NEWS on Mueller/Trump attorney meetin'
1) Tea Pain has heard from two sources that the meetin' between Trump's attorney and Mueller's team did take place Thursday evenin'. The meetin' lasted till almost 8 pm EST.
2) Accordin' to one source, there was no "letter of exoneration" given and that Trump is naturally upset.
3) The report states that Trump's attorneys, Ty Cobb and John Dowd could be heard havin' a "shoutin' match" in the parkin' garage.
4) Please take into consideration these are unofficial reports. There is zero information comin' from Mueller's team, as usual. Mueller is the commensurate, disciplined professional.
5) If these reports are accurate, it would explain why Trump opted for a no-questions, low-key signin' of his only "accomplishment" this mornin' before departin' for refuge at Mar-a-Lago.
6) Once Trump is at Mar-a-Lago and safely in his own bubble of lap-dog support, expect insane tweetin' to commence. <eot>

(1,660 posts)Far as I can tell, you're just two guys on the internet. He bills himself thusly:
Born Thomas Elmer Addison Pain - July 4th, 1976
Gizzard Ridge, AR
Whis is, of course, bullshit.
He has had consistently good sources in the months I've been following him. This time he tweeted a request for anybody who had info about the meeting, to DM him. Apparently this is the result. Note also that he (says he) used two sources, presumably independent DMs.
Give him whatever value you wish. I'm sure he does the same for you and me.

(3,827 posts)I mean you could be on DU pretending to be a Dem supporter - No one would know unless you revealed who you were.

(1,660 posts)You pretend to be you, he pretends to be him. It's almost like real life, except not.

(14,312 posts)This account and a few others have been pretty accurate in the past, on backstory and details if not on timing of upcoming events.
For the record, nobody I know has been able to predict timing of Muellers upcoming actions. I think there are still late deals being made, some of which might affect timing. Mueller works on his own schedule. All we get are crumbs like these.

They seem to have a proven track record of talking out of school. I have no knowledge of the source but we should recognize the behavior. These are a couple guys more willing to be risk overheard by the public vs being sure of being overheard by the boss.
All IMHO.
