Well, because he doesnt necessarily know what to say. What he has done at this point is that he has put his intelligence chiefs in a very awkward position because they are not go you to have to come out and answer for what President Trump said less than 24 hours ago, where he said that this probe the mueller probe, quote, from the from the reuters article played right into the russians, if it was russia, they played into the russian hands. The idea the president of the United States continues to cast doubt on his own Intelligence Agencies findings that russia is trying to infiltrate our Electoral System is amazing. The fact that he continues to get away with it just really is astounding. Its shocking. How dangerous is it that this happened . That it was clearly targeted. You remember marco rubio in 2016 wh
News, analysis and interviews with politicians and observers. Back in the jury room. So how this all unfolded, just after 11 00 a. M. , the jury did send a note to the court asking the judge, judge, what do we do if we cant come to a unanimous decision on one of the 18 counts. That implies that perhaps they have reached a decision unanimously on the other 17 counts, but they havent said that definitively. What the judge had to do was he had to come up with instructions to give the jury as it pertained to them going back and deliberating yet again. That just happened. In just the past few minutes, the judge instructed the jury, go back into the jury room and continue to work on that one final count. Try to continue to work, to come to some unanimous verdict on that one remaining count. Outside of the presence of the jury, the judge indicated that he might be prepared to accept a partial verdict if they werent able to come to a conclusion on that one remaining count that they seem to hav

News, analysis and interviews with politicians and observers. Personal purposes. On the other hand, if it came out of a Donald Trump Trust fund, which i understand weisselberg also manages, it might not be any kind of a financial tax crime.

And weisselbergs cooperation seems to be limited to the cohen probe. What would prosecutors need to call weisselberg back and ask him to provide information about other potential crimes .

too. In the Washington Post, the new york times, when backed into a corner, everyone around will tell you its when he lashes out. Seen the tweets.
