I never had anything against Ivana. The man she married turned out to be a world-class asshole, but how is that her fault? As I understand it, she married a couple-three guys after Chump and they all turned out to be assholes. But she never changed her name after the first asshole, I guess for the sake of her (pathetic) children.

BRDS - thank you for the gifted article!
They've got the goods on the Chump workers. Now the question is, will they shut up and go to jail like good little employees? Or will they turn on their boss and spill the beans? I have no doubt he's waving the signed NDAs in their faces, because that's his standard M.O. |

51. I think in this case
|
that is what DOJ has to determine - how many and exactly who participated in this and then decide what to charge them with. This would be a judgement call requiring they can show that these participants knowingly attempted to obstruct or were innocently caught up in the scheme as workers who "did as they were told" without any conception of doing so being "illegal". This is all ancillary to 45's involvement, but it adds to what type of testimony is needed and types of documentation that might have to be gathered, to make those determinations.
(and I keep forgetting that both the NYT and WaPo offer 10 "free" gift links per month but I try to find non-paywalled stuff to make it easier in any case ) |
