After the Judge completely lost his **** today, I gotta think that Trump is going to look long and hard at a pardon.

Did he commit... TREASON?? whomp whomp
<break>
Oh I did not mean to suggest that he committed treason, I was just, ya know, curious and stuff.


My, what a curious about-face a few days bring:
Perhaps the more "skeptical" of our correspondents are curious why Judge Sullivan would sua sponte order this information disclosed to him? Well, you see folks, he has long experience with exposing miscarriages of justice.


Your "legal beagle", ladies and gentleman.
 
And frustration. Which he must hate. I find it most gratifying.

While we don't know exactly what it is that Trump did, Trump knows. And he knows that Mueller knows - if not everything than at least a good chunk of it. It's probably driving him toward a coronary (well, that and all the cheeseburgers).
 
Man, the Judge basically walked back everything he said before the break, but you will be sure that the lefty press ignores that part.

Damn, based on the judge's history, I was hopeful that he would scrutinize the government's action more closely, instead it appears that his lifelong appointment has broken the judge.

Too bad
 
If we could convert rationalization for why Trump isn't guilty and everything is going his way for realzies into actual usable energy we could solve the energy crisis overnight.

*sad trombone*

TBD, perhaps you could use your expansive knowledge of the law to explain exactly what went awry?

I, for one, very eagerly await your response.

Meanwhile, Flynn committed various crimes. So what if the judge misspoke before the break? Is that giving you the vapors?

He didn't commit the crime of treason in the same way that the Rosenbergs didn't commit the crime of treason as defined in US law despite helping Stalin get the bomb.

It's perfectly reasonable to ask whether it is treasonous though.
 
Anyone who thinks Flynn was just a good guy who was tricked into lying to Federal Investigators, and is only guilty of falling into a perjury trap damned well needs to watch tonight's Rachel Maddow Show. She reveals the indictment against Flynn's business partner,

Flynn was in this scheme up to his neck, and sold his country down the river for money. What a scumbag!

Worse yet, several high ranking officials (Trump, Pence, Priebus etc) knew exactly what Flynn was doing, knew that he was in the employ of the Turkish Government; knew that he was compromised by the Kremlin, and yet still appointed him National Security Advisor..... and if you thought it couldn't get any worse, there's more. Flynn's business partner (also in the employ of a foreign government) was on the Trump transition team, and was primarily responsible for assessing Mike Pompeo for the position of head of the CIA!!!

I mean, what the actual ****!!!
How is this a revelation to anyone?

This is a link to the video from TRMS.

Its 27 minutes long, so as usual, those with short attention spans should avoid.

I hope you aren't implying that's the only reason some of us prefer the transcript to the tediousness of waiting for the video to get to the point.

The US definition of treason allows for quite a bit of mileage from our resident Trump apologists.

That's because anyone with a brain doesn't ******* care. The judge sees very clearly with the indictments of Flynn's associates that Flynn was being treasonous and he is rightfully angered by what Flynn did. But as a judge, he realizes that treason has a very specific definition and this isn't it. So he walked it back.

The judge was and is angered and rightfully so that someone with Flynn's background could do what he did. For me personally, Flynn should go to prison for a decade. If not for the time he put in serving this country he should do more than that. That you are so willing to defend this traitor is shameful.

But Flynn probably still won't have to do prison time so the pardon is unnecessary.
 
What you call "histrionics" I call entertaining presentation.

I happen to like Maddow's style of news story telling....a far more pleasant listen than Carlson, Hannity or any of the other lying & bigoted twerps over at Faux News.... you mentioned histrionics?
If she didn't start the story as far back into the less than relevant chapters as she does, I would completely agree.

But also spent several minutes giving him an option to back out of the plea because he was concerned about the questioning.


Weird day
 
Trump Tweets

Biggest outrage yet in the long, winding and highly conflicted Mueller Witch Hunt is the fact that 19,000 demanded Text messages between Peter Strzok and his FBI lover, Lisa Page, were purposely & illegally deleted. Would have explained whole Hoax, which is now under protest!

Good luck today in court to General Michael Flynn. Will be interesting to see what he has to say, despite tremendous pressure being put on him, about Russian Collusion in our great and, obviously, highly successful political campaign. There was no Collusion!

Russia Dossier reporter now doubts dopey Christopher Steele’s claims! “When you get into the details of the Steele Dossier, the specific allegations, we have not seen the evidence to support them. There’s good grounds to think that some of the more sensational allegations.....

...WILL NEVER BE PROVEN AND ARE LIKELY FALSE.” Thank you to Michael Isikoff, Yahoo, for honesty. What this means is that the FISA WARRANTS and the whole Russian Witch Hunt is a Fraud and a Hoax which should be ended immediately. Also, it was paid for by Crooked Hillary & DNC!

Michael Isikoff was the first to report Dossier allegations and now seriously doubts the Dossier claims. The whole Russian Collusion thing was a HOAX, but who is going to restore the good name of so many people whose reputations have been destroyed?
Are you just quoting Trump or are you agreeing or adding your own nonsense to the post?

Could people please clarify which are words they are quoting and which are not and what they do or don't think are valid things to say or not? A couple of quote tags "" go a long way. :mad:

SCO's Van Grack: "With respect to treason, the government has no reason to believe that the defendant committed treason"

What the hell is going on over there? Is the judge intentionally ******* with the General and his family?

This is the craziest ******* thing I have ever heard.
Judge Sullivan is clearly a hardened Democrat.
