McCabe's Plea to Avoid Prosecution? <i>Denied.</i>

McCabe's Plea to Avoid Prosecution? Denied.

I think they do realize that their recent policy of zealously prosecuting the Commoners while permitting the Gentry to merely retire with their full pensions intact was beginning to spur the Commoners into considering a revolution.

I hope they don't think the Commoners will be appeased with one medium-sized fish.

U.S. Attorney Jessie Liu has recommended moving forward with charges against Andrew McCabe, Fox News has learned, as the Justice Department rejects a last-ditch appeal from the former top FBI official.
McCabe -- the former deputy and acting director of the FBI -- appealed the decision of the U.S. attorney for Washington all the way up to Jeffrey Rosen, the deputy attorney general, but the department rejected that request, according to a person familiar with the situation.

McCabe has already previewed his defense: It's the Orange Man Bad defense. He'll claim it wasn't his self-dealing and leaking and lying that spurred this prosecution, but the Bad Orange Man. He claims he was only fired for his (very brave and very principled) "refusal to pledge allegiance to a single man."

They'll all be running this defense -- and it will almost certainly work if they're tried in liberal areas.

I don't believe anyone has ever authorized a change of venue based on the fact of very high partisan bias. So liberal politicos will always be tried in liberal areas, and they'll almost always be acquitted by Susan McDougal-style juries.

And here's a good question: If our leftwing alleged fellow citizens will no longer do their duty as jurors and render verdicts in cases based on the facts rather than on tribal loyalties, do we really have a country any longer?

These are from an inspector general's investigation, not a grand jury's.

The department gets a final say and the investigated employee can appeal the IG's finding internally.*

The reason is the 6th Amendment, all defendants in the US have a right to a trial by jury. In some cases, the Defendant may fear that any jury is going to absolutely hate him, so he has the right to ask for a Judge only to hear the case, a so-called Bench Trial.

182 The thing is, should any of this by some act of God actually go to trial, none of them have to take place in DC.

The crime was not against DC, it was against the USA as a whole, as a nation. They can have the trial anywhere.

"Jury of your peers" was referring to people being tried not by a special panel of nobility and those in power, but by regular folks, it has nothing to do with locals or people in your neighborhood.

The left still depends too much on the unelected super-legislature that we call the Supreme Court. Their plan to pack the court--and even generously select about 50% GOP picks--revealed that the Supreme Court is the super-legislature that the Anti-federalists warned of and the Federalists said it should never become ("because it was the smallest of all branches", because really, in the Federalist Papers they pretty much said it consisted of the Justices and their aides.)

It's still an oligarchy in planning.

We live in a loose collection of city states and real states. CA, IL, NY, MA, MD and soon VA are merely territories controlled by Citiy States. Whatever the City Don's want, they get. These citiy states have satrapies; NY runs CT, NJ and DE. Then there are actual states that still function as states.

213 We're basically at war. Like, real war.

Demented Leftist Army on one side.

Angry Redneck Horde on the other.

But this war does not have modern battlefield tactics. Nor does it even have Vietnam, or Korean War tactics, Nor even WWII blitzkrieg tactic or WWI trench warfare tactics.

You'd have to go back to approximately the Napoleonic era to get an accurate parallel to how this current war is being engaged.

There are flanks and squadrons and cavalry. Generals on a hill with a telescope directing the infantry to attack weak points. Spies behind enemy lines sending signals on the enemy's plans. Mercenaries climbing over the ramparts and setting fire to the weapons magazine.

All metaphorically, at least. But within the metaphorical plane, the current War for Western Civilization feels like a good old-fashioned late-1700s/early-1800s military campaign.

Everyone misuses fascism these days, its a source of deep annoyance to me. The word is being repurposed to mean "mean people" or "tyranny" when it has a very specific definition. Its like using "communist" to define every tyrant, its destroying the history and meaning of the word. I even see it here.

282 212 203 The problem with optimism is that if you're wrong, then its misery.
That's why most people get more pessimistic as they age. Not only have they learned that most of the time things don't work out and there is no justice, but that if you're wrong as a pessimist, its all upside.
Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at September 12, 2019 02:32 PM (KZzsI)

But true optimism means seeing the good in things even when it doesn't go your way. And a pessimist won't even notice when something goes right.

Hope and faith are far better for mind, soul and body than pessimism and misery.

That's why the media agents of Satan want everyone miserable and non-Believing. It is dreadful for physical and mental health and helps the misery virus spread while keeping everyone dependent on an omniscient State.

on the other hand, using "commie" as a generic term for centralized government used for the benefit of those in power (while telling lies about "for the chillens") ... is useful, and generally correct.

Coming up with 23 different genders for what is basically just variations on the theme just distracts from the main message. There is no "true communism", so being pedantic about the word just detracts from stronger memes. imo

The word that everyone SHOULD be using is "totalitarianism," because that is the sort of catch-all word to describe either left-wing or right-wing tyrannical repressive governments, without getting bogged down in the highly specific accurate definitions of "Fascism" and "Communism."

Similarly, the word that everyone SHOULD be using is "bigotry," instead of "racism" or "transphobia" or "white supremacy" and countless other inaccurate, misused, wrongheaded terms.

Alas, but no one ever uses "totalitarianism" and "bigotry." I'd prevent countless bickering arguments if people did.

448 The word that everyone SHOULD be using is
"totalitarianism," because that is the sort of catch-all word to
describe either left-wing or right-wing tyrannical repressive
governments, without getting bogged down in the highly specific accurate
definitions of "Fascism" and "Communism."

Similarly, the word that everyone SHOULD be using is "bigotry,"
instead of "racism" or "transphobia" or "white supremacy" and countless
other inaccurate, misused, wrongheaded terms.

Alas, but no one ever uses "totalitarianism" and "bigotry." I'd prevent countless bickering arguments if people did.

"Sarah Palin will never be president."

commie has a strong impact due to history, and the fact that Red China is "commie", and the old Soviet infiltration was "commie". It has some baggage because the commies flipped the word "McCarthyism" to mean an unfair attack on good people. (I think even Trump uses it like that).

Statist has less historical impact but gets the point across ... mostly. Of course Soviet and Red China are real world "communism" but don't fit the Utopian definition much at all. So I call real world communism just a crime syndicate with government authority. Fascism is more control of markets without ownership ... corporatist is sorta that except they control government ... but then there are the 20 global banks that are in the shadows ...

513 Fascists would do things like disarm the public, burn books, and so on, but that was not a necessary part of fascism. It was a natural and predictable consequence, but then Communists did all this too, and so do most tyrants.

Similarly, collectivists can do atrocities and horrible things but that's not a particular characteristic of collectivism, its not part of the definition. Its almost inevitable, but that's not because it is collectivism, but because its tyranny.

armies foraged - and any 'train' of supplies would have had to start
from what is now Poland, which was nominally friendly territory.

And yes, he expected the city officials to surrender Moscow, not loot it themselves and then set fire to it.

Turning back after Borodino was definitely NOT his style. He hadn't decisively defeated the Russian army and he knew it.

They may or may not be right, but as I've said repeatedly... nobody - not Barr, not anybody - is going to arrest anyone above him, because at that point, you're putting Obama and Hillary in grave danger.

It would have the potential to ruin his legacy. It would strike terror into their Deep State cronies.

It would be a sea change in US politics, and change the way this country operates, and it would greatly weaken the power of the Party and State going forward.

As an analogy - locking up Comey and Brennan and Lynch and Clapper and Yates would be the Deep State equivalent of the Politburo voting to dissolve itself.

The US is nowhere near that stage of the game - the peasants have to become restless to the point where the ruling classes genuinely fear for their lives. And that's a ways off.

The hope of Napoleon was Alexander was going to give in, there were negotiations from the French but the Russians took lots of time to brush them away, Alexander did think he was gone if he gave in. Also the French army took severe losses through the summer, horses really were getting weak and worn out as well as heavy loses just from the hot summer. It was Napoleonic propaganda that only the winter was the reason of losing the campaign.

"Sugar tit" is an old term for a type of crude pacifier made by wrapping honey or some other sugar into a cloth and tying it up in a little ball for the baby to suck on.

The town got its name for that. Years ago, way back, there was old general store there, and all the men would hang out there to the consternation of their wives.

The wives began to sarcastically refer to that store as a sugar tit.

557 6 And as a ton of people on here speculated, his wrongful termination lawsuit was a preemptive move to try and stave off criminals charges. It didn't work
---------

OF COURSE it was, but it also exposes this tool as the media hack he always was. Guy's job was to be super secret FBI guy, getting the bad guys in secret. What we got was a fragile and thin-skinned Uber-partisan Democrat who used the considerable power of his position to change the direction of a Presidential election in favor of Hillary Clinton. He ran anti-Trump Ops, WITH HILLARY'S PEOPLE, torpedoed the FBI investigation of her, leaked to the media to advance Hillary Clinton's interests, took money from Hillary Clinton (via McCabe's Wife's doomed, probably never real, campaign), opened investigations into President Elect Trump, helped orchestrate Mueller Probe, helped staff Mueller probe, and continues to lie and squirm.

As the late Alonzo Harris once said, "It's not what you know, it's what you can prove."

Well, here's what I know about the $ side of McCabe: McCabe has pulled down BIG money from Hillary Clinton already. That CNN job? Much huh.... Undoubtedly, his legal defense will be paid for, even if it takes delivery of suitcases of Clinton cash, because it's not in Clinton's interest that McCabe turn, and he knows it, and she knows it, so I'm sure arrangements have been made.

The trick here, will be charging McCabe with crimes sufficient to put him IN JAIL, for a long time. Fines in this scenario are meaningless. If the DOJ charges McCabe with serious crimes involving real jail time, all of the Clinton/Obama/DNC money they throw at him through connected book deals, CNN gigs, Him-As-Hero Movies, and the like, just won't quite do it. If you want to FLIP McCabe, you have to carry a big felony stick.

Posted by: RichardWindsor at September 12, 2019 03:30 PM (DRgs8)

558 Since the initial referral, McCabe has collected more than $500,000 in a GoFundMe and been hired by CNN to say OrangeManBad! on TV. He is very far from being Flynned.

So far, there is no justice. Barr is looking bad. If PDJT is defeated, this whole thing will disappear and the DOJ/CIA looks like they get away with a treasonous subversion of an election result not supported by their staffers.

I look for lots more indictments, and prompt trials. This isn't a complicated case and the investigation is so old witnesses may soon start pulling Bidens and forget their own names.

567 Appeasement has been off the table for quite some time. We have a tendency to focus on some things that are simply part of a "journey".
As an example-- Look at Gen Flynn. I think Judicial watch now has DIA reports that contradict much of the Benghazi narrative. Those would have started in around 2012. Flynn has been a thorn and a target for a LONG time. The decision to "take him down" would have started no later than 2013.
The above is simply ONE facet.
I am unsure how much will become publicly known, but the intent is to punish those responsible as they deserve.
