Thread: Russia Investigation Heating Up

  1. Default

    President Donald Trump got the news cycle buzzing bright and early Monday morning with a series of tweets railing against special counsel Robert Mueller. The president, however, also said something that was perceived as no mere wink and nod to Roger Stone. White House counselor Kellyanne Conway‘s attorney husband George quickly said that you could file Trump’s words under ’18 U.S.C. §§ 1503, 1512′” — or that the tweet amounted to witness tampering and obstruction of justice.

    Well, at least one former federal prosecutor seems to agree. CNN legal analyst Elie Honig, a former Assistant U.S. Attorney with the Southern District of New York, said that if he had heard over a wiretap what Trump just tweeted he would have been giddy.

    What about witness tampering? “He’s pretty close to the line,” Honig said. “He is right on the edge of witness tampering.”

    “Federal law makes it a crime to do anything to dissuade, try to postpone or delay someone’s testimony,” he said. “When you look at the president’s tweets from this morning, if I was a prosecutor and we had a wiretap up on someone’s phone and they said those exact things that the president tweeted, I would say, ‘wow, we just got him on obstruction.

    It's funny watching CNN trying to make a crime out of literally sending out tweets and then right on cue Androidpk is there to gobble up all of the fake news directly from the source.

    Um, okay? That has nothing to do with someone bringing a charge to trial instead of plea bargaining, as everyone else has. It'll expose a lot more to the tactics he has used. Again, if Corsi is completely honest about what the investigators are doing and the way they interrogated him, it is going to make this entire investigation legit look shady af. Pressuring people into plea bargains and requiring them to give more false statements? If he is truly doing that, then yeah, Mueller is going to find himself being investigated.

    You mean the multiple lawyers (conservative ones as well) and former federal prosecutors saying what Trump did is illegal? That fake news? Did CNN make these people up and give them fake quotes? Seriously, stop trying so damn hard to be a useless troll.

    It's a good thing you're not a cop.

    Oh, you're fine with people being coerced into giving false statements? It is good to know you don't have any authority, whatsoever.

    Show me evidence of Mueller coercing people to give false statements. 33 people charged and only Corsi has mentioned this? Sounds like he's full of shit.

    Well, when it goes to court there'll be plenty of evidence if he did or didn't. Like I said, I put "ifs" in there. If he is telling the truth. We'll find out soon enough.

    Or the charges will be dropped because it is kinda hard to prove that he was intentionally deceitful.

    I am an expert in the law because I watch Law & Order reruns & A Few Good Men so what I have to say is really important.

    Ultimately Mueller will want the truth and those being charged will tell him he can't handle it. It will all be solved within an hour with a twist roughly about 50 minutes in with some moral about the ills of today's society. So stay tuned.
