Wait a minute - these guys investigated a Presidential candidate? Isn't that what they impeached Trump for?
I am outraged.

This part warms the heart...
During the jury's decision Friday, Avenatti was seen in court blessing himself before the verdict was read. He looked straight ahead with a sad expression on his face. After the jury read the verdict, his lawyer put his hand on his shoulder as a gesture of comfort to Avenatti. Sentencing is set for June 17.

Avenatti was the darling of the Dems and MSM when he was trying to take down the President, but he outlived his usefulness and now they see him as radioactive. He should have applied for a job with the DOJ, where no traitors ever go to jail.

Actually, he's now fully qualified to be the D nominee.
