It doesn't do any good. As a long time public defender used to remind me: "Their best thinking landed them in jail."

Under the section "Ready for some sexxxxxxy [REDACTED]?" there exists the phrase:

With respect to the first, sort of, subtopic here, the discussions concerning the some blacked out text here

Ukraine, we were talking about ...

While Wonkette hypothesizes that the blacked out text contains "plan for", I note instead that the monospace (fixed width) font makes it easy to count that there are exactly 18 characters missing. Curiously, my first guess upon reading the redacted statement was for a phrase that, it turns out, consists of exactly 18 characters.

I'm willing to bet that that redacted text does not include the phrase "plan for" but instead reads "quid pro quo in re", as in:

With respect to the first, sort of, subtopic here, the discussions concerning the quid pro quo in re Ukraine, we were talking about ...

What do y'all think?

So the choice are:more intentionalnot more intentionalless intentional

Do I have that right? So are they trying to go for that solid legal argument that they only sort of wanted to murder the victim? You know, conceding that he really kind of meant to, but only maybe half way, so, you know, it was not entirely INtentional, so give him some credit for not really entirely wanting to murder the victim?

You know what I think? Manafort is still way more ascared of all the really nasty things Putin can do to him and everyone he knows, including Trump, the family, and all the Republicans, that he is never going to stop doing whaterverthefuck he can to try to worm out of all kinds of shit.

A family member is in a spot of bother with the constabulary after he found out an ex-GF had moved to South Crackle-acky and married a gentleman of darkish hue. His response? Send a series of threatening letters via USPS, naturally.

He put his return address on the letters
