This is how you get from Whitewater to Monica, right?

p much

OR this is someone in Mueller's office telegraphing to Manafort 'we have your balls please contact our office regarding a Plea Agreement at your earliest convenience'

I think that already happened.

I just assume Mueller's office is leak proof and anything that comes out of it is leaked for tactical reasons.

Like, why is there no middle ground between ineffectual fecklessness and scorched earth evil?

Bernie would've *is shot*

The spokesman for President Donald Trump's legal team has resigned within two months of being on the job, according to people familiar with the matter.

Mark Corallo, the spokesman, had grown frustrated with the operation and the warring factions and lawyers, these people said. Corallo was also concerned if he was being told the truth about various matters, one of these people said

According to CNN according to the Washington Post, Trump supposedly has his lawyers looking into the constitutionality of pardoning himself (may have already been posted, I don't know). That would be, uh, something. Leaving Nixon in the dust here.

WaPo: Trump team seeks to control, block Mueller’s Russia investigation

Trump has asked his advisers about his power to pardon aides, family members and even himself in connection with the probe, according to one of those people. A second person said Trump’s lawyers have been discussing the president’s pardoning powers among themselves.

He has told aides he was especially disturbed after learning Mueller would be able to access several years of his tax returns.

Worth noting, Mueller started his Enron prosecution by charging the executives' spouses. Guy's stone cold...

The writers of House of Cards must be banging their heads on the desk at this point.

Trump pardoning himself would be basically full-dictator. If that happened, all bets are off.

I don't want to be around Mad people...

President Trump’s lawyers are actively building a case against what they believe to be special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s conflicts of interest.

oh no conflicts of interest oh no

The only thing left now is to get some solid Seinfeld into the mix: the guy Trump is considering for new Communications Director (taking over from Spicer) works at the Export-Import Bank.

Part of the reason for the imbalance is likely that liberals tend to live in more homogeneous places and don't even associate with conservatives.

Politically homogenous, perhaps, but not culturally or racially or ethnically, so fuck you, WaPo.

Memo to Trump: Anyone you pardon can be compelled to testify without any grant of immunity, and that testimony could undo you.

News: Marc Kasowitz out as @POTUS attorney - legal team now Cobb, Sekulow & Dowd. Sounds like a law firm but is not. Corrallo has resigned.

Trump really has no poker face, it's quite adorable

it's like House of Cards if there was a gas leak in the White House

hey, you and me, we're jerking motions

btw I'm still amazed that the guy who "surprises people" with his vast knowledge of health care still thinks it only costs $12 a year and that you can keep that plan your whole life

Going back to this hilarity, a Jez commenter has pointed out he probably got this from a Gerber Life insurance commercial that airs on cable. So he gets all of his batshit ideas not just from cable TV, but from cable TV *COMMERCIALS*

Like, he is mixing up health and life insurance. This man is negotiating your health insurance laws and he cant even fathom the difference.

Part of the reason for the imbalance is likely that Trump is subhuman garbage and anyone who voted for him is a major dufus at best.

I mean it's not cause someone voted for a Republican for Prez. I don't remember this being a thing w/Dubya supporters or any other past Presidents.

I've not bothered to read that WaPo story but does it also explore how Trump voters are open-minded and LOVE to spend time with people with views that differ from theirs?

Both sides are horribly intolerant, the racist savages who would destroy America because a black man dared president in it and the liberals who don't want to hang out with them.

Lawyers advising on turning a sinking ship into a lifetime incumbency yet?

Obvious answer would be to shorten the lifetime.
Been wondering when the assassination attempts begin. & would the secret services take a bullet for lardo.

Also is there anything in that other WaPo story that doesn't sound like admissions of guilt from Trump?

see fire truck pics

Can I pardon myself? Asking for a friend.

the first step to healing is forgiving yourself iirc

Isn't first step to forgiving yourself acknowledging the wrongdoing?

the second step to healing is never acknowledging your culpability iirc

He's gotten himself into a conundrum.

it's hard to be a russian money launderer in new york city, sure, but maybe he wants to go back home, just a little?

Waiting for this Springsteen demo to leak.

I heard that the Russian source that was supposed to have paid him $17 million had far less than that on their books in total for the time period. So was that a forgiven debt to that amount?

Mr. Manafort is disappointed that the Times refused to be a buddy and do him a solid.

Oh my surprise

Trump is probably looking into minting that trillion dollar coin, sticking it in his own bank account, and then pardoning himself

Every night he searches for the legendary secret safe in the White House basement
