Mueller out there making a profit for the US Government

Manafort giving 46M in assets to the US; Mueller has spent about 27M

I’m skeptical about how much he knows about Trump. Seems like he was running his own election based scams that he didn’t really have any incentive to tell people in the campaign about.

bruh get real, he's an agent sent by russian intelligence to get trump elected. he's a main part of the whole thing. he was in the trump tower meeting with junior!

i still expect him to lie and get pardoned tho. i feel like it's more than 50/50 he says, "oh no, we never talked about podesta emails and wikileaks at trump tower, that was just this minor thing with adoptions, nothing came of it" and gets some blanket pardon after trump fires mueller and abolishes the justice department on his last day in office

Guy on BBC called it a Venn diagram prosecution. Manfort and Trump have a lot of the same friends. Manafort most directly threatens Jr and Kushner though.

Maybe but hes still gotta worry about state charges. From my understanding a lot of the charges they held back/were mistrialed are ones that could be prosecuted on the state level.

Also



Also if the deal requires him to wear a wire/have all his phones tapped, if Trumps team reaches out to him about staying quiet they'll have a rock solid obstruction of justice charge.

If he knew he was getting pardoned I don't see why he'd make the deal. From my understanding the asset forfeiture is civil and is pardon proof.

If he decided to fight this and lost but then got a blanket pardon from Trump would he have been able to keep his money? Because if so then I think it makes it nearly a lock the plea bargain is genuine since he wouldn't have agreed to give up his money if he thought the pardon was likely.

Yeah, but everybody knows in plain sight don't count.

It would be hilarious if Trump pardons Manny after he gives up all his assets and is a LOL poor like the rest of us.

Hey Donny Dotard, an infant was killed after a tree fell on the house. Care to comment on that?

Fly, the guy who has posted stuff that is more anti-Semitic than Eric's comment, is lecturing others on anti-Semitism.

I hate to break it to you, but when you make anti-Semitic statements, you don't get to criticize other posters for them (and in the case of Dominic, I doubt he was attempting to defend Eric). Those are just the rules. Sorry for the bad news.

I'm surprised by this. I mean, Neil Peart is a little conservative, sure, but both Alex Leifson and Geddy Lee are quite liberal. Plus, they're Canadian, so you'd think they'd be willing to help.

And even if he is saying that, he thinks it’s a defense and better to say that a US TERRITORY was in such a bad shape under his watch? Lol.

No wonder Trump doesn't drink. He doesn't have time to. Every time he sends out a tweet, he rereads it and says "Hold my beer!" and sends out a worse one.
09-14-2018 , 07:24 PM
This is no different than ****ing Holocaust denial.
09-14-2018 , 07:24 PM
It's funny Trump keeps bringing PR up. His deplorable base doesn't care. So he's only pissing off Independents that otherwise wouldn't even know what's going on b/c they don't pay attention.

I’m like 95% that Dom was joking while repeating SUB’s comment, which I’m more like 60% on

Those dirty Puerto Ricans are just trying to get in the limelight and worm their way closer to the heart of real Americans and pretend they're not from some foreign xanadu or whatever hemisphere they're from. They should be grateful they have any vital signs at all or that any of their houses or subdivisions or traffic signals are still standing in the new world, man, and not covered up by permanent waves. We're even helping them rebuild, of our own free will, and not just with wood but with the caress of steel, building everywhere, beneath, between & behind, with help from the working man as well as huge companies, ones that are a far cry from fly by night organizations. Ones that use math and natural science, and not old technology but new stuff that's even digital, man, the stuff that costs the big money. We even told our cops to hold your fire on Ricans and give them the pass even if you feel like you're losing it with their sorry asses, just let time stand still for a minute, it's okay, treat 'em nicely, like Cinderella, man, give 'em hope, and use actions not words, show don't tell, help 'em whatever the circumstances, whether they're at a lakeside, park, or whatever - because the camera eye is on you and the fake news will go on a witch hunt and make you look bad otherwise. Treat 'em with kid gloves, put on your bravest face, show grace under pressure, and wish them well - and then afterwards, we'll just **** them over since they're brown anyway.
