Well when the nukes start flying this will all be a faint memory.
Could you try not to sound so hopeful for the nuclear holocaust?

I mean, it's either that: A) Actual bank fraud investigators are asleep on the wheel. B) These charges normally do not amount to anything worthwhile, generally a fine or something of that nature. C) The Russian investigation not only comes up empty, but Mueller has to bring something to justify this faux investigation. Meaning that there is not only not any collusion between Trump and Russia, but Mueller is specifically ignoring actual collusion done between Russia, Clinton, and Obama Administration. Which leads to it's own special prosecutor for that investigation. Which will never happen because reasons. Quote: conspiracy against the United States, conspiracy to launder money, unregistered agent of a foreign principal, false and misleading US Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) statements, false statements, and seven counts of failure to file reports of foreign bank and financial accounts. I know, I know, if it's not bolded it's unreadable. No point in holding a trial, they are obviously guilty of not filing paperwork! Might as well get the firing squad ready! Well I guess bolding 2 things is too much for you, I should have known. Expecting someone to not jump to conclusions based on non-specific charges before the details are even available is also too hard. Confirmation bias is real. Yeah I agree, KN is jumping to conclusions way too quickly. Nominated for lamest deflection of the day. So you agree with this statement?

Which leads to it's own special prosecutor for that investigation. Which will never happen because reasons. I thought you were somewhat rational. Tell us them, why would these charges be newsworthy, or even relevant to this investigation? I thought Mueller is supposed to investigate collusion between the Russian government and the Trump campaign, or any campaign in general (but he is ignoring the obvious collusion between Clinton and Russia, but that's another story).

I'm hoping they can nuke Wal Mart just in time for Black Friday.

The thing is, he is empowered to investigate alleged collusion and any additional wrongdoings he uncovers while doing so. He is actually doing exactly what he was told. It will be like Fallout 4 but with better dialogue and frame rate.

Forgot to add "So if he finds something he can throw at Clinton, I'm sure he will." How they could spend that long on Fallout 4 with a terrible game engine is beyond me.

If this indictment has nothing to do with Trump, why did Trump immediately distance himself from Manafort and go on the defensive?
Ramyrez said: » Asura.Kingnobody said: » Which could be substantial. Then again, we don't know the value of the accounts, and if the accounts themselves equal to or less than $10,000 USD, then there are no filing requirements at all and Manafort can protest that in court. And also get all charges dropped because of it (in regards to FBAR). Figure I saw quoted was $18M. No idea if that's actual amount we're talking for this particular charge. Which also leads to the question as to why IRS and the bank regulators allowed this non-filing to occur in the first place. Other people would have been hit with this a whole lot sooner than now. Suspicious.

Trump distanced himself from Manafort faster than he distanced himself from the Ku Klux Klan.
...oh wait.

Next thing you know, he's going to charge Trump for a traffic ticket he didn't pay when he was 16.

When you can get mods that increase visuals and still decrease framerate... I was pissing around an area and wanted to see if there was anything inside a few wrecked vehicles but I didn't want to go back and get my jetpack, so I just turned clipping off to take a peak. This was near water, so there was a sunken boat sticking out of the water. But only like...a few feet of the prow of the boat. ...if you clip beneath the ground, the entire boat is rendered. No wonder ***takes so long to load when you're rendering things you'll never see without developer cheats.

Manafont is going to cast warp 2 on Mueller problem solved.
That or if they go in a dungeon he can cast escape.
Asura.Kingnobody said: » It's almost like he has to go out of his way to find some wrongdoing. I'm interested to see where things go from here. It could be huge (yuge?) Or it could be nothing. Either way, at least it won't be boring! fonewear said: » That or if they go in a dungeon he can cast escape. Do the tunnels below the White House count?

Caitsith.Shiroi said: » He will have a trial, we will (maybe) get to see the evidence the investigators have and then we will know if Russia is involved ... so 2 years minimum from now since Manafort has money. So just in time for more Russia ***to help/hurt another presidential campaign. *** Russkies. |
