Judge extends Robert Mueller’s grand jury by six months
Washington Examiner ^ | January 4, 2019 | Kelly Cohen

A federal judge has extended special counsel Robert Mueller's federal grand jury six months.

The Washington-based grand jury was seated for an 18-month term that began in July 2017 and was set to expire in the coming days.

Chief Jude Beryl Howell of the D.C. District Court oversees the Mueller grand jury and granted the extension, CNN’s Katelyn Polantz reported.

Under federal rules, the court is able to extend a grand jury's term for another six months if it is "in the public interest."

More garbage. Mueller needs to heed what is going on around him.

This won’t be wrapped up until 2020...probably just in time for the “October surprise”.

Six more months would roughly correspond with the predictions that Mueller will wrap up his investigations and issue a report in May.

So, an Obama appointee is supervising the Mueller Grand Jury? What could possibly go wrong there?

The longer they delay, the less chance Trump has to defend himself. I wish Trump would just release what he knows now, there really is no point in waiting any longer.

These judges don’t seem concerned at all that Mueller perjured himself by using the documents he did when requesting wire taps on Trump staff. Not only is this Special Prosecutor a rogue, the courts are also rogue courts now. Couple this with deep state FBI and other agencies, not to mention the Justice Department itself, and you’ve got a sea of corruption here. This allows the rabid Leftists to blather on as if there is some big dark secret coming.

If Mueller goes after Trump’s family and Trump, this is going to get very ugly. The American public that allowed Nixon to get railroaded, won’t stand still for this.

Congress needs to pull isn’t head out and get in the game here.

There’s a lot riding on this for the nation.

I think this is actually cover for Mueller’s failure. He doesn’t want to flame out now when people are paying attention. He wants to wait to see what muck the Dem House will kick up and then quietly end his ‘investigation’ under cover of Dem impeachment proceedings.

"in the public interest."

I'm ready for a Constitutional Amendment banishing that phrase from ALL law. It can't be defined. And it's never used for any good purpose.

Great! So far it’s been such a productive “investigation “. It’s one rat hole worth filling.
