The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

Mr Mueller's "Pit Bull"


For John, BLUFDo you want a "Pit Bull" or do you want a professional, ethical, lawyer?  This is an unforced error.  Nothing to see here; just move along.




From her eponymous web site, by Ms Sarah Carter, 15 Feb 2018.

Here is the lede plus two:

The top attorney in Robert Mueller’s Special Counsel’s office was reported to the Department of Justice’s Inspector General by a lawyer representing whistleblowers for alleged “corrupt legal practices” nearly a decade before the 2016 presidential election, this reporter has learned.

Described by the New York Times as Mueller’s ‘pitbull,’ Andrew Weissmann, a former Eastern District of New York Assistant U.S. Attorney, rose through the ranks to eventually become Mueller’s general counsel at the F.B.I.

In 2015 Weissmann was selected to run the Department of Justice’s criminal fraud section and was later handpicked by Mueller to join the ongoing Special Counsel’s Office investigation into the alleged obstruction and alleged collusion between Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign and Russia.

If you are going for the President, your shot needs to be clean, otherwise you will carry the opprobrium of your shady operation to your grave and then into history.  To do otherwise would show a sense of self-righteousness that knows no bounds.

Hat tip to the InstaPundit.
