Crime Ferris Mueller's Election Off (Mueller thread v. 24)

[MikeMcMann]

She's too left for me but she's very smart. I wouldn't want to debate her.

Ya I am not a fan of hers either. Everything she touches on you can find in the actual transcripts and court documents she references. She just serves as a one stop shop for all the stuff, summarized and in a way you can fact check everything she cites. So I like it because she makes it easier for me to do my own fact checking

And her analyses are insightful. I wonder how much of her guesswork about these matters will turn out to be correct.

Observation:
Trump hires Best Person ™ for job >
Best Person ™ is eminently qualified and stuff >
Said hire is caught up in criminal enterprise >
Trump distances himself from Best Person ™ and minimizes how much they did for him

Question:
What does this pattern indicate?

I’m pretty sure the Bush family hates Trump and if possible would had put Senior on ice for a few months if it helped put him away.

I guess Bushes don't think it'll help "put him away".

Ya i generally mostly ignore the 'guess work' or the 'narratives' provided by any of these talking heads anymore. The main value for me is they point to factual documents and situations I can then look up or verify elsewhere.

Basically they serve as a rolodex for the important issues if you don't want to try and suss out all the source material yourself.

The Trump admin is like a choose your own adventure novel except no matter what page you turn to there’s more crimes.

Cancels his G-20 press conference for a bullshit reason.....lol

Their malfeasance is like underdone toast, always popping up

At this point, Trump could eat a Jewish baby on camera, and his dipshit fans (they don't really deserve MAG titles anymore, they're just character bereft dipshits) would be lockstep:

Interesting article. Did trumps cronies have a false sense of security when they testified in the house because they knew the gop led inquiry was a shame?

Devin Nunes needs to be put in a hole somewhere. About as easy an example of a King's stooge as there has ever been in America.

Let's keep this in mind, that Mueller was the can FBI Director who allowed 9/11 to happen on his watch despite all the intelligence available at the time.

This is not someone you want to entrust with solving election interference puzzles. Just my 2 cents.

Yes, it was all his fault. Not the atrocious way in which inter department information sharing was prosecuted pre 9/11. I'm sure it was Mueller's fault when he entered his position a month before 9/11.

He was also the guy who took down Noriega, John Gotti, numerous terrorist cases along with drug traffickers and high level corruption cases. What a can.

Is this the new Russian talking point?

She once did a segment on the history of US/Russian embassy building that was, and I say this as a historian, extremely good. By "embassy building" i'm talking about the negotiations, eventual construction and mind blowingly sneaky (on the Russian's part) espionage that went into the joint embassy agreement between us. It was a pretty big deal during the cold war. If you ever want to see some solid history broken down by a journalist, look that one up.

The tangential talking points to avoid the bad news on the right (Trump news) are going to get stupider and stupider. Buckle up.

Ukraine must be treated with respect!!!

What talking point? I've just read up some facts from his biography. He was entrusted with protecting the public and he failed miserably on 9/11. Someone has to take the blame, and I'd look no further than #1 law enforcement agency that he headed. The Boston bombing was also under his watch and was completely preventable. Then a few other attacks that only didn't happen because the "bomber" was too incompetent. He is nothing more than a glorified bureaucrat, IMO.

So..... we should stop the investigation because 9/11. Solid logic.

C'mon, that's strawman. I'm saying to take his investigative abilities with a grain of salt and manage expectations. I think he made it so high up not because of his investigative abilities, but rather political connections.
