When y ou are investigated or sued, the general sequence is:
Complaint-Response-Reply.
The officials that sued/investigated Donald Trump and the Trump campaign have in effect acted to lay down a complaint but they are not of Congress and therefore Congress has no basis to demand a role in a reply because they did not appoint the Special Prosecutor.
Congress certainly has the authority to question Mueller but they have no standing to issue orders as to how the executive process unfolds unless they pass constitutional law allowing them to do so. Good luck with that.
Congress can launch their own investigation and Rep. Schiff has said numerous times that he has sufficient, abundant evidence to charge the President with crimes and to impeach him. Let him proceed if he is able.
Congress’s role at this point is to review, question, and report. They are not allowed to usurp the executive process.
The copy of the Mueller Report is being made available to Congress as it was demanded and the Executive Branch is obligated to provide a copy when requested. It will be redacted but in Congress, the Gang of Eight, they are allowed to review the unredacted report in a secure facility known as a SCIF.
Unless Mueller informs that his report has been altered, the only option available to Democrats in Congress is to bring forth the evidence they claim they have (e.g. Schiff) or to stand down.
The winning,,,,,,
It just doesn’t stop!
I watched the press conference. I did my best to take notes of what Nadler said. It went something like this....
I want a feast
I want a bean feast
Cream buns and doughnuts and fruitcake with no nuts so good you could go nuts.
No, now!
I want a ball
I want a party
Pink macaroons and a million balloons and performing baboons and...
Give it to me now.
I want the world,
I want the whole world.
I want to lock it all up in my pocket
It’s my bar of chocolate
Give it to me now!
I want today
I want tomorrow
I want to wear them like braids in my hair and I don’t want to share them
I want a party with roomfuls of laughter
Ten thousand tons of ice cream
And if I don’t get the things I am after
I’m going to scream!
I want the works,
I want the whole works!
Presents and prizes and sweets and surprises in all shapes and sizes,
And now!
Don’t care how I want it now!
Don’t care how I want it now!
“The walls are closing in on the Dems now.”
Gregg Jarrett said that “Now the real investigation begins.” I wonder if Hillary, Obama, etc., are still in possession of their passports.
Hypocrisy, thy name is commie.
Rep. Cittine apparently does not know the law. It is ILLEGAL for Barr or anyone, to release the whole report. Of course, they ALL know that. They’re just lying to the American people...again.
To say, accuse, chargw all they have against Trump when he is innocent of ALL they have lied about.. and to KNOW hillary, obama, and that administration are guilty of/ did/orchestrated all they have charged against Trump... when will they know what they have made/done is coming down on them!!! They dug their hole and they burned their rear... live in it/ sit on it!!
This is going to be somethng I’ve waited for a long time!! Is the fiasco finally OVER?! Is justice served via an AG worth his position!
The damage that former president brught down on my country!.. I have said he opened the pit and we see the division/hate/animosity everywhere. He did this .. the media did this... the dems did this...!!!!
God help this nation to heal!
Bump for later too
INTO THE FIRE SCUMBAGS
I seriously don’t see how they can pass their bill to give illegal aliens the right to vote and not anticipate “just a little bit of blow-back.”
Patriots are being vehhwy, vewwy patient with them.
why is it ‘wrong’ for the president to be briefed on the report? It’s THE REPORT... they actually work for him... why should they get to see it first?
What exactly is ‘wrong’ about it? So he sees it. He can’t change any of it.
Rememer when Adam Schittforbrains had a caniption fit because of the report that was going to be released last year?
I don’t know why he was so upset - it didnt seem to implicate him in anything. Or is he just the yipping poodle distracting from REAL information?
The Dummycrats know full well the full report cannot be released and that the names of the Grand Jury witnesses cannot be released, thus the redactions.
They're counting on the STUPIDITY of the Democrat supporters and lying liberal lamestream media to not know why Grand Jury Testimony MUST be kept secret so they can keep the strawman argument going.
Shame on them all, a pox on their house and I hope they all die painful, cancer riddled deaths.
“Mueller, Mueller, Mueller, why you gonna treat us this way?
You know, you’re still our loverboy, we still feel the same way”
That’s when Barr told them a story about no collusion and how
He said, “No obstruction, no ‘peachment, gonna watch Mad Max have a cow”
“My Mueller, my baby, don’t put our hope upon no shelf”
They said “Barr, keep your mouth shut and keep that report to yourself”
Can you say, “Executive privilege?” I knew you could. As President, he can see anything the DOJ and FBI have produced...without asking Fatso Nadler’s permission.
lol..like the Dems WON’T try and spin the report to damage President Trump.
Hillary>Uranium>Hostile foreign power> Clinton Foundation>$140million>$500,000 “fee”=gallows.
first a memo wasn’t enough, they wanted the report. Now the report is imminent, they don’t want the report.
Along with the attitude towards sanctuary cities actually giving sanctuary, this is the second time in two days that the Dems have gone belfry-hanging bi-polar.
I’m rather enjoying this.
MAGA !!
