Mueller generated headlines with the February indictment, safe in the knowledge the 13 Russians were beyond U.S. jurisdiction. Therefore, there would be no trial only sensational Russian collusion accusations.
Mueller may now have to try the case, and Concords lawyers have put the special counsel on notice. The Russian companys lawyers intend to invoke discovery to obtain U.S. intelligence about what they knew of Russian activities. I guess Mueller thought it was a freebie, for sure, former federal prosecutor Andrew C. McCarthy told The Daily Caller News Foundation after the court proceeding.
He thought it could make this association (of Russian collusion) and it would never be challenged in court, McCarthy, a National Review contributing editor, said after the proceeding.

Concord retained the services of two attorneys at mega law firm Reed Smith, and the company is demanding a speedy trial. The lawyers indicated they were going to exercise Concords rights under discovery to examine all of Muellers evidence of the conspiracy.
In starting Wednesdays trial, Eric A. Dubelier, a Reed Smith law partner, entered a not guilty plea in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. He also repeated his clients interest for a speedy trial.
McCarthy called Muellers entire indictment an unforced error.
One thing you never want to do is to indict in a case that youre not prepared to try, McCarthy said.

That is beyond awesome!
(Could you maybe put it in your homepage and do a link next time?)
The game is for all the marbles
I think that everyone that matters in DC knows that simple fact.
The left is resisting mightily before the imminent total destruction
Put it or shut up Herr Mueller...
ThanQ for this monumental bit of work!
Each of us should archive this -- and read it thoroughly...
Serious accolades, FRiend!

AMEN!
THANKS.
Thanks! Will be sharing that.

Ordinarily, the desire to protect sources and methods would kill a case like this. Mueller’s team will announce that they have no “discovery” materials to give (they just puled that on Manafort) because it’s all secret, and the defendants, uh, don’t have security clearances, and, uh, the evidence is unrecorded verbal communication. If they have shopped for a Democrat judge, that will be deemed sufficient. If they haven’t, and the judge calls BS, the Left will cry whitewash. This ain’t over til its over.
ThanQ!!

The only way to hold the swamp at bay is to awaken the public.
That may require many reminders that: "swamp" = "deep state" = "shadow government"
Hillary's private email server comes to mind as something that should have been but was never properly presented in a way that the masses could understand: as a second set of books.
Half of voters are average or less than average intelligence. We need simple associations (e.g., Trump Russia) to get the message across to them.
Clinton and Obama colluded not with Russia and Ukraine only. Remember “Five Eyes.” I believe all of those “ally” nations made very large donations (read investments) to the Clinton Foundation on behalf of their respective tax payers.
GCHQ head stepped down the next business day following the election. There is a a HUGE story here waiting to come out. Vast, convoluted conspiracies and “pay-to-play” enterprise involving many more governments than these. Spanning the globe.
The Swamp needed to manufacture a basis for spying on and ambushing Hillary’s opponent. So of course they had to go with the collusion narrative.
Classic liberal projection strikes again. They just can’t help themselves.
They want a speedy trial from slow poke Mueller? Good Luck. If Mueller drops the case he should resign as it proves his incompetence.
Hillary once bragged that she, alone, was brought into Putin's inner sanctum
where she assured Putin she was worried about wildlife like he was.
Putin whispered to an attentive Hilary that they were BFF.
Secy Hillary and Obama were eager to please Russia w/ the friendly reset button.
Hillary later said the reset gambit was Obama's and her idea "to strengthen Russia."
==============================================
Ex-Pres Clinton is s-o-o-o-o friendly he traveled to Russia to clinch the uranium giveaway deal.
And to pocket a $500,000 dollar speaking fee from a Moscow bank plus a sizeable commission.
Billybooboo even laid his "Hot Damn Hokey Hillbilly Act" on Putin.
The myopic Mueller and the corrupt FBI crowd see Russian agents behind every Republican filing cabinet. But they are sickeningly apathetic about Obama, Hillary and Bill Clintons policies, decisions, and actions that gave aid and comfort to Russia.
Obama and Hillarys major flopola——the much-mocked Russian reset button-—— established the tone for Obama and the Clintons coziness with the Kremlin.
BACKSTORY On March 6, 2009, during a trip to Geneva, she presented Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov a small, red button. Halfrican Obama, and Secy Hillary thought it was emblazoned with the Russian word for reset. The button actually read overload. Nonetheless, Clinton and Lavrov jointly pressed the symbolic button. A new era in USRussian relations had begun.
THE OBAMA/HILLARY RUSSIAN LOVE AFFAIR-—While visiting Moscow on March 24, 2010, Secy Hillary explained the Reset Buttons purpose: Our goal (meaning Obama and the State Dept) is to help strengthen Russia.
HILLARY’S STATE DEPT——AND THE OBAMA YEARS-—UNRELENTING SCANDAL / By Ari Lieberman
EXCERPT The taxpayer financed-Skolkovo Scandal While serving as secretary of state, Clinton oversaw a program meant to reset relations with Moscow and improve ties. The program centered around the Russian city of Skolkovo near Moscow with the stated aim of identifying areas of cooperation and pursuing joi nt projects and actions that strengthen strategic stability, international security, economic well-being, and the development of ties between the American and Russian people.
Hillary’s State Dept program transformed Skolkovo into a technology hub akin to a Silicon Valley. Sensitive American technology was transferred to the Russians, substantially enhancing their military and cyber capabilities. The US Army and the FBI concluded that Russia had exploited the program for military applications.
The FBI warned American technology companies doing business in Skolkovo that the Skolkovo project was a means by which the Russians would acquire dual use technologies and apply them for military ends.
According to investigative author Peter Schweizer, Russian and American companies and individuals involved in the Skolkovo fiasco had major financial ties to the Clintons.
Moreover, during the Russian reset period, those entities provided the Clintons with tens of millions of dollars in the form of contributions to the Clinton Foundation, paid for speeches by Bill Clinton, or investments in small start-up companies with deep Clinton ties.

Outstanding!!!
One crucial item for your timeline.
Recall in the final weeks of the Obama administration the sudden gutting of barriers to interagency intel sharing. I remember at the time knowing there was something deeply diabolical about this. It’s now obvious it was done to allow free passage of “intel” gleaned from the illegal surveillance of their political adversary between 16 or 17 different agencies.
Now, when the inevitable geyser of leaks erupted, instead of a handful or fewer readily-identifiable potential leakers, they were legion and spread across numerous agencies. Leakers throughout the government who could anonymously corroborate each other and add credence to the whole Russian collusion narrative.
How many leaks with attribution to unnamed government “sources” did we hear and read about during those tumultuous, infuriating months? More specifically, how many leaks divulged information about, or gained from, the FISC-authorized “counterintelligence” investigation?
Incredible work, thank you. Bookmarked!
