Explain this to me like I am a six year old - part 2

So the basic argument as to why the Stormy Daniels non-disclosure agreement was violation of the campaign contributions laws, is because the Trump Organization:

  • Did not disclose the payment as a campaign expenditure. 
  • They funneled the payment through a company (which would be a violation of campaign laws)
  • They falsely claimed that the money was payment for "legal services" (which it was not.)

So let's throw the book at them, right? After all if you commit a crime, then you commit a crime. Unless of course you have a different letter behind your name:
The Clinton campaign paid Fusion GPS to compile a dossier against Mr. Trump, a document that became the basis of the Russia narrative Mr. Mueller now investigates. But the campaign funneled the money to law firm Perkins Coie, which in turn paid Fusion. The campaign falsely described the money as payment for “legal services.” The Democratic National Committee did the same. 
So there you have it. The Steele dossier was bought and paid for by the Clinton campaign and the DNC. It was not reported as a campaign expenditure. Payment was funneled through a company. They claimed that the payments were for legal service. Moreover, they fully admit that the Steele dossier was "opposition research". If a non-disclosure-agreement is a campaign expenditure, then opposition research certainly is as well.

So can someone explain this to me like I am a six year old? Why is what Trump did being called a crime, but what the Clinton campaign and DNC did perfectly legal?

Precisely why half the country has no trust in Robert Mueller. He refuses to look at the other political party or criminal deep state as activity because they're not part of the trump team.

If there is only “one set of rules,” where is Mr. Mueller’s referral of a case against Hillary for America? Federal law requires campaigns to disclose the recipient and purpose of any payments. The Clinton campaign paid Fusion GPS to compile a dossier against Mr. Trump, a document that became the basis of the Russia narrative Mr. Mueller now investigates. But the campaign funneled the money to law firm Perkins Coie, which in turn paid Fusion. The campaign falsely described the money as payment for “legal services.” The Democratic National Committee did the same. A Perkins Coie spokesperson has claimed that neither the Clinton campaign nor the DNC was aware that Fusion GPS had been hired to conduct the research, and maybe so. But a lot of lawyers here seemed to have been ignoring a clear statute, presumably with the intent of influencing an election.

Prosecutions under the Foreign Agent Registration Act (FARA) are also exceptionally rare, though Mr. Mueller is getting media kudos for hammering the likes of Paul Manafort and Rick Gates for failing to register as lobbyists for foreign entities. The law is the law.

But under this standard, where are the charges against the principals of Fusion GPS, who Sen. Chuck Grassley has said look to have been lobbying on behalf of powerful Russians against a U.S. sanctions law, with its payment again funneled through a law firm? This was a sideline to its dossier work, but Mr. Mueller usually has no issue with sideline charges.

Or what about an evenhanded look at dossier author Christopher Steele ? FARA also requires foreigners to register if they act on behalf of a foreign principal. Recently disclosed emails from senior Justice Department official Bruce Ohr show the British Mr. Steele pleading the case to the Justice Department on behalf of a Russian oligarch, Oleg Deripaska.

Of the seven U.S. citizens Mr. Mueller has charged, five have been accused of (among other things) making false statements to federal officials. But there have been no charges against the partisans who made repeated abjectly false claims to the FBI and Justice Department about actions of their political opponents. There have been no charges against those who leaked classified information, including the unprecedented release of an unmasked conversation between former national security adviser Mike Flynn and a Russian ambassador. Nothing.

The more people like Roger pretend that a bunch of people who have been fired, demoted, sanctioned, and referred for criminal prosecution... are fair and honest. Or pretend that if someone finds the same action criminal for one person and not criminal for another, that it's not hypocritical or partisan.

all so they don't have to answer logical questions.

The easier it is to diagnose them with TDS.

The only thing I wonder is if Roger "actually" believes his own b.s. (if he is really blind to the facts) or if he just makes the argument because he feels he has to make an argument of some sort (no matter how stupid).

JAMES EXPLAINS IT TO A SIX YEAR OLD

Trump’s Hell Week


Jonathan Swan: “For the first time, I’m hearing real fear and concern in the voices of Trump allies.

“The warning lights of growing legal jeopardy are flashing red. His former lawyer and campaign manager are going to jail, the lawyer has implicated him in a federal crime, and now his CFO and the head of the National Enquirer have been given immunity to share what they know.”

“All of this goes WAY BEYOND beyond the Robert Mueller investigation. This is now in the hands of FEDERA PROSECUTORS, and they can keep going regardless of what happens with the Russia probe — including, possibly, digging into Trump’s business affairs.

Unlike Cohen, who was involved in quixotic projects and sleazy side deals to hush up women, Weisselberg has TRUE AND DEEP VISIBILTIY into the Trump Organization.”

Adam Davidson: “There are now multiple investigations of the Trump Organization being conducted by
the special counsel Robert Mueller,
the New York Attorney General,
The New York State Department of Taxation and Finance,
the Manhattan District Attorney,
the Southern District of New York,
and —quite likely— other jurisdictions.

"President Trump is unable to stop most of these investigations.

"With Cohen and, now, Weisselberg providing information, it is becoming increasingly certain that the American people will—sooner or later—have a far fuller understanding of how Donald Trump conducted business. That is unlikely to go well for him.”

What If It’s Not Collusion That Gets Trump?

Catherine Rampell: “As for the Cohen crimes that did directly implicate Trump — the campaign finance violations — the president and his people have argued that these are not actually crimes. After all, they’re so rarely prosecuted!

“What about tax crimes, though? There’s plenty of precedent for prosecuting those. And the Cohen filings this week raise serious new questions about whether Trump has criminal tax-fraud exposure.

“There’s an easy way for Trump to clear up these concerns: He could release his tax returns. Or maybe Congress could help a brother out and release his returns for him — which it could do by majority vote in any of three committees. That would, of course, require a Republican or two to ‘flip’ — which I know could pose a problem. As Trump and Capone could both tell you, the family doesn’t care for rats.”

Roger -

McCabe was fired and referred for criminal prosecution by the independent Inspector General. Bruce Ohr was demoted, as was Lisa Page, Peter Strzok, and others were demoted at the suggestion of leadership and directly because of independent reports. Page quit. So did others. Strzok was recently fired in lieu of the next Inspector General report due out.

All of that can be blamed entirely on incompetence, partisanship, and corruption. None of it can be blamed on Trump.

Let me repeat that: All of that can be blamed entirely on incompetence, partisanship, and corruption.

So again, Roger the Dodger... are you too stupid to put together these two situations and see the blatant hypocrisy?

Claiming that a bunch of people who have been fired and demoted should be "trusted" is one of your all time dumbest arguments.


But I guess that is the argument when you go senile and can no longer think for yourself.

not_a_dumbass said...

Your comprehension problem arises from your description of "the basic argument", which is so far from reality that it can only be from your own misreading of some moron conservative commentary, which itself was probably a slack-jawed rendering of something by McCarthy or Giuliani.

You don't even know what "the basic argument" IS so how can anyone explain it to you? You probably think that Cohen was tortured or blackmailed into his plea bargain. Halfwit fool.

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

The leadership of the investigations removed people who were possibly biased. They did that to avoid charges of bias and/ or Incompetence.

Strzok was recently fired in lieu of the next Inspector General report due out because of his inappropriate texts to the woman he had an intimate relationship.

No one blamed the President for this. Your beginning to exhibit mental dementia. Because you created that I blamed the President.

They were removed because their work would be perceived as be biased against your hero Donald Trump.

These FBI employees were fired or demoted "after" the investigations into the Clinton and Trump matters. Strzok was removed from the Mueller investigation, after Mueller realized that Strzok's indiscretions were going to be made public. But he was never removed from the FBI investigation.


So please, Roger. Show us that you can actually think... a little bit.

Explain to us what the difference is between paying for a non-disclosure agreement through a corporation, and reporting it as a Legal expense rather than a campaign expenditure.

vs

paying for opposition research through a corporation, and reporting it as a Legal expense rather than a campaign expenditure.


Explain to us (using your genius logic) why one is a crime and the other isn't?

Please don't pass it off as "some other experts have decided"... because nobody ever investigated the Steele dossier as a possible campaign violation. Hell, the FBI considered paying him themselves for more "opposition research".

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

Special counsel Robert Mueller, met with Steele to talk to him about the contents of the dossier he wrote.

Explain to us what the difference is between paying for a non-disclosure agreement through a corporation, and reporting it as a Legal expense rather than a campaign expenditure. My understanding of the campaign laws when directed by the Republican candidate to violate campaign law makes this illegal.

vs

paying for opposition research through a corporation, and reporting it as a Legal expense rather than a campaign expenditure. Opposition research is not illegal. If the source is disclosed as a campaign expenditure as required it is not a violation of campaign law.

I haven't seen any viable opinions that claim that the dossier was a campaign violation.

I just have to laugh at your deep state conspiracy theories. I actually believe that the FBI/DOJ and CIA are not filled with enemies of Trump.

Below is a statement issued by Senator John McCain on President Trump’s meeting with Vladimir Putin:

Today’s press conference in Helsinki was one of the most disgraceful performances by an American president in memory. The damage inflicted by President Trump’s naiveté, egotism, false equivalence, and sympathy for autocrats is difficult to calculate. But it is clear that the summit in Helsinki was a tragic mistake.

“President Trump proved not only unable, but unwilling to stand up to Putin. He and Putin seemed to be speaking from the same script as the president made a conscious choice to defend a tyrant against the fair questions of a free press, and to grant Putin an uncontested platform to spew propaganda and lies to the world.

“It is tempting to describe the press conference as a pathetic rout – as an illustration of the perils of under-preparation and inexperience. But these were not the errant tweets of a novice politician. These were the deliberate choices of a president who seems determined to realize his delusions of a warm relationship with Putin’s regime without any regard for the true nature of his rule, his violent disregard for the sovereignty of his neighbors, his complicity in the slaughter of the Syrian people, his violation of international treaties, and his assault on democratic institutions throughout the world.

“Coming close on the heels of President Trump’s bombastic and erratic conduct towards our closest friends and allies in Brussels and Britain, today’s press conference marks a recent low point in the history of the American Presidency. That the president was attended in Helsinki by a team of competent and patriotic advisors makes his blunders and capitulations all the more painful and inexplicable.

“No prior president has ever abased himself more abjectly before a tyrant. Not only did President Trump fail to speak the truth about an adversary; but speaking for America to the world, our president failed to defend all that makes us who we are—a republic of free people dedicated to the cause of liberty at home and abroad. American presidents must be the champions of that cause if it is to succeed. Americans are waiting and hoping for President Trump to embrace that sacred responsibility. One can only hope they are not waiting totally in vain.”


A great American.

Non traitors don't like the President.

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

You are making up violations of law. Even if your (opinion) that it was (funneled) through a corporation and invoiced as a legal expense demonstrate where it was a violation of campaign regulations or law.

Your very good at creating scenarios that distort situations to fit your opinions based upon your personal beliefs, but not based upon the facts or the law. Truth is what Trump says it is and you walk in step with him. You won't read what I will post from a lifelong Republican who shows how you and far too many Republicans have surrendered the party to the most corrupt individual in history to ever hold the office as President.

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

Senator Lindsey Graham, then in the House, went so far as to argue that “impeachment is not about punishment. Impeachment is about cleansing the office. Impeachment is about restoring honor and integrity to the office.”

All that has changed with Mr. Trump as president. For Republicans, honor and integrity are now passé. We saw it again last week when the president’s longtime lawyer Michael Cohen — standing in court before a judge, under oath — implicated Mr. Trump in criminal activity, while his former campaign chairman was convicted in another courtroom on financial fraud charges. Most Republicans in Congress were either silent or came to Mr. Trump’s defense, which is how this tiresome drama now plays itself out.

It is a stunning turnabout. A party that once spoke with urgency and apparent conviction about the importance of ethical leadership — fidelity, honesty, honor, decency, good manners, setting a good example — has hitched its wagon to the most thoroughly and comprehensively corrupt individual who has ever been elected president. Some of the men who have been elected president have been unscrupulous in certain areas — infidelity, lying, dirty tricks, financial misdeeds — but we’ve never before had the full-spectrum corruption we see in the life of Donald Trump.

For many Republicans, this reality still hasn’t broken through. But facts that don’t penetrate the walls of an ideological silo are facts nonetheless. And the moral indictment against Mr. Trump is obvious and overwhelming. Corruption has been evident in Mr. Trump’s private and public life, in how he has treated his wives, in his business dealings and scams, in his pathological lying and cruelty, in his bullying and shamelessness, in his conspiracy-mongering and appeals to the darkest impulses of Americans. (Senator Bob Corker, a Republican, refers to the president’s race-based comments as a “base stimulator.”) Mr. Trump’s corruptions are ingrained, the result of a lifetime of habits. It was delusional to think he would change for the better once he became president.

Some of us who have been lifelong Republicans and previously served in Republican administrations held out a faint hope that our party would at some point say “Enough!”; that there would be some line Mr. Trump would cross, some boundary he would transgress, some norm he would shatter, some civic guardrail he would uproot, some action he would take, some scheme or scandal he would be involved in that would cause large numbers of Republicans to break with the president. No such luck.

Roger -

Obviously you didn't read the actual indictments and plea agreement of Cohen regarding the campaign finance violations. He was charged personally for

1) knowingly going over the legal limits of $2700.
2) funneling the money through a corporation for payment.

The second part was it's own indictment and plea agreement. It's own separate count.

Moreover, the NY Fed Attorney Office is looking into the Trump Organization (who arranged the payment) for possible violations because they invoiced the expenses as "legal". That is what the Trump Organization is on the hook for.


So Roger - "I" do not have an "opinion" on this. The FUCKING INDICTMENT/Plea is what says Cohen committed a felony because he funneled a campaign related payment through a corporation.

let me repeat that again: The INDICTMENT/PLEA is what says Cohen committed a felony because he funneled a campaign related payment through a corporation.

Once more: The INDICTMENT/PLEA is what says Cohen committed a felony because he funneled a campaign related payment through a corporation.

You understand what an indictment is and how a Plea agreement works, correct??

What the fuck do you think Cohen was charged with?

I haven't seen any viable opinions that claim that the dossier was a campaign violation.


here's one:

"Washington attorney Cleta Mitchell is a partner in the Washington, D.C., office of Foley & Lardner and a bona fide legal expert on the thorny federal law of campaign finance."

Let’s start with the payments from the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) to Fusion GPS for the infamous dossier that triggered the entire Mueller investigation of “Russian collusion.” It is still not known how much the Democrats paid to Fusion GPS because that information has not been released, even though it was revealed almost a year ago that the source of payment was the Democrats. We should know the exact amount paid to Fusion GPS by the DNC and the Clinton campaign because all expenditures over $200 by parties and campaigns are required to be reported to the Federal Election Commission (FEC). However, the Democrats’ payments for the discredited dossier were falsely reported as “legal fees” paid to Perkins Coie, and not disclosed as to the actual vendor, amount, or purpose — as required by federal law. It is a federal offense to falsify an FEC report, which was obviously done in this case. Perhaps there is a conflict of interest for Mueller to investigate this matter, since it involves several of his own agents as potential witnesses, thus suggesting that the investigation of the Fusion GPS payments from Perkins Coie should be referred to the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, in the same manner that Mueller transferred the Cohen case to the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York.

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

A loan from a person or committee to a candidate or political committee is a contribution to the extent that it remains unpaid. Once repaid in full, a loan no longer counts against the contributor’s contribution limit. Unlike other loans, bank loans are not considered contributions if they are made in the ordinary course of business and on a basis that assures repayment.

A corporate vendor may extend credit to a political committee in the ordinary course of business and under substantially similar terms offered to a nonpolitical committee. However, it may not extend credit for a longer period of time than is normally practiced in the creditor’s trade. Any settlement of a debt between a creditor and a political committee for less than the full amount owed must comply with the debt settlement procedures prescribed by FEC rules.

When an individual uses personal funds (or personal credit) to pay for a campaign expense, that payment is generally an in-kind contribution from that individual.
