Erin Burnett details ‘absurd’ offer from Trump's family to Omarosa

quote:

Special counsel Robert Mueller has given lawyers for ex-Trump campaign chief Paul Manafort "well over 1000 proposed exhibits," or pieces of evidence, which prosecutors want to show jurors at Manafort's next federal criminal trial in Washington, D.C., a court filing revealed Thursday.

That number of exhibits dwarfs the fewer than 400 pieces of evidence Mueller's team of prosecutors introduced at Manafort's ongoing trial in U.S. District Court in Alexandria, Virginia.

Jurors in that case began deliberations Thursday morning. They have yet to reach a verdict on bank fraud and tax crime charges.

Manafort, 69, a longtime Republican consultant, is scheduled to next go on trial Sept. 17 in Washington, where he is accused of money laundering and failing to register as an agent for a foreign government. Charges accusing him of trying to tamper with witnesses were lodged in June, months after the original case was filed.

Both trials are related to the lucrative work Manafort did for a pro-Russia political party in Ukraine, years before he became chairman of Donald Trump's presidential campaign in 2016. Manafort, who was jailed without bond in June after being accused of witness tampering, has pleaded not guilty in both cases.

God, ga toch eens heen met dat getroll, je weet dondersgoed dat je onzin aan het uitkramen bent. Het is niet grappig, gevat of edgy.

Ondertussen heeft het Senaat unaniem een resolutie aangenomen waarin staat dat de pers niet de vijand van het volk is. Je zou zeggen dat het belachelijk is dat dat moet gebeuren, maar hey, direct na de editorialbeweging van vandaag kwam er een bommelding binnen bij de Boston Globe. Het is wachten tot de eerste journalist neergeschoten wordt uit naam van Trump.

Gezien de vier vragen lijkt me de jury niet al te slim.

Zou wel een plot twist zijn als Manafort door een paar #MAGA fans vrij komt.

Het is een vrij complexe zaak dus je kunt je afvragen in hoeverre men het hele verhaal van de buitenlandse geldstromen, lobbyen en andere feiten begrepen heeft.

Washington (CNN)Retired Adm. William McRaven, the man who oversaw the 2011 Navy SEAL raid that killed Osama bin Laden, issued a stunning rebuke of President Donald Trump's decision to revoke the security clearance of former CIA Director John Brennan on Thursday, defending the former spy chief as "one of the finest public servants I have ever known."

In an op-ed published by the Washington Post, McRaven, a former Navy SEAL who led US Joint Special Operations Command from 2011 to 2014, not only called Brennan "a man of unparalleled integrity," but volunteered to have his own security clearance revoked in an act of solidarity.
"Few Americans have done more to protect this country than John. He is a man of unparalleled integrity, whose honesty and character have never been in question, except by those who don't know him," McRaven wrote.

"Therefore, I would consider it an honor if you would revoke my security clearance as well, so I can add my name to the list of men and women who have spoken up against your presidency," he added.

According to two people in attendance, Trump then flippantly replied to the Vietnam vet, “Well, I think you just didn’t like the movie,” before finally moving on.
