Mueller's investigation
Re: Mueller's investigation
I wonder what the reply from Mueller will be, to have documents that are the basis for his investigation freely available. How can he prosecute when any potential jurors already know all details from the media?

Surely you jest. Most Americans don't have any idea who Carter Page is, nor will they give a rat's ass. I see this more as another vindictive move to end the career of Bruce Ohr.

Re: Mueller's investigation
It means that to the small extent that the intelligence community has not completely leaked anti-Trump crap, they now will. And they will cover their asses on every single issue they face by papering everything to the White House so that when bad shit happens, they can leak the warnings they sent to the White House, which of course the White House will have ignored.
Trump wants to keep bragging about his success with North Korea. So the intelligence community leaks the satellite photos of North Korea upgrading new nuclear facilities, etc. IMHO, the spooks know where ALL the bodies are buried.

In this Sept 13 speech, Nunes said the declassification Trumo ordered tonight was necessary so Republicans can campaign on the issue of Democrats 'corrupting" the DoJ and FBI.

New York Times
Trump’s Growing Legal Team Has a Problem: It’s Operating Partly in the Dark
WASHINGTON — Nearly a dozen lawyers now assist President Trump in contending with two federal investigations, one in Washington and one in New York, that could pose serious threats to his presidency and his businesses. But the expanding legal team is struggling to understand where the investigations could be headed and the extent of Mr. Trump’s legal exposure.
The lawyers have only a limited sense of what many witnesses — including senior administration officials and the president’s business associates — have told investigators and what the Justice Department plans to do with any incriminating information it has about Mr. Trump, according to interviews with more than a dozen people close to the president.
What is more, it is not clear if Mr. Trump has given his lawyers a full account of some key events in which he has been involved as president or during his decades running the Trump Organization. ...
The sense of unease among the president’s lawyers can be traced, in part, to their client. Mr. Trump has repeatedly undermined his position by posting on Twitter or taking other actions that could add to the obstruction case against him. But those close to the president also blame the strategy pursued by the first head of his legal team, John Dowd, to cooperate fully with Mr. Mueller while negotiating few concessions.

Re: Mueller's investigation
I think one absolute certainty in all that is that his lawyers are totally in the dark and that LaRump hasn't been even remotely honest with them, for one thing, I don't think he is even capable of doing so.
The fact that you sincerely and wholeheartedly believe that the “Law of Gravity” is unconstitutional and a violation of your sovereign rights, does not absolve you of adherence to it.

The new lawyers haven't yet learned the lesson that lawyers for him did in business: always meet with him in pairs, never alone, since he lied so much.Notorial Dissent wrote: ↑Tue Sep 18, 2018 11:09 amI think one absolute certainty in all that is that his lawyers are totally in the dark and that LaRump hasn't been even remotely honest with them, for one thing, I don't think he is even capable of doing so.

Re: Mueller's investigation
I can't imagine what good meeting in pairs would do, he lies, he lies a lot and continually, he can't not lie, he also can't keep his lies straight. I wonder, too, also, if they were smart enough to get paid up front.AndyinPA wrote: ↑Tue Sep 18, 2018 11:47 amThe new lawyers haven't yet learned the lesson that lawyers for him did in business: always meet with him in pairs, never alone, since he lied so much.Notorial Dissent wrote: ↑Tue Sep 18, 2018 11:09 amI think one absolute certainty in all that is that his lawyers are totally in the dark and that LaRump hasn't been even remotely honest with them, for one thing, I don't think he is even capable of doing so.

Re: Mueller's investigation
And the other lesson: get paid up front, or the dishonest shitbag will stiff you.
Re: Mueller's investigation
It’s not to make trump tell the truth. It’s to protect the attorneys from liability for the lies. Another lawyer in the room can testify that they warned him to tell the truth.Notorial Dissent wrote: ↑Tue Sep 18, 2018 11:58 amI can't imagine what good meeting in pairs would do, he lies, he lies a lot and continually, he can't not lie, he also can't keep his lies straight.
