3 dozen criminal charges.. several guilty pleas..."Nothing illegal"
why the largest man-made economic catastrophe since the Depression resulted in the jailing of a single investment banker — one who happened to be several rungs from the corporate suite at a second-tier financial institution.

I'm always game for Greenwald looking like an asshole.

I mean Trump blatantly comitted obstruction of justice.. which is 1 part of Muellers probe... (that is the topic here right? confused why Epstein got brougth up)There's pretty much zero chance Mueller's report won't indicate Trump broke the law. I personally doubt he's directly connected to anything Russia related but that's not all Mueller is investigating.
The Supreme Court unanimously overturned former Virginia governor Robert F. McDonnell’s public-corruption conviction Monday and imposed higher standards for federal prosecutors who charge public officials with wrongdoing.McDonnell’s promising political career was derailed by his entanglement with a businessman who showered the governor and his family with luxury gifts and financial benefits. McDonnell and his wife, Maureen, were indicted and convicted after he left office in January 2014.The McDonnell case stemmed from more than $175,000 in loans and gifts — a Rolex watch, vacations, partial payments for a daughter’s wedding reception among them — that the governor and his family received from Richmond businessman Jonnie R. Williams Sr. Williams, then the chief executive of Star Scientific, wanted state universities to perform important clinical tests on a dietary supplement the company had developed.

They.. have... arrested... people.. got.. guilty.. pleas..Never fucking mind.
Did you miss the part where I haven't said a fucking word about anyone going to jail? Or whether it "matters" if he did anything illegal? And no I didn't miss the part where you brought up a bunch of shit I said fuck-all about.Trump blatantly broke the law... repeatedly admitted to it on Twitter and national TV..They will find that he did illegal shit. That's literally all I've said, quit deflecting.
They have top men working on it.

“Judge” Jeanine Pirro does not plan to repay nearly $600,000 in debts accrued during her ill-fated run for the U.S. Senate, her still-active campaign committee told federal regulators this week.An attorney for Pirro, who now hosts a Fox News program popular with President Donald Trump, told the Federal Election Commission that the hundreds of thousands of dollars she still owes to a host of campaign vendors “are not collectible” due to a six-year statute of limitations for the collection of contractual debts under New York State law.
Pirro racked up those hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt during a failed bid for the Republican nomination to challenge then-Sen. Hillary Clinton in 2006. Though Pirro dropped out of the race after only a few months, her campaign committee remains active to this day. The committee stopped filing legally required reports with the FEC in 2012, despite repeated reminders from the commission.

The measles outbreak in the Pacific Northwest now has 70 confirmed cases, The Oregonian reported Saturday, with 65 of those cases coming from Clark County, Oregon, where the outbreak began on Jan. 1. Four more instances of the disease, which had been all-but eradicated in the U.S., have been reported in nearby Multnomah County, and one has been reported in Seattle, Washington. Out of Clark County’s 65 cases, The Oregonian notes, 57 of the patients had not been vaccinated against the highly contagious disease. The outbreak has become a flashpoint in the ever-growing controversy over vaccinations: despite overwhelming evidence that the MMR vaccine is safe, some parents are refusing to vaccinate their children over fears that the immunization could led to autism or diseases like encephalitis.CONTAGIOUS
Why does anyone give a shit.Let them die. It's their choice
Reddit banned its largest community focused on the fringe conspiracy theory Qanon on Wednesday, claiming the subreddit was cut off “due to repeated violations of the terms of our content policy.”The community, called /r/GreatAwakening, had more than 71,000 subscribers making over 10,000 comments on average per day before it was banned. A backup subreddit, /r/the_greatawakening, was also banned, along with 17 other Qanon focused communities, including r/BiblicalQ and r/Quincels.The subreddit, which is a term for the common interest groups that make up Reddit, has been host to a stream of violent threats based on the conspiracy theory — despite repeated calls from the community’s moderators urging them to stop, particularly in recent weeks. Qanon devotees falsely believe that President Donald Trump is secretly waging a war with special counsel Robert Mueller to take down a global pedophile ring led by Hollywood celebrities and the Democratic Party, most notably Hillary Clinton.

I remember the first time I chose to vaccinate myself for polio.... when I was 2 months old.

Has anyone ever noticed that Jennifer Rubin pronounces things weird? I just heard her say "rooned" (ruined) and "heenous" (heinous).

As US diplomats prepare for the second summit between President Trump and Kim Jong-un next week in Hanoi, senior Democrats in the House and Senate, joined by a few Republicans, have been sounding alarm bells, warning that South Korean President Moon Jae-in is moving too fast in reconciling with North Korea by seeking a premature lifting of sanctions on the nuclear-armed state. They are also expressing strong reservations about the US and South Korean negotiations with Kim and warning Trump not to budge on his “maximum pressure” sanctions campaign until Kim has completely dismantled North Korea’s nuclear-weapons and missile program. Kim temporarily halted the program nearly 500 days ago by suspending all testing of his “nuclear force.”The congressional actions have been fueled by a steady stream of pessimistic and often misleading studies from Washington think tanks, eagerly embraced by US media hostile to the peace process, alleging that Kim is “playing” Trump and that both Moon and Trump may stop short of demanding North Korea’s immediate denuclearization by embracing a more incremental approach.

“I’m not shocked that while thousands of volunteers braved the heat and cold to knock on doors until their fingers bled in a desperate effort to stop Donald Trump, his Royal Majesty King Bernie Sanders would only deign to leave his plush D.C. office or his brand new second home on the lake if he was flown around on a cushy private jet like a billionaire master of the universe,” said Zac Petkanas, who was the director of rapid response for the Clinton campaign.
