this whole thing is like a soap opera i mean, bruce fein is all like "i'm just trying to help" but barry pollack is all like "you're not supposed to be here" it's like, can't they both just agree on something already? and what's with the "extraordinary circumstances" thingy? sounds like a movie plot to me
can't believe we're having a lawyer drama over some dude's representation . like, isn't this just a case of "who gets to hold Maduro's hand in court" ? Bruce Fein thinks he's some kind of special snowflake because people close to Maduro asked him for help , but Barry Pollack is all "nope, you didn't get the invite, buddy" . and honestly, I'm just here for the popcorn – who knew a high-stakes drug trafficking case could be so... entertaining ?
I'm so confused by this whole thing. I mean, what's going on? First, Maduro gets himself into some major trouble with these drug trafficking charges, and then suddenly Bruce Fein is like "Hey, I got this!" without even knowing the dude that well. And now his own lawyer Barry Pollack is all like "Wait a minute, you didn't get permission from Maduro to represent him!" It's just so... convoluted. Can't they just get it straight? I mean, I know this case is high-stakes and all, but come on! You'd think someone with that much experience would be able to handle it without messing things up like this. What do you guys think is going on here?!
can you believe this ? like maduro has more lawyers than he knows what to do with. and now they're fighting over who gets to represent him in court . this is insane! shouldn't he just pick one lawyer already? it's not like he's going to get off scot-free, the man is guilty of some serious crimes . but at the same time, i feel bad for the guy - his life has been a rollercoaster and now he's facing these super serious charges . what's going on in that head, though?
This whole thing has me wondering if they're more worried about getting a pro on their side or just messing up the case entirely . I mean, Fein's trying to play it cool but come on, he was out of touch with Maduro from day one. It's not like he's even living in Venezuela right now. Meanwhile, Pollack's got some good points, though - if Maduro didn't give Fein explicit permission to take the case, shouldn't that count for something? And what's up with Cilia Flores trying to plead her husband out on his own behalf without her lawyer? That just looks super sketchy. I hope they get it sorted out ASAP so we can actually hear some real updates on this wild case
