Woman Accusing Missouri Governor of Taking a Racy Picture of Her In Order to Blackmail Her Now Says She Isn't Sure He Took A Picture of Her and May Have Dreamed The Episode
Attorneys defending Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens against a felony invasion-of-privacy charge say his mistress-accuser isn't sure what happened The woman, a hairdresser, claimed Greitens took a photo of her partially in the nude so he could blackmail her into silence about their affair She was bound and blindfolded at the time Now she testifies that she can't recall seeing him with a camera-phone, and doesn't know if her belief that he had the phone was the result of a dream Police arrested the governor on the basis of a recorded conversation she had with her husband, where she said she saw a camera flash through the blindfold She claims Greitens told her he had erased the picture, but the governor's defense team believes it never existed Now they're demanding prosecutors turn over any other evidence that might clear GreitensBy the way, check out this Federalist piece on the prosecutor pressing this case -- she's a real Social Justice Warrior #Woke peach.
Her office put out a statement on this claim that the "victim" now says she may have dreamed being photographed:
Gardner has developed a negative reputation among police officers in St. Louis. She's looked the other way on cases into which they’ve poured time and energy; and she's gone after police officers with more aggressiveness than she’s gone after killers and thieves. That might explain why the new police chief in St. Louis, John Hayden, was so quick to point out to the press that the police had no involvement in the Greitens case. Not only did they not investigate, but the chief took issue with Gardner’s suggestion that the police had been asked to and didn’t: "It makes me frustrated because it’s as if she’s saying I failed to do something I’m supposed to do here, and that’s not the case at all. To date, nobody has tried to report this to the police department."
A spokeswoman for the St. Louis Circuit Attorney’s office says the latest court filing by attorneys for Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens is another attack on the “credibility of the victim.” Greitens faces trial in May on a felony invasion of privacy charge for allegedly taking a partially nude photo of a woman with whom he was having an affair in 2015 while she was blindfolded and bound. In a court filing Sunday, Greitens' attorneys say the woman testified she never saw Greitens with a camera or phone on the day he is accused of taking the photo. The court filing says the woman also testified during her Friday deposition that she doesn’t know if her belief that he had a phone was the result of a dream. Circuit attorney spokeswoman Susan Ryan says in a statement that the defense "cherry picked bits and pieces" of the woman’s nine-hour deposition.Um, if she did in fact say during the deposition that she can't be sure Greitens did the very thing he's being prosecuted for, and in fact may have only "dreamed" it,, that's not just a "cherry" that you pick from the bowl. That is the bowl.

There must be some cool German word of "sharing a dream", especially an erotic one. "einen Traum teilen" is what Google gives me, but that doesn't sound dirty enough, by half, to satisfy my lust for some guttural grunting word. I have tried for the last 30 years to share a dream ... with a certain blond, so I can understand how that nice lady may have padded her realities.

It used to be that law and order jobs pretty much attracted the right wing. You didn't get mangy hippies doing prosecutor work because it was "working with the pigs" or "working for the man" and a betrayal.
But they figured out that if they got into these positions, they could work the system and "balance injustices" and all the rest of that crap.
Its not that the guys on the right were any better, thy were just bad in ways that the leftists tended to balance out in defense positions. Now there's no balance.

I saw the link to Soros money for her election. I hadn't realized until now why Soros would care to fund all those obscure DA races around the country.
A private, ideologically-driven prosecutorial army to bludgeon all the Right People into silence or prison.
And if it comes down to violence in the streets, guess which side the Soros DAs will coddle and which will be prosecuted?

Assuming the rumor of the FBI raid is accurate I can only think of two reasons why they'd do it:
1) They have something or strongly suspect something big and are following through in good faith. They found crime or malfeasance and want to prosecute it.
2) Meuller knows he has nothing, can't get anything done except exposing more and more wrongdoing on his own side, and is trying to push Trump into firing him.
I don't really see any third option here. Raiding someone's lawyer on a fishing expedition is unbelievably stupid and incompetent and even the FBI isn't that retarded are they??

What Mueller fails to understand is Trump won't fire
him, he will destroy him. Pretty much the inverse Insurance Policy.
With Mueller will go most of the senior leadership of the FBI. A new
broom sweeps clean. Brennan best find a new country that doesn't have an
extradition agreement with the US.

I am thoroughly confused by the article.
Greitens acknowledged in January that he had an extramarital affair in 2015 as he was preparing to run for governor. That came as St. Louis television station KMOV aired a report in which the woman describes a March 21, 2015, encounter with Greitens during a conversation that her husband secretly recorded.
In that recorded conversation, the woman says Greitens invited her into the basement of his St. Louis home, where he tied her hands to some exercise rings, blindfolded her and partially undid her clothing. She said she saw a flash through the blindfold and Greitens said to her, 'You're never going to mention my name, otherwise there will be pictures of me everywhere.' The woman said Greitens told her later in the day that he had erased the photo.
What the hell is going on here? The accuser's husband made a secret recording of the accuser recounting details of the encounter in which the photo and 'threat' occurred?
Is she not a willing witness?
Or are they saying there's a secret recording of the encounter itself? In which case I don't understand why they don't have the 'threat' on tape.

But then I find only Trump's lawyer got raided, and the FBI is at war with our President, and is covering up for the Crime Syndicate that run DC and the country.
Covering up FOR is maybe the wrong phrasing, (parts of) the FBI are the enforcers for the globalist mob/cartel. #2weeks

Yay!
Arizona Supreme Court rules, unanimously, that illegal alien DACA students in AZ are not entitled to taxpayer-subsidized in-state tuition rates.
As an AZ taxpayer and believer in the rule of law, I commend the justices for this obviously correct decision.

Very OT:
Advice and thoughts, please, oh wise members of the horde.
So, I've been in a long distance relationship with a guy who is... somewhat unreliable, and lately, things have gotten worse. We got into an argument over his inability to follow through a few days ago, and then, BAM! I got really sick. Really, really sick. I almost went to the hospital. Virus that causes very bad joint pain.
In any case, we resolved the earlier issue and he seemed to be very concerned about me, since I live alone and don't have anyone to do things like pick up medications and such. In fact, he offered more than once yesterday to come over to see me and help me out for the next few days. I really didn't answer right away, but eventually said yes because he really wanted to assure himself I was OK. The plan, as I understood it, was that he'd go to work, take part in an early conference call and then head out.
Well, that never happened, and instead, he wanted to show up after work, which meant he'd get here after 10pm, which would defeat the purpose of helping me out with trips to the store, since I needed the medication before that. So I said don't come. Because...''too little too late.' I pointed out to him that when I ask him for small favors-- which I rarely do-- he blows them off, and now, when he wanted to make a grand romantic gesture, he didn't follow through either. He feels bad, and is very good with saying the right thing and apologizing, but he has proven to me that I'm not a priority and that he's not completely reliable.
Is this a situation that can be resolved? I suspect that only way that it will be workable will be if I make no demands on him and simply accept that I am at the bottom of this list of top 50 priorities and will always be in that place. In other words, an 70/30 situation where he benefits 70% of the time, and my 30% means "going out to eat to nice places that he would go to any ways."

Agreed. But let's vidie forward. Trump calms the NORKs and is heralded
as a great president. Trump bends Xi on trade and is viewed as a
powerful president. Trump rewrites NAFTA and is viewed as a savior for
middle America. What exactly do you think Mueller can do to sidetrack
those coming attractions? Finally, DOJ begins the assault on the Obama
Clan - DOJ, FBI, CIA, NSA... This is a desperation move by Mueller and
the Dems.

Stormy Daniels said he touched me in the nono place and the DOJ/FBI actually break the attorney client privilege by raiding Trump's attorney's law office and take all the docs, which will now be leaked from here til November
It would be mighty nice if every lefty lawyer in the world wold stand up and say....too much, Mueller, time to go.

Its too early to have any kind of reaction to the raid at all.
Typically its very bad news when the feds raid a lawyer, but at the same time: FBI has a pretty poor track record, and its clear Meuller is just desperate to find something to hurt Trump with.
So it could be anything, and we can only wait and see. But we're fast approaching a crisis in the system where the executive department is fighting against the executive and everything is set up to prevent him from responding or dealing with it.

Do you really want to continue in a relationship with someone that's only 30% in the game with you? That doesn't sound like a good deal, to me.

I'd like to hear something about this from someone other than the NYT but at first blush it sounds like a classic problem with the special counsel statute. Ken Starr wasn't brought on to go after Bubba for doing interns in the White House.
According to the Times, this was not done by Mueller, he made a recommendation to the NY federal prosecutor and that prosecutor is going after Cohen. There are dueling prosecutions going after each other right now, Mueller vs Horowitz/Huber, and things seem to be heating up as we are getting near the IG report.
As with most things related to this investigation, it's probably worth waiting to get the facts before lighting your hair on fire.

In principle I'm fine with the justice department going after a sitting president for crimes he or his staff have committed. They should have gone after Obama, for instance. Many times. I'm fine with raiding a lawyer's office, I mean "Better Call Saul" isn't entirely fiction.
What I'm not fine with is that this seems to be based not on any significant criminal action or plausible illegality, but on technicalities they're determined to turn into something big enough to topple a sitting president for simply because they hate him.

According to the Times, this was not done by Mueller, he made a recommendation to the NY federal prosecutor and that prosecutor is going after Cohen. There are dueling prosecutions going after each other right now, Mueller vs Horowitz/Huber, and things seem to be heating up as we are getting near the IG report.

If campaign funds were used, it might be illegal. A minor illegality, but illegal just the same.
Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at April 09, 2018 04:44 PM (39g3+)
I highly, highly doubt Trump would have used campaign funds for something like that. He's not an idiot.
However, if campaign funds were used for anything of the sort then that is not a minor illegality. That would be major stuff. And it would be so retarded as to be beyond belief.

314 286 Trump should direct Sessions to open an investigation on McCabe's wife for receiving Clinton money illegally through McAuliffe. That might get Mueller's attention. He has a wife.

Is this a situation that can be resolved? I suspect that only way that it will be workable will be if I make no demands on him and simply accept that I am at the bottom of this list of top 50 priorities and will always be in that place. In other words, an 70/30 situation where he benefits 70% of the time, and my 30% means "going out to eat to nice places that he would go to any ways."
Posted by: shibumi at April 09, 2018 04:33 PM (9oJYp)
I'm sorry you were so sick shibumi, and glad you are doing better. It cannot be resolved unless you capitulate to his behavior, which you already have. I don't mean to be harsh, but there is no sign he values you or the relationship.
A person like him will continue to take advantage of others, and only change for a short period of time to keep you on the hook, and then he will revert back. I've seen it time and time again. Please honor yourself and your intuition and break ties with him. Unless you are willing to settle for that 30 percent. Which will be even less and less in the future. And your self-esteem will go with it.

Sorry, Shibumi. If there is one thing I've learned about relationships is never expecting to change your partner. The 'flaws' they had on day 1 will be there on year 20; as it is with you.

And if I hear another talking head talk about how the FBI rank and file folks are just the greatest thing to happen since sliced bread I'm gonna gouge my eyes out. No, the rank file folks have been there for years/decades, they could have blown the whistle on the corruption years ago if they were such fucking boy scouts. Going back to pre-clinton days, all the right people were put in all the right places to turn their head to all the wrong doing.

more good news.
The Congressional Budget Office forecast that the new tax law will generate an average of 0.7 percent growth over the decade and create 1.1 million jobs.
However, larger budget deficits would crowd out private investment in later years, dampening economic growth.
As a result the CBO estimated the cumulative deficit over the next decade will be $1.6 trillion larger than previously projected. By 2028 the national debt would total 96 percent of GDP

If Mueller didn't arrest Cohen on the spot then this is pretty blatantly a violation of attorney client confidentiality. But Jack's advice to actually wait before opining is probably the right one.
As if it matters, though. A Republican governor is on trial because some crazy broad testified to a weird sex dream? No offense, ladies, but knowing chicks like this exist is a huge argument in favor of Islamic law governing female testimony.

Then Trump runs the real risk of losing to the Democrat/Republican Establishment play via the FBI/DOJ to remove his ass first.
=========
They got nothing to remove him on. Unless he obstructs justice by blocking an investigation. So he's just gotta suck it up and take it.
PS. They were going to drop this on him if he fired Mueller regardless. They were holding back and now they figured he's going to wait them out. So they are going to try and turn of the heat. I figure trump's paid off more than a couple of women and that'll come out. The worse case scenario for the dems is that it'll cost trump the woman's vote.
I think they misunderestimate the mood of the Country.

Just this morning, Loretta Lynch came out of hiding
after a year and basically said Comey lied under oath. Nobody here is
freaking out about that because it doesn't hit the front page of a media
source we all hate.
The IG/Huber are going after Mueller's guys and quite possibly even
Mueller himself at some point. Wouldn't surprise me if Mueller wanted to
fight back.

He already said he didn't know about the payoff, so he didn't do the deed, and if he had provided cash for it, it would have been from his private petty cash, not campaign money.
If Cohen pays her, Cohen adds a line item to Trump's next bill for 'stamps.'
Trump pays the bill. He knows nothing about the payoff, he's just paying his lawyer.

Wray, via Mueller, has just publicly shivved the President. Raiding his lawyer over a hooker?
-----------------------
Wray cannot obstruct Mueller's investigation without being indicted for obstruction of justice. I'm pretty sure he knew it was going down and I'm pretty sure Honey Badger knew too.
As I've said, if Trump wants to squeeze Mueller's balls he will demand the resignations of every FBI Senior Leader tomorrow. That will remove all of Mueller's 'friends' leaving Mueller in the unenviable position of having to say 'I'm sorry guys about your career'. This is not how DC movers and shakers do business.

He's happy because he gets the benefit of having you in his life without actually putting in the work.
Posted by: The Deplorable Mr. Trumpkin
Yes, you are 100% right.

I don't mean to be harsh, but there is no sign he values you or the relationship.
A person like him will continue to take advantage of others, and
only change for a short period of time to keep you on the hook, and then
he will revert back. I've seen it time and time again. Please honor
yourself and your intuition and break ties with him. Unless you are
willing to settle for that 30 percent. Which will be even less and less
in the future. And your self-esteem will go with it.

We knew it was bad before this but what we are seeing is a whole different dimension.
And remember, Wray was nominated by Trump to replace Comey.
So unless you get someone from outside of government and the law profession it seems they will just get sucked down into the swamp.
Fuck it, move Puitt to the DOJ. and shuffle someone else thats been approved to fill his spot.
Because Trump literally can only trust a handful of people at this point to have his back.

Comey testified under oath that he was concerned about the "matter" thing and expressed his concern to Lynch. Lynch said this morning it never happened. One of them is lying and while we don't have the testimony that Lynch gave behind closed doors its likely she said the same thing then, under oath.
But the bigger question is why is she talking at all and why now? She's been silent for a year, why is she going public right as the IG report is being prepped for delivery?

Very OT:
Advice and thoughts, please, oh wise members of the horde.
So, I've been in a long distance relationship with a guy who is... somewhat unreliable, and lately, things have gotten worse. We got into an argument over his inability to follow through a few days ago, and then, BAM! I got really sick. Really, really sick. I almost went to the hospital. Virus that causes very bad joint pain.
In any case, we resolved the earlier issue and he seemed to be very concerned about me, since I live alone and don't have anyone to do things like pick up medications and such. In fact, he offered more than once yesterday to come over to see me and help me out for the next few days. I really didn't answer right away, but eventually said yes because he really wanted to assure himself I was OK. The plan, as I understood it, was that he'd go to work, take part in an early conference call and then head out.
Well, that never happened, and instead, he wanted to show up after work, which meant he'd get here after 10pm, which would defeat the purpose of helping me out with trips to the store, since I needed the medication before that. So I said don't come. Because...''too little too late.' I pointed out to him that when I ask him for small favors-- which I rarely do-- he blows them off, and now, when he wanted to make a grand romantic gesture, he didn't follow through either. He feels bad, and is very good with saying the right thing and apologizing, but he has proven to me that I'm not a priority and that he's not completely reliable.
Is this a situation that can be resolved? I suspect that only way that it will be workable will be if I make no demands on him and simply accept that I am at the bottom of this list of top 50 priorities and will always be in that place. In other words, an 70/30 situation where he benefits 70% of the time, and my 30% means "going out to eat to nice places that he would go to any ways."

well, you should provide a few more details to help the horde. was he coming over after work because he had to stay at work? was he aware that you needed the meds by a certain time? did you need the meds at a particular time or was it a matter of the pharmacy closing at a certain time? maybe he thought he could pick up your meds at a different pharmacy and bring them over later.
your comment does not really describe a guy who is selfish perhaps so much as unaware or not fully tuned in. would seem he cares for you and your well being.
were he some selfish buffoon he would simply not bother with you until you were feeling well enough.
while being in a relationship that makes him happy is a benefit for anyone, nothing you described makes it seem like he is gaining more than you or is not concerned by you.
why would some guy you are in a long distance thing with want to commute to you after work to check in on you and help you with stuff if he did not care? what is in it for him beyond checking on you?
nothing like commuting long distance to check in on someone who is not feeling well.

In fact, he offered more than once yesterday to come over to see me and help me out for the next few days. I really didn't answer right away, but eventually said yes because he really wanted to assure himself I was OK. The plan, as I understood it, was that he'd go to work, take part in an early conference call and then head out.
Well, that never happened, and instead, he wanted to show up after work, which meant he'd get here after 10pm, which would defeat the purpose of helping me out with trips to the store, since I needed the medication before that. So I said don't come. Because...''too little too late.' I pointed out to him that when I ask him for small favors-- which I rarely do-- he blows them off, and now, when he wanted to make a grand romantic gesture, he didn't follow through either. He feels bad, and is very good with saying the right thing and apologizing, but he has proven to me that I'm not a priority and that he's not completely reliable.
Is this a situation that can be resolved? I suspect that only way that it will be workable will be if I make no demands on him and simply accept that I am at the bottom of this list of top 50 priorities and will always be in that place. In other words, an 70/30 situation where he benefits 70% of the time, and my 30% means "going out to eat to nice places that he would go to any ways."

well, you should provide a few more details to help the horde. was he coming over after work because he had to stay at work? was he aware that you needed the meds by a certain time? did you need the meds at a particular time or was it a matter of the pharmacy closing at a certain time? maybe he thought he could pick up your meds at a different pharmacy and bring them over later.
your comment does not really describe a guy who is selfish perhaps so much as unaware or not fully tuned in. would seem he cares for you and your well being.
were he some selfish buffoon he would simply not bother with you until you were feeling well enough.
while being in a relationship that makes him happy is a benefit for anyone, nothing you described makes it seem like he is gaining more than you or is not concerned by you.
why would some guy you are in a long distance thing with want to commute to you after work to check in on you and help you with stuff if he did not care? what is in it for him beyond checking on you?
nothing like commuting long distance to check in on someone who is not feeling well.

Yes, because that is his way of keeping you on the
hook. He knows exactly what he is doing. It is a head game. He failed
you badly, so he throws out a small compliment to keep you around.
Don't take him at his word that he is the happiest he has been. He has
already proven himself to be a liar.
He may have never planned to come over and help you, but knew that
wasn't acceptable, so he dragged it out the way he did. I'm so sorry to
be so cut and dried on this, but sugar coating it wouldn't be fair to
you.

Actually, that makes a lot of sense and I don't need any sugar coating. Thank you be being frank.
LOL. Silly me. I really thought that a conservative guy would be different. Was I wrong. It is sad though, because we did have a lot of fun together, are very much alike in certain ways and have tons in common. Ah well.

My 2017 Ford F-150 does that engine stop/start at stoplights unless I over-ride or change the operating mode settings. I'm getting used to it but I can't help but worry what it does to the wear and tear on the starter, battery and other components.
Posted by: Archer at April 09, 2018 04:58 PM (gbWkA)
I get tired of having to turn the stop/start off every time I start the car (and massively annoyed) so I just drive in sport mode, now, which turns it off automatically.

well, on the one hand you both have my complete sympathy. hard to imagine any feature more detestable. on the other, heh.

Our courts are broken. The rule of law does not exist. Rules don't either.
On my personal case, my ex is 3 years late on discovery and the judge is allowing her to give all discovery directly to the judge. My ex represents herself now.. So I don't even get a chance to authenticate anything or see his supposedly evidence, the judge made a ruling that it can all go to him. So that's breaking due process, rules of evidence, ex parte hearing, the local rules of the courts and Lord knows what else.
Posted by: Monk at April 09, 2018 05:02 PM (tcQdP)
Yeah, your judge doesn't know why discovery exists.
Ah well. The advantage to our lifestyle is: When democracy becomes tyranny, we -still- have a vote!
Progression of boxes, baby. Do what you're comfortable with.

You've been getting good advice, so let me briefly add: of you feel like you have to give two compliments for every one he gives, tell him that. And say you're good enough to deserve a better, equal relationship. But honestly there is only so much you can help someone who doesn't want to be helped.

Some answers, hopefully:
1. The plan he presented was to attend an early meeting and then leave, to get here by late afternoon.
2. I needed meds picked up since I was running out and needed to take them before the evening. That was the main purpose of him coming over, since I didn't want to drive or be exposed to God knows what in the outside world while I'm recovering.
3. Did he have to stay at work? I don't know. He has a flexible sort of position, and could have said, "I have to take half a day" and leave. I also told him to bring his laptop with him and work here if needed.
4. Here's the thing: I was really sick. This virus gives you the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. For two days I was miserable. Yesterday, I started feeling better; he offered to come and stay to help me out, to make sure I was OK. He offered several times and said he wanted to do it. It only made sense if he left work early, since I did need help with things and he "wanted to take care of me." Well, he changed his today plans at the last minute, which meant he couldn't do the things I really needed done. So.. there was no point in him coming over.
5. He did know I needed medication during the day. If he showed up at 10 or 11pm, well, I would have to go get it myself. In the end, he could have known that as soon as he said "after work" I would have said "no." Which means he saved himself a trip, yet looked really caring and gallant.
5. Is he concerned or manipulating me? I don't know any more. He knows I find him unreliable and has proven I'm not a priority. I told him this a few days ago. And then.. this happens. He makes a great offer, and can't follow up the way it was presented. Because "work."
Note to the men of the horde: Don't make grand, romantic gestures that you can't follow up on. Women don't think highly of you when you do that.

I was basing my post on her comment that the relationship is 70/30 the majority of time. Also, she has talked about him before, iirc, and he was questionable then too.
