Getting in the way of Trump’s vengeance!
“There are three categories of massive problems that this judge identifies in his decision,” Rubin reported. “And one of them is, according to this judge, based on the recordings of the grand jury proceedings. Lindsey Halligan, not once but twice made fundamental misstatements about the law, right? One with respect to a defendant's right to stay silent. And the second, with respect to what kind of evidence the government might ultimately be able to marshal were they able to take this case to trial.”There’s also the matter of the FBI reviewing privileged information it had no authority to review (which I think Rubin is referring to, also). And the mystery of the missing transcript after the no true bill vote, when Halligan went back for a second bite and may have gotten the grand jury to indict what it no billed (or just fooled the foreperson into signing the wrong indictment).
Adding, “A misstatement of law before a grand jury would obviously be grounds for throwing the charges out immediately, right?” the legal analyst later stated, “There are 11 different ways in which Jim Comey’s statutory or constitutional rights may have been infringed by the conduct of the FBI and the Department of Justice, both in the investigation of this case and in its presentation to a grand jury.”
Laughing, she continued, “I really have never seen, and I say this, I mean, it's like every three days, Joe, I say this. I've really never seen anything. — I'm running out of hyperbole.”
Halligan better hope she has a good pension plan, because her days as a lawyer may be limited.
