Totally corrupt lawyers, but his point is 'not my fault' I'm pretty sure.

I don't think he's nearly as gangster as, say, me.

Corrupt lawyers...

Anyway, enough with that parallel stuff.

There are PLENTY of Obstruction Of Justice cases in the Mueller Report Tome deux.

Why does it seem like nobody is investigating all TEN of them yet?

When will they start??

They was never any mechanism by which he would be held accountable, not then, not now.

2- Publish the entire Mueller Report without barr's redactions... and the GJ materials...

But that won’t absolve Weisselberg of liability in the Manhattan District Attorney’s wide-ranging investigation into the Trump organization. Aired on 04/26/2021.
