      1. The government itself owns patents on aspects of THC for medical purposes. All they do is lie and lie and lie.

  4. Catherine,
    It is very peculiar to me that Flynn’s attorneys thought that it was a good idea for him to speak with Mueller. Given the anti-Russian climate, the personnel involved in the investigation, Flynn’s work in intelligence, Flynn’s lack of actually committing an illegal act besides lying, and Flynn supposedly lying to the VP which led to his ouster, there was a ton of downside to talk with Mueller/FBI and no upside from what I can see looking at this from the outside. The only time to talk with the police is if you think they will give you a fair shake and you are innocent of wrongdoing or if you’re guilty, you may talk, if you thought it would help you getting a better plea deal. That’s it. It looks like he paid a lot of money for bad advice, unless he is just falling on the sword to protect someone. This investigation is bazaar. Comey, Mueller, McCabe, Rosenstein……something is really wrong with this bunch. Clean house, Trump.

    1. I agree.

      He is represented by Covington & Burling https://www.cov.com/en/professionals/k/robert-kelner

      My biggest problem during my litigation was having 1 of three law firms/attorney whose loyalties were not to me. They worked for the insurance company who was dirty. Had to pay my general counsel to police and had to hire an attorney to watch insurance company. Loyalities to the swamp run deep.

      I suspect Martha Stewarts lawyer may have set her up.

      This is why in the future I will always represent myself with attorneys as consultants. No one is authorized to sell me down the river without my knowledge or approval.

      “If only half of you motherf–ckers in the state attorney generals office didn’t want to be judges, didn’t want to be partners in a downtown law firm; if half of you had the f–cking balls to follow through, you know what would happen? A guy like that would be indicted, tried and convicted and the rest of them would back up enough so we can push a clean case or two through your courthouse. But, no, everyone stays friends. Everyone gets paid. Everyone has a f–cking future.” ~Detective Jimmy McNulty in Season 1 of “The Wire:”

          1. Buy why? Who told him it was safe to do? Something does not make sense. I would love to have copies of phone transcripts and the meeting transcripts.

        2. Firms are on both sides. Sometimes it depends on your relationships. That said, I would never trust C&B in this situation.

          1. Good questions. It’s interesting to me that, for now, Obama’s name, is not being mentioned in all of this. It would be hard to believe that he is innocent in all of this.

            I also wonder why McCabe and Rosenstein have not been removed. At the very minimum, that have massive conflicts of interest. Why has Trump been relegated to just tweeting about these type of things? He’s obviously aware of this chicanery. Is he waiting for the right timing? I don’t know. From the outside, it’s very odd to be watching the head of the executive branch complaining about his subordinates in public and yet he takes no apparent action.

            Why hasn’t Sessions shut down Mueller? It’s an obvious dead end; meanwhile obvious serious crimes by Clinton have not been really investigated. Control files?

          2. Right now the whole thing smells. Serious story in the WSJ so far is that Mueller’s probe so far has cost $3.2 MM. That is a sign that they are going to go after. Followed up by WSJ indicating he should resign. Manafort was not well done. Flynn is a travesty. It is going to infuriate a lot, lot, lot of really fine people. DOJ is making it impossible for someone to hold a senior position in Washington just as their prosecution of Howard Root proves they are making it impossible for anyone to run a company. They are destroying the economy. No law, no economy. Just government money and enforcement. Stalin time.

  7. There wa s a request for Neighborhood Risk to be addressed beyond perhaps the Control 101 offering.

    I used to meet at a small business co-located with a residential home and a couple of business buildings. The biz and family had been meeting neighbors and the church to develop a stronger culture. The meetings I was attending were relevant to the area culture….resilience for peak yada yada yada. Their experience was that:
    Neighbors have synergy, work the relationships, share talents, help each others projects and build the culture you want and there is less room for the crack houses. Elders garden but need help, young want to garden. I’ll follow the food movement with yard and neighborhood gardening and any stand out skills the residents want to share….just brainstorming.

    1. Yes! Now that we have addressed Control 101. now we need to look at how to reverse the drain at the local level.
