Kind of like Nixon.

CNN is reporting that Gorka is giving out business cards that say he works at Fox News, but he doesn't work at Fox news.  Even the logo is incorrect.


The best people.

I've pimped it before, but it's worth repeating.  Harry Shearer's "Nixon's the One" on youtube is greatness.

Maybe he's hoping for a perspective roll with a real company.

pardoned by dinner.

My question is what do Mueller and Company do in response to a pardon?

Jared and Don Jr. in cuffs within 24 hours?

Very good summary of the strategic picture behind the defense taking such a path.  Not all may apply here, but odds are that several of these reasons do apply.

I didn't read the twitter thread, but I'm assuming that one of the options is using the same logic as bidding $1 on the Price is Right. I haven't religiously followed the case, so I have no idea if this is smart or folly.

Depends....did you make it up on stage with Bob Barker or not? 

Impeached in first term is easy money imo.

Must have missed it on the snip, but I think Stone getting charged by end of year @ 56 cents is a reasonable bet at 1 unit. 

It seems like impeached (not removed) should be running slightly better odds than the House flipping blue.

According to the tapa ad I occasionally get, he’s still around spaying and neutering pets.

If the house and senate flip, I see them not impeaching and convicting trump.  That gives the country pence who might be able to win in 2020.    Keep trump in office and win the election.  They will investigate trump with no end in sight but no impeachment. 

what's up, George blow up his plea deal or something ?

That's a lot of typos in one tweet.  Did she attend Trump U?

She didn't even get her own last name right?

How do you go down on history? 

I would assume that Georgie Porgie has a solid six-figure legal bill.  That's a pretty big pig to swallow for a guy his age, even one more successful than he is apparently.

 

I thought the guinea bitch had some lire though.

It's easier, for some of us, if it's herstory.

 Looks like they are getting cold feet about pleading guilty and want to hire a lawyer to sue the government saying that he did not commit any crimes.   It would not shock me if some lawyer somewhere took up case.

Ask Monica. 

She appears to believe, and says that she testified to Congress, that Mifsud is most likely a western intelligence asset. 

Wonder how many dick pics end up in that gmail inbox.

To be fair, she looks like she would know.  

It’s also awesome how she’s already laid out the defense for said attorney.  No your honor, I’m actually George PapadopoulO...

Yes, again, no shit...attorneys take high profile cases pro bono all the time.

George and Simona Papadopoulos Look to Exit Mueller Plea Deal By Suing the Government

“George Papadopoulos is looking to break the bargain he struck with federal prosecutors after pleading guilty to lying to the FBI.

On Wednesday evening, the former Trump advisor’s wife—Simona Mangiante Papadopoulos—took to Twitter to crowdsource an attorney willing to represent her husband pro-bono.

“Attorney wanted for George Papadopoulo, Pro Bono!” wrote Simona, while misspelling their last name.

The Italian-born partner later told The Daily Caller that “George should drop his plea agreement” and that she planned “to find a lawyer” to “sue the government.”

[...]

“His role in the ‘Russia Investigation’ has been profoundly misunderstood and abused. His young life has been on hold for too long now, and all our savings are now exhausted in legal fees,” wrote Simona on a GoFundMe campaign she launched earlier this summer.

A pro-bono lawyer would provide life support to the couple’s bank account: As of writing this article, the couple’s campaign for legal fees has raised only $490 of its $75,000 goal. By contrast, former FBI agent Peter Strzok—who investigated the question of collusion until he was fired by the bureau this week—raised $418,872 through a GoFundMe page established just two days ago.”

Strzok: green wave

Papadop: algal bloom

That’s a shame.

Been off the boards for a week or so....Did Hugo get the banhammer or did the GRU get him or what? 

 

EDIT: NM I see he declared a self-imposed break a week or so ago.

Good find.  What is extraordinary about it, to me at least:  1) he didn't just trip up once or twice, he lied his ass off 2) he didn't provide much cooperation, or anything useful and 3) he's still looking at six months, and apparently no further charges.

So, they had him dead to rights, provoking the plea.  He apparently didn't do much else chargeable, that they were hanging over him.  Strange deal.  And, he's a fucking idiot.

Also, although this could be cagily worded, there isn't a smoking gun connection to Trump, ie he was instructed or coerced to lie.

There’s a lot missing in the Papadopoulos story.  You have to remember he was arrested July 27, 2017 but no one knew about it until the plea agreement on October 5th.  

They must have put the fear of god in him to collect more information on others during that two month period in order to get that plea agreement.

What he was able to collect, no one knows but it had to be enough to save him from hard time.

At least that’s my speculation.
