Witness in Trump-Russia probe claims Mueller grand jury looks like a Black Lives Matter rally
An unnamed witness who testified in special counsel Robert Muellers probe of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential elections tells the New York Posts Richard Johnson that he fears Trump wont get a fair shake because there no white men serving on the grand jury.
The grand jury room looks like a Bernie Sanders rally, the source told Johnson. Maybe they found these jurors in central casting, or at a Black Lives Matter rally in Berkeley.
The source explained that 11 out of the 20 jurors were black, while adding that two of the jurors were wearing peace t-shirts.
The witness also claimed that there was only one white male in the room, and he was a prosecutor.
In conclusion, that source believes that this grand jury isnt a place where POTUS gets a fair shake.

(4,407 posts)They have come up with a way to try to make the Mueller investigation about the only thing Trumpers really care about. Race.
That is the only subject that truly keeps loyal MAGAmites loyal.
Edit: Also, the reference to "Black Lives Matter Rally" tells us everything we need to know about this supposed "witness."

(52,126 posts)in it's pretty telling on many levels that this person figures only white males give donnie a "fair shake".
it's also interesting how the source is presuming donnie is the accused.
not that mueller is upholding the law, not that mueller is doing donnie a favor by getting rid of criminal in his midst, no.
mueller is simply out to get donnie.

(6,384 posts)First of all, blurting out during an active investigation can get you into serious trouble.
Second, when does anyone care about the composition of a Grand Jury? They are essentially there to rubber stamp the Prosecutions investigation. For them not to agree means the prosecutor should be fired for incompetence.
Their job is to decide if their is enough evidence for the prosecution to proceed. Shit, the FBI, CIA, NSA, etc. have already decided that.
And "unnamed" source makes this even more shady.

Going after the jury like this... he really is a most despicable crook.
