from politics and a special federal statute that requires a federal judge in a death penalty case to assure that the death penalty isn t applied to bias on the basis of religion or national origin and trump talking about the isis flag, terrorism, all these things as part of his tweet is going to really make that finding much harder. it s going to make it harder. if you believe in the death penalty, the tweet makes it hard tore get the death penalty in the case. professor lit hahn, the concept of prejudicial pretrial pub lis if i is a novel idea with traction in the 1960s. the first case of proceedings i m an aware of 1950s in the brinks rob ration in boston and saturation nationally and the lawyers tried to get a change of venue. they didn t get anywhere. f. lee bailey, a boston lawyer, some years later used it successful pleading of prejudicial pretrial publicity. but the remedy has always simply
it s mueller s task to manage all of those different tracks. but you ll note that he s got something like 16 prosecutors working under him. my guess, they re assigned to teams and each one of those teams is working on a discreet issue or group of targets. and that they get together on occasion to make sure they re sharing all of the information and that they re working in tandem and coordinating each task in their case so it makes sense and it s improving the overall strategy. certainly some prosecutors will have to spend a lot of time working on the manafort and gates case preparing for trial you may note a note from the judge, they have time to focus their attention on other matter. curious about the may timeline. does that give hints at how long mueller s probe is going to take? i think it does. it s no surprise that this is a complex case that involves financial records from all over the world and i m sure the defense team needs time to
good or bad for the prospects of the tax bill that the president is leaving? i think it is good. it is good. let me back up, 86 you had ronald reagan and tip o neill, and dan rost enberg,enberg, and think that it is best for mitch mcconnell and paul ryan to do their things. you have kevin brady and mitch mcconnell and paul ryan and all of the leadership for the republicans up there making a case of it and maybe ten days to do their thing might be good for them. well, i think that the urgency for this has to come from the kopg, and the leadership has to come from congress to get it through, but i think that donald trump is not really a legislative president, and he is a culture war president and that is where the interest is and it is not to get all of the folks from capitol hill there to hammer it out, and he does not want to be there for that, and he wants to be there for the signing deal. that is it. and put the impetus on them. thank you for being with me

first tragedy, the first terror attack on his watch as president and he may have botched the prosecution. yeah, it s absolutely right. and, look, there s a very real chance that his comments about the bowe bergdahl case, for example, led to bergdahl getting the very light sentence he got today. he violated explain that. we know that to be true because the judge, right? yeah, because the judge talked about the defense made a big part of their tragedy. a thing called command influence. everyone in that chain of command from the prosecutor to the defense lawyers to the judge are all members of the military. all of eventually report to the commander in chief, donald trump. so through his comments, he has polluted the process and, you know, figured very heavily into defense motions that, because of that, bergdahl deserved a light sentence. the judge didn t explain why he did why he gave that sentence today but in the past few days talking about it he said he was going to take th
