@ZoeTillman @emptywheel (1 of 3) Ok, under US law,a mistrial means a new trial may be permissable?

Do we know if conditions allowing a new trial are met or not?

Eg
<A 2nd trial may be permitted where a mistrial is the result of “manifest necessity,”as when,for example, the jury cannot reach a verdict> @ZoeTillman @emptywheel (2 of 3)
law.justia.com/constitution/u…

I ask especially, as the Calk related charges in the latter part of 2016, & early 2017, have no verdict ?

Those charged have clear entanglement with the the Trump: Campaign, Transition & Admin

Timing, the article lent a degree of "forward credibility" to Mensch, as it was published just _b4_ the election

Interesting that she links to the MotherJones article we now know to be from Steele

But overall a misleading article, so a distraction

Bryan McDonald of RT harvesting the useful idiots: rt.com/op-ed/434846-t…

Note the overlap in Mr Greenwald's harvesting:

Problem is the useful idiots are now basking in the glory of the Kremlin attack

Trump is an open book, I think it's reasonable to link his poor performance in Helsinki with his private meeting (exit photo below)

Putin pushed him hard, did he mean to shove him over the edge ? I speculate that Putin merely intended to dominate & own Trump to temporarily paralyze matters

Putin has since been on a whirlwind tour of diplomacy, whilst the US is "fully down" (mixed messaging, no Helsinki readout)

What divided is Putin seeking here in the short term ?

See,this is where things're going wrong,the most popular person Twitters shows me as weighing in on the "smell guy's colon" gag, doesn't seem to understand,that it is a gag

Or...she could do(note the suspended account @JoeyKingActress)

#ProblemOfSimplisticPopularity
#TechFog Issues:
1) she may have been doing a sassy meta-play, the suspended account makes this hard to readily analyse
2) as such, that meta-play, would have fooled others into thinking the original gaggers, were not in fact intentional gaggers
...etc

(1 of 3) Carter Page was egregiously obvious as a Russian asset,if TeamTrump were good at being bad,then those would be good uses for him: 1) Social temperature check:do people,the media etc, raise the alarm ?

2) Counter-intell: he could be a mere pointless distraction,&also a canary,to discern CI competence/interest

(1 of 2) Carter Page FISA highlights, (2 of 2) source: nytimes.com/2018/07/21/us/…

My commentary: no material new information, but it shows the FBI handled Chris Steele properly

Confirmation that they paid him, is going to cause an outcry of stupidity

Syria is important, & yes, Obama messed up

But all types, knowingly malign, & useful idiots, have seen to it that the strategic importance of Syria has been vastly over hyped

It continues to be,e.g. even say by ostensible Bibi opponents: haaretz.com/israel-news/.p… Also I specifically noticed an upper end influence campaign on LinkedIn in 2016, targetting US Military & their community by extension
