    What I love about you, ff, is your incredible ability to be fair and unbiased with absolutely no hint whatsoever of prejudice.

    Barr needs to do what's right, whether it benefits Putin or not.
    Barr’s idea of what’s right is what’s most helpful to his criminal boss, as we have seen most recently with the whistle-blower complaint that he spiked. It very nearly did not see the light of day.

    As you say, we must patiently watch what happens. I suggest you keep a look out for big Vlad smirks and gales of laughter.

    That happens, and it's stupid to cut off our nose to spite our face in that regard.

    That it might benefit a foreign government is no reason to ignore the criminal activity of our own.

    If Barr succeeds in muddying the waters of the Mueller investigation, Putin wins big time again. Where do your loyalties lie?

    It's not rare at all for that to happen in "copping a plea", when it looks like you might not win a bigger issue. Sometimes, however, that "bigger issue" gets new factors (new evidence comes to light, exculpatory evidence was suppressed, etc) and the 'need' to plead guilty evaporates.

    How bout we watch how this unfolds?

    This will rumble on for while until Putin gets what he wants. The US has gone full on banana republic.
    You are amusing, ff.

    It happens.

    Post #106, in reply to NirrinRadd, you asserted that it, this impeachment process, was entirely political.
    Yes, it's not civil and it's not criminal. It's entirely political. It is a process initiated by politicians against a politician (in the case of POTUS) judged by politicians, using rules created by politicians, for political reasons, with political considerations directing the path.

    Entirely political.

    You think cleaning up the corruption in our intelligence services somehow serves Putin's interests more than a criminal conspiracy to run a duly elected president out of office?

    Or you plead guilty because you've been framed, and you and your family are threatened with financial ruin if you don't cooperate. You need to pay attention, Jimmy, because that's exactly what happened, and Attorney Powell has the evidence to prove it. But you don't have to take my word for it. Follow the links I helpfully provided in previous posts and look at the facts for yourself.

    Aren't you paying attention? He only pleaded guilty because he was lied to, manipulated with fabricated evidence, and denied access to exculpatory evidence. That's why we're currently deep in the process of his guilty plea being overturned, but I think Judge Sullivan is giving Powell all the time she needs to fully expose the Obama administration's corruption before making his final ruling. And you can be sure that Barr and Durham are paying close attention to that case.
