That would be the ultimate limit, and the best one of course.

I was referencing the letter from the Deputy AG giving Meuller the authority to be special counsel to investigate Trump and Russia.

No, Mueller needs to be horse-whipped and stoned to death.

Sessions needs to step up and fire Rosenstein and then put someone in the deputy slot who will focus Mueller or fire his @$$!

I know you were..my point is that firing mueller wont stop this. Its way too late.

I remember someone I respect here say early on he needed to fire mueller and rosenstein right away because he couldn’t do it later. Legally he can do it...but he cant without it blowing up in his face

This has all been carefully planned by the Deep State. Sessions was ordered under threat to recuse himself. This is what set up the whole thing. Recuse yourself or end up like Seth Rich.

Tribe points out that if you pardon someone they can be compelled to testify.

If I was a NY prosecutor I would try to go for Jr or Eric and try to get them to flip. Use kushner as the wedge.

These leaked stories..true or not..about kushner may be them trying to drive the wedge.

Do you have a citation for that? A Rosenstein quote? I only see what journalists have written about the direction.

I say let Mueller milk this cow as long as he wants to while Trump appoints a parallel investigation into real crimes by HRC/DNC and with all of their as yet un-prosecuted but proven crimes, who will make it to a grand jury first. He must show he is willing to fight fire with fire. Call it mutually assured political destruction at the very least. He has his businesses to return to, what does HRC/DWS/JP do if they are political outcasts?

They’re doing all they can to get Trump to fire Mueller. There must be a plan to use that to gin up impeachment. Instead, Sessions should do it. It is all his fault anyway. He can unrecuse, fire Mueller and Rosenstein for good measure.

Yes, I agree. And the NYT posted a similar article at almost the same time. There’s the real collusion.
