three times."

"But Mr. President, Ms. Daniels said you were only there for five minutes. Remember you are under oath...and undersized."

 

[JManslow]

raking people over the coals for not registering as foreign lobbyists,

Yeah how dare he punish double agents!

[sailordeac]
