Mueller is in possession of 87 electronic devices from Trump team

36 a month ago. And if I understand correctly 51 more since? So did they find something on the first 36 to be able to get 51 more? Didn't he just hire a computer crime expert?
Hmmm.... Can you just imagine all of the stupid shit that was said by all those stupid people on a whopping 87 devices? Holy shitholes that's gotta be one big electronic web of treason!

But most were probably smart phones.

Each one had emails from others that the sender may not have produced in response to subpoenas.

left leaning. I like him, I definitely would never consider him fake news or anything like that. He has been alot more careful about his sources over the last year.
I do take some if his opinion piece articles with a grain of salt, as sometimes they seem to be wishful thinking with facts sprinkled in.(I think these are one of the main reasons, members here have issues with him)
Last year he used a source (I believe it was Claude Taylor@truefactsstated) that had been tricked himself, he then immediately put out a statement he would no longer be using him or anyone in the Louise Mensch crew as sources I'm writing this from memory, so forgive me if I got anything incorrect, although I'm certain this is the jist of the story.

Mueller. The GSA had the computers and cell phones because they were provided to transition team. so, no subpoena by Mueller. He did subpoena emails which would be on flash drives.


http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/12/16/trump-lawyer-mueller-improperly-obtained-transition-documents-in-russia-probe.html

The transition attorney said the special counsel's office also received laptops, cell phones and at least one iPad from the GSA.

Trump for America is the nonprofit organization that facilitated the transition between former President Barack Obama to President Trump.

The GSA, an agency of the United States government, provided the transition team with office space and hosted its email servers.

Just because he writes speculative pieces doesn't make him wrong and when he has been wrong he's corrected. As far as I can tell he sites his sources so he is just as reliable as those sources. Last time I checked Rachel was a pretty reliable source.

So he's likely to perjure himself without even knowing it.
