DOJ and FBI corrupt ...they never go to trail....make up a huge amount of charges...so the defendant will cop a plea..if they go to trail..10percent
they taint the jury by throwing thirty charges and the jury thinks they must be guilty of something.

For a guy who was a strong “Never Trumper” back in 2016, McCarthy has posted a number of columns in which he lays out a very strong, logical case against the silly accusations about Trump’s collusion with Russia.

Well, by lying to the FBI, he did discredit himself as a witness against CINC, no?

Exactly.

Which is why he's not going to be a witness against anyone.

Very old joke. Having children is hereditary...if your parents don’t have children, chances are you won’t have any either.

That’s probably gonna be in Samantha Power’s pile of 260 requests, most of which were made in her name without her knowledge.

You are so on point.

Anyone heard from Session’s DOJ? Anyone? Anyone?

Flynn had $1M+ legal bills according to a report I heard today. He was out of money and had to take out loans on his house. Mueller had the upper hand in that regard...

What a relief. Also, I think, an embarrassment for the FBI.

And that’s always how the feds work. They meticulously and patiently wait until you financially bleed out.

Nothing from Sessions.

I wish we had an attorney general who was on our side, and would arrest people who have obviously broken the law.

So much for the “law and order” president.

>Does this mean the “Hillary-I don’t-recall-defense” is no longer valid?

Only if not a Democrat. The legal system is corrupt.

Sure did. Unless of course, he has some sort of documentation or some docs Mueller manufactured for him.

Actually, that's the point where Mueller no longer has any leverage at all.

MUELLER: "You'll be facing months of litigation and millions of dollars in legal bills if we take this to trial."

FLYNN: "If that's the case, then charge me. I'll fire my lawyers today, and tell them to mail their bills to you. And I'll tell my bank to mail my mortgage bills to you, too. If I'm going to be broke, then going to a Federal prison might be my best option right now."

MUELLER [after a long pause]: "How about you plead to one count of defacing Federal property for that time you urinated on JFK's grave in Arlington National Cemetery?"

FLYNN: "But I didn't do that. I'd never do such a thing. It was Ted Kennedy's grave, sir. Can't the FBI get anything right these days?"
