> [@Sinaptics](#): > > It’s just a generally good idea to not give additional ammunition when not necessary. Who knows, maybe there’s an email in there that says “Hey, wasn’t beating the shit out of that prostitute on Tuesday fun?” Not related to the matter at hand, but certainly trouble. This. Og only knows what else is in those emails that he would not want revealed, ever, to anyone. Some folks never get it that you should never put anything into email or online that you couldn’t survive being plastered all over the front page of your local newspaper. ---

Nunberg named both Trump & Stone were like fathers to him. He really knows how to pick 'em. The guy must have some serious daddy issues. ---

He said during one of the interviews something about all of the emails with Stone were the two of them discussing all of the people that they both hate. Methinks at the very least, Nunberg realizes that those emails being public burns every bridge he has. Ironic that Trumpworld is opposed to non-selective dumping of emails all of a sudden. ---

Butbutbut! Some of the investigation was _also_ leaked to the press by Democrats! Sure, that was leaking information to the American public, not giving information about an ongoing investigation directly to the subjects of that investigation, but I think we can all agree that BothSides! ---

Roger Stone was just interviewed on MSNBC. He was very specific in his denials, and very insistent that WIkileaks is a journalistic enterprise and in no way affiliated with a foreign power. And that working with them is no different than working with a newspaper. Link. > **[Donald Trump | Mediaite](https://www.mediaite.com/tag/donald-trump/)** > > Donald J. Trump was the 45th President of the United States. Prior to becoming a politician, Trump was an American businessman and a television personality. He was born on June 14th, 1946. He is married to Melania Trump and has five children. ---
