Mueller team proves people can be incapable of learning. (vanity)
Common Sense ^ | 12/4/18 | Baynative

Posted on 12/04/2018 10:57:40 AM PST by Baynative

Like millions of Americans, I am following the Mueller witch hunt with a lot of interest and a lot of disgust.

The destruction of our justice system going unchallenged by 95% of our congress and legal scholars is angering many of us.

But the fact that none of these people being set up and charged need to relinquish their rights is a particularly astonishing thing to see.

I can't understand how none of these intelligent men; Flynn, Papadopoulos,
Manafort, Cohen and Corsi have not learned to use the "Get out of Jail Free"
card perfected by Hillary Clinton.

All any of them needed to do to save their skin and their money
was say," I don't recall!"

Problem #1
Flynn, Papadopoulos, Manafort, Cohen and Corsi don’t have the FBI files that will allow for that defense.

Like millions of Americans, I don’t give a rat’s patootie.

That’s a good point. I wonder if those files were used to leverage the support of Mueller and Rosenstein for the Uranium One deal.

Not sure how long this style of defense is going to work for Hillary either. At some point in time....the old saying is...”those chickens will come home to roost”.

Of course. EVERYONE in government service at that time was compromised by the files.

Am I under arrest? Yes, then I want a lawyer. No. Goodbye.

Am I free to go? Yes. Goodbye. No. I want a lawyer.

Prosecutor: “Mr. Citizen, before we get into collusion with Russia, I’d like to ask you about November 22, the day the President was shot”

Joe Citizen: “Do you mean President Kennedy? I wasn’t born until 1969.”

Prosecutor: “We’ll let’s put that aside. Have you ever taken an illegal substance?”

Joe: “What has that got to do with...”

Prosecutor: “Isn’t it true that you’ve taken copier paper home from work hidden in your brief case.”

Joe: “I don’t see how...”

Prosecutor: “Please tell the jury how many times you have driven home after several cocktails, knowing full well that the legal limit is .08%”

Joe: “I don’t have to...”

Prosecutor: “... and didn’t you falsify your IRS return by stating that...”

Joe:” I want a lawyer”

Prosecutor: “Why do need a lawyer, Joe? Is it because you are NOT TELLING THE TRUTH?” - “What is it you are hiding from the people, Mr. Citizen? Do you know that deceiving a grand jury is a FELONY OFFENSE?”

Joe: “But, I’m not...”

Prosecutor: “ OH REALLY? Let me ask you if at anytime in your life, even as a child did you ever think about ...ever even consider harming someone of another race or gender? What about the president, or a member of government? -— THINK CAREFULLY, MR. CITIZEN - YOU’RE UNDER OATH!”

You have not been paying attention.

When they do that they are charged with "lying to the FBI".

No. They let that work for Clinton. They would not tolerate it from the unprotected. They would simply threaten business and family till one folded.

Mueller was obviously tasked to conduct political oppo-research against Trump. The Democrat evil-doers hope to get
enough dirt to use against Trump in 2020. Mueller is a tax-paid terror, ruining people, simply because they support Trump.

Moreover, Mueller is a willing tool of the Democrats. After Hillary lost, the impotent Democrats were cutoff from power.....
that drove them nuts....they were at their wit's end. So they connived to get Mueller to do the heavy lifting for them....
with our tax dollars.

Conniving Democrats' scheming never ceases ---they inveigled a public prosecutor to work for their political goals.

===============================

LAUGH BREAK--MUELLER SUCKS UP TO HILLARY: Mueller's team (cough) said Flynn provided "substantial" help to investigators
about "several ongoing investigations"......and (WOW) "firsthand information about the content and context of (cough) interactions between
the [Trump] transition team and Russian govt officials."

ROTFLOL

If Mueller shares with Democrats anything he found in the course of his investigation, he can and should be charged with misusing his office

SOURCE https://www.justice.gov/jmd/misuse-position-and-government-resources

MISUSE OF POSITION AND GOVERNMENT RESOURCES

Misuse of Position | Use of Official Title | Personal Use of Government Property | Use of Non-Public Information | Use of Official Time | Disclosing Procurement Information | Letters of Recommendation on Official Stationery

An employee may not use his official position, including information learned by virtue of his position, for his personal benefit or for the benefit of others.

MISUSE OF POSITION An employee may not use his public office for his own private gain or for that of persons or organizations with which he is associated personally. An employee's position or title should not be used to coerce; to endorse any product, service or enterprise; or to give the appearance of governmental sanction. An employee may use his official title and stationery only in response to a request for a reference or recommendation for someone he has dealt with in Federal employment or someone he is recommending for Federal employment.

5 C.F.R. § 2635.702 (see Subpart G - Misuse of Position; Use of Public Office for Private Gain)

USE OF OFFICIAL TITLE Generally, an employee engaging in teaching, speaking or writing in his personal capacity may not use his official title or position to identify himself in connection with the activity or to promote any book, seminar, course, program, etc. The two exceptions to this rule are as follows:

1. An employee may allow the use of his title if it is included as part of several other biographical details and the title is given no more prominence than other information; and

2. An employee may allow the use of his title in connection with an article published in a scientific or professional journal provided there is an appropriate disclaimer.

5 C.F.R. § 2635.807(b) (see Subpart H - Outside Activities; Teaching, Speaking and Writing)

An employee engaging in fundraising in his personal capacity is also prohibited from using his official title, position or authority. In addition, he cannot solicit funds or other support from a subordinate or from any person that has business with his component.

5 C.F.R. § 2635.808(c) (see Subpart H - Outside Activities; Fundraising activities)

PERSONAL USE OF GOVERNMENT PROPERTY An employee should recognize her responsibility to protect and conserve government property and resources, and to make an honest effort to use official time and government property only for official business. 5 C.F.R. § 2635.704 through .705 Use of Government property, and Use of official time. An employee may not use the official time of another employee for anything other than official business. The use of any government property, including computers and the Internet, for any partisan political activities is always prohibited.

Department of Justice employees are generally authorized to make minimal personal use of most office equipment and library facilities where the cost to the Government is negligible and on an employee's own time. 28 C.F.R. § 45.4. This is the Department's de minimis use policy, and would permit an employee to send a short, personal electronic message to another individual. However, personal messages sent to large groups of people and messages sent to disseminate information on non-Governmental activities, such as charitable events and causes, commercial activities such as personal businesses, and religious observances, are prohibited.

If an employee of the Department of Justice has questions about the Department's rules covering the limitations on personal use of government equipment and resources, or questions about whether planned personal use of office equipment is permitted, she should consult with her supervisor, or her ethics official.

USE OF NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION An employee may not engage in a financial transaction using nonpublic information nor allow the use of such information to further his private interests or those of another. Nonpublic information is information an employee gains on the job which has not been made available to the general public and is not authorized to be made available upon request.

5 C.F.R. § 2635.703 (see Subpart G - Misuse of Position; Use of Non-public Information)

USE OF OFFICIAL TIME An employee shall use official time in an honest effort to perform official duties. Generally, personal activities should not be conducted during duty hours.

5 C.F.R. § 2635.705 (see Subpart G - Misuse of Position; Use of official time)

DISCLOSING PROCUREMENT INFORMATION An employee is prohibited from disclosing contractor bid or proposal information or source selection information to any person other than one authorized to receive such information. 48 C.F.R. § 3.104-4-5

LETTERS OF RECOMMENDATION ON OFFICIAL STATIONERY An employee may sign a letter of recommendation using his official title and office letterhead in response to a request for an employment recommendation or character reference for someone provided it is based on his personal knowledge of the ability or character of the person. In addition, the individual must be someone with whom the employee has dealt with in the course of his Federal employment or someone he is recommending for Federal employment.

5 C.F.R. § 2635.702(b) (see Subpart G - Misuse of Position; Use of public office for private gain)
