Wait..why is he preparing a "report?" That is NOT the job of a Special Council. This is not like the 9/11 commission and prosecutors are not supposed to be writing a report - especially not for public or congressional consumption.

This sounds more & more like a partisan witch hunt where if they can't come up with real proof of any wrong doing, then they (i.e. the Democrats + Mueller) will issue some phony "report" which is full of innuendo and designed to give Democrats something to hang their hats on if/when they start impeachment hearings should they win the HoR this year.
It's a witch hunt that has led to witches being found. I guess it sucks if you are fond of witches.
You don't actually believe that in any rational context, do you?
Bankrupting and ruining Flynn over something the investigating agents said wasn't a lie was some grade A witch hunting. It's sad how DC thinks this is justice. Scary actually.
The witch hunt has led to whiches being found.

I wonder what crimes DC (or anyone) would be indicted of if 17 lawyers had a microscope up his rear for over a year. I'm honestly shocked there hasn't been more indictments political posturing to support a soft coup / impeachment overthrowing the duly elected president.

Manafort and Gates are scum. Should their crimes have been investigated by a different group? Yep.
That doesn't make them any less guilty.
As for Flynn, no one made him lie to the FBI. I do feel bad for him but he could have avoided it by simply telling the truth from the start.

LOL. Nope. And these are charges, like Mueller levied against Enron only to have them dismissed and overturned as they're a misappropriation of justice. I guess you haven't Googled the latest in Flynn's case to understand how he got railroaded by rogue agents and a judge that were texting each other about getting Trump. The agents are fired and the judge recused himself a day after discovery. But DC knows there a witch in Salem ...

Yep, especially in his business dealings or being asked a detailed account of something from a year prior and slapping ya with perjury charges if you're off in recollection. Or like Flynn and have a dishonest FBI boss file charges, contrary to the opinion of the investigator.

Maybe you think it's necessary, but I don't think you need to know someone personally to have an idea about their character. If you're going to apply that standard, UWS traffic is going to decrease dramatically.

As for Flynn, I said I think it's a shame what's happened to him, but no one made him lie, and the lies weren't things he just misremembered. They were related to important recent conversations he had with Russian officials.

As for the feds, I have dealt with them twice on business related investigations. They're tough, they ask a lot of questions, and demand a ton of info. But, we had strong processes and control, we kept the proper documentation, we followed the rules and regs, we kept the right electronic records and communications, and we didn't lie to them. It was painful and took a lot of time, but in the end, we were cleared, just like we knew we would be. So no, I'm not worried about them. That's what criminals do.

You do realize the fbi rank and file that were involved in the Flynn deal have said publicly several times that he did not mis-represent or lie to thier knowledge. Manafort has business dealings in Russia which the experts I have read said the only thing he may be guilty of is not disclosing some stuff on some forms..... the rest of the charges are bogus.

But again, you have a prior admin that was spying on US citizens illegally, used the DOJ and FBI in illegal manners and a special prosecutor that has wasted a crap ton of taxpayer dollars based on a fake dossier that was paid for by thunder thighs to the russians thru Fusion GPS.....but yea, great so far

The crap that Obummer and his admin and thunder thighs pulled is coming out, wait for the IG report to start the landslide.

Apparently Flynn, who pleaded guilty, doesn't agree with those guys.

As for Manafort, that's silly. Falsifying tax returns is not failing to disclose some stuff. Neither is money laundering or bank fraud. Failing to disclose is a sign that someone is doing something illegal.

No, but if I were under investigation, I'd be worried about all the BS they'd try to stir up. I don't want to question your comprehension here, but above we were discussing an investigation underway and now you're pivoting to paranoia about said investigation coming out of the blue. That's a different context.

Bet you wouldn't have had the balls to tell them you disagree with them politically before they started an investigation...

Are you worried that you're going to be under a fed investigation? I think you'd have to be paranoid to be worried about that. Or guilty of something.
Is this the internet tough guy version of "if you don't have anything to worry about, you won't mind if a search your car"?
It's a pivot away from the issue of no witches being found in his witch hunt.

It's not a pivot, I'm not the one that brought up me being worried about feds. I'm not worried about being investigated, and I'm not worried about the feds making things up.

Flynn pled guilty. You saying that he was set up is silly. Same goes with Manafort and Gates. Gates will plead guilty before the weekend gets here. And Manafort has a host of charges, and his defense is that Mueller doesn't have jurisdiction, not that he is innocent.

Stop acting like these are choir boys.

I'm not sure what you think that means. I'm pretty sure we wouldn't have a political discussion.

Have you Googled Flynn yet? Clearly not. The rest are BS charges too. And yes, being put under a microscope is an invitation to BS charges. You are pivoting off this point.

I wonder what crimes DC (or anyone) would be indicted of if 17 lawyers had a microscope up his rear for over a year. I'm honestly shocked there hasn't been more indictments political posturing to support a soft coup / impeachment overthrowing the duly elected president.
You don't need to wonder. I can tell you that the answer would be absolutely nothing.
WADR, that's either insincere, or naive. We all commit felonies just about every day. Living in Kalifornia, you probably commit more.
What felonies am I committing on a regular basis. Just curious.

His best argument is probably failure to file 1099s, which I would think a large portion of us on here may have failed to do on at least one occasion.

I don't see that it is a felony.

I like this one from the same section of the code:

Stamp peels off the happy birthday card grandma sent you last year? Congratulations, you've committed a felony.
