As I wrote elsewhere, I don't doubt that Powell may be good, even great as an attorney. And she probably has the goods on some bad hombres. Her doc dumps are pretty good.

I never read her book, though I'm familiar with the Enron and Arthur Anderson saga. Frankly, Worldcom was a greater story and an outright fraud, but that's for a different thread.

Again, I don't doubt that she knows the difference between a tort and a tart. But we get things like this and writers who argues that St Sidney is being kept from Trump. That is utterly laughable. If Trump wants to see someone, he will undoubtedly get an audience with that person, like the head of NK. I believe it is absurd to think that if Trump met and discussed matters with Powell, and he was positively disposed toward her, that she's being "kept" from him. Quite the contrary, if Trump wants to meet with someone, they get an audience with him - and if not, he avoids them.

To be sure, there are handlers, and people constantly whispering into Trump's ear about this guy or gal being bad etc. Trump isn't perfect - look at his AGs and the Mooch - so I am not saying there isn't any chance that someone is blocking Powell from Trump. Or that Lin remains on Trump's speed dial. But I seriously doubt both remain in close contact with the Presdent.

To wit: Bannon was once part of Trump's close advisors. He was cut loose, and many of us thought WTF. The truth was, that while Bannon was a great strategist for the 2016 election, he wasn't a great tactician in an Administration. He's an idea guy, and not cut out for D.C. There were also some other behind-the-scene things most of us didn't see (but I trust those privy to such things) and, in the end, we trusted Trump's judgment.

We are seeing a dearth of fighters. One by one, court filings and suits don't get to see the light of day. Legislatures have failed the voters. Yet, Powell and Lin are two of the few people out there, publicly fighting the PR fight when others have recoiled. I believe that's why they remain in good graces with so many people. But while I love a fighter, I also remember that MacArthur fled Corrigedor only to return triumphantly. Self-immolation isn't an option.

>>Has anyone ever heard of this fool BEFORE the election?

He’s one of the most well known and successful lawyers out there. He made his name defending Richard Jewel and has won many high profile suits for high profile clients. He was one of Nick Sandman’s lawyers.

This is all very out of character for him and he’s either gone completely nuts or has something very big.

If we use Mark Levin as the standard on whether to give credence to these lawyer’s Kraken cases or not, he last tweeted on Wood on November 14th, and last tweeted on Powell’s case on November 26th. Nothing since.

Levin is smart to hold his words. I'm sure he has plenty to say, but he knows that a good chunk of his audience follow Woods' and Powell's every word, and await the Kraken like Linus awaits the Great Pumpkin.

Roberts refused to do his job - and would not posit a question to the Impeachment Managers from a US Senator because he had inside knowledge and knew the identity of the activist Whistleblower, and wanted to protect him.

Roberts is dirty.

I think we can all agree this is an unusual tactic. I think there are three, maybe four possibilities :

1) Lin Wood is a crackpot.

2) Lin Wood is an enemy plant.

3) Lin Wood knows something and can prove it.

4) Lin Wood doesn’t really know anything, but wants to turn the process into such a circus that the absurd allegations become a weapon.

Only one of those options appeals to me, and as another poster mentioned, extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof.

“What are the odds of Roberts suing Wood”

If he’s innocent. 99%.

If he’s guilty.1%.

August 10, 2019 everybody went full retard? Served their retard to neverbuttwiperss? As if neverhumpers were somehow worth a microsecond of one's time? Why do you give two of your precious turds for what alwaysdumbbutts think?

The security cameras were turned off in the MCC, oh, forgive that, they had a 'glitch', all of 'em, yeah how bout that? And oh, the security guards were snoozing and decided to leave for home early ... yeah we're all full retards.

Oh, and this full retard tweeted the following in the early hours of August 10 before the outside world knew a damn thing about it:

J-Epstein-Switched-Out-Annotation-2019-08-10-121608

Face it, you don't like conservatives and you're glad Biden ripped the election because you have a fetish for ghouls and a disdain for persons that can make a positive difference.

What has the National Review or Rich Lowry done to help prevent this election theft. Nothing! Except attack those who are trying to stop it.

Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.”

A rule for radicals

Trump has been known to follow this at times.

Lin seems to have picked Justice Roberts..

Apply the fact the fawning, obedient, and obsequious Media and brutal Dem Machine haven’t been able to offer up an alternate John Roberts that flies with Epstein to those choices.

This will be an interesting thread to repost again in a year if Wood’s accusations prove to be true.

But did the National Review believe the story about Trump’s having a hooker pee on the bed? Did they run with it as true?

And Roberts, just so happens, refused to do his sworn duty during an Impeachment Trial.

Just so happens, a man sworn to be non-partisan won’t look at, or shake the hand of the President of the US, when he embraced Barack Obama, at the same venue.

Just so happens, Roberts covered up Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s condition and the fact her staff did everything for three years.

To me, Roberts is like a guy claiming to be an Auto Mechanic but doesn’t know he spark plugs are located.

There are major questions about this man. He has as much integrity as James Comey.

These accusations against Roberts are not new, I’ve been hearing them for several years now.

They thought Trump and his supporters were unfit - just like the pious and dirty John Roberts.

"These accusations against Roberts are not new, I’ve been hearing them for several years now."

That is exactly why it it makes no sense for Wood to make them after filing a writ of mandamus with the SCOTUS.

What did John Roberts have to say about the open persecution of Michael Flynn by a dirty DC Judge?

Why would I read, believe, or be influenced by anything written by that duplicitous Trump-hating bastard Rich Lowry?
