Replying to @eorden
“Giuliani and Toensing are lawyers, to be sure,” prosecutors wrote. “But this Court has found probable cause that their devices and accounts contain evidence of specified federal crimes.”

Prosecutors also argued that affidavits supporting their 2019 search of Rudy's iCloud shouldn’t be revealed because “[a]lthough there has been public reporting about the existence of this investigation, much of the information set forth in the affidavits is not publicly known.”

She created her own personal cottage industry with hate for all things Clinton.

The Feds coming after her is some very special schadenfreude.

described another LOATHSOME Republican female we all know, with exacting accuracy in my choice of words.

I even got several compliments on my commentary for it being a dead on accurate use of perfect wording!

DU spanked me and blocked my commentary........

Therefore, in agreement with you, I chose not to describe this contemptuous female..............I hope you understand H20....

Why would it need to be said that lawyers are not above the law? Was it ever a question?

Are we on another planet all of a sudden?

Any one of us can go to our state website and find lawyers who have been reported for ethical or criminal violations, like stealing money from clients.

It's also a good way to continue to pressure a few people who will soon be entertaining a grand jury with their flips-for-deals.

... speeches in front of a crowd of mouth breathing MAGA idiots. Rudy, Donny, and Victoria are in a world of hurt
so who is gonna flip first?

Prosecutors also argued that affidavits supporting their 2019 search of Rudy's iCloud shouldn’t be revealed because “[a]lthough there has been public reporting about the existence of this investigation, much of the information set forth in the affidavits is not publicly known.”
