Mueller Prosecutors Misled DOJ About Stone Sentence Recommendation

Disgruntled former Mueller prosecutors misled DOJ and bullied the new U.S. attorney in D.C. into recommending up to 9 years in prison for Roger STone.

If integrity is lying to the court the same way that happened in the FISA case.................

You are already a proven liar. Quote some rag saying something "may" have happened.

If my grandmother had wheels she "may" have been a wagon

There's nothing to subvert here. Their sentencing recommendation has been overruled by their superiors. Barr already assigned another prosecutor to the case. They can't stop that from happening but they can refuse to be a part of it, which they have.

I seriously doubt that judge Amy Berman Jackson is buying any of it.

Certainly, I just meant in a broad sense.

Once Stone is officially sentenced, the scumbag POTUS will pardon his fellow buddy criminal.

So persecuted. Your linked hit piece contains demonstrable lies, this among them-

A full investigative report released by Mueller last year revealed that the Mueller investigation found zero evidence for any of the claims of collusion between Trump and the Russians. According to a separate report on serial abuses committed by the Department of Justice (DOJ) during its investigation of Trump, the DOJ inspector general found that the government knew long before Mueller was even appointed that there was no evidence of any collusion.

The Mueller investigation found insufficient evidence for prosecution, not zero evidence. Stone's obstruction was part of that.

I strongly suspect the assertion that the prosecutors misinformed higher ups as to their sentencing recommendation, particularly when attributed to anonymous sources via Fox News. And the bit about Credico not feeling threatened has no bearing on the threats being made in the first place. It's cute, though, as is Barr interceding on his behalf because of his relationship to the President. You know that's corrupt, right?

'There need to be mass protests': Authoritarianism experts say time is running out for Americans to stop Trump

"The Republican Party is betraying democracy," a Yale professor and expert on facism told Insider, adding that "someone has got to push back."
www.businessinsider.com www.businessinsider.com

If Americans are concerned that President Donald Trump and Republicans are moving the US toward becoming a one-party, authoritarian state, they are running out of time to stop them, experts warned.

That is what you stand for. Just saying shit comes around and all that. Wait for it.

So somehow an article i linked that you disagree with turns me into a liar? If it's actually factually wrong, it would turn the person or persons writing it into a liar. Not that I agree with your assessment.

The bit in Taj's linked Federalist hit piece about how Shea, a political appointee, was bullied by his subordinates is a really nice touch, I'll admit. How do you bully your boss, anyway? In Trumplandia, all things seem possible, huh?

They must have threatened to use harsh language against him!

When you lie and someone calls you a liar because of your lying, that is not a personal attack.

Um, actually, it really is. You are attacking them personally instead of the argument they are making. Them being a liar is not a argument against what they said, but who said it.
Calling what they said a lie would be a counter to their argument, but saying that they are a liar does tell us if the specific thing they said in this instance is a lie or not.
