Rosenstein advised Trump he should fire Comey.
So where is the obstruction charge?

Mueller simply “wraps up” deep-state/democrat/media “Russia collusion” fantasy, and 18 Month non-stop, multi-front political attack?

Not a chance.

“Mueller’s team may be able to close the obstruction probe”

Wait; I thought it was, all along, a Russian collusion probe. So confused.

Rosenstein wrote the memo justifying Comey’s dismissal.

Done and Done.

If Mueller cannot get any traction without a Trump interview, he not only sucks as an investigator; he has nothing. It says his only lever is to set a perjury trap and pressure the target(s). It says he has nothing substantive. He has access to every nosehair of Trump and if after all that he cannot get anywhere, then he is a chickens**t.

This unjust, slow-motion Kangaroo Court must end.

or, the nonrefusable offer

“I told you before that one day I would ask you for a favor. Now is that time.

Please end your charade before I find it necessary to destroy you and all your family”

Nope, this will continue until 2020 or 2024. The goal is to generate as much negative publicity as possible in order to get a Democrat in the White House.

Mueller’s office supposedly doesn’t leak...

My morning juice shot out of my nose at this one...

if Mueller no longer has to wait around for answers from him, there’s nothing stopping him from wrapping up his obstruction report now.

What's stopping him from wrapping up his investigation is the fact that the mid term elections are still 7 months away. His "explosive findings" and "damning" report will be released in late October.

I would chuckle if Trump tweeted the bill for Mueller’s legal ‘work’ and empty prosecution. This debacle should cost the taxpayers NOTHING!

Trump also asked Comey to investigate the claims in the dossier.

That also diminishes any possibility of an obstruction charge.

Even if trump did it on his own... It’s his right to do so.

If “obstruction” is all Mueller comes up with, then it means he found nothing. You will NEVER get 67 senators to vote to remove a President solely for a process violation like Obstruction if there is no underlying crime that goes hand in hand with the Obstruction charge.

Since Sessions is not a party to all of this having recused himself on day one, it follows that he should be the one to fire Rosenschmeckel. The problem is, he’s disloyal to the President and probably would refuse to do it. It looks as though the senior staff at the DOJ are all anti-Trump, so getting someone in charge who isn’t is a major problem, and you can bet that the Senate would sit on it’s hands if Trump sent them an AG replacement to vet and approve. So Trump is in a box until Mueller goes away. But when he’s finally out of the picture, you are going to see a bloodbath at the DOJ and FBI, because I see Trump as one who never forgets who’s tried to screw him.

The White House is preparing talking points designed to undermine Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein's credibility

How can you undermine something that doesn't exist?

I’m wondering if this is fake news. Mueller has been pretty much of a bulldog on this. Now he just walks away having accomplished, for all intents and purposes, nothing?

Sounds kinda fishy to me.

dgame:> “ Mueller May Wrap Up Obstruction Probe Early As ChEnances Of Interview With Trump Fade”

Coming from HOTAIR, it sure is. Mueller will be around at least to election 2020, unless the RATS take the house, for impeachment.

Mueller will never “wrap up” anything. It will drag out during Trump’s entire tenure unless it is otherwise stopped by others.

Mueller has no direction or objective (officially) that has a measurable or conclusive finish. It is as obscure and open ended as it can possibly be interpreted.
