Judge Janine was asking a couple of Republican Congressmen about this but they did not have any info on it yet. It will probably take a few days for all the info to come out on this story.

Sounds like Team Trump is pulling the pieces together for the DOJ/FBI Inspector General to find corruption and illegal activities in the Mueller investigation.

I can see Mueller being publicly suspended for cause, followed by the filing of criminal charges against Mueller or at least much of his staff.

I wonder if Mueller is feeling the noose tightening around his political neck?

“As I understand the transistion stuff was acquired in August of this year...August was also when Super Agent Peter Stroznk (or whatever his name is) was dismissed from the investigation? Perhaps the super agent got ahold of the goodies from the GSA and that is the reason he was demoted and not the salicious texts.”

If this stuff has been in big bobby mueller’s possession since august, there's not anything in them, since if there were that info would have been leaked to cnn long ago.

They have surely already been used to direct more digging.

Can’t wait for Trump to say, “You’re fired!”

Maybe the Trump team should have had their own email server in the basement bathroom and a bunch of blackberries they could have smashed with a hammer. /s

I would agree with that. They can always seem to make a silk purse into a sow’s ear. And as long as the public is stupid enough to think the sky is falling, it will continue. Only difference is that chicken little didn’t do it on purpose. And the whole thing is to make the Trump presidency seem emberable and dirty. Next election is three years away and they will waste no time with it.

But there is one thing about all this I think would help. Make any investigation public when completed, and make any news source statement, public with who they got it from verification. And hold them responsible for their actions. If it was legit, they have no fear. If it wasn’t, they can be in fear of the public or a lawsuit as applied. Make them responsible for their action. And then we’ll see what is on the up and up and what is a lie to get Trump, a sitting POTUS. Roll the dice.

Some of the things they have they’ve had since mid 2015 when they first started investigating him. They’re not concerned with what they have. They are only concerned with what they can make out of it with more trash as they have decided what they have has not done enough damage. If you buy a blue widget, and it doesn’t get the job done, you don’t go looking for another blue widget. But that first sale might lead you to the widget factory so you can buy all the colors one at a time to see which one will get the job done.

But as long as they are priced to buy, they can afford them. Make them accountable for their buys and sells and they won’t be able to afford them.
