I’m sure they’ll do that when the court date is before Judge Eileen Cannon.

I’ve always like Catherine Herridge and thought of her as one of the “good guys” as far as reporters go. Am I right? I just couldn’t figure out why she left Fox to head over to CBS news, of all places.

Jack needs to pack:

“Special Counsel...the full power and independent authority”
<->
“The enforcement of all criminal laws affecting, involving or relating to the national security, and the responsibility for prosecuting criminal offenses, such as conspiracy, perjury and false statements, arising out of offenses related to national security, is assigned to the Assistant Attorney General (AAG) of the National Security Division. Where a matter affects the national security, regardless of the specific statute(s) implicated, prosecutions shall be instituted and conducted under the supervision of the Assistant Attorney General, National Security Division, or higher authority. 28 C.F.R. § 0.72.”

Quotes:

....
The enforcement of all criminal laws affecting, involving or relating to the national security, and the responsibility for prosecuting criminal offenses, such as conspiracy, perjury and false statements, arising out of offenses related to national security, is assigned to the Assistant Attorney General (AAG) of the National Security Division. Where a matter affects the national security, regardless of the specific statute(s) implicated, prosecutions shall be instituted and conducted under the supervision of the Assistant Attorney General, National Security Division, or higher authority. 28 C.F.R. § 0.72.

The Counterintelligence and Export Control Section (CES) of the National Security Division, under the supervision of the AAG or a higher authority, conducts, handles, and supervises prosecutions within the scope of this chapter.

Prosecution of a case involving a national security statute set forth in 9-90.020(A)(1) shall not be instituted without the express approval of the National Security Division or higher authority. In addition, in such cases, CES shall be consulted before:
an arrest is made,
a search warrant is obtained,
a grand jury investigation is commenced,
immunity is offered,
an indictment is presented,
an information is filed,
a civil injunctive action is filed,
a prosecution is declined,
a count is dismissed,
a plea agreement is filed,
a sentencing commitment or other disposition is made,
or an adverse ruling or decision is appealed.

Consultation with CES is also required in all cases in which classified information plays a role in the prosecutive decision, and all cases that require the protections afforded by the Classified Information Procedures Act, 18 U.S.C. app. 3, i.e., cases in which classified information may be disclosed during the pretrial, trial or appellate stage of the litigation.

Vermont made a commentary that provided a good point.
What are you doing that is useful? Punching letters on a keyboard and engaging in the invincible ignorance fallacy is not useful at all.

[thinden]

I feel the same about her reporting.

Maybe CBS waz trying to get out ahead of the story by hiring someone with her cred?

[Lod881019]

Tell that Beryl Howell and get back to me never trumper

[thinden]

Thanx for posting this info Brian

[Ann Archy]

Beryl Howell is just another Jewish Woman Democrat....UNTOUCHABLE for Criticism !!!

>This isn’t Manhattan district court. They are gonna find out you don’t mess around with Federal judges.<

You’re right, it’s not Manhattan District court. All of the shady deeds that happened in front of a grand jury happened in Manhattan. Why is there no indictment in NY?

The indictment came from a Miami grand jury which was merely read a summary transcript of the NY grand jury proceedings.

This may be an out for the sleazy prosecutors to avoid punishment. “That happened in a NY case that was never brought to indictment. This is a Miami case wherein none of that shady stuff happened.”

[Vermont Lt]

Mostly because they could get a trial on the docket in 70 days in FL. It would takes more than a year in NYC.

Or…did you not want a logical answer?

[enumerated]

Either that, or the strategies stated are so obvious as to require no secrecy or allow no element of surprise.

A “likely” motion to dismiss and an attempt to unseal exculpatory evidence are both no-brainers.

It’s like saying “Trump’s defense team will likely look for ways to weaken the prosecution’s case.”
