well u know he is the 2/90 = 14% dude
How exactly does one vet one's news sources to verify that they are CIA-free?
I bet I never said that. My point is he claims to be a democrat but he argues like one of the bigger Trump supporters around here.
I do like how you discard out of hand that people do that type of thing though. As if you would be in a position to know.
It ain't ing Hannity.com.
I'm tempted to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're just trolling with links like that, but your history makes it hard to conclude anything other than you're just that dumb.
That's an opinion not based on factual evidence, Chris.
Typical white flaggot.It ain't ing Hannity.com.

The Judge's opinion is the only one that counts in court Reck.
His written opinion when he actually rules is the only one that counts.
Doesn't look good for Mueller and his team imo.
As you just said, your opinion doesn't matter.
So the judge will just overlook actual evidence of crimes to let Manafort go? That's laughable and I cant for the life of me figure out why you and Darrin want to die on the Manafort hill.
He's going to spend the rest of his life in prison.
special counsel isn't some super cop that can go around prosecuting whomever he sees fit.
the judge is going to have to determine if the manafort charges are within the scope of his appointment. regardless of the weight of the evidence against him
Typical butthurt.
apparently the underlying DOJ discussion about its own regulations -- which is sort of what is at issue here, internal DOJ regs and their interpretation during the course of investigation -- envisions squeezing the target to get his cooperation. whether Manafort is en led to relief or the court is empowered to give it to him on this motion isn't clear.
https://assets.do entcloud.org/doc...-to-motion.pdf[I]n deciding when additional jurisdiction is needed, the Special Counsel can draw guidance from the Department’s discussion accompanying the issuance of the Special Counsel regulations. That discussion illustrated the type of “adjustments to jurisdiction” that fall within Section 600.4(b). “For example,” the discussion stated, “a Special Counsel assigned responsibility for an alleged false statement about a government program may request additional jurisdiction to investigate allegations of misconduct with respect to the administration of that program; [or] a Special Counsel may conclude that investigating otherwise unrelated allegations against a central witness in the matter is necessary to obtain cooperation.” 64 Fed. Reg. at 37,039. “Rather than leaving the issue to argument and misunderstanding as to whether the new matters are included within a vague category of ‘related matters,’ the regulations clarify that the decision as to which component would handle such new matters would be made by the Attorney General.” Id.9
9 The allusion to “related matters” refers to the Independent Counsel Act’s provision that the independent counsel’s jurisdiction shall include “all matters related to” the subject of the appointment (28 U.S.C. § 593(b)(3)), which prompted the D.C. Circuit to observe that “the scope of a special prosecutor’s investigatory jurisdiction can be both wide in perimeter and fuzzy at the borders.” United States v. Wilson, 26 F.3d 142, 148 (D.C. Cir.), cert. denied, 514 U.S. 1051 (1995).
The judge already said Mueller is probably within his scope. Rosenstein can back him up on that since he's the one who can say what Mueller can and cant go after.
I'd say he's pretty safe. It would be a rookie move by Mueller to not have cleared the Manafort case with Rosenstein.
or maybe, given Gates's cooperation, Mueller no longer needs Manafort to flip and will take him down the way the USG did Al Capone -- on tax and money-laundering charges.
Good. Him and Trump can both resign then.
Win/win.
Dennison's legal problems remain.
Bit of a let down imo. Unless it impacts the Mueller investigation and I'm not seeing it.
Why are you so afraid of the Mueller investigation, Chris?
the judge in manafort's civil action determined it was within the scope, iirc. TS Ellis is the judge in the criminal matter. i think we're still waiting on a decision/order on that front
judge told Mueller to send him that full non-public rosenstein memo which outlines the scope of his investigation. that was good enough for the civil judge, we will see what judge ellis thinks. not sure how long it's gonna be till that ruling
