A senior Justice Department prosecutor in Robert Mueller’s Special Counsel office held a meeting with Associated Press journalists last spring to discuss an investigation into Paul Manafort’s financial record, a day before the wire service published a major expose disclosing alleged money laundering made by the former and now embattled Trump campaign chairman.
Federal prosecutor Andrew Weissmann, now a senior attorney in the special counsel’s office, met with AP journalists on April 11 after reporters informed him of their own investigation into Manafort’s dealings with Ukrainian officials. The reporters had reached out to Weissman on a different story earlier in the year and it was during that conversation, that the AP team told Weissmann of their investigation into Manafort, stated the sources. The AP published the explosive expose on April 12, a day after their meeting with Weissmann.
According to sources familiar with the meeting, the reporters had promised to share documents and other information gleaned from the own investigation with the Justice Department.
AP spokeswoman Lauren Easton said Thursday, “we refrain from discussing our sources.”

That’s the spin that’s coming out preemptively. Even if it was just that it’s something that then feeds the reporters to write anti-Trump stories on behalf of & sourced from HRC + DNC + Fusion GPS, not to mention a violation of codes for conduct & reason for prosecutor to have recused himself.
Weiseman violated ethics and policy. He may have violated law. The dismissal must now be granted to Manaport .The case is hopelessly tainted with this revelation. I have never seen such a disaster befalling the dims. They are in complete rout. They want to defend illegals from “sh%t hole” countries as their entire agenda of resist dissipates before their eyes not realizing that we ( AMERICA) dont want immigrants from #hit hole countries, We want them from highly educated and cultured countries, Trump was reelected tonight with that fantastically great “spade” calling. GO TRUMP!! BUILD THE WALL!!!
The swamp has won and will never be drained.

IMHO, it all comes down to somevery s imple things.
- They all thought that she was going to walk away with it and they’d be able to continue their corrupt behavior
- She lost, He won and now they’re throwing everything, and the kitchen sink at him, to save their own asses
- They’ve been afforded top cover, for so long, and have operated so corruptly and so freely, that they still think they can get away with it
- They’ve grown up thinking they can get away with whatever they want.
Exquisitely exact you are.
The one thing the corrupt swamp dwellers forgot was the NEW CONSERVATIVE MEDIA INVESTIGATORS plus a few former law enforcement people now writing books, columns and talking on radio/tv. Sara Carter, John Sullivan, Dan Bongino, Andrew McCarthy, Jim Kallstrom (FBI) and others now coming out, a couple good liberal writters at The Hill, etc.
We oldtimers look at the “new kids on the block” and cheer them on saying, “Your turn to kick ass. Our legs are worn out after decades of trying but you’ve got the conservative media on your side. All we had was a couple newspapers and Rush Limbaugh”.
But we’ve got your back on the internet!
Precisely. And with groups like Judicial Watch and FOIAs, I don’t think these corrupt POSs and bureaucrats have any idea what’s going on and what to do.
Couple that with the fact that they declared war on the guy in the White House, who apparently takes no sh*t, and the Swamp might just be realizing that all the sh*t they’ve been slinging, all these years, just might get cleaned up and some people are held accountable.
yep
Weissmann = Pure Sleaze
Both he and that d*ck sucking, sycophant behind him, need their asses kicked a very meaningful way.
..... who is the punk behind him?
some douchebag that just graduated law school and thinks he’s on his way to the top as long as he follows Weissmann’s advice at every turn.
Exactly!!! Not only have the governments created shithole countries but many of the peoples from these countries are part of it based on the culture, not their color.
Why should we import stupid, nasty people into our country?
For example, witch doctors in Africa tell men with AIDS that having sex with a virgin will cure them. Then they “reason” that baby females MUST be virgins so they rape them! This is the mentality and morality that confirms they are shitholes who have no business being imported into the USA!
Think about Islam and the Sharia law that actively demands stoning of adulterers, throwing gays off of tall buildings or cliffs and treats Christians as second class citizens. What about female genital mutilation—something practices in Africa today.
Now I’m not condemning the people but rather their CULTURE. It is barbaric and evil. That is what makes them shitholes.
No doubt the Left will claim I’m racist and say through Leftist fact checkers and Snopes I am wrong about those examples and even if true it’s just a few bad apples. But that doesn’t matter. We wouldn’t let Nazis immigrate here either.
We do not need to seek them out to come here, but rather forbid them from coming here when they come from a sick society and culture!!!

Hey, troll-boi.
The Bundy case was dismissed with prejudice.
Meaning, they cannot be re-charged.
NIce try, though.

IIRC, there’s still co-defendants trials going on/to commence...The ‘new’ evidence should make for a ‘fun’ trial.
Oh, I’m sure you’d be just DANDY with 2yrs+ of YOUR Freedom Butst because of the corruption by govt.
Want to remind me HOW many times they were ‘re-tried’ BEFORE their dismissal?? Mistrial after mistrial and STILL the govt came after ‘em.
Just another ‘Oops’ from Fedzilla:

The Constitution gives Congress the power, when writing a law, to declare it exempt from Judicial Review. Congress should write such a law requiring mandatory (no trial) prison for prosecutors fabricating evidence or hiding evidence which proves the defendant guilty.
Together with mandatory disbarment for all prosecution / government lawyers assigned to the case.
That CREEP Weissmann cost 100,000 people their jobs!

Just another example of ‘3 co-equal branches’ being nothing more than a conspiracy vs. The People.
