Investigating visa fraud for Haitian kids into the US.

But he, uh...went and suddenly downed:

But hey, LOTS of people swim.

In shoes and a three-piece suit.

AT MIDNIGHT.

OMG...These people were WORSE than I thought.

I would like NOBODY to be guilty of human trafficking, because nobody should be doing it....but, if anybody should be punished for past deeds of any variety it that horrible, horrible law firm.

I do believe the Clinton ‘Cookie’ is “crumbling” .... slowly, but the pile of crumbs is getting larger.

Hold the phone here. Law firms routinely hold funds in client trust accounts. They are used for funds that do not belong to the firm. Could be a retainer that has not been billed against as earned for services. Could be funds belonging to the client that are likely to be forfeited or seized. The fact that the law firm’s name is on the account means nothing. I’m not ready to give Perkins Coie a pass on their involvement in Hillary 2016 but this is not proof of anything.

Still not seeing a thing happen legally to the Clintons. About the only coarse of correction i can envision is frontier justice, but that would require a level of sacrifice that doesn’t remain in this country.

IF TRUMP DOES NOTHING ELSE

DAYENU for my Jewish FRiends.

What President Trump has done to fight global human trafficking, most behind the scenes, has been good enough for me. No lefties or Bushes ever tried.

Before folks get all hot and bothered, we should know the source of the funds that are being seized.

I knew an attorney that worked at Perkins Coie associated with Backpage.com. His job was to review “advertising” to see if it crossed the written policies that defined it as advertising prostitution. He found the job absolutely disgusting as almost all the advertising was either for escorts or massage parlors and there was a lot of sexual innuendo in each.

Perkins was hired by Backpage to monitor its advertising and advice it on ads that crossed the line. That way in court they could argue that they were not promoting prostitution. If the money being seized was for this kind of service, yes Perking Coie is a sleazy outfit, but not sure that makes them guilty of sex trafficking. Even prostitutes deserve to have legal representation.

Davis Wright Tremaine is another massive law firm. They are in the same league as Perkins Coie.

I don’t think I could imagine the joy I would feel if we live to see the Clintons perp walked and jailed for their crimes against humanity. When I talk to most liberals about the horrible, horrible things their two heroes have done, they do not believe me. Only the Bernie followers believe, and know the truth about the Clintons. What justice. How profoundly satisfying would it be, for them to reap what they deserve for all the lives lost?

Why post from the WSJ if we can’t read the article? Frustrating.

Very well said.

That same feeling motivated me when I first joined FR —what..?

I guess 21 years ago, good God.

Soo many times I’ve been bitterly let down yet I never stop hoping.

I’m praying so hard...

LOL!

No, all we did was traffic a few less tax dollars to Illinois.
