Greg Craig Not Guilty

[Synthaholic]

sorry MAGA Morons. No Obama scalps for you!


Obama White House Counsel Gregory Craig acquitted on charges of lying to Mueller's team

Former White House Counsel Gregory Craig is in the clear.

Craig was found not guilty Wednesday on a felony charge of lying to the Justice Department about his work with the Ukrainian government. It marked the end of another case that stemmed fromformer Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation, and one of several DOJ crackdowns on foreign influence within the federal government.

Craig served as White House counsel during former President Barack Obama's first year in office, and then joined President Trump's ex-campaign chair Paul Manafort in 2012 on lobbying work for the Ukrainian government. Manafort pleaded guilty to charges relating to his lobbying work last September, but Craig wasn't similarly charged with failing to register as a foreign agent. He was accused of misleading the DOJ when it was investigating his work with Ukraine, presumably to avoid having to register as a foreign agent, per NBC News.

Plenty of more fish in that barrel and lots more crime to go around. I can only hope Craig spent lots of money on fellow lawyers.

Odd though that both Manafort and Craig did lobbying work for the Ukraine but only Manafort was charged with not registering as a foreign agent.
Selective enforcement of the law? Or just Robert "Captain America" Mueller's idea of fairness?

One is a member of the "right" political party. Different standards.

Must be the Deep State at work here.

You are right.

A retired Marine Corps General was trapped in a perjury trick by the FBI and was forced to hire lawyers who stripped him of everything he had and eventually pleaded guilty to bogus charges to avoid trial. He should have hired Greg Craig's lawyer.
