it seems that the russian 'scandal' is just about past us and kunstler explores some of the potential for its demise;
Last Friday morning, we adjourned the blog in anticipation of Special
Counsel Robert Mueller handing over certain FBI documents in the
General Flynn matter demanded by DC District Federal Judge Emmett G.
Sullivan no later than 3:00 p.m. that day. Guess what. Mr. Mueller’s
errand boys did not hand over the required documents — original FBI 302
interrogation reports. Instead, they proffered a half-assed “interview”
with one of the two agents who conducted the Flynn interrogation, Peter
Strzok, attempting to recollect the 302 half a year after it was
written. Of course, Mr. Strzok was notoriously fired from the Bureau in
August for bouts of wild political fury on-the-job as FBI counter-intel
chief during and after the 2016 election. (This was the second time he
was fired; the first was when Robert Mueller discarded him from the SC
team in 2017 as a legal liability.)
So, 3:00 p.m. Friday has come and gone. It appears that the FBI 302
docs have come and gone, too. Actually, we have reason to believe that
nothing ever created on a computer connected to the internet can
actually disappear entirely. Rather, the data gets sucked into the
bottomless well of the NSA server-farm out in Utah. Most likely, the
original 302s exist and Mr. Mueller is pretending he can’t find them. In
effect, it appears that Mr. Mueller has responded by gently whispering
“fuck you” to Judge Sullivan.
Interestingly, The New York Times didn’t even report the story (nor The WashPo,
nor CNN, nor MSNBC). Since their “Russia Collusion” narrative is
foundering, they can’t tolerate any suggestion that their Avenging Angel
of Impeachment, Mr. Mueller, is less than the sanctified plain dealer
he affects to be. Judge Sullivan kept his own counsel all weekend. The
next scheduled chapter in the story is Gen. Flynn’s sentencing this
Tuesday. It would be a surprise if the Judge does not observe that Mr.
Mueller has acted in contempt of court. Ditto if the charge against Gen.
Flynn is not thrown out. After all, the main articles of evidence
against him apparently don’t exist........http://kunstler.com/clusterfuck-nation/fatal-over-reach/
