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’re in luck. It appears Mueller only went back 11 years.

Evidently he thought the Russians did a lot of prep work with Trump to help him fraudulently win the 2016 November election.

You seem to be Sessions’ biggest cheerleader. What has he done, but recuse himself, to make you think he’s doing anything?

Getting tired of reading how Mueller should be attacking the real criminals the Democrats. He is not Special Counsel to jail Democrats bur to get Republicans. He is a communists liberal Democrat with the object to destroy President Trump and will if let continuing.

Sessions is still asleep. He is totally and completely useless.

What evidence is there to the contrary?

Thanks EdnaMode.
"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."
IOW, based on the excerpt, the blogger is just a Trump-hating moron and party-line shill, who doctored the headline to spin off into la-la-land.

If any one gets 50 years because of Mueller Hillary should get 150 years.

They will get presidential pardons, most likely.

Hatchet job. Justice will eventually be served. It's just hard to endure the corruption until it happens.

GHWB will come out smelling like a rose because he is an old man in a wheel chair, but he eventually got accused. That's all it takes a few accusations, a few well-placed rumors.

The whole business is criminal.

Bernstein probably knows no more than anyone else about who will be indicted and on what charges, but by speculating that the person might get 40 or 50 years in prison he gets a lot of attention.

If someone broke a law, s/he should be prosecuted.

You should check the facts.

Sessions Has Already Recused Himself from Investigating Hillary Clinton.

Yet Hillary, Lerner, Comey, Lynch and all the other Obama criminals still run free. What is Jeff Sessions doing? Start locking them up or resign.

I have not seen any evidence of Mueller actually doing anything of the sort. This remains a completely made up story by CNN to divert attention from its criminal activities involving Fusion.
