From Claude Taylor regarding Russia/Trump investigation:

[Eyeball_Kid]

There are 25 sealed indictments at this time.

These are apparently coming from the Eastern District of Virginia.

They are sealed at this time, and will very likely become unsealed, according to Taylor, when "discovery" phase is complete.

Follow Taylor on twitter.

1. Claude's the new Palmer Report

Get it while it's hot.

2. No, and he doesn't claim to be a journalist.

[Eyeball_Kid]

3. Taylor's been right.

[DanTex]

4. About what?

[MelissaB]

6. Grand Juries.

You really didn't know that?

[DanTex]

7. No, I didn't. And I still don't know what you mean. Can you elaborate, or post a link?

13. Thanks, haven't been following his tweets closely.

My assumption was it was just another person on twitter saying random things, but based on this there may be something to Claude Taylor.

[bathroommonkey76]

14. Follow Taylor and Mensch on Twitter.

There is a strong chance those two are the Woodward & Bernstein for this Russia story.

15. Also, this person on Twitter has been connected politically for decades,

working on three political campaigns and being employed at the Clinton White House. He was the Director of Volunteers there, overseeing 3000 volunteers around he world and a small paid staff in DC. So he had the chance to make some knowledgeable connections.

11. Here's something he tweeted May8

Before the Comey Firing.

He has been tweeting this for some time. I'm just to lazy to scroll past may 8 to find his tweets.

[DanTex]

12. Thanks, I haven't been following his tweets closely.

19. Don't fall for it

He has also tweeted that Trump is considering resigning and stuff like this:

Breathless "chatter" is his specialty.

[DanTex]

20. Thanks for that also, which confirms my former view of Claude Taylor as unreliable.

[pnwmom]

22. Why? In his tweets, he distinguishes between rumors (chatter)

and things trusted sources are telling him are true. This was chatter, nothing more.

[TNLib]

23. I found it

Looks like he started tweeting about Grand Juries Apr 28

I take these things as twitter rumors but he does seem to be somewhat in the know

21. Here is a video from CNN with Ed Markey

5. I also trivialize things I know little about.

I also trivialize things I know little about... it allows us the pretense of cleverness that may not otherwise be warranted.

[BeyondGeography]

8. That sounds almost wise

[DefenseLawyer]

9. Sorry, but is someone that appears not to know what he's talking about

The "discovery phase" is the exchange of evidence between the parties after a case has commenced. If there are indictments that are sealed, which is often the case in an ongoing investigation, there is obviously no discovery being exchanged between the government and the defendants at that point. It's certainly possible that he just doesn't understand the terminology he's using, but presumably any credible source he has at Justice would not make such an error.

[pnwmom]

16. I haven't seen a post of Taylors that makes that claim. nt

[DefenseLawyer]

17. It's in the OP

"They are sealed at this time, and will very likely become unsealed, according to Taylor, when "discovery" phase is complete."

[pnwmom]

18. That's a paraphrase. Something might have been lost in the translation.
