Jerome Corsi, famed birther and Roger Stone pal, is about to throw in the towel

Conservative writer and conspiracy theorist Jerome Corsi is in plea negotiations with special counsel Robert S. Mueller III, according to a person with knowledge of the talks.



The talks with Corsi — an associate of both President Trump and GOP operative Roger Stone — could bring Mueller’s team closer to determining whether Trump or his advisers were linked to WikiLeaks’ release of hacked Democratic emails in 2016, a key part of his long-running inquiry.



Corsi provided research on Democratic figures during the campaign to Stone, a longtime Trump adviser. For months, the special counsel has been scrutinizing Stone’s activities in an effort to determine whether he coordinated with WikiLeaks. Stone and WikiLeaks have repeatedly denied any such coordination.

Jerome Corsi, an associate of Roger Stone, told NBC News he is in talks with special counsel Robert Mueller about a plea deal.

Corsi said earlier in November that he feared he’d be indicted for perjury. He has been questioned over his knowledge of WikiLeaks obtaining hacked emails from Hillary Clinton's campaign chairman, and said Mueller's team delivered the news at a meeting in early November.

The news about Corsi’s plea negotiations was first reported by The Washington Post on Friday.

Angela Merkel Admits End Goal — Nations Must Give Up Sovereignty

Pretty much what I have been saying and so many deny.
Quote:
Last month, she said ceding power to a superstate is a better form of patriotism.

That is not the US she is talking about. And I doubt it is China, who would never consider such idiocy unless they were that power. Are we going to let Europe decide for us?

@coldjoint,
I think she might just mean European countries giving up sovereignty to the EU. If so, it's nothing that we need to worry about in America.

But perhaps future Brits might ultimately be glad if they end up with a hard "no deal" Brexit.

Either that or the UN, each equally dangerous to any kind of freedom. The citizens better assume the position or think more like Poland and Italy.

You keep claiming that but the numbers show something different. You might want to consider the difference between open and closed primaries.


You must have been hiding under a rock, when Debbie Wasserman Schultz handed in her resignation, Hi. Or, more correctly, got shunted over the rigging of the primaries to prevent Sanders' stealing a march on Clinton.

Quote:
The chair of the Democratic National Committee, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, has announced her resignation on the eve of the party’s convention, dealing a blow to hopes of demonstrating unity in the face of the threat from Donald Trump.

Schultz said she would step down after the convention. She has been forced to step aside after a leak of internal DNC emails showed officials actively favouring Hillary Clinton during the presidential primary and plotting against Clinton’s rival, Bernie Sanders.

“Debbie Wasserman Schultz has made the right decision for the future of the Democratic party,” Sanders said in a statement, adding that the party leadership must “always remain impartial in the presidential nominating process, something which did not occur in the 2016 race”.

The Sanders campaign has long claimed that the party establishment had its “finger on the scales” during the bitter and surprisingly long primary, but the embarrassing new revelations proved to be the final straw for a figure who had been a lightning rod for tension within the party.

This story seems to have confused you. Debbie Wasserman Schultz and the DNC were trying to promote Clinton's candidacy at the expense of Sanders, who was seen as an outsider. But most of this consisted of people writing e-mails back and forth trying to come up with a strategy; the primaries weren't "rigged". No one was prevented from casting a vote for their preferred candidate; there have been no accusations that votes were miscounted or that there was any sort of voter fraud. Concern about the timing of the debates is trivial and it would be very difficult to prove that it would even have had an impact. As people have tried to explain to you, Sanders defeated Clinton is states with open primaries where any registered voter can vote for any candidate in any party. Clinton did better than Sanders in states with closed primaries as she was favored by more party regulars. There was nothing illegal about this.

@hightor,
It's not confusion, Hightor. It's the fact that some people are determined to live in an alternate reality. In their world, Fox is a reputable network. In their world, 45 is an honorable, competent leader. In their world Hillary and Pelosi represent everything evil and every shooting committed by police is justifiable. So, reason with them if you must, but don't expect to ever clarify things for them by providing them with facts.

Has everyone in the US corraled their Christians ?

The ‘Democrats are planning to kill thousands of Christians’ is a common theme in pro-Trump Christian broadcasting. Around the same time Wiles made his prediction about Rachel Maddow, televangelist and apocalyptic doomsday prepper Jim Bakker was telling his viewers that liberals are “gonna begin to kill the Christian leaders in this country.”

Wiles agrees.

“They will spill blood in America,” Wiles predicted. “That is their purpose. That is their objective.

and off he goes

https://www.cnn.com/2018/11/25/politics/papadopoulos-request-denied-must-report-prison/index.html

Quote:
Despite his last-minute requests and hopes, former Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos will still have to start his 14-day prison sentence on Monday for lying to federal investigators in the Russia probe.

Papadopoulos had asked a federal judge twice in the last 10 days to pause his sentence. The federal Bureau of Prisons has him set to surrender at a correctional camp in Wisconsin tomorrow.

The judge who sentenced him, however, denied both of his requests on Sunday, saying Papadopoulos hadn't filed any court appeals within the window he was allowed and gave a firm nod that the office of special counsel, which prosecuted Papadopoulos, has acted correctly.

Papadopoulos gave up much of his rights to appeal under his plea agreement, which he cut with the special counsel's office last year.
He hadn't used any legal tools he still had at hand in his recent court requests, the judge, Randy Moss of the US District Court for the District of Columbia, added.

Papadopoulos will be the third defendant in the Mueller probe to serve jail time. Previously, the Dutch lawyer Alex Van Der Zwaan stayed almost a month in a Pennsylvania federal prison for lying to investigators, while the Californian fake ID salesman Richard Pinedo is being held in a southern California prison until mid-May 2019.

Papadopoulos' full sentence includes the prison time, a $9,500 fine, a year of probation and 200 hours of community service.

He pled guilty last year to lying to investigators about his contact with Russian affiliates during the campaign, including a mysterious European man who told him Russians had "dirt" on Hillary Clinton. When federal agents approached Papadopoulos about his interactions with the foreigners, he lied to them repeatedly, he admitted in court. In court filings, Papadopoulos has also accused former Attorney General Jeff Sessions of lying about his interactions on the campaign.

At his sentencing this fall, the 31-year-old said he felt "embarrassed" and "ashamed" for his actions in the investigation. But in the weeks that followed his sentencing in early September, Papadopoulos brought in a new legal team to make court filings on his behalf. He has said publicly via Twitter that he was a victim in a government conspiracy and will "expose" a corrupt investigation.

Specifically, Papadopoulos claimed to the judge that his prison term should be put on hold while an appeals court weighs the constitutionality of Robert Mueller's appointment as special counsel. Four lower-court judges have already written that Mueller has acted appropriately as a Justice Department prosecutor.

Moss in his opinion Sunday shot down the speculation that Mueller's work was at odds with the US Constitution and predicted the DC Circuit Court of Appeals would uphold the special counsel's authority.

"Based on the reasoning contained in those opinions [of other judges], Court concludes that the prospect that the DC Circuit will reach a contrary conclusion is remote," Moss wrote.

@Walter Hinteler,
If the Europeans start giving heavy weapons to Ukraine, not only will they have the gratitude of the people who they are helping to defend their nation, but they will keep Putin so busy with the fighting there that he will have no time to think about invading the EU.

Yeah, sure. But meanwhile how about just addressing the question and showing us that you're not confused — how exactly was the vote "rigged"? Let me guess — it had something to do with Pizza-gate, right?

US Media Omit Violence By Caravan of Illegals As It Tries to Rush the US Border Wall

You will not get the facts from the MSM.
Quote:
But the real story is a lot less sympathetic. The Border Patrol and CBP agents used tear gas because they were under attack by a rock-throwing mob. Watch the activity in the top right of the video.

Here illegally and using violence to try and enter, and encouraged by Leftists which are now the real voice of the Democrats. Again the law means nothing to these people.
