Mensch: indictments are either being prepared, or presently exist, sealed, against the AG Sessions

Jeff Sessions: Attorney General, Suspect

There are rumors within the intelligence community that indictments are either being prepared, or presently exist, sealed, against the Attorney General, Jeff Sessions. One source reports that Sessions may be arrested, or a case against him announced, later today, Friday March 12th. Although I cannot find another source at this late hour to agree, the RUMINT is interesting enough that I am passing it on to readers as an update to the below post, originally published on the day Sessions was confirmed as Attorney General.

Just leaving this here for reference later in the day.

1. "There are rumors........." - first words of her statement.

[Norbert9]

4. Agreed

I will be dancing in the street tonight if this is true. But clearly she is in the business of peddling rumors.

[lamp_shade]

14. You'll notice that she always says whether her statement is rumor or verified fact.

[Norbert9]

15. Can you please point to an example of a "verified fact" claim?

[lamp_shade]

19. Go to her twitter feed and start scrolling.

[Norbert9]

20. I have. It's all disjointed, highlighted screenshots without real sources or links.

Very frustrating and is not what I consider a reliable source.

[sharedvalues]

22. FISA warrants. Grand juries

Both now confirmed by BBC, McClatchy, Senators (Markey, Warner) and Comey himself.


That doesn't mean she's right on everything -- she predicted more would go down yesterday - but she clearly has some good sources.

BTW her sources are non-American. Probably British intelligence from her time there as a MP. But British and US intelligence work together.

2. hoping

?w=300&h=225

[reflection]

9. I just spewed oatmeal

Man, it feels good to laugh. Doesn't happen much these days.

[Bobbie Jo]

44. Bwaaaaaaahaha!

You got me.

[Kentonio]

3. Not going to hold my breath

But it certainly would put the cat amongst the pigeons.

[Norbert9]

6. But everyone called me Russian for not drinking her Kool aid

https://www.democraticunderground.com/10029050433

[OnDoutside]

25. Russian ? Well you do seem to be in a hurry to discredit her !

[Kentonio]

26. She was a conservative MP and a particularly bad one

If she's proven right eventually then fair enough, but I'm not hitching my horse to that wagon until there's some proof she actually knows what she's talking about.

[HopeAgain]

5. If this turns out to be not true...

Can we stop hearing about everything this Mensch person tweets?I

[Norbert9]

7. Here, here.

[Sanity Claws]

8. March 12?

Is this an old tweet or did she mean May 12?

[Kber]

10. Maybe a typo?

March 12 was a Sunday this year.

That said, not holding my breath either.

[LaydeeBug]

33. not a typo. This is DEZA all day long. OP "is just posting for reference"

because they are #TeamDeza and trying to use that Sessions won't be arrested today as an impetus to discredit "take it with a grain of salt" Louise Mensch.

This shit is Deza all day

[Norbert9]

36. You are thick and FOS

Clear as day and I quote:

"Update: Fri 12 May:"

[LaydeeBug]

37. as you are DEZA and FOS..."There are rumors..."

It *starts* with that. LITERALLY.

Deza all day

[Norbert9]

38. My point exactly. She is in the business of peddling rumors. Thank you for proving my point!!!

[Norbert9]

11. It clearly says May 12 at the top of the article

[LaydeeBug]

34. It clearly says "3 MONTHS AGO" at the top of the article. Deza all day.

[Norbert9]

48. For the visually impaired....

[pnwest]

49. I'm so old......what is Deza?

[OKNancy]

12. Weasel words to make herself relevant

What people like Mensch do is say things like : rumor has it, some speculate, I heard some say who know.....
Many times what is speculated is just a guess based on some common information.
Then nine times out of ten it turns out not to be true.
But that ONE time it is, then people go ape shit about what an asset this person is.

Reading past things she has said and done makes me really skeptical.
My opinion is that she is a nut. THis opinion is shared by Malcolm Nance who called her batshit crazy.

[Norbert9]

13. +1000

[sharedvalues]

23. She throws a lot against the wall, true

But she reported the FISA warrants in Oct 2016 in a long unambiguous story . That was later confirmed in Jan, Feb by BBC, McClatchy, WaPo.

Forget her daily tweets. Her big remaining claim is that the president and GOP colluded with Russian hackers to exchange voter data. Oh, and that there are big money laundering crimes that will come out.

Let's see what happens about those two statements.

[Norbert9]

24. Oh, and that the next President will be Orrin Hatch

Kind of a big claim

[sharedvalues]

28. Right. That is claim Russians laundered money into GOP

Ryan would go down because she says he took Russian money into his campaign.

We'll see. That's a huge claim obviously.

[NCTraveler]

16. Rumors. First sentence. Nt

[Norbert9]

18. Yep. That's my point

[NCTraveler]

29. What is your point?

They heard rumors and reported it as such?

They made that point in their first sentence.

[underthematrix]

17. The article has a glaring ERROR

Friday, March 12th? I like this blog but that needs to be corrected ASAP

[Itchinjim]

21. Until it happens, it's Fitzmas.

Not going to get excited.

[BeyondGeography]

27. Think I'll wait until Claude Taylor has independent confirmation

[HopeAgain]

30. Wasn't there a guy named Palmer or something

That was the source de jour a couple weeks ago? Who will be the next one when Taylor and Mensch prove unreliable.

Seems like they only have to guess right once or twice to be deemed "reliable"

As they say, even a broken clock is right twice a day.

[BeyondGeography]

31. Palmer had HRC winning all the recounts

It was very exciting.

[Norbert9]

40. Thank you

[LaydeeBug]

32. This is from 3 months ago, just before he recused himself to avoid this. "DEZA" all day

Guys, we have to start letting this sink. Seriously. Deza all day long

[roamer65]

35. Looks like an old article.

What we do know at this point is there are grand juries and we are waiting...

[burnbaby]

39. do you mean May 12? nt

[LaydeeBug]

41. It's IMPORTANT to know the OP is trying to disrupt. Have a look.

and then consider this article OP is posting is three months old with an update that STARTS with "There are rumors" OP intends to use this as an impetus to undermine their efforts, and here's proof of that leaning:

https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=9050433

Deza all fucking day

[Norbert9]

42. Yeah I've already linked that thread in this one. Thanks though

Come back when we have President Orrin Hatch. You are straight Deza, as you put it

[LaydeeBug]

43. You're more than welcome...come back when you aren't *DEZA* all day.

[Norbert9]

45. At least we have your MO. Nothing salient. Just end all posts with Russian slang

[LaydeeBug]

46. As you have yours. Nothing substantive, just attempts to spread DEZA over and over.

[Norbert9]

47. Sorry if you consider me posting a Mench thread from today as nothing substantive on the topic
