A judge won't name the foreign government company that tried to fight the Mueller investigation

While Mueller’s office is winding up its work, prosecutors from the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Washington are now handling the grand jury fight, which has led to the company being held in contempt and assessed a fine of $50,000 a day.

At a hearing last week, Assistant U.S. Attorney David Goodhand told Howell that the grand jury investigation is “continuing robustly.” He did not elaborate.“The need for secrecy is heightened during an ongoing investigation and warrants redactions to preserve grand jury secrecy,” the judge wrote.on the grand jury showdown last October, when virtually all aspects of the litigation were shrouded in mystery, but signs pointed to Mueller’s involvement. After the dispute escalated to the D.C.

However, the identity of the country that owns the company has never been made public. The judge’s opinion is largely silent on whether that detail should remain under wraps, but she refers to the nation in question as “Country A,” suggesting she’s content to allow continued speculation on that point as well.

TioSantiagoG The country that is -

TioSantiagoG I read it’s Qatar.

Does the Trump administration count as a foreign government?

Seriously?!?

I’m just going throw this out there. How about the Ramjac Corporation?

Trump appointed judge?

SethAbramson Any guesses, twitterverse?

Yet.

Two tiered judicial system

They have pending indictments. Reason.

shareitarie10 We'll find out one way or another. Especially if Manaforts stupid friggin attorney knows. After all, didn't he tell us Manafort was peddling presidential election polling information? They're all in up to their necks. One of them will give it up. Hard to remember the last lie!

😲

Just the very idea that any foreign govt. would try to fight an important federal investigation in the U.S. is mind-boggling to me. WTH?!

Good lets get a resolution for once without the detrimental speculation journalism that is becoming the norm in this country raising tensions & which could ultimately depress votes with disappointment in factual outcomes.

They will be named in time.

All of this is ridiculous

Acme Corp. That damn coyote again.

Hmmm... Seems I saw in in-depth segment on this just last night on TV... 🤔

SethAbramson This is getting ridiculous. We are supposed to live in a democracy where citizens have a civic duty to be informed. We can't see the Mueller report. 90% of Mueller's court docs were redacted secret. It's outrageous that this entire subpoena fight is secret ReleaseTheReport

Trump’s going to pardon everyone. Release the name. It won’t matter.

I think it’s the Canadian company that bailed out Kushner 666 property with help of Qatar

Name them we the people have the right to know.

SethAbramson slpng_giants needs to know

To be fair: he doesn’t speak Russian.

yeah they will.

Alpha?

Well of course not! As the prosecution team who got this case from Mueller has stated in open court ' the grand jury is still on going ' Robustly '! The judge cant release the info on an ongoing investigation!

Why because trump told him not to

And no one knows how to hack a file to get these details? Really disappointed in US citizen cyber justice forces

Because the investigation is ongoing. Come on,

ReleaseTheFullMuellerReportNOW

SethAbramson I find it difficult to believe that any German or British company has this kind of political clout in the US, so... Black Cube? Psy-Group? Terragence?

This is almost as bad as letting Russia help the Orange Assmonkey get elected!

JoyAnnReid I'm guessing a company somewhere.n China? Lol hwmnylx69 maddow

Still a robust grand jury?

JoyAnnReid Money is on Cambridge Analytica myself

Why doesnt the headline read something like Grand Jury is still robustly active therefore the information needs to remained sealed?

Is the judge getting kickbacks to protect the idiot and his foreign friends ?

SethAbramson Qatari Investment Fund.

JoyAnnReid And until then, no one sees the Mueller report.

Let’s see.... Russia? cnni BBCWorld billmaher tictoc MotherJones nytimes AP MMFlint Lawrence

JoyAnnReid Does Cyprus own *that* bank?

I'm pretty sure it wasn't the Montreal Canadiens.

Maybe the Israeli foreign government company that did 9/11/2001.

Shall I say it....Deutchebank

I suspect it's because there are other investigations going on that involve that bank & they don't want those criminals to suddenly shift all their money.

JoyAnnReid It must be a rich one $50,000 per day is the fine.

SethAbramson More important: ongoing grand jury proceedings can be leveraged to block release of full Mueller report to the House

Your chosen words “foreign government company” makes me think of Israel first and foremost because Politico has been pretty good about accuracy in reporting there was no collusion between Trump and Putin.

JoyAnnReid waiting patiently!

SethAbramson we'll find out what country and what business this is!!

SethAbramson WE the People need to know who is Trying to undermine Our Country! Just a guess, RUSSIA

Ugh every person with common sense

JoyAnnReid

Hmmmmmmm.

JoyAnnReid Wow all 25 mins of Rachel’s A block in one headline.

The smart money was on Deutsche Bank, but given that they're now happily answering congressional subpoenas - I'm no longer sure.

JoyAnnReid It’s all too super secret for us, we are just the children.

Yeah, whatever did happen to that?;?

Looking forward to the Mueller report exposing dems.

Which government do you think is behind this? My top 5: 1. Russia; 2. Ukraine; 3. Britain; 4. Israel; 5. Saudi Arabia

JoyAnnReid ARAMCO?

The Clinton Foundation!!

Because the grand jury is still functioning in a robust way. Say that too.
