“I don’t know if the president was peed on by prostitutes in 2013” - James Comey

You think Mueller and Comey talked about how to work the interview as a means to provoke Trump?

EVA BRAUN BLOWJOBS posted:It's not being simulcast in all time zones Very, very little of this is going to actually be new. It's mostly going to be confirmation of all of the news media reports from the FBI director Donald Trump fired because of the Russia investigation into his actions. I'm phrasing it that way because you sort of get lost in how loving insane that would be 5/10/15 years ago.

He had solid rationale about the Clinton email statement. Still don’t like the decision, but he had his reasons.

EVA BRAUN BLOWJOBS posted:Extraordinary legal hurdles had to be crossed for the warrant to be issued. The ACLU agrees, and sees it as a sign that law is working. It's difficult to make a different case. I'm on their mailing list because I donated, but this is pretty much the last straw for me. I originally joined up in '04 because they were a relatively apolitical organization that lobbied and litigated for privacy and individual civil rights, but since 2017 it's become increasingly apparent that the national organization cares more about what is bad for Trump and the right wing than good for civil rights. They've also been increasingly throwing their weight behind other cultural issues that are only tangential to civil rights. Getting Trump out of office would almost certainly be tactically good for civil rights, but deciding to be selective about their principles rather than endorsing an alternative candidate isn't the way they should be going about it.

Dead Reckoning posted:I don't buy it. If it was anyone but Trump, let's say Obama's lawyer got his office tossed, do you really think the ACLU's position would be, "well, we can't say for sure that this public figure *hasn't* been conspiring with his lawyer to do crimes, and we trust the government when it says that there was exceptional scrutiny and oversight when this decision was made."? The ACLU illustrates it pretty clearly and it is pretty cut and dry legal precedent. You can talk to your lawyer about bribes you made, you can't have your lawyer deliver them. And the AG is going after stuff that isn't even privileged. They are doing this by the book knowing the slightest impropriety will cast doubt on the entire investigation.

did you forget that then ACLU is the reason the “unite the right” rally happened in Charlottesville. Also considering the circumstances and the fact that Cohen doesn’t actually perform any legal work for anyone (including trump) this would have the exact same response from the ACLU regardless of president.

I...wha....what?! If Trump/Cohen did what the FBI claims, or Cohen was helping push fraud and commit crimes, he lost any right to client/attorney privilege. What grounds are you even making this on? Every single authority on Legal matters agrees on this. And considering it was WELL KNOWN before Trump ever became president that both Trump and Cohen were knee deep in less than legal things, why is this somehow concerning to you? If the government had no grounds, we'll know soon enough, but considering the Government not only claim to have grounds AND demonstrated that to a judge to get him to sign off on the warrant, you're talking out your rear end again. Oh, and what's worse about your claim? Trump knows he's hosed if they look at his files, which is why he is fighting hard to claim the right to be able to censor and hide portions from the prosecutors: https://twitter.com/OrinKerr/status/985695650330230784 But who am I kidding, I'm talking to DR.

And that maybe cops aren't doing their jobs because people are too critical of mass civil rights violations by said cops and the solution to this is less criticism of law enforcement. And that manufacturing terrorism charges about especially idiotic and gullible brown Americans is a good way to keep Americans safe.

Cohen was raided because he’s been running multiple massive money laundering schemes in NY and Chicago and has assisted multiple other wealthy people with payoffs and bullshit NDAs with porn stars. He wasn’t actually providing legal advice to anyone most certainly the president.

The ACLU’s fight for free speech literally allowed a nazi to kill a woman but their lack of desire to jump to the defense of a guy at the top of a criminal enterprise because he is the president’s “lawyer” is a sure sign of their partisan agenda.

Like cohen isn’t someone actually providing trump counsel on anything related to any criminal or civil matters and hasn’t for years. He’s always just been an attack dog to hire people to pursue (and eventually settle) bullshit cases and to assist in money laundering/paying off sexual misconduct.

do you believe every search is some sort of anti-constitutional event that needs the intervention of the ACLU?

The email I got before that was asking me to sign a petition to get Greyhound to stop consenting to searches of its busses. I’m pretty sure the ACLU would be fine with almost all raids conducted in furtherance of investigation of serious fraud, money laundering, etc. that included such thorough oversight throughout the department of justice and the judiciary. This is multiple warrants spanning months of times with mountains of corroborating evidence and multiple levels of independent judicial review.
