Because Democrats can kill whoever they want and get away with it because they are Democrats..why do you think they want to repeal the 2nd Amendment so badly..its Hitler’s motto, can’t defend yourself if you are no longer armed..they would have us all in ovens if they had the chance

Exactly. It is mind-boggling that a Watergate prosecutor would make such an absolutely absurd suggestion.

An attorney says that talking to an attorney proves guilt? I wonder how that would fly if the prosecution used that to get an indictment. “Well he did retain an attorney” Judge: “Warranted granted!”

Apparently FISC judges have an even lower standard than that.

Akerman seems incapable of telling the truth.

To ‘retain’ an attorney means you signed a representation agreement to be a client. It usually includes a payment up front as a deposit against future billable hours.

Hannity has said he never did that. He said that he had only called or talked to Cohen ocassionally with questions about real estate and no money changed hands.

So, we provide legal counsel to indigent accused. Does that mean they are all guilty?

Obama had personal lawyers. Should he have been fully investigated because of that?

Obviously Ari Melber should be investigated for talking to Akerman.

Yes, all of them. By the time you've graduated law school you've talked to thousands of lawyers.

I’m assuming you’ve hired a lawyer or two at some point in your life Mr. Akerman. What did you do wrong to consult with them? What a moron.

So now Republicans are evil if they get legal representation?

I guess that makes it pretty clear what the Left has in store for us if the get power again.

Hmm, didn’t Bill Clinton hire the best attorneys money could buy?

The outright insanity of the libs is almost comical.....IF it wasn’t so serious.
They’re in frantic, outright, panic mode and pulling out all the stops.

Nick Akerman, you are old and your mind is feeble, it’s time for you to drop dead.
