    She's right

    Comment


      Yeah, this is a big deal here. The daughter of the head of Huawei, who's also one of its senior executives, has been under house arrest here in Vancouver for almost two years awaiting an extradition hearing to the US which is now underway. In response China has arrested and jailed two Canadians on trumped up espionage charges. If the extradition goes ahead things could get very ugly.

        Indeed

        She is the Meng referred to in the press release and superseding indictment

          Another big deal

                Wow, wtf happened to him? Was he always crooked, or did the attention he got because of Stormy Daniels embolden him to cross the line? He's kind of an interesting case. Unless he was shady all along.

                  He looks to have been shady all along, but emboldened by his short-lived "resistance" cred.

                  Which isn't unusual among middle aged guys who found a sports car team so that they can drive at Le Mans

                    Maybe he's done it before, but he got caught when he made the mistake of targeting a corporation with the resources to fight back.

                      What does Barr do from here? He has legal responsibilities that are in direct conflict with Trump's interests and that contradiction has become so acute as to make his job impossible to carry out.

                        He holds on for as long as he can in order to further enable his remarkably reactionary agenda

                        Comment


                          More than 1,100 former federal prosecutors and Justice Department officials called on Attorney General William P. Barr on Sunday to step down after he intervened last week to lower the Justice Department’s sentencing recommendation for President Trump’s longtime friend Roger J. Stone Jr.

                                Stone is a shoo-out now.

                                  Madoff just had a little pee come out, I'd imagine. Slim chance, but who knows now.

                                        Roger Stone sentenced to 40 months.

                                        How long until he's pardoned?

                                          Everyone will tell him to wait until after November, but he is unlikely (as always) to listen

                                            Are we still allowed to suspect that Trump is not just a careless renegade but might be beholden to people with real leverage over him, which might explain at least some of his corrupt decisions?

                                              Why not both?

                                              Both works for me

                                                Imagine T having his fatal heart attack before getting around to Stone's pardon. A fella can dream.

                                                  You are such an idealist

                                                    That's why I said not *just* a careless renegade. It could have used an "also"
