Russian firm wants to disclose 'sensitive' US government info in Mueller court fight

What if Mueller’s “sensitive info” consists of screen shots of Facebook ads and a plastic decoder ring?

If the government deems that sensitive enough then it will serve the purpose for graymail. The government is the one that created the problem be declaring it sensitive.

Well, for starters, the primary goal of the participants of our legal system is not to discover facts or the truth. It is to make good conviction numbers or to get the client off.

“There’s only one reason why a defendant like this would even bother showing up in court: to undermine the prosecutor and the credibility of the entire U.S. justice system. “

Hmmm. Russians are usually limited in resources, both human and financial. I’d say that the US justice system is already doing an exemplary job of undermining itself on numerous fronts. So, why would they bother?

A Clinton judge, a Bush judge, an Obama judge, or a Trump judge?

Didn't Chief Justice Roberts, who swore in as president a usurper not illegible to the office, recently declare that there are no Clinton, Bush, Obama, or Trump judges?

Personally, I have looked at the “Russian Troll” ads on Facebook, etc. and they would not have changed any votes.

I for one am much more concerned about how MI-6 and Australia conspired with the Obama intelligence hacks to spy on Trump. If there was foreign collusion in the Presidential Election it was by the UK and Commonwealth countries.

This is so good. I hope the judge consents.

Looks as though, despite the warts and problems, you could not find a better system, as you gave no example.

There's only one reason why a defendant like this would even bother showing up in court: to undermine the prosecutor and the credibility of the entire U.S. justice system.

If the prosecutor can be undermined, the prosecutor should be undermined. If the credibility of the US justice system can be undermined, it should be undermined.

The truth is what matters! Expose all and let the voters decide. Ignore the sensibilities of FVEY!

Robert Mueller is not loyal to the same country we are. We are loyal to America. Mueller is loyal to the Deep State. The Deep State must be defeated! Mueller is a traitor!

If only you were right on that....

THis is just another good reason you don’t file political indictments just to “look good”, against foreign entities, using classified sources you don’t want to reveal.

No, she has investigators thoroughly greymailed
