This is a high priority for Grassley I guess.

Not approving nominees for open positions or dealing with foreign policy issues.

Grassley is a far greater threat to Trump’s presidency than any Democrat. Trump needs the freedom to hire and fire his own people, but Grassley is holding him hostage. He has said that if Sessions is fired Trump will never get another AG confirmed.

Iow, Grassley believes *he’s* the real POTUS. He’s as big a disgrace as Sessions—two peas in a pod.

Has AN (R)N(C) ‘reminded’ this over-paid, dip-shit re: Constitution\separation of powers??

I’ve NEVER seen a party do so much to turn people away from the polls in an upcoming election.

Grassley blames Feinstein for delaying bill to protect Mueller

Grassley is a horse’s ass looking for a little publicity. Making him out to be more stupid than he really is...maybe.🐂💩 Such a measure is beyond stupid and would have zero chance of implementation.

Another loser RINO? Will the herd be culled anytime soon?

Mueller does not NEED protection. He is a criminal.

Every couple of decades, a Dem does better than a Pubbie.

In 2001-2 it was Senator Robert Byrd who stopped an amnesty bill on a technicality.

I am with DiFi on this one. What was Grassley thinking? Or was he?

Grassley is calling the dems bluff - he has been on point lately working on the intelligence reports on the FISA abuses.

Mueller coming up with nothing is the best case scenario for Trump, and Mueller has nothing. He won’t snare Trump, you don’t become a self made multi Billionaire by being an stupid.

DiFi knows the anti-Trumpers in the Senate don't have the votes for this (GOPe snakes would vote for it in a heartbeat, but they're too afraid of the base blowback) - so she wants a delay to try to round up more support. Grassley ALSO knows the votes aren't there, and is shining a spotlight on who's responsible for the holdup.

Grassley is a canny old buzzard, and WAY more reliably supportive of the President than most in the Senate. He's not exactly a member of the base, but as close as they come in D.C.

This seems kinda silly but I think is in his own weird way Grassley is trying to help. I believe he fears Trump may pull the trigger on Mueller and that it could be the final straw.

The fact that DiFi is holding this up makes me feel this even more. Dems need the firing to set any obstruction charges off. Of course, its not obstruction but at that point its beyond a legal argument and fully political.
