Mueller Indicted A Russian Company That Didn't Even Exist, Court Transcripts Say
U.S. Magistrate Judge G. Michael Harvey asked Eric Dubelier, one of two lawyers representing the accused Russian company, Concord Management and Consulting LLC, if he was representing a third company listed in Mueller's indictment.
"What about Concord Catering?" Harvey asked Dubelier. "The government makes an allegation that there's some association. I don't mean for you to – do you represent them, or not, today? And are we arraigning them as well?"
"We're not," Dubelier responded. "And the reason for that, Your Honor, is I think we're dealing with a situation of the government having indicted the proverbial ham sandwich."
"That company didn't exist as a legal entity during the time period alleged by the government," Dubelier continued. "If at some later time they show me that it did exist, we would probably represent them. But for purposes of today, no, we do not."

President Trump pledged on Sunday to help Chinese telecom giant ZTE return to business, days after the company said it would cease “major operating activities” because of the U.S. government’s recent trade restrictions, a stunning shift in tone for a president who has long accused China of stealing U.S. jobs.
“President Xi of China, and I, are working together to give massive Chinese phone company, ZTE, a way to get back into business, fast,” Trump tweeted. “Too many jobs in China lost. Commerce Department has been instructed to get it done!”

That was my favorite Trump campaign pledge, make sure there aren’t any job losses in Chinese manufacturing. I’m glad to see he’s following through.

I think it has if you count the FBI mole in Trump's election campaign.

Are you using "whataboutism" as a defense? Your type have been barfing that attack anytime Clinton or Obama are attacked by the other side. This is clearly an admission your side is on defense. We've got the ball, first and ten.

Mueller could find himself in big trouble.
The 13 people charged in the high-profile indictment in February are considered unlikely to ever appear in a U.S. court. The three businesses accused of facilitating the alleged Russian troll farm operation — the Internet Research Agency, Concord Management, and Concord Catering — were also expected to simply ignore the American criminal proceedings.
But that's not what happened.
Lawyers for Concord Management appeared and requested a speedy trial along with motions for discovery.
On Friday afternoon Mueller's team asked for a delay, but the Judge offered no explanation for her decision to deny a request prosecutors made to put off the scheduled Wednesday arraignment.
So the issue is now , Will Mueller turn over his investigation reports and records for discovery ? Or will he request that the case be dismissed ?
Because if he continues to delay the case , his mission could back fire on him.

Oh, hell no. Not a big fan of politicians on either side of the aisle. There are crooks in both parties.

nowhere special
The judge ruled no delay because Mueller should have been ready when he brought charges. Mueller got exposed for showboating for the publicity.
