The role of Germany in Trump Affair - 3:13 PM 2/21/2019
“Fake news,” “enemy of the people,” “dishonest,” “disgusting” — President Donald Trump's headliner criticisms of the media have gobbled up a lot of ...
As rumors again swirl about the supposed conclusion of the Robert Mueller investigation, to be followed by a report that may or may not be officially released to the public in its entirety, Donald Trump is reportedly buttering up newly confirmed Attorney General William Barr. This lame attempt to throw an arm around the new guy’s shoulders to sell him on the virtues of the misunderstood Trump presidency is destined to fail for obvious reasons, but it’s another embarrassing signal that Trump and his followers are fully invested in fooling themselves.
A recent bombshell report from the New York Times includes a poll indicating that the president’s goons have had some success tarnishing the credibility of the investigation. That enhances the false sense of security for Trumpists, along with frustration and worry for Americans. Trump ingratiating himself with Barr doesn’t make us feel any better even if it seems comically desperate. Stories about the “End of the Investigation” and the “Big Report that will Explain Everything” are repackaged. We get anxious.
But the worry about some golden ticket report for Trump is unwarranted. There is no stipulation that a report halts any continuing investigation, and germane information won’t be released publicly by anyone interested in justice if it interferes with those investigations. The report could read, “We investigated those things over there. We’re still investigating these things over here. Have a blessed day.” A full public accounting is clearly not happening in a week. This dark web will likely take years, perhaps decades to unravel as the Trump-Russia conspirators deteriorate in prison cells while watching true crime documentaries about themselves.
Compare Andrew McCabe’s version of events during his very public unmasking of Donald Trump to Trump’s version, based on known facts, and determine which is believable. Then consider the corroborating evidence that Mueller and SDNY investigators are presently acting on, which digs much deeper on what is publicly known (and shockingly unknown), and realize that the fallout from probing Trump’s treasonous ascension will be enormous.
If even a fraction of what seems to be true is provable, and Trump’s family goes down, Trump may see chaos as his only way out. So, when Barr says alarming things about the release of the report or questions the indictment of a sitting president, remember that he’s Mueller’s guy, not Trump’s, and everyone without connection to Trump in these multitudinous investigations is not only working to bring Trump et al to justice, they’re also managing a massive criminal investigation into the most unpredictable and dangerous president in U.S. history. That’s a big reason their motivations aren’t always immediately clear. They have a powerful, belligerent moron to pacify.
That’s why it would make more sense for Robert Mueller to throw a seemingly quiet report out to Barr for him to present a summary of to Congress, calming Trump and his enablers while those in the know stealthily go about their business, talking heads be damned. Don’t believe the hype.

<p>Since the election of President Trump we’ve seen politicians discard the rules of normal convention and act petulantly at every turn.</p>
<p>One recent example is California Gov. Gavin Newsom, who is refusing to return money rightfully belonging to the federal government. California had received $3.5 billion in federal funds that were awarded to the Golden State to build a high speed rail line between Los Angeles and San Francisco.</p>
<p>The project has been a disaster, replete with cost overruns and delays for nearly a decade. As the Associated Press reported, Gov. Newsom announced last week that the rail line project would be scaled back and modified to more modest ends. In other words, the plan for which California was awarded billions in tax dollars has been thrown out.</p>
<p>Now the federal government wants its (aka the taxpayer’s) money back.</p>
<p>The U.S. Department of Transportation said Newsom had all but confirmed that the project was being scrubbed or irreversibly compromised.</p>
<p>“Governor Newsom presented a new proposal that represents a significant retreat from the State’s initial vision and commitment and frustrates the purpose for which Federal funding was awarded,” read the letter outlining the case for cancelling forthcoming money and recouping the balance.</p>
<p>Newsom is vowing to keep every last dime and has contended that President Trump is using the issue to punish California for suing the administration over the<a href="https://www.bostonherald.com/2019/02/18/16-states-sue-trump-over-wall-funding/"> emergency declaration to pay for a border wall</a>.</p>
<p>“This is clear political retribution by President Trump, and we won’t sit idly by,” Newsom said. “This is California’s money, and we are going to fight for it.”</p>
<p>As recently as Wednesday, President Trump tweeted on the matter, ratcheting up the tough talk. “California now wants to scale back their already failed ‘fast train’ project by substantially shortening the distance so that it no longer goes from L.A. to San Francisco. A different deal and record cost overruns. Send the Federal Government back the Billions of Dollars WASTED!,” his message read.</p>
<p>Trump is right. California owes the rest of the country billions of dollars and they should pay up. If a similar scenario played out in the private sector it would be considered fraud and indictments would be issued.</p>
<p>Elected leaders must learn to uncouple their hurt feelings from their day-to-day responsibilities. It is not President Trump’s money California is holding onto, it is ours.</p>

Special counsel Robert S. Mueller III on Capitol Hill in June 2017. (Joshua Roberts/Reuters)
Justice Department officials are preparing for the end of special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s nearly two-year investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and believe a confidential report could be issued in coming days, according to people familiar with the discussions.
The special counsel’s investigation has consumed Washington since it began in May 2017, and it increasingly appears to be nearing its end, which would send fresh shock waves through the political system. Mueller could deliver his report to Attorney General William P. Barr next week, according to a person familiar with the matter who, like others, spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive deliberations.
Regulations call for Mueller to submit to the attorney general a confidential explanation as to why he decided to charge certain individuals, as well as who else he investigated and why he decided not to charge those people. The regulations then call for the attorney general to report to Congress about the investigation.
An adviser to President Trump said there is palpable concern among the president’s inner circle that the report might contain information about Trump and his team that is politically damaging, but not criminal conduct.
Even before he was confirmed by the Senate, Barr had preliminary discussions about the logistics surrounding the conclusion of Mueller’s inquiry, a second person said. At that time, though, Barr had not been briefed on the substance of Mueller’s investigation, so the conversations were limited.

CNN first reported Wednesday that Mueller could send a report to Barr as early as next week.
A spokesman for Mueller declined to comment, as did a Justice Department spokeswoman.
How detailed either Mueller’s report and the attorney general’s summary of the findings will be is unclear. Lawmakers have demanded that Mueller’s report be made public, but Barr has been noncommittal on that point, saying that he intends to be as forthcoming as the regulations and department practice allow. He has pointed, however, to Justice Department practices that insist on saying little or nothing about conduct that does not lead to criminal charges.
The special counsel’s office, which used to have 17 lawyers, is down to 12 now, and some of those attorneys have recently been in touch with their old bosses about returning to work, according to people familiar with the discussions. All but four of the remaining 12 lawyers are detailed from other Justice Department offices.
The end of the special counsel’s probe would not mean the end of criminal investigations connected to the president. Federal prosecutors in New York, for instance, are exploring whether corrupt payments were made in connection with Trump’s inaugural committee funding.
Congress and the Justice Dept. are fixed for a fight over the Mueller report

If Mueller does close up shop, government lawyers on his team would likely return to their original posts, but would be able to continue to work on the prosecution of cases initiated by the special counsel’s office.
That was the case for two special counsel lawyers, Brandon Van Grack and Scott Meisler, who have left the office formally but are still working on cases begun by Mueller.
When the special counsel brought the case against Roger Stone, a longtime Trump adviser and friend, accusing him of lying to Congress, attorneys from the U.S. attorney’s office in Washington were assigned to it from the start — an indication that Mueller expects to hand off the investigation soon.
The four prosecutors remaining who aren’t part of the Justice Department are some of the special counsel’s highest-ranking lawyers: Aaron Zebley, who is effectively Mueller’s chief of staff; James Quarles, who is a senior executive in the office; Jeannie Rhee, the lead prosecutor in the case against Michael Cohen, Trump’s former personal attorney; and Greg Andres, the lead prosecutor in the trial of Paul Manafort, Trump’s former campaign chairman.
According to people familiar with the special counsel’s work, Mueller has envisioned it as an investigative assignment, not necessarily a prosecutorial one, and for that reason does not plan to keep the office running to see to the end all of the indictments it has filed.
Mueller’s work has led to criminal charges against 34 people. Six Trump associates and advisers have pleaded guilty.
Among those who have pleaded guilty are Trump’s former national security adviser, Michael Flynn; former deputy campaign manger Rick Gates; and former campaign adviser George Papadopoulos, as well as Manafort and Cohen.
Most of the people charged in Mueller’s investigation are Russians. Because there is no extradition treaty with that country, those 26 individuals are unlikely to ever see the inside of a U.S. courtroom.
None of the Americans charged by Mueller are accused of conspiring with Russia to interfere in the election. Determining whether any Trump associates had plotted with the Kremlin in 2016 was the central question assigned to Mueller when he got the job, in a moment of crisis for the FBI, the Justice Department and the country.
Days earlier, Trump had fired FBI Director James B. Comey. The purported reason for the dismissal was Comey’s handling of the 2016 investigation of Hillary Clinton, but Trump said in an interview with NBC shortly after the firing that he was thinking about the Russia inquiry when he decided to fire Comey.
Because FBI directors are appointed to 10-year terms to ensure their political independence, the Comey firing rattled Washington, setting off alarms not just in the Justice Department but in Congress, where lawmakers feared the president was determined to end the Russia investigation before it was completed.
In the wake of Comey’s firing, Deputy Attorney General Rod J. Rosenstein chose Mueller as special counsel in part to quell the burgeoning political crisis.
Mueller, a Vietnam War veteran, prosecutor and former FBI director, was highly regarded. Politicians on both sides of the aisle — as well as law enforcement and intelligence veterans within federal agencies — had long admired and trusted Mueller, a Republican.
Trump has repeatedly denounced the Mueller investigation as a “witch hunt” and accused Mueller’s prosecutors of political bias because a number of them had made donations to Democratic candidates in the past. Some congressional Republicans who back the president have repeatedly attacked Mueller’s work as corrupted by anti-Trump bias among Comey and his senior advisers at the FBI.
When Mueller’s investigation ends, it is likely to set off a fresh political firestorm.
Democrats are already demanding a detailed public accounting of what Mueller found, beyond what is in the public indictments and trial evidence to date. Republicans, meanwhile, are poised to escalate their attacks on the special counsel’s work as a waste of time and money — and paint the end of the investigation as final proof that there was nothing to the suspicion that the Trump campaign colluded with the Kremlin.
Much of Mueller’s time was spent trying to determine whether the president attempted to obstruct the investigation. Toward that end, Mueller questioned those closest to the president about his private statements about the inquiry, his public tweets that attacked law enforcement officials, and internal White House documents that might shed light on Trump’s behavior.
Months and months of negotiations over a possible interview of Trump came to little. Ultimately, Mueller and the Justice Department did not serve the president with a subpoena, which could have led to a fight at the Supreme Court, and Trump’s lawyers submitted written answers to questions from the special counsel.

There’s a wider scandal suggested by the Trump investigations
Ofer Raban, University of Oregon
The scope of financial crimes unearthed so far by state and federal authorities investigating President Trump and his associates is remarkable.
The blame for this loose regulatory environment is not limited to lax executive enforcement. Legislative and judicial actions play a substantial part in the swirling financial illegalities.
Congress, for example, is responsible for the many easily abused tax deductions for the rich thatpopulate our tax code. And legislators have long refused to fund the IRS at levels allowing effective tax enforcement.
It is also Congress that has structured the Federal Election Commission as a weak and conflict-ridden enforcer of campaign finance regulations.
The courts have similarly contributed to the lax regulatory environment. As a professor of constitutional law (and ex-prosecutor), I have watched with concern as recent Supreme Court cases extended ever-increasing constitutional protections to the alliance between big money and politics.
In recent years, the Supreme Court invalidated numerous campaign finance restrictions by declaring them unconstitutional. In doing so, the court stated that “a substantial and legitimate reason” for making a political campaign contribution is that “the candidate will respond by producing those political outcomes the supporter favors.”
What many regard as political corruption is constitutionally protected as a staple of democracy by our highest court.
Six months before Trump’s election, the Supreme Court reversed the criminal conviction of a former Virginia governor on federal corruption charges. Gov. Robert McDonnell received personal gifts and loans worth hundreds of thousands of dollars from a Virginia businessman.
In exchange, McDonnell sought to influence the University of Virginia to conduct free research on the man’s commercial product.
A jury convicted the governor on federal corruption charges, and a federal court of appeals affirmed. But the Supreme Court reversed the conviction after narrowing the definition of what counts as criminal corruption under federal law.
The conviction, said the court, raised serious constitutional concerns because it could chill interactions between politicians and their supporters.
As in McDonnell’s own case, the decision’s significance extends beyond matters of campaign finance. The case was recently cited as a cause for the acquittal, on federal bribery charges, of a high-ranking New York City police official who for years received lavish gifts from wealthy businessmen.
Business and political elite
The rich rewards of the Trump investigations suggest that big-money illegalities are rife in America. And while Trump may be in a league of his own, the problem is not limited to Trump.
Indeed, some of the people embroiled in the Trump scandals have long been situated at the heart of America’s business and political elite.
Paul Manafort, for one, also worked on the campaigns of Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush and Bob Dole. And the Trumps themselves were always highly politically connected – contributing millions to leading state and federal politicians, both Democrats and Republicans.
“As a business person,” explained Trump in a 2015 interview, “you wanna get along with all sides because you’re gonna need things from everybody.”
Consider the recently disclosed episode involving Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance, Jr. – son of the late former secretary of state under President Carter.
In 2012, Vance ordered prosecutors to drop a promising fraud case against Ivanka Trump and Donald Trump Jr. for lying to investors in a Trump project in Manhattan. The order was made after their father’s attorney paid Vance a visit.
Weeks later, the attorney became one of Vance’s largest donors for his re-election campaign.
That is the wider scandal suggested by the investigations of Trump and his cronies: The high levels of brazen big-money illegalities that ordinarily go unaddressed and unpunished. Indeed many of the alleged crimes are no longer chargeabledue to the statute of limitations. “Zero tolerance” and “broken windows” policies are terms frequently used by law enforcement in discussing low-level crime. But American law enforcement appears to avoid the penthouses.
There is deep irony in the fact that Trump and his cronies are being pursued for the sort of crimes whose chronic under-enforcement generated the inequality and resentment that helped catapult Trump to the presidency. Ofer Raban, Professor of Constitutional Law, University of Oregon

M. N.: The New Abwehr enjoys and employs the deep and intimate connections with the criminal Underworld which go back to the early 1920-s, the conditions after the Germany's defeat in the WW1 and the resulting "Restrictions" (I almost typed "Sanctions") which made the symbiotic and sometimes parasitic relations with Police and Criminals the matter of survival for the Abwehr which based itself at that time at the Military Police Stations. Money Laundering is another, related sub-specialty which was a matter of survival and necessity at that time, and the Abwehr under Canaris (which really is the Abwehr we are talking about) made both areas the traditional historical "fields of excellence". Money Laundering , from Deutsche Bank to Chabad dealers to Oligarchs, e.g. Lev Leviev and others, and most notably by our pretty laundry girls and boys from the Trump-Kushner Crime Family , was and is one of the truly heart felt activities for the Abwehr, and...
