Why is there no mention of the manafort indictment on the front page? It seems like there's something blocking all posts about this...
- burkaman 9y agoPeople really hate politics here. I would guess it's just organic flagging, nothing sinister.
- maxerickson 9y agoIt's also the sort of TV news that the guidelines recommend against. There's really not that much to discuss, pretty much just speculation about where it all ends up.
- heartbreak 9y agoOh good heavens there's plenty to discuss: http://www.dcd.uscourts.gov/sites/dcd/files/17-mc-2336_MEM_OP_REDACTED%20FOR%20UNSEALING_20171030.pdf http://www.dcd.uscourts.gov/sites/dcd/files/17-mc-2336_MEM_O...
- zie 9y agoHaving just read this, it seems to say the Special Prosecutor very directly says President Trump at the very least knowingly lied to the US Govt. about his relationships with Ukraine. Is that your understanding as well?
- heartbreak 9y agoYes I also think it’s incredible that the court was convinced by redacted evidence to allow Mueller to question Target A and Target B’s attorney.
- AlexandrB 9y agoFrom HN's posting guidelines: > Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. While this makes sense since this is not a political forum, I think the HN mods enforce this to a fault. Some political events are definitely big enough to warrant attention here.
- bryanlarsen 9y agoIt's likely not mods, it's likely just users hitting the 'flag' link. If it gets killed and you disagree with that, use the 'vouch' link to vote for bringing it back. Some basic level of karma is necessary for those two links to appear.
