Doesn't the person have to be convicted or plead guilty to be pardoned?


Yep, and just think about all the stuff that will probably come out during the trial!


Are you kidding? We can’t even get bank records from Fusion GPS who hired a foreign national who paid off Soviet sources in the dossier. FML.

To think the Department of Homeland Security was created to break up silos. Russia didn’t do thison their own. Obama admin and Hillary and her attorneys did this.


OK, Russbots, you're getting a little more creative! Keep it up! It's entertaining!

How do you know this? And why would they be there tonight? What time does the FBI usually move in to make a surprise arrest? 4:30 a.m.? 5 a.m.? Usually the perps are up and ready for them, dressed in their perp walk suits.

Big wow. Your head has been spinning ever since your person lost.


Haha.


Criminal lawyer here-she is correct. Issuing the pardon becomes a new crime. Not sure why this is amusing, I think it is pretty serious shit.


The response was funny. As a criminal attorney, I’m sure you are well aware this is all speculation. You are also probably aware leaks re: a sealed indictment are also illegal.


I don't see what's funny about the criminal lawyer's response. She said that if Trump is an unindicted co-conspirator (as Nixon was), that if Trump pardons whomever Mueller arrests, those pardons become obstruction of justice, a new crime committed by Trump. That seems clear and very serious. Not funny at all.

Leaks about a sealed indictment are indeed illegal, but that's a separate matter.

When Mueller ran the Enron investigation, he arrested the wives first to get the husbands to give up the goods.


So, Ivanka? I could see wire fraud.


Ivanka's guilty on the Azerbaijan hotel deal. Can't remember the exact crimes. Google the New Yorker story. She's as crooked as her dad.

not a lawyer but...that means he can't pardon the other conspirators, right?


It’s a bad idea. Terrible really. Worse than firing Mueller. Possibly obstruction of justice. But he probably could, technically. Because he hasn’t been convicted. It’s weird territory. For sure.

The big deal here is that it would mean that Meuller has found evidence sufficient to indict Trump on something, but he can’t while Trump is in office, because a sitting POTUS cannot be indicted. It is the big red arrow pointing at Trump saying “this guy committed this specific crime with these people, so it’s time to impeach him”. Nixon resigned about six weeks after it became public that he was an unindicted co-conspirator.


Who do you all follow on Twitter that has good intel (i.e., has actually been right about something in the past)?


A bunch of alt-Federal accounts. Which do a surprisingly good job of tapping into the Feds (the deep state in action, ladies and gentlemen. I said I’d bring bagels to the next deep state meeting right?). But this looks like pure, unadulterated, wouldn’t it be great if speculation. Hence the use of the word rumor. Although I think this also popped up on News and Guts today.


I do believe there's a dishonest effort to get Trump removed. It's pretty clear now. That's the really bad part if he IS removed. This is all pretty banana republic, from the media being in bed with the Dems, etc. We put Catalonia/Spain to shame!


Trympskyite/Russbots -- your syntax is revealing.

Mueller will never bring charges to democrat royalty (Clintons & Obamas). He wants to be in history books, he wants the best NY Times obit there is, so he's going to be a thorn in Trump's side by pressing the people around him. He'll get Trump to resign going after Kushner and/or Don Jr.


I believe this to be true. It's not about democratic royalty though. It's more about $$$


Which is why he left a multimillion dollar big law partnership to be a fed? Really?


Nearly all of the lawyers on the Mueller team left multimillion dollar law jobs to work with him. They have integrity, as Mueller does. Money doesn't mean as much to them as doing the right thing.

Mueller, don't forget, is a Republican. He'd love to get any Democrats who are guilty of criminal acts.

The dishonesty was Trump stealing the election. He has projected every single one of his wrongdoings. When he said the election was rigged, he wasn't lying.


can you name the number of ballots in he states that went to him that were fraudulent? And can you prove they are fraudulent? Seems Stein's recount only uncovered fraud by Dems.


Oh, my, really scraping the bottom of the barrel arencha, Ruskies?

Money, power, and fame make people do really bad things, right?


He was the guy who brought down Enron.
The former head of the FBI
Probably one of the highest paid attorneys in DC


He had money. He had fame (among people who pay attention anyway). He had power. And he is going out of his way to be as low profile as humanly possible. He gives no comments. He never speaks to the press. He never leaks. (Thank God) he never tweets. He never gives interviews. No one ever seems to snap a photo of him eating dinner in Georgetown with his wife, FFS.


He never leaks? BWAAHHAHHAAA. Then CNN is lying.


It's difficult to translate English into Russian, but if your reading skills were a little better, you'd notice that CNN never mentioned Mueller as a source. Oh. But you know that. Silly me.

Those were some very intriguing remarks.

One has to wonder why there’s so much effort at this time to discredit a candidate that didn’t win and a party that has no power.

It’s almost as if, a year later, they’re launching the game plan they would have run after she won.

But they didn’t have to, because Trump won. And Republicans control all three branches of government. And that government has PLENTY of issues that need to be addressed.

So why pull all this stuff out now?


Turns out governing is hard. And governing without committing crimes is even harder. Who knew?/s


Correct!! Hillary couldn't even win by cheating! When Trump won, lots of criminals in DC panicked. This Russia crap is the result.

Someone who doesn't give a crap what liberal think of her?


She's not making much sense. She's had a bit to drink. It's all good.

Tomorrow we'll see what's up Mueller's sleeve. Unless he fakes us all out and makes us wait till Tuesday.


Actually, it's probably due to the 11 hour drive I did, the last three being in the driving rain. And I get to go the other direction on Thursday. You see, some of us actually DO something during the day rather than push papers.

Or a grand juror leaked. Or Courthouse staff. Or a Judge. Or defense attorneys who were notified. Or a target, who was notified. The list of non DOJ folks who knew is lengthy.


And Mueller is ultimately responsible. I don't see much fury from him about those leaks publicly. Do you?


No. Mueller is not responsible if a Judge’s law clerk leaks. Or the Clerk of Court leaks. Or a defense attorney leaks. And you don’t see public fury from him. Because you never hear anything from him. Because he is a grownup and a professional. Which means he is quietly trying to find the leak. And doing his job well in as low profile a way as possible. IYou may think it is normal for leaders to have a twitter meltdowns and scream at people to DO SOMETHING! In fact, it is not.


Why can't he control his people?

Nobody is going to perp walk this guy or these guys. It’s sealed so they can self surrender. And that will be after businesses open. My dedication is no news until after lunch. Likely late afternoon/evening. And no perp walk.

You don’t seem to get it. Many people who know ARE NOT HIS PEOPLE. The Court is a separate branch of government. Grand jurors and defense lawyers are not federal employees at all.
