Bernstein: Indicted Trump officials could face 50 years
Axios ^ | October 28, 2017 | Haley Britzky

Posted on 10/28/2017 1:17:53 PM PDT by EdnaMode

Carl Bernstein said yesterday on CNN that Special Counsel Robert Mueller may be wanting "to send a signal to other prospective defendants," by filing his first charges yesterday in the Russia investigation.

"If this person who has been indicted, or persons, are facing 20 to 40 to 50 years for whatever these crimes are - related to collusion or not - there may be others who are subject to similar charges who have further knowledge about dealings with Russia...There are a lot of intentions that the special council is trying to convey here, I suspect."

Why it matters: The charges filed by Mueller yesterday could result in anyone charged being taken into custody by Monday.

“You know, it’s funny how Mueller could come up with an indictment in less than six months, but Sessions couldn’t do the same in nearly a year...”

So true. But Mueller has 16 dedicated establishment lawyers working for him. How many tea party lawyers do you think Sessions has in the whole Justice Department?

40? 50 years? Are these opinion journalists or 5th graders trying to grasp the meaning of a sealed indictment?

Trump stopped carrying about locking her up after he got elected. Then he apponted Sessions.

I think Bernstein, after being lionized for his Watergate work, and seeing himself portrayed by Dustin Hoffman, and surviving marriage to Nora Ephron, went on a cocaine binge that destroyed his brain.

“....20 or 40 or 50 years for whatever these crimes are.....”

Amazing.

I’ve reached the point where I hope Trump pardons whomever for whatever. Just because.

Actually I think it was Ephron who got the shiddy end of that marriage.

ITs Fusion
They made the connection with Russia
(Were hired by DNC and HRC)

Three of the four who visited DT JR at TT have been connected with them since 2015

One of their original group is now working for CNN

They’ll be in jail as long as Trump decides to keep them there...and not a day longer.

The Abscam investigation took two years and didn’t have to start under the handicap of a department that had been politicized by Obama. In the Abscam case, six members of the House and a US Senator were convicted. Do you want fast or do you want a case that leads to convictions of the guilty parties, powerful as they are with the media behind them along with the best lawyers money can buy?

Give Sessions a break. Neither you nor anyone else on FR has a freaking clue what he is or is not doing.

Exactly. The test of fairness will be whether Hillary is indicted.

Funniest thing would be if any democrat gets indicted these same liberals will downplay it so fast you won’t believe it.
