Mueller was so desperate to find a scapegoat for "Russian interference" that he sent staff to interview Maria Butina in jail, in January of this year. Of course, she had no knowledge of "collusion." But she's still sitting in jail, as a political prisonerhttps://spectator.us/maria-butina-crime-russian/ …

I’m incredibly disgusted by the journalists, such as
@7im of Rolling Stone, who assisted prosecutors in their vile quest to steamroll Butina. They hurled smears and wild theories about spycraft and “honeypots” that turned out to be total BS. Just parroting what they were fedShow this thread -
Tim hasn’t responded to me but guess what
@7im, your sleazy and sexist smears are on the record. “Femme fatale”? You should be ashamed of yourselfpic.twitter.com/p6Ca4fX62j

Maria has filed an appeal and started a defense fund: https://www.mariabutinafund.com/ Remember: not a spy, not a "honeypot," had nothing to do with "Russian interference," was subjected to months of solitary confinement, and most recently was shipped out to a remote jail in Oklahoma

I find this case so infuriating on so many levels -- utterly despicable conduct by prosecutors, the judge, and most egregiously the media -- that you'll have to excuse me if I extend this thread longer. Someone's life was destroyed based on a pack of lies. It's nauseating

Fundamentally this is about abusive, punitive state power being cynically wielded to satisfy a political vendetta. For “progressives” to have no concern at all is disgraceful. Republicans don’t seem to care much either. Butina has been completely abandoned. Cowardly and pathetic

I firmly believe that when historians analyze with critical distance the moral panic that has consumed American political and media consciousness since 2016, Maria Butina is going to be identified as one of its chief and most blatant victims

Can you imagine the screams of Russia collusion if he pardons an actual Russian?

It would be worth it just to watch their heads explode.

Her mind and entire physical being would burst into an etheric state of ineffable apotheosis depicted at the bottom most level of those brain expansion memes:pic.twitter.com/EiH2EDaogu

She seems pretty, and I don't know much about it but not surprised if there is an injustice being done here. The Russia xenophobia has become so toxic and unrelenting from the Left.

Yeah, I couldn’t imagine what the DNC propaganda machine (aka; the media) would do with the news of that pardon, no matter how well deserved it was...

How can Mueller sleep at night knowing he put an innocent in prison for political gain? The guilt would eat me alive!

Mueller sleeps fine after lying under oath to Congress about Iraq WMDs and getting 5000 American servicemen killed for his own personal gain. I don’t think one more victim matters to him.
