Foreign company in possibly Mueller-related secret case heads to Supreme Court
The unnamed company owned by a foreign country that is challenging a grand jury subpoena issued in federal court in Washington is asking the Supreme Court to step in.
This week, “Corporation A” that is owned by “Country A” lost its challenge against having to comply with a grand jury subpoena that many believe has been issued by special counsel Robert Mueller.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit rejected the challenge by the company to quash the subpoena late Tuesday night.
On Saturday, the company formally filed an application with Supreme Court, asking it to intervene and stay the lower court's decision — and has also asked that the case remain under seal.
The company is also asking the Supreme Court to halt the continuing $5,000 per week fine it is incurring for not complying with the subpoena, an effort Judges David S. Tatel, Thomas B. Griffith, and Stephen F. Williams of the D.C. Circuit also rejected this week.
Legal expert Steve Vladeck said on Twitter that if the Supreme Court takes up the case and keeps it under seal, it will be the first time the highest court in the land has conducted plenary review, including oral arguments, under seal. MORE..
No clue. Didn’t,feel it, nor heard any explosion and we probably would have.
Let me scan the Paradise fire pages I frequent, many members are now in Oroville.

In spite of the fact that USGS called it a Chemical Explosion (as seen in the link above), Bitt has posted some info disclaiming it as being part of blasting/construction.
Although, additional commenters beneath that article have stated that the construction was supposedly already finished.
Anyway it’s a dead issue for me at this point. Thanks.
Certainly the fact of “No Leaks”, whatsoever, from Huber or Horowitz gave me pause, meaning that phenomenon would be explained, IF, there was no pursuit happening and no interviews going on. A little scary, admittedly.

I liked this from UPSDRIVER:
“The subject of the investigators never interviewing key witnesses keeps coming up. If they “have it all”, why would interviews be necessary? Seems to me that the less contact with those waiting to be indicted, the better.”
ransomnote: If you have complete records on crimes, seems like that would be enough to get an indictment. THe “less contact” angle would help keep calm other in the vicinity committing crimes. Everything kept still on the surface of the lake....
Already got the message. Thanks.
After a year of all this stuff, the brain and ears SHOULD be buzzing.

Chaos is Mattis’s call sign.
How awesome is that?!
I would love to see POTUS get MSM in prime time exposure for a fire and brimstone “chat”,
where he pulls out all these videos and just buries the RATs with them.
Would MSM take the bait ?

VERY! I think even Chuck Norris would concede that’s awesome. I’m betting Mattis earned it many times over. Remember his reply to the news anchor who asked him, “What keeps you awake at night?” Mattis said easily, “Nothing. I keep other people awake at night. “ :)
I recall John Kerry supposedly objecting to the SS codeword for him, “Saw horse”. He’s lucky they didn’t go all out with “Horse Face.” Hahahahah
Yes easy. you never been around blasting areas before?
Like when they put a freeway in or something?

That does make perfect sense around hard evidence. The only other incentive I can think of, for questioning targets, is poking around to induce them to implicate others, widening the noose, to collect witness statements. Still, it all goes back to... if they have it all..
