I didn't find this article long, but it certainly is a heavy read. Like Tamara, I keep going back and forth, reading and rereading. There is so much that I don't understand about the process. Should have gone to law school like Dad wanted me to!!! lols

My concern was it was really heavy on documents and citations but I think it’s important that if someone is going to “report” they should provide the underlying documents. The connecting of the 2017 Depo transcript except dots - it seemed logical to me because I didn’t see any MSM opining on facts in the public domain. If there’s ever a question please feel free to ask. If I don’t know I won’t BS you. If I do I’ll likely give you a plethora of documents...

Thank you so much. You've proven we can rely on you for facts, that's for sure. I had a rough day yesterday, so I'm going to try to read through the docs. The challenge is calling me..

Thank you! This is quite a lot to absorb! I keep going back to reread. I’m glad you were able to explain the grand jury details as the punditry is all over the map on this. I have always thought Weisselberg would remain loyal to Trump but his daughter in law might be a problem fir him now. Their MO is to always throw people under the bus to save themselves. It will be telling to see how this plays out. It was Cohen who said Trump would throw his kids under the bus to avoid jail time. We will see.

I tried my best to remain factual -while understanding that some of my readers/followers might not fully understand the mechanisms of a GJ or SGJ...and I thought it might be helpful/instructive, especially with the citations of the NY Criminal Rules of Procedure. I get it that people want “Weisselberg” to flip but I agree with you I think that might be setting some up for major disappointment... which is why I reached back to the 2017 NY-AGO’s deposition excerpts because the transcripts provided a long list of likely witnesses. I like having documents to support my assertion(s) plus those transcript excepts kind of pulled the curtain back to kind of get into both Weisselberg & McConney’s heads.

I do think that prosecutors could made a second run at Weisselberg leveraging perjury in his 2017 Depo. New York laws enumerate 3 degrees of perjury but the SOL is five years. Meaning August-October 2022 👀👀

my guess is Trump Sr if push comes to shove he’ll shank Weisselberg, McConney, Rhona, Jr & Eric. I always thought it was odd that only JarVanka moved to FL but that’s more speculation on my end. I agree “we will see”

I agree with you. If one thing remains consistent, Trump has loyalty to no one and he will throw anyone under the bus to save himself. We’ve seen time and again, people demonstrate unyielding loyalty to him only to get burned...it’s like repeatedly putting your hand on a hot stove. Each person in the inner circle always believes they are the exception. Look at Giuliani...and so many others. Weisselberg may not bend now, but eventually it could bite him in the end. Thug Michael Cohen learned this lesson too. Trump won’t be loyal to his kids either and would turn on them in a heartbeat...he’s a sociopath who lacks any emotional connection. People want a movie-type ending to this saga and justice moves slow. We want justice to protect the innocent and remain true to the law. It’s frustrating but better to build a solid case on facts rather than throwing caution to the wind. It will be ongoing for years.

Agree 💯 on Habermann ... always rubbed me the wrong way. It pleases my cold little heart that Corey got thrown under a bus and talks about poo poo. Maybe I’ll start posting that video under anything Kristi noem posts from here on out. *Snort-laugh*

And the next thing I know he was on cnn as a political or something guy. this is the first thing I saw when I googled about it https://www.politicususa.com/2019/09/13/andrew-mccabe-indict.html

I adore you but politicsususa is a terrible news outlet run by this dude https://twitter.com/PoliticusJason so it’s not exactly reliable but that’s my unsolicited opinion
