You mean to tell me that there are no Republican lawyers in this country? Why do these investigations primarily consist of democrat investigators?


Mueller/Weissmann hired literal Hillary and Obama White House lawyers to assault POTUS and his supporters. I kid you not.

Re investigation during Clinton presidency:

By Andrew Kreig
In September 2008, the Bush Justice Department appointed career federal prosecutor Nora Dannehy to investigate allegations that Bush officials in 2006 illegally fired nine U.S. attorneys who wouldn’t politicize official corruption investigations.
But just four days before her appointment, a federal appeals court had ruled that a team of prosecutors led by Dannehy illegally suppressed evidence in a major political corruption case in Connecticut. The prosecutors’ misconduct was so serious that the court vacated seven of the eight convictions in the case.
The ruling didn’t cite Dannehy by name, and although it was publicly reported it apparently never came up in the news coverage of her appointment.
But it now calls into question the integrity of her investigation by raising serious concerns about her credibility — and about whether she was particularly vulnerable to political pressure from within the Justice Department.
Now, almost two years later, Dannehy has provided arguably the most important blanket exoneration for high-level U.S. criminal targets since President George H.W. Bush pardoned six Iran-Contra convicts post-election in late 1992.
The DOJ announced on July 21 that it has “closed the case” on the nine unprecedented mid-term firings because Dannehy found no criminal wrongdoing by DOJ or White House officials.
But the official description of her inquiry indicates that she either placed or acceded to constraints on the scope of her probe that restricted it to the firing of just one of the ousted U.S. attorneys, not the others — and not to the conduct of the U.S. attorneys who weren’t ousted because they met whatever tests DOJ and the White House created.

SDNY sent a posse of postal inspectors from NYC to Florida. They convoyed down in tehir own vehicles. Contrast that to the Washington Generals/DOJ throwing the coup “investigation”.

“Trust Sessions”.

Sessions appointed Huber to look into it.
Where is that Bulldog Huber anyway these days?

Slightly on topic, when I asked my mom what my belly button was she said "Well after babies were ready to be born, God would go down the line and test each baby, poking them with his finger saying: You're done, You're done, You're done ...

Long time ago.

It is my hopes and prayers are that Sessions gets interested in fishing.

I hope he takes his dog with him each and every day. I hope Sessions never lands a fish and his dog falls into the water and dies.

I hope Sessions is so upset over the sudden death of his dog that he falls to the ground crying so hard that he pees and messes in his pants.

I hope he spends his final days on his porch in a stupor thinking about how things could have been, and that he craps in his pants twice each day.

I hope his wife gives him the nickname of Stinky.

I hope that Stinky catches the pool guy in bed with his wife.

Radio Reports from CT say Durham and Nora have worked together for many years, and she was the first person he called when he got the assignment,

Remember, Tom Fitton said this Durham investigation is a fake Investigation.

Prosecutors come and go, she is at retirement age.
............
If she was so concerned about the pace of the work, why quit and make the process even harder?
............
From October 2013 to March 2019, she was employed by United Technologies Corporation as Associate General Counsel for Global Ethics and Compliance.
...........
She likely will go to a part-time corporate counsel, Board of Directors gig.
...........
This isn’t about Barr. Maybe she is a Trump hater and wants to make a splash on her way out the door.
...........
Maybe she isn’t needed anymore???? Indictments about ready????
.........
All I want for Christmas is to see Comey doing the perp walk.

It’s amazing how deep the swamp dwellers go. Even if Trump gets another four years I doubt he will be able to ferret them out,

Old Sessions just doesn’t want that closet opened up.

All of Washington loves someone with Secrets.

We’re going to find out they’ve done nothing.

That’s why Tom Fitton says it’s a Fake Investigation.

The only small fish indicted, came to them! He showed up with his lawyer wanting a deal. He’s looking at 0 to six months AFTER the Election.
