Trump’s ‘Russian Collusion’ Is On Trial, but Mueller May Be the First Casualty

May 11, 2018 By Erik Walters


The Squeeze Is On
American’s are losing interest as the Mueller Witch-Hunt drones on. Now, after a year of unrelenting Trump scrutiny with nothing to show, Mueller is starting to feel the heat.
Once sure that there would be something to find, the ‘investigation’ has gone off the rails as the search for wrong-doing has wandered far outside the scope of the initial claim. Federal Judge Ellis called Mueller out last week and now it looks like his ’13 Russian’ indictment may have backfired too.
.
According to the dailycallernewsfoundation.org:

Lawyers for Russian company Concord Management and Consulting, LLC, formally entered a “not guilty” plea in federal court Monday in a case Special Counsel Robert Mueller probably never thought would happen.

Mueller, weathering significant criticism that his Russian collusion case was thin, unveiled a grandiose indictment Feb. 16 against 13 Russian nationals and three Russian companies. The 13 Russians in question were charged with waging “information warfare” in the United States, interfering with the 2016 presidential election, and conspiracy to defraud the United States.

Mueller generated headlines with the February indictment, safe in the knowledge the 13 Russians were beyond U.S. jurisdiction. Therefore, there would be no trial — only sensational Russian collusion accusations.

Mueller may now have to try the case, and Concord’s lawyers have put the special counsel on notice. The Russian company’s lawyers intend to invoke “discovery” to obtain U.S. intelligence about what they knew of Russian activities.

“I guess Mueller thought it was a freebie, for sure,” former federal prosecutor Andrew C. McCarthy told The Daily Caller News Foundation after the court proceeding.

“He thought it could make this association (of Russian collusion) and it would never be challenged in court,” McCarthy, a National Review contributing editor, said after the proceeding.

Concord retained the services of two attorneys at mega law firm Reed Smith, and the company is demanding a speedy trial. The lawyers indicated they were going to exercise Concord’s rights under discovery to examine all of Mueller’s “evidence” of the conspiracy.

McCarthy called Mueller’s entire indictment an “unforced error” saying:

“One thing you never want to do is to indict in a case that you’re not prepared to try.”

Mueller tried to delay Wednesday’s hearing and floated a claim Concord had not been properly served notice. But U.S. District Court Judge Dabney Friedrich agreed with Concord and rejected Mueller’s request for a delay in the trial without comment, which led to Wednesday’s arraignment.

It is the second legal headache for Mueller in two weeks. Last week, federal Judge T.S. Ellis III, a Reagan appointee, threatened to throw out the special counsel’s indictment of Paul Manafort since the charges against President Donald Trump’s former campaign manager did not relate to any charges of Russian collusion. Instead, the charges were tied to banking activities that went as far back as 2005 — more than a decade before Trump even announced his intention to run for president.”
