See, my thought is always this: this guy (Patten) has nothing to do with Spankee per se. I suspect Mueller has found a whole bunch of things like this. Technically, this is just collateral damage. Comey’s move a week before the election was tied directly to the candidate Clinton; more accusations against Manafort or other small fry that get caught in Mueller’s net are not direct accusations against the candidate, or even the campaign.
Why does everyone seem to think that Mueller’s team needs to or will go dark for two months? Am I missing something here??
They’re not going dark. Trump’s campaign manager goes on a very public second trial starting at the end of September. If that doesn’t run afoul of any red lines, no indictment of anyone not named Trump will run afoul of it. So Stone and others can get indicted.
Khyber900 - Fuck if I know where you pull all this shit from, but man, do I love reading your posts. To quote Lt. Colonel Kilgore, “Outstanding, Red Team. Get you a case of beer for that one!”
Begemot’s website is still active, and their contact page sends e-mails to a Patten account. I dropped them a line and asked if they’d help overthrow Alabama. Not that anyone would want to rule it afterward, but razing it to the ground would be fun.
The mantra originated – guess where --, the MSM picked it up, and even here, we repeat it. The guidelines, I hear, only apply if there are candidates on the ballot who are under investigation, not current officeholders who don’t have to face a mob of angry voters for two more years. If that is indeed the case, Muller can forge ahead with a clear conscience, following the guideline, reserving any running Republican’s indictments until November 7, 2018.
My ex-cop friend who was in the state AG investigations unit said that when you are this far into a case, there is no stopping to smell the flowers,
I agree. I think s-trumpets are repeating this ad nauseum so that they can cry foul when Mueller’s team keeps bringing the pressure straight through Nov.
So, restating the obvious: we can expect that Mueller will plow ahead methodically and resolutely as the gnashing of teeth, caterwauling and tearing of hair on the part of Ghouliani and others escalate. Spankee may or may not get rid of the Elf prior to Election Day, but it sort of doesn’t matter because Mueller’s passed on sufficient stuff to the state level that it cannot all be swept under the rug…thereby ensuring that the dauntless pursuit of Crime Family Trump continues.
