Maria Butina Pleads Guilty to Role in a Russian Effort to Influence Conservatives

LOL!

Yeah,that’s how it works. What about her testimony and cooperation?

 

This thread is amusing.

 

Which also shows the pitiful effort the Russians did. The Russians were well aware we'd take this hook, line and sinker. They were aware they could continue to damage POTUS Trump and America. Putin's playing 4D Chess and we're playing checkers. Russia probably has thousands of Butina's at its disposal, and we have to decide if we're going to be wise to this and stop chasing collusion or not.

 

Oh that doesn't make her guilty of espionage. That is merely the standard operating procedure in investigations of this nature and scope.

Her actions make her guilty - you know the ones she admitted to in her guilty plea.

 

You ain't no Sherlock . Cohen spilled and is still going to serve time.

 

Unless they are Republican fish. And no the number of mistakes in the media is insignificant compared to the number of Trump lies. I think it is now somewhere north of five thousand since elected. Heck just the lies he has told about paying off his two strumpets exceed the total number of NY Times mistakes.

 

mmm... confession under torture, works like a charm... good to see justice at work in the good ol USA, the land of the free now you are probably riding your high horse to post in the next thread accusing other countries of heinous crimes
America the land of hypocrisy

 

So, how was this poor college girl who worked for Alexander Torshin “tortured”? Water boarding? Forced to listen to Rush Limbaugh? Justin Bieber in an endless loop?

 

Torture? Get real. She wasn't tortured but feel free to lap up russian bullshit.

And yes, as it happens, the US is showing the world that the rule of law can work, if somewhat loudly and messily, in the case of Trump and his mob.

 

Well said. It’s shocking to see all of these pretend “conservatives” smooching peoples’ buttocks who wish to do harm to our nation and our institutions.

 

Putin's spies and plants are EVERYWHERE!

The lynch mob gonna burn that orange warlock, chanting "Her time! HER TIME!!"

 

WW III is HOT.

 

they sure as hell try to be. Its called international espionage according to the fiction writers.

When did trump get a sex change?

 

Emphasis on FICTION.

Read again.

 

Oh, Christ.

Yes. It’s all McCarthyism. You sound like a college freshman who’s just read his first history book, and can’t put things into context.

 

You can call me Anti.

Yes. Yes it is. You sound like one who hasn't.

Lock her up and promise her she's going to be there fore a long time... she'll tell them exactly what they want to hear.

Certainly I have no interest in learning about your corrupt rule of law, you openly admit she's nothing but bait for bigger fish then uphold this as the standard for others....you'll justify ANY corrupt behaviour as moral and ethical if it gets you what you want.

 

I think that Putin cut her loose. She may be able to flush out some of Trump's compadres and Putin may be disgusted with Trump.
After all, when she is released after a 6-month jail term, she will be deported to Russia and be ok. If she did not have tacit approval
to plead guilty, she can forget Russia.

 

I see you've been watching just about every procedural crime show on tv.

It does seem you have no interest in learning, if your nonsensical assertion that prosecutorial SOP in criminal investigation is corrupt, immoral and unethical. Literally tens of thousands of case law precedents AROUND THE FRIGGIN WORLD, would suggest you are merely shovelling bullshit or demonstrating a shocking lack of knowledge and understanding to have such a definitive negative opinion.

 

not from you Jonsa... you are too flexible with legal matters... bend them to suit

 

It’s interesting that she was represented by counsel. Was he part of the eeevil conspiracy?

 

Seems you mistake the variance between your unqualified opinion of legality with actual standard legal operating procedure to be a function of "flexibility" instead of a reluctance to accept actual fact.

Some hard work by a good tailor and that suit of yours might actually fit.

 

oh wow... really she had counsel... I never would have guessed
