Nunberg totally contradicts himself during Katy Tur interview. Listen.

During the middle of the interview when Tur asks him when he decided not to comply, he said as soon as he got the subpoena. He said he didn't even bother going through his emails, he just thought it was ridiculous and wasn't going to spend 80 hours going through them (a ridiculous statement in and of intself...just use "Search by..." ). But then, at the end of the interview, when asked again about if anything happened that made him decide he wouldn't comply, he said he had been going through his emails and realized how time consuming it was, and that's when he decided he wasn't going to do it.

Which is it, Sam? Did he go through emails or not? And why? Mueller demanded all of them. No need to even bother looking at them. It sounds to me like he was going through them and realized there were so many incriminating communications that he was going to take his chances.

He sure sounds like a very guilty man.

He repeatedly said he would not help bring down Roger Stone. Some serious bromance going on there if he's willing to go to jail for either Stone or Bannon.

Never heard 30 hours, but I might have missed it. Either way, doing a search for "Roger Stone" shouldn't take long at all.

Mueller: "OK, here's a warrant for all your stuff. I'll pick out the relevant bits myself. And here's your jail cell for putting me through the trouble."

(That's not a real quote BTW)
