WASHINGTON — Two members of the Senate Judiciary Committee are moving to protect Special Counsel Robert Mueller's job, putting forth new legislation that aims to ensure the integrity of current and future independent investigations.
Republican Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina and Democratic Sen. Chris Coons of Delaware plan to introduce the legislation Thursday. The bill would allow any special counsel for the Department of Justice to challenge his or her removal in court, with a review by a three-judge panel within 14 days of the challenge.
The bill would apply retroactively to May 17, 2017 — the day Mueller was appointed by Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein to investigate allegations of Russian meddling in the 2016 election and possible ties between Russia and Donald Trump's campaign.

PING...
It’s well past time for this farce with Mueller to be snuffed out. What is POTUS waiting for??
The Obama-loving insurgency continues.....
Also known as “The Coup”......
Meaningless posturing by the Swamp Senate. The president would need to sign such legislation for it to take effect.
Veto
Undocumented Democrat
I’m sure many freepers gave money to pubs to get them elected....and this is what they do....
When people start worrying about someone getting fired it’s usually because they know the guy should be fired.
They probably hope so. Then, it will be more “proof” that CNN/CBS/ABC/NBC/Yahoo/etc. runs with.
Start with a false narrative, push it like madmen, then pretend outrage when sanity tries to prevail.
It’s the DNC / MSM way.
It was the reigning philosophy during the Obama years.
He did the same thing with Hillary, and now he knows who he can trust, who he can't and has made some adjustments, some we have liked some we haven't but we don't have the President's ear in the Oval Office to walk in and discuss these things with him, so he lets people have all the rope they need, and they hang themselves...I have seen this happen time and time again...
He will go through his agenda and do the work for the People like he promised and he is doing already...meantime these ‘idiots’ liars, crooks and thieves will gather more rope and then BINGO, they have hung themselves...
I am looking at this with Congress; Deep State; McTurtle; RINO RYAN; media; it is a relaxing story as he draws open the curtains when the rope has reached the end and there it all is, laying there for all to see...
Popcorn stock has risen since he announced he was running for POTUS...just thought I would let you know...
Effe Tommy Tillis aka ‘Rat ...
“Sen. Thom Tillis”
Thom? With a lisp?
They better be careful what they wish for,especially the rat snowflakes.
You should see them on any click-bait “hate Trump” article on Yahoo. It’s just the DU / Puffington Host.
These people have no logic, no reasoning, no facts. Just spout any liberal propaganda ad nauseum.
Well, after 8 years of lying Obama, we are not surprised.
True, but I guarantee that such a bill would pass both houses with a veto-proof majority. Such is the state of the slimy, Marxist left and the traiterous Republican party these days.
Anyone reading this needs to pray it does NOT pass...These RINOS are definitely not Trump supporters. This is wrong, because that group is ALL DEM SUPPORTERS in Mueller’s investigation....it needs to be destroyed!
traiterous = traitorous
Since I quit popcorn many moons ago, have to stick to red wine and dry deer sausage. I am having so much fun watching the swamp creatures out themselves one by one.
The Swamp is proceeding to get Trump bound and silent, and gone.
The FBI must be protected in order to force Trump to fire Mueller. Then Congress can unleash “obstruction of Justice” charges, in their effort to move toward impeachment.
Mueller has powerful backing and feels quite free, even emboldened, to brazenly front load his entire “investigative team” with NeverTrumpers. What other outcome is there with this lynch mob, but very bad news for Trump.
We can now safely call it a “Silent Coup in progress”, I should think.
