Meanwhile, Inspector Closeau is arguing before Judge Ellis that the SC lawyers were authorized to expand the scope of the original mandate. He claims that his team were special assistant United States attorneys.

Who authorized and why? Special assistant US attorneys are generally unpaid, entry level positions.

Do your own research. If you haven’t confirmed this yet, you’re a pathetic researcher.

Look up John Lausch and Cody Hiland while you’re at it.

Sorry reality bursts your little bubble.

Larry, I follow you all the time on your Twitter feed, and also check out sundance at thelastrefuge2 as well as a couple of others. One thing I wanted to tell you that I haven't heard discussed too much on Twitter is this:

You don't wake up one day and decide to do something like these folks (Brennan, Clapper, Comey, Yates, McCabe, etc.) did this time to Trump. You don't dare try to pull this off with this big a team on your first go-round. The willingness to do this evolves slowly over time. I bet these guys have been doing this for many, many years, and have been doing "About Queries" on leading GOP candidates for years.

I bet they did this to Romney, and almost certainly did it to Rubio, Cruz, Carson, etc. And by "this" I mean dig up dirt using the 702 "About Queries" and their favorite private contractor. I bet they have a huge database.

I sure hope at the end of all this, someone has called for a retrospective SC investigation going back at least 4-8 years.

I wouldn’t play poker with the Donald for real money. Can’t tell when he is bluffing, or has the nuts, and he usually has the nuts!

My team thinks that this was all done as a dry run in the Iran deal where Zero found he could manipulate the press.

But I agree, it was NOT spur of the moment.

How is it that anyone thinks that this guy is easily snowed? On top of everything else, he is literally awake and thinking about how to outsmart his opponents while they are in bed, sleeping. -------- LOL

Bottom line: we’re NOT seeing all of the cards here...because Trump isn’t going to let his opponents see them until it is too late for them to do anything about what he has planned for them. Trust the man - he wasn’t born yesterday, and he’s as smart as just about anyone out there. --------- I hear you.

We’ve got eight years for justice indictments trials and hangings

We've had 40 years waiting for Clinton Justice so we have practice.

I bet it goes back much further than Iran. Perhaps, though, you mean the coordination of such a large team doing this. That may be true. However, this abuse of About Queries by letting independent contractors mine dirt on political adversaries is much longer, imho. If they could get McCabe, Ohr, Page, etc., to sing in exchange for a reduced sentence, we might find out.

More hysteria from the “Sessions isn’t doing anything” crowd.


And you can take it to the bank.
We have a plan. Q </s>

That one misinformed link is your only proof? Pathetic indeed, especially when combined with your abysmal track record.

Sad little researcher. Can’t find your own links. Nothing at all “misinformed.”

Do you ever bother to actually research anything? Look at the letters from Grassly. I ‘ll give you one hint: look for the phrases about “except for information related to the grand jury.”

Now, off with you. This is an adult conversation.

"except for information related to the grand jury.”

Mueller's grand jury, obviously. Who is targeting Trump, despite your crackpot theories he's been targeting Hillary all ths time.

except for information related to the grand jury.

Most likely the DOJ was simply reciting their rules about things that they redact.

Excerpt from the Rosenstein letter:

I would think that listing the three reasons for redaction is standard procedure and that it would neither confirm nor deny the existence of the three items, that a grand jury exists, that there is an ongoing law enforcement action and that there are attorney-client communications.

Huber has a grand jury in Northern VA.

Our only question is whether Cody Hiland has “the” grand jury that has also been empaneled in Little Rock.
