Good story.
On an earlier thread involving legal fees there was some indication that Manafort was in the same relatively impecunious boat as some of the other âplayersâ. Considering how long heâd been Singing in Sibilant Cyrillic for his Supper, and the amounts involved, even assuming that a lot of it was pass-through in a Bagman role, I get the impression that heâs pretty well fixed. Of course, that doesnât mean he will enjoy spending the money. It does mean that heâs most vulnerable taxwise, but notice nobodyâs talking much about whether the tax angle is front-burner, beyond the Muellers having plenty of expertise in that area.
Other than having the Cubâs break theirWorld Series slump, I have NEVER hoped for something as much as the downfall and imprisonment of the Drumpf Crime Family.
heâd be well advised to not fly on small aircraftâŚ
Manafort wonât rat on anyone. The reason Trump pardoned Arpaio so quickly, and outside of proper protocol was to signal his friends that they would be safe to lie, and safe to be convicted for it. Trump would just pardon them.
This doesnât erase their legal bills, but keeps them out of prison and Trump in the White House.
âTo obtain an order from the FISA court, the government must establish probable cause that an individual is the âagent of a foreign powerââŚâ
But, of course, âbrissyâ and the rest of the trolls have assured usâŚ
âThereâs absolutely nothing to this Russian hysteria cooked up by delusional Democrats.â
Because, you know, eleven federal judges on FISA â all appointed by John Roberts â are total dupes.
(Or something.)
Huh? How could this possibly spell trouble at all? Trump has now been proven 100% correct that Obama wiretapped his campaign for political advantage!!!11!!1111one!!!1111eleventy1!!!
Those people excel at one thing and one thing onlyâgrasping at the wispiest of straws.
Not My President does not have the intellectual capacity to separate his responsibilities to this nation from the view of everyone around him being indicted for illegal activities conducted specifically with the aim of putting him where he is. He will go Scorched Earth on his way out, starting with N. Korea. He is an illegitimate failure. He knows this, and he is determined to leave as big a permanent scar on this world as he can. If the world fucks with him, he will fuck the world. Consequences mean nothing.
Well, they just didnât get the âRussians are our friendsâ memo the Commander-In-Cheat sent out.
Trump was new on the job so accepted Ben Carsonâs offer at the Cabinet Meeting to mail them out.
Theyâre under the front seat of Benâs car. Except for the French Fry stains, theyâre still usable.
Well, the wispiest of straws still has much more girth than their pitiful little tallywhackers. Easier to grab on to.
Not just one thing:
The Billing Depât is the envy of Goldman Sachs.
Thatâs why Mueller teamed up with New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, Presidents canât pardon state crimes.
To all the Susan Sarandons, Bernie Bros. and Sisses, Jill Steinians, Gary Johnsonians, people who didnât vote, and assorted deplorables:
#Still think both parties are the same?
Manafort better be careful he doesnât fall down an elevator shaft onto some bullets.
On his back
I cannot begin to state properly how much I want to see Trump go down in obloquy and disgrace orders of magnitude greater than the dishonor heâs already brought to the Office of the Presidency. He really deserves to spend the rest of his life in solitary, in a max security federal prison. Donât forget this, from just last February:
The intelligence community is preparing to âgo nuclearâ in the wake of revelations about the Trump campaignâs contact with Russia, a former spy has warned.
Security consultant and ex-National Security Agency (NSA) employee, John Schindler said he had received an email from a senior intelligence agent discussing the President.
It opened with the words: âHe will die in jailâ, he said.
You know, a âYes!â ending like this
Do you think the joint chiefs would carry out an order to nuke NK or even attack with conventional weapons without any kind of provocation on Kim Ding Dongâs part?
Actually, no. I think weâd see a Seven Days In May â and this time, weâd be rooting for the generals
