Oh shut the hell up, you dirty Russian vermin…there are real women who suffer from sexism and you don’t qualify you disgusting spy. And to her two-bit lawyers - f*** you too for playing the sexism card. I know lawyers are supposed to protect their clients but this is absolute B.S.
This woman should be executed for espionage after she is convicted as a fearsome lesson to any other Russian pigs who dare try and screw with our Democracy.
I for one will never forget Russia is the prime criminal nation in the world and their entire economy and government should be literally burned to the ground for their evil. The Dems had better get this message too. No quarter for Russia.
Put a sock in it, sweetie, and go get me a beer.
Desperate people do (and allege) desperate things.
“Driscoll says she was not acting at the best of any Russian…”
Typo: behest.
Fermented beverages would appear to be of little interest to her.
She almost certainly can help you get some AK-47s.
“My client is a 2 at best (a 3 with beer goggles), and therefore innocent of all these charges. Judge Ellis would agree, and we’re requesting him.”
She might well have been joking in that exchange. But she was living with a guy she got to do her homework while he introduced her to conservative players, all funded by $300K in oligarch money.
And we probably don’t want to see the rest of the material.
With any luck, and a good prosecution, Ms. Butina may well be the linchpin to bringing down the NRA.
And I have to wonder, how does a recently minted grad student afford an attorney from McGlinchey Stafford, described by the National Law Journal as one of the 350 largest law firms in the U.S., serving a “variety of clients, from Fortune 500 companies to entrepreneurs to government entities?”
Does she have a sugar daddy footing the bill?
True, and the lawyers who work for them say all kinds of crap.

Hey, look over here!!
I notice he had nothing to say about the allegations that she’s a Russian agent. Kinda the main point here.
Ahhh, that’s cute that y’all would think we’d do anything other than laugh at that.
“The impact of this inflammatory allegation, which painted Ms. Butina as some type of Kremlin-trained seductress, or spy-novel honeypot character, trading sex for access and power, cannot be overstated,” Driscoll added overstated.
FIFY
I have a feeling that this is just an attempt to get the prosecution to reveal some of their evidence before charges are officially filed. Nice try.
Best Plan Ever: Give her immunity if she can prove that the NRA was a conduit for Russian mega-money that got doled out to a variety of named ® congresspeople. Then send her to Guantanamo as a janitor.
Is it just me or is Driscoll a terrible attorney?
Right, a 20-something hangs out with fat ugly 50-somethings with either money or influence or both because that’s just the kind of men she likes.
This obviously means the Mueller investigation must be brought to a swift conclusion.
