The Law As Weapon
The Law As Weapon
Paul Craig Roberts
Robert Mueller is supposed to be
investigating Russiagate, which has been shown to be a hoax concocted by former
CIA director John Brennan, former FBI director James Comey, and current deputy
Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. As Russiagate is a hoax, Mueller has not been
able to produce a shred of evidence of the alleged Trump/Putin plot to hack
Hillary’s emails and influence the last presidential election.
With his investigation unable to
produce any evidence of the alleged Russiagate, Mueller concluded that he had
to direct attention away from the failed hoax by bringing some sort of case
against someone, knowing that the incompetent and corrupt US media and the
insouciant public would assume that the case had something to do with
Russiagate.
Mueller chose Paul Manafort as a
target, hoping that faced with fighting false charges, Manafort would make a
deal and make up some lies about Trump and Putin in exchange for the case
against him being dropped. But Manafort stood his ground, forcing Mueller to go
forward with a false case.
Manafort’s career is involved with
Republican political campaigns. He is charged with such crimes as paying for NY
Yankee baseball tickets with offshore funds not declared to tax authorities and
with attempting to get bank loans on the basis of misrepresentation of his
financial condition. In the prosecutors’ case, Manafort doesn’t have to have
succeeded in getting a loan based on financial misrepresentation, only to be
guilty of trying. Two of the people testifying against him have been paid off
with dropped charges.
Mueller’s investigation is restricted
to Russiagate. In other words, Mueller has no mandate to investigate or bring
charges unrelated to Russiagate. In my opinion, Muller gets away with this only
because the deputy Attorney General is in on the Russiagate plot against Trump.
Mueller and Rosenstein know that they can count on the presstitutes to continue
to deceive the public by presenting the Manafort trial as part of Russiagate.
The trial judge has twice criticized
the prosecutors, asking them on one occasion if they had any evidence of
successful fraud. In other words, the judge can tell the difference between
actual fraud and a failed attempt at fraud, a distinction the prosecutors don’t
want the jury to consider.
However, prosecutors can frame a
judge, just as they are trying to frame the presidents of the United States and
Russia. Realizing that, the judge backed off.
What the Manafort trial should tell
you is how utterly and totally corrupt the United States is. In my opinion,
there is nowhere an organization as corrupt as the US Dept of Justice (sic).
That Russiagate continues on its
corrupt course should tell you how powerless President Trump is. Trump cannot
even influence his own Department of Justice, which is doing its best to
destroy him.
