Are you all thinking what Iā€™m thinking? This beauty and Trump maybe shared some other things together? I bet she is sitting on a boatload of Donald sleezeā€¦

ā€œThe suit against Prevezon never went to trial. On March 11, Donald Trump fired Bharara, and on March 21, Nikolai Gorokhov, the Magnitsky familyā€™s attorney and a key witness for the prosecution, fell from the fourth floor of an apartment buildingā€¦ā€

Chief Wiggum: ā€œOK, folks, showā€™s over. Nothing to see here, showā€™sā€¦Oh my G-d! A horrible plane crash! Hey everybody, get a load of this flaming wreckage! Come on, crowd around, crowd around, donā€™t be shy, crowd around.ā€

Why do the Russians involved always look exponentially smarter than the Trump affiliates?

To be fair, your average meatball sub looks smarter than the Trump affiliates.

Nah. Iā€™m not thinking that, Iā€™m never thinking that, and Iā€™m surprised so many here think so ill of the man and yet assume heā€™s this tremendous horn dog. To me you have to be a little credulous to think that. I keep saying it: Heā€™s 71, pushing 300 pounds, he never exercises, his diet is a cardiologistā€™s nightmareā€”need I go on? He wants people to think heā€™s the picture of mature virility almost as much as he wants them to think heā€™s rich. But I say even with chemical helpā€”not a good idea for the hypertensively challengedā€”it ainā€™t happening in any impressive way if itā€™s happening at all.

CBS Evening News just fileted the Trump children. Especially Eric.

Just pointed out all their statements that make a lie of Trumpā€™s claims he would keep business separate from Presidenting.

Even included Ericā€™s statement that his fatherā€™s opponents werenā€™t ā€œeven human.ā€ Also how Eric told Forbes he was in constant contact with his father about ā€œprofitability reports and stuff (such a good education, eh?)ā€ On to Iwankaā€™s interviews about not knowing what complicit was.

Ending line: "This White House is being run like a ā€˜family business.ā€™ "

Bhararaā€™s later firing must be taken as strictly a coincidence.

Weā€™re gradually being ensnared as minor players in the Russian kleptocracy. Iā€™m not sure Trump even rises to the level of a capo.

PS: Hopefully TPM is running a large (1 acre?) whiteboard with appropriate arrows and connectors between all of these little details. Itā€™s a dizzying array but surely enough facts are emerging from the murk to begin construction of a complete synthesis?

The Fright-Wing trolls on FB are trying to make her out to be a DNC connected lobbyist, due to some shitty ā€œreportingā€ by Circa, the Sinclair media shitshow that uses a ā€œthey also lobbied against the same Russia sanctions lawā€ version of a ā€œconnectionā€.

The genius doesnā€™t fall far from the fattening trough. Donny Jrā€™s cover story essentially admits the trioā€™s intent to collude with a foreign power for political influence. I doubt there was any talk about the adoption program. That woman is a big-league, heavy hitter. She would not be wasting HER time with that nonsense. Iā€™m sure it was all business. I never watched a minute of The Apprentice but if this ordeal was a fictional series like The West Wing, Iā€™d be hooked.
Unfortunately it is real.

From the article: ā€œMagnitsky became a cause celebā€¦ā€

Semi-Literate Trumpanzees donā€™t even know that the phrase is ā€œcause celebre.ā€
