Nope nope nope, that's not how special prosecutors work. They always come out with the heavy guns first, they don't want them running for cover while they give their plans away by indicting the little fish first. They put the big whammy on the people at the top, and go down from there. It's the opposite of 'slowly I turn', they want the heavy hitters nailed to a wall right away so it flushes out the smaller fish below them. Mueller just shot his big cannon today and it was full of everything he has, cow pies.. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

SOOPOO Member since: Feb 19, 2014 Threads: 22 Posts: 4157 | The only thing I know for sure is that both BBB and EB are guessing. Neither knows if Mueller is done or will be able to 'climb the ladder'. But I do know that with each charge that person's testimony is now being bought with 'if you give me Trump you don't go to jail'. Anyone who believes otherwise is just plain naive. You may hope for 'independent corroboration', but I doubt the prosecutors in this case care. |

Lets see what Mueller has No way would I dismiss evidence I have not seen yet like SOOPOO is doing Soopoo doubts the prosecutors already I want to see the evidence I don't think anybody can really have an opinion on the prosecutors till Mueller reveals his cards I support all investigations in Washington DC regardless of what party is in power I simply don't trust power regardless of who or what party has power I support ALL investigations regardless if its Ken Starr, Benghazi or Mueller Lets see what Mueller has before condemning his investigation Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

How about compelling someone to testify WITHOUT offering them a deal? You afraid the person testifying will only say what you want if you offer him a deal? If you don't see how that giving someone a deal before they testify taints the testimony, then I can't cure your blindness..... |

You should be a mafia lawyer Is John Gotti innocent in your eyes? Lets throw out Sammy the Bulls testimony and declare Gotti innocent I believe Joe Villachi. I read the book. A dirty person that made a deal and came clean His testimony has the ring of truth. So you think Joe was lying and everybody in the Mafia are boy scouts? You condemn the evidence before its even presented Such a closed mind. sad. My mind is open I want to see the evidence before I make a decision I heard the testimony from Sammy the Bull. It had the ring of truth Dirty people come clean and help convict dirtier people. That's how real life works in the justice system Without the testimony of dirty people coming clean, the jails would be empty.

No.question I'm guessing. Mueller's people are too close-mouthed for anyone to know much for sure (which I applaud). But I stand by how they are working. There are several avenues they seem to be pursuing. Social media infiltration and interference Money laundering Obstruction of justice in hindering the investigation Collusion with Russian infiltration Activities allowing potential blackmail or vulnerability I would think there's an enormous amount we don't know. And a lot more investigation and indictments to come. They also seem to be finding not just anti-HRC activity, but interference in the primaries against non-Trump Republicans, and possible collusion with the Stein campaign. Who knows how big this gets? Never doubt a small group of concerned citizens can change the world; it's the only thing ever has |

Not really. I've been listening to former special prosecutors talk about this since it started over a year ago. They all say the same thing, you get the evidence from as far up the chain as you can go, lock it in, and then pounce on the highest in the chain first, with both feet. Mueller runs the leakiest investigation in special council history, anything bad involving Trump gets leaked by multiple sources. We aren't hearing squat. FBI works the same way. Secret investigations, lock it down as far up as you can go, then swoop in on the highest in the chain first. They never arrest the mail room clerks first, it's always from the top down. I've been hearing this over and over for a year. The Russian thing yesterday is a joke, they're all laughing at Mueller. One official said he should have indicted a ham sandwich, at least you could get it here to testify. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
