Balderdash.......
Newt Gingrich said it best.
Democrat are orgasmic over Cohen, Manafort......and some boobalicious ladies Trump knew.
But midterm elections will center on the murder of Mollie Tibbetts at the hands of an illegal.
I think judge Ellis might sentence Manfart to time served.
If I were Trump, I wouldn’t pardon Manafort. Even though Manafort might never have been prosecuted if they weren’t going after Trump, I think Manafort is dirty.
But I absolutely would pardon General Flynn and George Papadopoulos.
I think Manafort was sent as a plant by Oleg Deripaska.
“this does not seem like the place for him to make his stand.”
Yes, Donald should let the corrupt system run over people for political purposes.
Same with illegals murdering people..just look the other way.
It’s all for the “greater good”
If I were Trump I would announce that I would not consider pardoning Manafort if the Podestas were being investigated but that if they were not then I would take that as indicating malice on the part of Mueller in prosecuting only Manafort. A malicious prosecution deserves a pardon.
There will be no pardons... until after the mid-terms.
It is my opinion (based on nothing more than watching the way President Trump operates) that he and his staff have not been idle over the past two years.
The DOJ and FBI are not the only law enforcement agency the Government has. It has become obvious that both the DOJ and FBI have been corrupted but it is not clear if the smaller agencies have been (such as the Marshal Service that investigates crimes against the government, or the Secret Service which has authority over the protection of the President). A case could be that a cabal of traitors have attempted a coup d’etat against the United States.
Have no facts, but it is possible while Mueller has been chasing phantoms real law enforcement have been gathering evidence which will lead to the arrest and conviction of the conspirators.
While all this is going down, President Trump can pardon all those caught up in this witch hunt.
We can dream can’t we?
This is a battle. Trump should tomorrow morning fire Müller, rosenstine, and sessions. Then pardon manafort. In the afternoon he should go to the WH press briefing and kick Accosta out, and then in the briefing ask Cohen Id he wants a pardon or mullers deal. Explain that Clintons lawyer is going around saying Cohen would rather go to jail. Ask him publically if that is true. Then announce he is taking over the Justice dept until Congress is ready to confirm his next appointment.
Don’t think twice, it’s all right.
As far as the “Healthline” thing he mentioned, I have now, and I recommend you do as well, properly label such things as what they truly are: Lysenkoism.
Trofim Lysenko. (d. 1976)
Although its impossible to say for sure, Trofim Lysenko probably killed more human beings than any individual scientist in history. Lysenko, a Soviet biologist, condemned perhaps millions of people to starvation through bogus agricultural research, and did so without hesitation.
Lysenko believed wholeheartedly in the promise of the communist revolution. So when the doctrines of science and the doctrines of communism clashed, he always chose the latter, confident that biology and genetics would conform to ideology in the end. It never did.
But Lysenko pushed so hard to tell his communist masters, especially Joseph Stalin, *exactly* what they wanted to hear, the insane sin of Lucifer, vanity, that they could create or change all of *reality* at will, because they were so “special”, like they were God, that they gave him wholehearted support.
And that *anyone*, especially other scientists, who disagreed with him, no matter the evidence, was brutalized and often killed.
If this is starting to sound a little familiar, it should, because one of the more recent incarnations of Lysenkoism is the theory of Man Made Global Warming.
That a small, man made fraction of a trace gas in our atmosphere, itself a tiny fraction of the whole, can force our truly immense atmosphere to bend to its will. A bacteria on a flea, piloting an elephant to go where it demands. In other words, utter hooey.
Or, as I label it, Lysenkoism. Ideological demands that reality *must* bend to their will, just because they say it must, and damn all evidence to the contrary. Just because their ideology is so *perfect* that they will never accept that it is also utter hooey.
Since the bad science of the 1970s, Paul Ehrlich’s “The Population Bomb” hoax, which has *never* been condemned by the left as bogus, the still living fraud periodically honored by the left, other Lysenkoist efforts have come and gone. Finally getting their second win generating public hysteria with the Man Made Global Warming hoax.
But since that nonsense is also winding down, lesser examples of Lysenkoism are still growing, like the whole gender nonsense thing, so while met headlong with skepticism and scoffing, should importantly also be properly labeled as what they truly are.
Lysenkoism.
In the Soviet Union, Lysenkoism effectively ruined the study of genetics for many decades; in the US and much of the western world, Lysenkoism has ruined the study of climate, likely as well, for decades.
We have “The Population Bomb” to blame for most of the abortions that happen around the world. Death toll in the tens of millions, at least.
Vanity has a bitter price, counted in human lives and misery. All to justify late 19th Century ideologies that should have long ago be dismissed as crapola.
So never consider Lysenkoism as a joke. It is murderous from start to finish, and needs to be slapped down as soon as it happens.
Trump didn’t “waste” the jury’s time...Mueller did.
Of all the stupid reasons for not using the pardon power to reset an injustice, this has got to top the list.
If a car service department performs an unnecessary expensive procedure instead of the necessary oil change, you'll fight to get the bill reversed, won't you? And Damn the feelings of the technician who did the work, no matter how well it was done!
“Trump is being criticized for giving money by people that steal money”
He still has another trial upcoming. All his sentenced jail time should be minus time already served before he was convicted.
Shut up already
After the midterms do whatever the hell you want to Trump....start by firing Mueller and Sessions and Tosenstein and anyone else in DOJ/FBI that is a hold over
Well, no. As I read the juror's response, I get that she thinks the result sucks, but they had no choice.
The Feds took a look at that awhile back and passed on it. Manafort's offense was being a Trump supporter. The process was designed to leverage up Manafort to "sing or compose." Manafort got a raw deal, especially when compared to the Clintonistas.
This seems to speak strongly to Trump.
