Hmm...are we perhaps over-burdening the prosecutor by insisting on such insignificant legal details such as a crime committed and actual evidence that the accused committed it? I mean, they’re the government, after all. You can trust them.
All three of them should be decorations on the DC cherry trees.
I’m not a lawyer but have enough knowledge of the law to be dangerous when I post on it, so I will ask attorneys on the thread to correct me if I’m wrong. I think the Federal Rules of Procedure (Rule 11?) require that any attorney filing motions and evidence in a case has to swear to the validity of the evidence so presented. If millions of the documents are in Russian and there is no translation, how can that be considered as ethical and legal under the FROC???
Is the next move by the defense attorneys to ask for sanctions and fines on Mueller’s team??? The Courts don’t approve motions for sanctions very often as it endangers an attorney’s career reputation, but even a filing is sufficient to bring the infraction of a “fake filing” to the attention of the Court and public. Correct or not?
Mueller hears Russian music playing not a good thing.
Said it before. I’ll say it again. Dear Mr. President: Exercise your Article 2 authority and end the charade. Give Mueller his walking papers, and chain him hand and foot with his coconspirators Sessions and Rosenstein. Fire every lawyer at the FBI - it’s an investigative agency, not intended as a sinecure for attorneys that aren’t skilled enough (or committed enough) to earn a partnership.
Consequences be damned Mr. President. Your poll numbers would soar. The American people have your back. The scumbags in D.C. are hated. Coupled with your diplomatic and economic victories, it would guarantee a second term - and ensure a Dem wipeout in the midterms. Even Democrats (46% in this week’s Rasmussen poll) believe a SC is needed - to investigate the DOJ/FBI.
Do it, Mr. President. Fire them all. Choose a team of the best SACs to run the agency, lean and mean. We would all be better off (except the cronies, but damn them to hell),
Good article..
I used to think that only the Communists, Nazis and Iranians conducted their prosecutions this way, but boy was I wrong.
In North Korean, Red China and Vietnamese courts today, and quite possibly Cuban, Venezuelan, Nicaraguan and Ecuadorian ones too, the defendants are basically not allowed to present a defense (i.e. defend themselves), often don’t know the charges against them until they are actually being tried (the decision already made against them), and sometimes are not allowed to even speak to the court.
The same pattern happens in Islamic Iran and in the Nazi courts of the 1930’s.
Mueller learned well from them. He is a disgrace and a megalomaniac whose very tactics threaten the foundations of our “blind” justice system.
He has got to go, and be charged with the violation of a lot of peoples’ constitutional rights. And the same for his team members who are basically as tyrannically corrupt as he is.
Fire the Special Persecutor.
