You ever ask for a warrant on a former President? Why does that matter? Every talking head was making it clear to viewers/readers that if the FBI was able to secure a warrant to raid the home of an ex-President, then surely they had every box checked, every "i" dotted, and every "T" crossed. We were assured that this must have been approved at the highest levels of the FBI and the DOJ. Now, if this is the case, then why did they not go to the Federal Judge, but instead waited for Epstein's former lawyer, who's made anti-Trump social media posts, to come up on the rotation of Magistrate Judges, and then went and secured a warrant from this back bencher? If there's ample cause for the warrant, they shouldn't need to judge shop.

He's not "Epstein's former lawyer."
Memes are not news.

He's not "Epstein's former lawyer." Memes are not news. Care to correct me? Let me try again, while working to prosecute Epstein, he set up an LLC to open his own practice, using the same address as Epstein's lawyer, and then upon resigning as prosecutor, immediately began working for Epstein's accomplices. Is that about right?

He's not "Epstein's former lawyer." Memes are not news. The Miami Herald detailed this previously: Epstein also hired Bruce Reinhart, then an assistant U.S. attorney in South Florida, now a U.S. magistrate. He left the U.S. Attorney’s Office on Jan. 1, 2008, and went to work representing Epstein’s employees on Jan. 2, 2008, court records show. In 2011, Reinhart was named in the Crime Victims’ Rights Act lawsuit, which accused him of violating Justice Department policies by switching sides, implying that he leveraged inside information about Epstein’s investigation to curry favor with Epstein.
Reinhart, in a sworn declaration attached to the CVRA case, denied the allegation, saying he did not participate in Epstein’s criminal case and “never learned any confidential, non-public information about the Epstein matter.’’
The U.S. Attorney’s Office has since disputed that, saying in court papers that he did possess confidential information about the case. Contacted for this story, Reinhart, in an email, said he never represented Epstein — only Epstein’s pilots; his scheduler, Sarah Kellen; and Nadia Marcinkova, described by some victims as Epstein’s sex slave. Reinhart also pointed out that a complaint filed against him by victims’ lawyer Paul Cassell was dismissed by the Justice Department.archive.ph/noe0g#selection-3353.0-3365.342

Is that about right? Details are a buncha bullshit. Who paid the bills? Looks like a joint defense to me. Goes to work with Epstein's lawyer, who he was supposedly trying to prosecute, and represents his accomplices. That's a pretty shady deal, and likely a nice pay raise.

We'll see how it all shakes out.
People are always so mean to Trump, though. Everyone's out to get him.

Details are a buncha bullshit. Ok. So the Miami Herald says he worked for Epstein. Maybe he was only assigned to Epstein's accomplices. Do you think the episode -- where he is working one day to prosecute the guy, and the next day is working for his accomplices -- reflects on his character at all? I think it does.

You're asking the wrong person. I think that most lawyers are low-life scoundrels and that it is a largely dishonorable profession. (Present company excepted, of course!)

Well, if a Peter Strzok says it was by the book, who are we to argue?

Only the guilty invoke the 5th Amendment.

Is that about right? I think you are not correctly relating the facts about Judge Reinhardt and Epstein. I did a couple of minutes of research and found out of Epstein's employees Reinhardt represented was one of his pilots, Nadia Marcinko. According to Wikipedia Reinhardt got Marcinko immunity to testify against Epstein. I do not understand how a lawyer who worked to get testimony introduced against Epstein can be described as working in the interest of Mr. Epstein. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nadia_Marcinko
