George Nader, a convicted pedophile that special counsel Mueller used in his Russia investigation, was indicted on Tuesday for allegedly concealing millions of dollars in illegal campaign contributions to then-Dem presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
(((prolly a jooincidence)))
Not so sure about the movie idea.
- A federal court in Virginia in 1991 gave him a six-month sentence on a felony charge of transporting from Germany pornographic videotapes of boys about 13 or 14 years old.
-In 2003, he was convicted in Prague, Czech Republic for sexually abusing ten boys, for which he served one year in prison. In one case, at his room in the Hilton Prague Hotel, Nader requested oral sex from a 14-year-old boy. After he refused, Nader masturbated in front of him and paid him 2,000 koruna (US$86).
- In June 2019, Nader was arrested by federal agents for possession of child pornography and images of bestiality and, for a second time, transportation of child pornography. These charges stemmed from his January 2018 questioning by FBI agents working on behalf of special counsel Robert Mueller, at which time child pornography was incidentally found on one of his three cell phones as agents inspected it pursuant to a warrant
i see the wannabe tranny blowers are really kicking ass on the irrelevant impeachment proceedings today trotting out 4 lawyers that see it their way. trump is a lock for 2020, NO ONE CARES, all ppl see is the dems wasting time on something that the republican senate will squash on arrival
wild. if the person on that couch had campaigned, trump would be begging for venom stakes these days.
i hope that asking a foreign country to interfere with our election is not the norm. if any democrat did this, republicans would rightfully be calling for the democrat to not just be impeached but thrown into prison and i'd be 100% on board with it.
the second i saw that *heavily redacted* transcript where trump asked ukraine to investigate biden, i said that was impeachable. i didn't need to see any quid pro quo, no showing of bribery, nothing else was needed.
when it later came out that he actually held up military aid until a whistleblower exposed his plot, i find it hard to imagine that anyone doesn't think he should be in prison.
if you're right and they all betray our country for personal gain, they should all be in prison.
Two things:
1. All Trump has to say is, “I was worried that a former sitting Vice President was abusing his power and that we needed to work with our Department of Justice and Ukraine to get to the bottom of that. My goal has been to drain the swamp since day one.” If he stuck to that, he basically couldn’t be removed from office.
2. It’s become painfully obvious (Fusion GPS founders book) that the only people colluding with the Russians were Hillary supporters. Although haven’t heard calls for imprisonments yet.
1. actually he could. the jury (or in this case, the senate) doesn't have to take his word for it. every day, juries make credibility determinations. if they didn't, there would be no convictions. no one in america thinks trump gives a fuck about corruption in ukraine. here, there isn't even a "beyond a reasonable doubt" standard. not to mention, trump wouldn't testify anyway.
2. not sure why we're talking about russians. is this a deflection thing?
these are wild af, congrats.
withholding aid delegated by congress to a nato ally because you _think_ the vp who just coincidentally is almost certainly running against you in a year is pretty much legend caliber corruption, and #2 is just weird and delusional and not something someone who can vet and understand information would subscribe to, if we are being honest.
is team retard basically trying to martingale their way through this by doubling down on every delusion they can dream up instead of just admitting they backed a lame pony?
95% of republicans are fine with playing this card as a last resort as long as the scamming wannabe tranny blowers aren't in charge. Just like Trump Jr got suckered into the trump tower meeting with "Russians" on an obvious set up, trump is guaranteed to make a political faux paus that wasn't quite as legally scammy as a world class decade long politician would do.
This call is even worse. IMO
The very good prosecutor must be Viktor Shokin.
State Department advise is he's very corrupt with links to Firtash the oligarch, among others..
I've never been the type to admire folks who become ambassadors, I have a preconceived bias that they're political assholes who have worked the system to get a primo-position, and power.
So I was already on the wrong foot when that woman testified. She turned my preconceived bias on my ass, she was totally screwed for doing a good job!
Bit of trivia, Shokin survived an assassination attempt, bulletproof glass defeated a sniper. :)
Could Rudy be going to prison?... seems likely?
Some added context, Shokin inherited the Burisma investigation from a previous prosecutor I believe in 2012, Hunter got the job in 2014.
Problem remains that it can equally be viewed as the President wanting a foreign beneficiary of our funds to ensure corruption is rooted out, particularly that involving our own government officials; and yes, I see the irony. But there is another view here that many seem to gloss over due to their utter disdain for Trump. The bigger point I was making is that money is routinely used to bribe others into doing what the benefactor wants, including the executive branch to foreign nations, congress to the states, Biden to the Ukraine over particular prosecutors, etc, you get the point. The democrats have been trying to impeach Trump before he even took office. That is not how this is supposed to work -- elections have consequences so we are told. So far they have struck out time and time again. Now they are throwing shit against the wall just waiting to see what, if anything, sticks with the public before pulling the trigger. As I said, there is an election coming up shortly and if he needs to be removed, it should happen the way it was intended.
5 more federal judges have been confirmed since the impeachment charade has started.
But you know, muh Ukrainians.
That argument falls to pieces when you consider the very good prosecutor he's talking about is super corrupt, and he's completely going against the information he's privileged to receive as president.
He's doing the opposite, he's attempting to enable a corrupt prosecutor over advise of his own government.
He sacked an ambassador who was all over these corrupt officials.... seriously.
nice impeachment bs yesterday. good to know the left wing academia hate trump and have nothing to add in terms of evidence.
the dog and pony show continues
it really can't "equally" be viewed that way. i know you're somewhat playing devil's advocate, but one version of events is ridiculous (the one you suggest above) and one isn't.
we don't have to accept any version of events told by trump as true. that's not how this works. gee, other than ukraine, i wonder how many calls trump personally made to other sketchy countries receiving our aid to make sure they publicly announce an investigation into corruption -- not actually investigate -- just announce an investigation.
you see my point.
you may not think this is significant enough to warrant impeachment. we just seriously disagree on that.
Bloke who said he didn't think the president should be impeached was the same guy who pushed Clinton to be impeached.
He kept saying things like "I have no dog in this fight" and even he didn't like Trump. While still giving his peers a reach around. :)
Harvard guy was very excited, somewhat comical.
Harvard diploma says he's qualified.
The investigation precedes Hunters involvement.
Yes the same corrupt prosecutor that had the file and did nothing. That's the reason he was sacked, he did nothing to stop corruption.
I'll agree he got the job because of daddy, but to suggest he was involved in corruption is disingenuous.
The very same prosecutor with clear links to Firtash. You know that outstanding gentleman who's on like $150,000,000 bail in Vienna fighting extradition.
Big misunderstanding I'm sure.
Ask Rudy about Firtash, he has associates on the payroll working for him. :)
Rudy is a warrior, he'll clear it all up, and do some RICO ninja shit too.
Druff, did I miss the post in which you said whether Trump deserved to be impeached?
https://youtu.be/5uzXmNc67H8
part of me is like, hedge firms hire kids with famous bloodlines because its a status thing all the time.
but hunter is _such_ a legendary fuckup that i struggle to believe thats the whole story here.
the problem at bar is that trump (tried but failed to) extort fake kompromat from the ukraine, and chose to use congressional aid as leverage.
thats abjectly criminal and completely depraved, and he did it because he wants to win a 2nd term. there are no national security concerns at bar. this wasnt swamp draining. he is going after the literal fabric of the republic by tearing down career politicians and by extension, huge swathes of the population that are their constituents. thats the whole ballgame, and its one of several reasons why he should be removed from power.
his own intelligence agencies were like 'yeah theres nothing here to work with, its another conspiracy theory and you need to move on' but he cant because he thinks sean hannity and ben garrison 'get it', he cant help himself, plus hes talked SO VERY MUCH SHIT about the strongest intel agencies on earth, who fucking work for him btw, that he cant allow himself to trust them anymore. thats a whole other problem but its super real, and yet another reason why this lunacy needs to end.
so stop polarizing the hunter biden chair seat into a 'well either its totally corrupt and trump was right to extort a nato ally' or 'its all totally above the board and hunter was hired for his charm and talent', because neither of those are true. the issue is trump's literal madness and total inability to rise above his personality disorders, paranoia, and avarice. and the consequences of those faults, his relentless manipulation, abuse, and incompetence, are impeachable; its literally black letter law.

The American public has pretty much accepted that jeffrey Epstein didnt kill himself, nobody cares about trumps phone call with Ukraine now that it's become obvious there are factions of ppl in power eliminating ppl for their own gain. Independent voters are gonna blame the wannabe tranny blowers for wasting time trying to gain power and trump will win in 2020, that's all this means to ppl who arent political freaks
Well, now with Articles of Impeachment coming, and then the Senate trial (can't wait), the Dems have just guaranteed Trump another 4 years. Book it. Max bet.
