"This is RICO 101"

[RandySF]

The Trump camp’s witch-hunt talking points are now dominating the news—but the media battle may be the wrong way to beat Mueller.”

Said a former FBI official: “This investigation is classic Mueller: he is doing a classic, organized crime case. This is RICO 101, working your way up and sideways. You pop a few guys for gambling, and no one is going to do a million years for gambling, but you’re gonna get their scratch pads, then you move on to their associates. You flip one guy who you arrest with no fanfare. It’s exactly what Mueller has been doing his whole goddamn life. It’s just that this time the boss of the family happens to be the leader of the free world. Mueller doesn’t care if he gets Trump. He doesn’t care if he doesn’t get Trump. He has no political agenda. He is digging through the layers and bringing back the truth, and the truth is going to be whatever it is going to be.”

1. I would think that in this case he ought to care about getting drumph.

2. He will if he finds a crime

I don’t want another Kenneth Starr. Mueller should only go where the evidence takes him.

3. Ken Starr found no crimes

because the Clintons didn't commit any. But the Repukes kept him going until he could find something. All he had was the eventual bullshit sex thing.
There were no calls from the GOP to "wrap it up".

We already know Trump committed crimes. Just a matter of enough to indict.

4. I think there will be indictments...just don't know who.

[edhopper]

6. Yeah

McDougal and Hubbel on things unrelated to the Clintons or anything he was investigating.

5. Mafia in the White House. An organized crime syndicate, underpinned

by Russian money. RICO 101 plus treason.

7. Kicked and recommended.

Thanks for the thread Randy

9. Agree. This is how the investigation should be run. If the mob can somehow figure out how to close

it down, at least there will be records of it and the mobsters (US and worldwide.)

8. That's all Americans ask for: the truth
