The Special Counsel went there

[SHRED]

Very astute observation by Tea Pain here.

1. I read the statement and don't think you have to be astute to figure that out.

2. Get thee to the greatest page

4. I haven't kept up with the news or been on DU much for the past week.

What is the statement and where can I go to read it?

Thanks in advance!

5. Here's the quote

Peter Carr, Special Counsel spokesman:
“When we have obtained emails in the course of our ongoing criminal investigation, we have secured either the account owner’s consent or appropriate criminal process.”

If you click on the link in the OP, it's repeated there numerous times. And kinda fun to read through all the other comments.

[Control-Z]

6. Now it makes sense!

Thank you, blaze.

[gristy]

7. Yes, great comments on the twitter link.

Hundreds of them. DU on steroids.

[blaze]

10. Does a heart good, doesn't it? nt

[Amaryllis]

15. SAme here. I was just about to ask the same thing. No news for two days and i've missed a bunch.

[Control-Z]

16. Yes, and part of me felt as though I'd neglected my civic duty

of keeping up with everything that is going on at every moment of every day! Lol.

[Amaryllis]

17. Impossible, even if you never slept, worked, etc.. There is simply too much happening too fast!

Fortunately we can always come here to find out what happened in the 24 hours we were news-free.

[FailureToCommunicate]

21. "News free" sounds like a balm of Gilead. But yes, we can come to DU and catch up...

thankfully.

[mountain grammy]

8. That is impressive.

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

9. Anyone know who or what TeaPain is?

Is it a person or a group?

[Nevernose]

11. Honestly not sure

They’ve got a book for sale on Amazon, though.

I’ve been considering it, but it’s Christmas time and my stupid “family” wants “presents” for “themselves” so I have to “think about others.” It’s a whole bunch of new terminology I’m not familiar with, probably because of PC snowflakes.

12. Thomas Elmer Addison Pain

Faithful Foot Soldier of the #Resistance

one of a dozen or so folks on twitter I follow

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

13. Thank you.

[GreenEyedLefty]

19. With a wonderfully apt name... I think of Thomas Paine

whose pamphleteering led this country to Revolution.

[miyazaki]

18. Well there's a rapper named T-Pain.

Pretty sure it's not this guy though,

[L. Coyote]

14. "our ongoing criminal investigation ...."

Meanwhile, there is an ongoing 1.5 TRILLION $$$$$ Treasury heist in progress!

[FailureToCommunicate]

22. True. Too many balls in the air.

[Plucketeer]

23. First they'll empty the vaults

Then they'll privatize the facilities and offer the wealthy a secure place to stash their loot. That way it (the cash) will never really have to leave in the first place!

24. Lock them up!

[ret5hd]

25. Funny comment from the twitter page:

Sometime soon, at a prison to be determined, "pass the Kush" will have two entirely different meanings.

[dchill]

26. No collusion, no collusion.

Criminal, criminal.
