Panic Time! Turkey Launches Investigation Into Preet Bharara As Zarrab Debacle Spirals Out Of Control

Turkey is going to go ahead and turn the absurdity knob up to a Spinal Tap-ish "11" in light of what certainly appears to be an effort on the part of U.S. authorities to flipĀ Reza Zarrab, a former gold trader who stands accused of participating in a plot to evade sanctions on Iran. Earlier this month, Zarrab disappeared from the Metropolitan Correctional Center and according to multiple sources, is now cooperating with prosecutors. It's unlikely theĀ  cooperation is tied to co-defendant Mehmet

  1. This is like reading a slowly unfolding crime drama, maybe hearkens back to the old Sat afternoon pulp fictions. I can’t wait for the “courtroom scene!”

      1. Here’s an interesting piece of prose:

        “Trump is no malfunction. He’s a perfect representation of who, as a country, we are and always have been: an insane monster. Frankly, we’re lucky he’s not walking around using a child’s femur as a toothpick.

        When it’s not trembling in terror, the rest of the world must be laughing its ass off. America, land of the mad pig president. Shove that up your exceptionalism.”

        Muprh, you’ll enjoy this one:

        1. omg that was exceptional! and I ate an entire box of cheeze its while reading it! and worth every ounce!! More than once laughed out loud for real and slammed my hand on table a couple of times too!

          Here’s a couple everyone will enjoy. This is trump’s mentor. As you read it you will clearly see how similar they are — I can only pray trump ends up just like this guy, former president of Panama, Ricardo Martinelli. Martinelli was arrested in Miami by U.S. Marshals on June 12, 2017 to face extradition to Panama; currently detained at the Federal Detention Center in Miami.

          Even more visible in this, his good friend Martinelli

          I’m printing that cartoon drawing of trump; hanging on door for dart target! šŸ™‚

    1. As much as it is interesting seeing all the pieces fall into place, I can’t wait for the end and the downfall of that prick in the Oval Office.

      1. I totally agree! When I saw this program last night I was outraged! The link I sent above I just realized is only the first half — there are several more that follow this one and they fall in line automatically if you just let it run – Engel refers to ‘coming right back’ each time. Maybe 4 more, or 5? Average of the others is about 3 min. But until you see the rest, thru the end when he clearly concludes the entire program, you have not seen the worse yet. So, please go back and watch the rest if you did not already. trust me on this, watch it.

        I am even more furious that he took the office of president and how he did it.

          1. It is indeed! Excellent find!

            the good part of Engel’s presentation was when he said there was so much interest in this story, there was an investigation beginning. trump belongs in prison. He knows exactly what is going on. I fully believe that Mueller also knows and will put it all together and tie a nice knot around it.
