A friend from college works for the ACLU. Based on his FB posts, the ACLU is now about sticking it to the right, not fighting for what is right.

Did people seriously think the ACLU would do anything....they're a joke and have been for a while.

They've always been about supporting liberalism as far as I can recall.

That's been the ACLU's mission for decades. Now they don't have to even pretend anymore to be interested in justice..

Well, well, well! Turns out those Mueller charges against Russians and Russian companies might see the inside of a US courtroom after all. This is very interesting.

According to Politico

Quote:

A Russian company criminally charged with interfering in the 2016 U.S. presidential election formally notified a federal judge Wednesday that it has retained U.S. attorneys a move that could be a bid to gain access to evidence that special counsel Robert Mueller's office gathered in preparing the case.

Two Washington-area attorneys Eric Dubelier and Kate Seikaly of law firm Reed Smith filed official appearances on behalf of Concord Management and Consulting.

Quote:

Concord is nominally in the restaurant business and is owned by Yevgeniy Prigozhin, an associate of President Vladimir Putin often referred to as "Putin's chef." If the gambit was successful, Prigozhin could effectively obtain a trial without putting himself personally at risk.

Prosecutors could attempt to head off such a strategy by dismissing Concord and, perhaps, the other corporate defendants, from the case.
Quote:

When the criminal case was filed, many legal experts predicted it would lie dormant indefinitely and never go to trial because none of the defendants were likely to set foot in the U.S. or in a country from which they could be readily extradited. However, no individual is required to appear on behalf of a corporate defendant, other than a lawyer for the company.

Quote:

However, by appearing in court through counsel, Concord could force prosecutors to turn over discovery about how the case was assembled as well as evidence that might undermine the prosecution's theories. In addition, Concord's move creates the possibility of a trial that could expose sensitive intelligence information without the prospect of ultimately sending anyone to prison.
Your move, Bob. Dismiss them and fold? Or prepare to show your cards??

Beginning to surmise the Swamp is "with us" until the 12th of never. The rest of us..."commoners / non-elitist" are/will be victims forever and justice is just another hollow word. Not enough "patriots" or white knights to prevail.
Alexander, Caesar, Charlemagne, and myself founded empires; but upon what foundation did we rest the creations of our genius? Upon force! But Jesus Christ founded His upon love; and at this hour millions of men would die for Him. - Napoleon Bonaparte

Mueller is interviewing everyone, probably in an attempt to keep them from speaking to anyone else.

Did you see that POS Menendez badger him about the Mueller interview? Pompeo declined to discuss the specifics of what was discussed. Menendez got all snarky and said something like, "Well, I could just call Director Mueller...er...Special Counsel Mueller and ask if you or anyone else have been ordered not to talk about it!"

Pompeo let that one pass. If it were me, I would have gone Zoolander.



No one (or very few) who has been interviewed by Mueller nor testified before either of his grand juries have come out publicly. There's a reason for that. The threat is implicit if not explicit.

Will be interesting to see how Comey dances around that issue in his upcoming book tour. (BTW: Mueller should be tearing his hair out over Comey doing this right now. The likelihood Comey messes up in such a way to compromise his investigation is very high. No prosecutor would want his/her/ premier witness making public statements directly about the subject of the investigation...ever.)

No details provided concerning the meeting...supposedly to discuss routine Justice Department business.

Turns out Dana Boente was present at the Trump - Rosenstein meeting, so Trump had a 'white hat' witness. Of course if Trump fired Rosenstein, he would likely pick Boente as the acting replacement (maybe even permanent replacement).

I can finally contribute to this thread instead of just lurking (thanks to Hawg, Roscoe, & others).

Comey's book excerpts have started. The only thing of note in the yahoo article is this:

Quote:

The 6-foot-8 Comey describes Trump as shorter than he expected with a "too long" tie and "bright white half-moons" under his eyes that he suggests came from tanning goggles. He also says he made a conscious effort to check the president's hand size, saying it was "smaller than mine, but did not seem unusually so."
Comey's prepping for a spin on the red carpet interviewing celebs on what they are wearing on E network? Has that snarky fashion critic thing going for him.

It wouldn't be the first time a Mueller investigation was totally hosed. The clown royally screwed up the Anthrax investigation.

When you consider how he had four innocent people thrown in prison (two of which died in prison) during the Whitey Bulger debacle, it makes you wonder about all the Belt Way Boys that said Mueller's reputation was "Impeccable".

This guy is as incompetent as Obama...and just as corrupt when you consider his (and Weissmann's) history of hiding exculpatory evidence for the defense.

I don't ask for much but please oh please let Comey get perp walked into a squad car and for good measure, hit his dome as he's getting put into the vehicle.

The organization is almost as evil as Planned Parenthood.
