#1 Let Manafort's accusers be known or be silent.

#2 On what charge is he held?
On what warrant?
What FISA Warrant request for a Counter Intelligence probe?
How does this turn into a Felony investigation? At what POINT?


You have gone fishing and you are horrible lawman and a worse human. And if I did Chamber on this, I would release Manafort of the basis that you deprived a Man of His Liberty without these 5 witnesses.

Raid a Family Home at 4 AM, and make a search and seizure on a CI Investigation sounds to me like Mueller is really up the river with no paddle and needs to consult a lawyer of his own.

You have NO POINT OF Evidence or scope and your FISA Warrant means nothing in THIS Court you dumb asshole.

One more abuse of power is all I ask for Mueller because I go after YOU next.

#3 Don't call Rosenstein. His impeachment is well under way.

Also, I have open Murder on you with that Bulger thing. You are no hero. I have bad paper on you forever.

Know when to fold, Mueller.

#4 ...Oh, goody. Secret witnesses.

#5 Wouldn't it be hilarious if the witnesses were Russians, colluding with Mueller?

#6 Wouldn't it be hilarious if the witnesses were non-existent ?

#8 In the past _real_ patriotic Americans fought wars to prevent the British from doing shit like this to us.

#9 No further investigative information on the DNC Awan tech issue, the Debbie Wasserman Schultz laptop, or the 30,000 missing Clinton emails can be released. All of this data is now part of an ongoing indictment involving 12 Russian hackers. An indictment that will likely span years, possibly decades before final resolution.

#10 No. Next stupid question?

#11 One does not simply seek immunity in exchange for testifying unless one has some criminal exposure.

#12 The STASI reports here show you Crimes Against The State! How do you plead, Comrade?

#13 If Mueller's case depends on secret witnesses, it's hard to see how he actually tries this case. I'd look for a chickenshit plea deal on the eve of trial.

Which for some reason reminds me of the old Arkansas lawyer who was so good that he got a charge of "sodomy" reduced to "following too close."

#14 Shouldn't he seek immunity for himself?

#15 Right, JohnQC, the main purpose for this immunity is to shield these five from liability for their own crimes of colluding to subvert a presidential election.

I had to stop for a moment to recover from appreciating that fully, Matt.

#17 Secret witnesses that get immunity are probably named Hillary, Mueller, Comey, etc.

#18 Isn't there something about being able to face your accuser? I read that somewhere... some old mouldy document no doubt.

#19 Maybe the real purpose of this snipe hunt is to grant immunity to a bunch of the big turbans behind this treason.

#20 When all else fails I am sure John McCain will testify to anything from his death bed.
