How did I know you would post this obvious lie being spread. If you watch the entire interview you clearly see he used "animals" to describe ms13 and not immigrants. Jesus, your ability to spread propaganda and fake news is second to none. Is there one honest bone in your body? You make this forum intolerable to say the least.
To assemble this portrait of Mueller’s FBI team, POLITICO scoured court records, news accounts, press releases and conducted more than two dozen interviews with defense lawyers and witnesses as well as with current and former FBI agents.
The agents who form the core of Mueller’s investigative team – who work mostly from a southwest Washington office complex whose only distinguishing feature may be the network TV camera regularly posted near the entrance – have a wide range of skills, with some specializing in financial frauds, others in counterintelligence or corruption, and still others adept at investigating computer hacking and other forms of cybercrime.
Mueller’s FBI crew appears to be a combination of agents who were already working aspects of the investigation before the former FBI director took over a year ago, either because of their expertise or their location, and a set of volunteers who jumped aboard or were invited to join as the special counsel staffed up.
“The agents come two ways,” said Jeff Cramer, a former federal prosecutor in Chicago, now with Berkeley Research Group. “One is geographic. But, as you’re constructing your perfect investigative team, if you have your druthers and there’s agents you’ve worked with in the past, wherever they are in the country, on a case like this you do reach out and say, ‘Would you like to be involved in this?’”
Those who said yes include Omer Meisel, a former Securities and Exchange Commission investigator who cut his teeth as a young FBI recruit probing the collapse of Enron with Mueller deputy Andrew Weissmann nearly two decades ago.
“He’s one of Andrew’s favorite agents,” said a lawyer who’s worked with both men. Another attorney described Meisel as “one of the smartest, most street savvy, hardworking FBI agents I ever encountered.”
Other agents working on the Trump-Russia probe include Robert Gibbs, who’s worked Chinese espionage cases; Sherine Ebadi, who pursued a multi-million dollar fraud at the U.S.’s biggest corporate jet maker; Jennifer Edwards, an accountant who handled internet crimes against children before joining the special counsel’s team; Jason Alberts, a public-corruption specialist who has handled high-profile cases involving the New York Police Department and the United Nations; and Brock Domin, a novice FBI agent with technology know-how, Russian language skills and experience on the ground in Moscow.
ICE arrested a dreamer, revoked his DACA status, placed him in detention, and attempted to deport him, claiming he was a gang member. A federal judge just ruled that ICE was lying—brazenly, intentionally, repeatedly, and illegally.
Think of the past few months of President Trump’s Korea policy as a drama, unfolding in multiple acts.
Act I: Trump impulsively agrees to meet North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un. Perhaps unaware that the North Koreans have sought such a summit meeting for decades, Trump boasts that he has extracted a major concession.
Act II: Trump gradually comes to appreciate that he has been duped. To prove that he’s a winner, not a fool, he begins to oversell the summit, promising that the denuclearization of North Korea is at hand.
Act III: The North Koreans issue a public statement refuting Trump’s boasts. No, they will not denuclearize. And oh, by the way, it’s Trump who must pay tribute to them, not the other way around: If he wants his summit, he should cancel joint U.S.–South Korean exercises.
We’re in Act IV right now—and Act V has yet to be written.
As of midday on May 16, the Trump administration was reacting to the embarrassment of Act III by denying that anything untoward has happened. Throughout his career, Trump has coped with failure by brazenly misrepresenting failure as success.
"Here is the full context of the President of the United States using vile dehumanizing language against a population he has relentlessly targeted with lies, bigotry, othering, and displacement."
This is an odd case for former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani to have made in defense of President Trump and his 2016 campaign.
“When I ran against them,” Giuliani said, presumably referring to the Clintons, “they were looking for dirt on me every day. I mean, that’s what you do. It’s — maybe you shouldn’t, but you do it. Nothing illegal about that.”
“And even if it comes from a Russian, or a German, or an American, it doesn’t matter,” he continued. “And they never used it, is the main thing. They never used it. They rejected it. If there was collusion with the Russians, they would have used it.”
Emphasis added.
Sure, it’s certainly questionable to suggest as Giuliani does that if a foreign adversary offers incriminating, stolen information about an American candidate that should be treated as equivalent to research done by campaign staffers running background checks. But Giuliani’s attempt to assert the campaign’s innocence based on not having used intelligence from Russia is another thing entirely.
When will the biggest fraud here correct all his postings of fake bullshit and propaganda?
