Not sure why this is being downvoted. It is abundantly clear that the special counsel is being extremely conservative with their indictments and claims so as to not create the opportunity for opponents to dispute the claims.
The issue of target vs subject is a technical one by the special counsel and is intentionally twisted by the conservative media. It's like in any other legal trial: a verdict of "not guilty" is not an affirmation that the defendant is innocent, but rather that the prosecution couldn't prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that the defendant was guilty.
Whereas most of SV embraces "move fast and break things", we should be thankful that the special counsel is not.
- creaghpatr 8y agoOn the other hand these indictments will never go to trial, and the defendants will not be convicted and/or punished, so it’s a little too conservative for now.
