Guess WilmerHale aren’t wartime consiglieres. When going to the mattresses, call in the real criminal lawyers.

Hey, I’ve been tough on the headline writer before, but for once he/she is perspicuous.

If there’s two words that describe what must have happened to Manafort’s lawyers, it’s
SHOOK-UP.

And the prosecutors are just getting WARMED UP.

Not only didn’t I get much done, but my worry about what may be about to happen to our country has escalated. Please, Robert Mueller, work your magic before we’re in a war!

I keep hearing that this investigation is going to take a long time, even years.

Hmmm.

Manafort also has Burnham, Quick, & Hyde on retainer.

This jumped out at me. Two months ago Manafort’s son in law hands over stuff. Hmmm. Makes me wonder what else Mueller & his crew have.

“Yohai met with Justice Department investigators more than two months ago, according to
a CNN report published late Thursday, and gave them information and
documents.”.

Yeah. It’s called Thursday.

He was right, I am tired of the winning. I can’t even keep track of all of the winning. Would y’all please reduce the winning to approximately three hours of winning per workday so I can still function in the office?

His first choice, Howard Fine Howard, was unavailable due to a conflict of interest; they’re representing the pResident.
