Did Mueller’s Team Violate Manafort’s Constitutional Rights? They May Have.
La Newz ^ | 10/30/2017 | Rachel Stockman

Posted on 10/30/2017 11:08:04 AM PDT by scooby321

Ex-campaign adviser Paul Manafort turned himself in Monday after being indicted for money laundering, and a slew of other financial crimes. The feds alleged he illegally funneled millions of dollars of payments into offshore bank accounts in order to avoid detection by U.S. authorities as it related to his work on behalf of former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych. While the indictment containing Manfort’s alleged criminal activities is very detailed, and well-documented, there is one area that could hurt Mueller’s investigation. Mueller’s team may have obtained evidence in the raid of Paul Manafort’s home that was not covered by the search warrant. That could be problematic.

As far as having a search warrant and picking up other stuff than noted in the warrant, I think the concept of plain sight comes into play here as they were there legally.

You trust their honesty?

Mr. Weissmann's real record as a "special prosecutor" is so egregious that Mr. Mueller's decision to choose his former counsel Weissmann should cause concern for anyone with even a passing interest in truth and justice.

Yes, this is true.

This is so obviously subversion, and under false pretenses , (at the minimum) there is no other intent here by Mueller

" 1 :the act of subverting :the state of being subverted; especially :a systematic attempt to overthrow or undermine a government or political system by persons working secretly from within"

If they had a SOL problem, I doubt Gmvt would have brought case.

Likewise, if Defs had a SOL Affirmative Defense, I would have expected it to be raised at arraignment.

re: bail, $10,000,000. Total BS. At most, $1,000,000 secured by real property and let him walk.

I guess my problem is that either this Manafort guy is an absolutely brilliant fellow who knows this entire matter will fall apart, or he is the biggest idiot on the planet.

If this has been talked about for months (and it has) and you have incriminating documents, HOW THE HELL DO THEY NOT DISAPPEAR MONTHS AGO? In fact, if they were incriminating, why would they have ever been in your house in the first place?

It's a big, big world out there. A whole lot bigger things than documents can be hidden in it!

Yes, it is breaking news.

And not a blog, and even if it were it’s quite newsworthy.

Don’t expect to get certain news stories from the MSN.

Your point is interesting.

The DOJ truly needs to investigate how many points of crime throughout the past several years, by the Clintons and Obamas, have been covered up by our own DOJ and FBI, and how they many are likely related, bringing us up to this point in time.

I know it is not the necessarily the point here, but wasn’t it Hillary and her husband who actually financially created or recreated/salvaged the company Uranium One between 2005-2007?

There is a real history between the Clintons and Uranium One here.

Much of this was not classified and has now been revealed.

And NO, this should not be dismissed by so many!

It has already been revealed the Clintons and team Obama did not simply illegally export “yellow cake” to the Russians for massive cash infusions. And who knows what other efforts were carried out.

The Clintons actually owned or controlled Uranium One in advance of Hillary Clinton being appointed as SOS by Obama, Bill Clinton meeting with Putin in the Kremlin, and the resulting deals with Russia for 20% of our strategic uranium supply in exchange for massive cash infusions.

What’s more, it would be just plain foolish retard stupid to believe this money was not used for continued left wing Clinton and DNC political campaigns which themselves would further Kremlin strategic objectives!

As well, each of the agency heads appointed by Obama, which signed off on this Uranium One deal, were literally close allies, confidants, and previous agency appointments of Bill Clinton. This included nearly every player at the top of the DOJ and FBI who worked to cover up dangerous and actual egregious crimes committed against the US in favor of Russia.

Now, let’s put some of what we know together.

It has already been admitted by Hillary, that Bill Clinton had maintained private servers from the time of his presidency. This was part of her actual verbal defense while under soft and false predetermined investigation for her very real server scandal before the election by the FBI Director Comey.

((Remember, this server activity included a massive cover-up itself. TS/SCI\SAP information was passed along on her private server, as well as access given to use Hillary’s profile by many individuals without clearances, or “need know clearances”, who had regular access. It is also known several foreign intel services gained/utilized access from this server set up. I have been told this included, but was not limited to: Russia, Iran, Pakistan, Turkey, China, North Korea, France, and Germany!))

Rhetorically, being it has been revealed the Clinton server rack was not protected, and contained TS/SCI\SAP classified information, how would these proactive cyber entities from around the world not have gained access to some of our most sensitive classified information!

Knowing this actually took place, how would our entire intel community not be compromised at this point! On the other hand, being almost all of these agency heads were left wing activist, why would they care, as neutralizing the imperialistic and racist US would be essential to the objective of creating external global governance!

Meanwhile, the left wing activist media and press, many with direct ties to the Clinton and Obama administrations, as well as left wing intel and justice agency heads, continue to parade the false notion of purity of the Clintons and Obama, and the Server Scandal, Uranium One, and the Russian derived “Dossier”, paid for from what essentially amounts to US born money laundering through a law firm, Fusion GPS, a British spy, and the Kremlin.

Additionally, while “collusion” is not actually against the law, it is clearly illegal to give money to a foreign government in an effort to influence an American election.

This has now been widely revealed as having happened between the Clinton Campaign and the Kremlin, through what is essentially US born foreign money laundering, in an effort to hide the evidence!

By her own admission just over a year ago, because the Clintons had been using a private server set up since Bill’s presidency, it is highly *LIKELY* significant foreign interaction with the Kremlin and Putin took place through the illegal use of the Clintons very illegal use of their private server(’s)!

*The use of this private illegal server farm would also serve to deflect heat away from ALL involved with the many illegal foreign activities with many foreign countries, including cash, and I believe including Obama!

The server provided near bullet proof PLAUSIBLE DENIABILITY to all US derived left wing activity around the world to further their global left wing objectives!

Over time, it is entirely likely this grossly illegal server activity included foreign efforts with Uranium One, Skolkovo, and “Unmasking”, as it would make it much harder to officially trace, if set up and used with AA (anonymous accounts), and much harder for incriminating evidence to be found WHEN the Clintons were DELIBERATELY given substantial time to destroy the hard drives by the Obama JD AND FBI!

There are multiple felonious crimes against the United States here alone.

Remember, the destruction of documents, hard drives, and phones by the Clintons, resulted in NO CHARGES by the Obama JD and FBI!! Just as there were no charges by the same administration and DOJ about Uranium One, Skolkovo, UNMASKING, and the Kremlin derived “dossier”, which LIKELY provided the impetus/justification for “Wire Taps”, and what many believe to be the strategically planned SC appointment of Mueller!

Recall, this timing and cover-up effort by the JD and FBI included the infamous “meeting” between Bill Clinton and the Obama AG Loretta Lynch!

Each one of these specific program titles; Uranium One, Skolkovo (bigger than Uranium One), Unmasking, and the Kremlin derived “Dossier” (which provided impetus for Wire Taps on team Trump), also involve large or massive cash transactions going both back and forth, and have one foreign government and country in common... RUSSIA!

More specifically, cash transactions between the Kremlin and the leadership of the DNC!!

TALK ABOUT COLLUSION!!!

And collectively, *BOTH of the Obama AG’s and BOTH FBI DIRECTORS PROACTIVELY worked to COVER UP - Uranium One, massive Foreign Cash Payments, ILLEGAL use of Server/Hard Drives, foreign infiltration, destruction of EVIDENCE, unmasking, and wire taps, and again the likely strategic effort to continue the “COVER UP” through “DIVERSION” by getting Mueller himself appointed as SC to investigate everyone in the Trump White House, without any defined legal boundaries!!

If the left had not pulled ofF the appointment of Mueller as SC, to go after all things Trump, then Trump would not have a legal impediment to get a real Independent/Special Counsel to go after the true “high crimes” which have exposed our nation strategically, and nearly gutted our legal system and intel communities.

As well, it is now being reported the Clintons and their associates gave $12,000,000 dollars, and Obama was involved in payment of at least $1,000,000 for the Russian “dossier” information.

Correct me if I am wrong...

As well, were not the Podesta Group and Paul Manefort working together, and at least involved with the Clintons and possibly Uranium One during the same timeframe?

It has also been reported Paul Manefort was investigated between approximately 2007-2009, while he worked with the Podesta Group and the Clintons (during Uranium One creation), by Mueller at the FBI, and again in 2010-2014 by the FBI. Why would Mueller and the egregiously guilty FBI let Manefort go during these earlier investigations, for the same exact crimes Manefort is now being charged with by the now Special Counsel Bob Mueller?

How does this not send up some red flags!

If I am correct, a lot of forward looking strategy and activity with the Clintons and their associates happened between 2005-2008. During this political time frame, there had been a good chance Hillary was to be elected POTUS as well. Think of the ramifications…

From what I have read, it strongly APPEARS the Clintons were intricately involved in the very creation or take over Uranium One between 2005-2007, which would later be used directly, with the appointment of Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State, to illegally export American uranium to the Russians (via Canada), in exchange for massive infusions of cash to the Clintons.

After her appointment to SOS, at a minimum, from the Uranium One deal with the Kremlin, the Clintons banked and contributed significant money to the DNC.

After the appointment of Hillary Clinton as SOS, there can be little doubt, some of the money from Uranium One, which they owned, also found its way into furthering their left wing objectives and future campaigns.

Why would the Clintons be involved in the creation or takeover of a uranium company?

I am sure the Clintons did not simply have a hobby in uranium!

Of course we now know actual “yellow cake” was illegally exported over our northern border, involving Uranium One, and the smuggling covered up!

Smuggling seemed to be someone’s hobby during both the Clinton administration, and during the Obama administration.

These guys were dirty.

During the Obama presidency, think guns to Mexican drug cartels, massive drug smuggling back into the US by the cartels, people smuggling onto our soil from points around the globe – by way of Mexico (wink, wink), weapons smuggled through Bengazi to Syria on the way to AQI/ISIS, “yellow cake” uranium to Russia, cash flown to Iran etc...

Going back to their time in college, the Clintons and Obamas backgrounds have only ever been as anti-American activists and left wing politicians. So it should not be a surprise they were not bound by love of God, the principles necessary for liberty, moral boundaries, or our country.

There are a lot of rabbits trails to get lost in.

In this case, if an investigation were to target Uranium One, I believe there would be multiple ways this particular case should not legally fall under statute of limitations.

It is not only plausible to prove crimes committed with Uranium One, but to prove an ongoing/current cover-up, which includes many RICO and FISA laws broken and PROACTIVE criminal efforts by the Obama administration (to the end of his term and beyond), the JD, and the Clintons, working DIRECTLY with Putin.

It has involved threatening and muzzling witnesses, and keeping them from testifying before congress about illicit felonious RICO related offenses. They literally used the JD to cover up real crimes and strategic and dangerous activity with Russia (a true Tier 1 Strategic Threat to the US) to strengthen Russian nuclear power.

This level of corruption and its known cover-up were also obvious to Russia, and gave Russia a powerful “CARD” or inroad to influence future American policy!

Just think of the likely Russian influence in our US foreign and domestic policy, by pressure applied through the felonious corruption related blackmail of a morally challenged and “sold out” POTUS.

Russian foreign policy and power would much more likely be attained and reflected in US foreign and domestic policy to benefit Russian strategic objectives.

Even then, left wing America would probably not object, as they are anti individual freedom and anti-American anyway.

Again, Russia has been and is one of only 2 Tier 1 strategic threats to the US, with thousands of nuclear warheads aimed at our defenses and populations centers, and uranium/yellow cake was illegally shipped out of the US to this Tier 1 Russian threat. This has continued more recently than the past 5 years. Our JD and FBI under Mueller, covered up shipment of nuclear material to our most powerful nuclear threat for money!

As well, this threat is an ONGOING strategic threat IN PART enabled by the massive corruption and illegal anti-American activities and ongoing cover-ups of the previous administration!

While we would be told otherwise, the Clintons did receive 10’s of millions of dollars (approx. $150,000,000) surrounding the time frames of direct meetings with the Kremlin and Putin himself.

It is entirely likely, being Mueller, Comey, Rosenstein, both Clintons, Obama, Obamas JD, and many other big fish being directly involved in all of this, were very much involved in an attempt to control media and congressional narratives and efforts directed at the Trump Administration as a critical strategy to continue the massive corruption and cover-ups of their own very real anti-American crimes committed.

This is yet ongoing, and cannot be resolved without a true American Soldier and lion appointed as Independent/Special Counsel.

If AG Jeff Sessions actually loved America and valued our freedom, he could not stand back and let this real destruction of our legal system and Constitution take place.

Sessions cannot hide from RINO’s and left wing socialist congressman, and simultaneously preserve our freedom and country!

If not stopped, they will absolutely destroy our freedom and nation.

If being in plain sight means opening a day planner at the target’s desk and reading what’s therein penciled, I believe you’d be correct.

But if a computer file is at issue and that file’s interpreted data were not covered by the original warrant, the answer might fall differently. If to interpret and appreciate what is in such a file requires a sophisticated, modern computer with multiple software elements from different vendors, it would arguably seem no longer to qualify as being in plain sight, even if it’s thumb drive container lay in the same desk as the day planner.

Yes, that was my interpretation of plain sight. Would have to examine the application for the search warrant and see what was covered by it to be as accurate as possible. The plain sight doctrine is subject to interpretation and therefore we use the term might be. If you are searching for intellectual property and that is listed in the warrant, I say they are covered. If it was “documents” it could very well be it is not covered as a file of bytes may not be considered a document per se. I’ve been out of that arena for many years now so my personal knowledge is very limited on computer law history. Thanks for the note.
