Yet what has Mueller done? Aside from Manafort, the Mueller investigation has netted some process crimes and indicted a pack of Russians who will never stand trial. Leaks from his organization (in my view, deliberate and strategic to keep the press on the muh Russia trail) have had reporters running from the Deutsche Bank to the Seychelles with absolutely nothing to show for it. Moreover, he keeps numerous Deep Staters in the employ of the FBI where, although being systematically demoted and de-fanged, they cannot leak. Meanwhile. . . snip
Now you see why Sessions and Horowitz needed a smokescreen. The size of the operation they are conducting is massive, and the perpetrators numerous and very well entrenched. John Gotti took five years to bring to trial after the FBI had the goods on him. Robert Hanssen took two, even though the FBI knew he was a spy. This process is grinding slowly but finely and Robert Mueller is playing his part to perfection.

your baseball team is not too good either...enjoy your summer.
With LS’ credential one would think he is spot on...If he could throw in there how that Rosenstein, Mueller and Comey are long time comrades and how Mueller is providing cover for Trump while leading hardcore Trump haters/Clinton donors as his investigative force, it may persuade me to take this idea more seriously...
LOL -- thanks for the reminder. It can ALWAYS get worse...
You might, at that, were you to experience any.
Well, don't give up now!
Why else do you think I have taken you under my wing?
I’m still just watching all this, but I did go back and look how long it took from the Watergate break in to convictions, and it was about 3 years. Also, at a glance, most of the convictions seem to have been for perjury. What happens in the aftermath of the released OIG report will be a major clue as to whether we are seeing master chess playing in action or just more of the same DC corruption.
I like this explanation, from another site’s comments:
It’s also possible that both Mueller and Rosenstein have finally been caught in the middle of one of their shenanigans and that, both being survivors and now necessarily in survival mode, have agreed to go along with both AG Sessions and President Trump, maintaining a fiction while IG Horowitz and DOJ Prosecutor Huber proceed to bring down everyone involved in the Obama administration corruption and the later attempt to take down a duly-elected president.
Note that the recent revealing of an August 2nd memorandum from Rosenstein to Mueller served to limit Mueller’s investigation to certain areas, most of them redacted. At the end, however, it specifically removes Mueller’s original authorization to go wherever his investigation leads. He can no longer do that without clearing it with Rosenstein, and hence with Sessions.
My reading of it now is that Mueller and Rosenstein are not White Hats, that they might have been sympathetic to several Black Hats, but that they are now trying to save their skins before quietly exiting stage right around the time Horowitz and Huber wrap the whole mess up with multiple indictments and convictions.
This reading allows for Mueller and Rosenstein’s duplicitous past while explaining President Trump’s apparent reluctance to tag either of them with a nasty name.
