Fridays at the DC federal courthouse are typically days of high alert for the press corps trying to discern what special counsel Robert Mueller's next legal action will be. But this Friday, court officials went to extreme measures to ensure it was as difficult as possible to figure out what Mueller's team was doing as the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit held a secret and mysterious argument about a grand jury subpoena challenge. An entire floor of the courthouse was closed to the public and press for more than an hour. During that time, attorneys secretly entered the courthouse to argue before three federal appellate judges over a grand jury subpoena.
The mystery of the subpoena appeal appears to date back to early September, when CNN witnessed several lawyers from Mueller's office entering a courtroom to argue against an unknown defense team before a trial-level judge who oversees federal grand jury-related cases.
Clearly, a challenge related to Mueller's grand jury investigation was underway.
Shortly after, that judge, Chief Judge Beryl Howell of the DC District Court, ruled on a case related to a grand jury subpoena, and the losing party attempted to appeal the ruling. The appellate court batted the case back down to Howell, who held a second sealed hearing on October 5. Though CNN was locked out of the courtroom while the arguments took place, the hearing featured the same team from Mueller's office as before, which included top criminal law appellate lawyer Michael Dreeben.
Mueller's office declined to comment on the hearings.

.....”No one has authority over the FBI and CIA and the Democrats are running wild”.......
Well heck that’s been going on long before the Mueller Investigation.....Trump threw a wrench in it ‘all’.....so they’re all running around trying to put the cap back on it all.
That is what got us in this shape. The government keeps folks occupied so they can watch what they are doing to us. NUKE DC!
Absolutely!
I feel the same but it will take a little longer than I have I am afraid.
I cant claim to know anything but the best fit IMHO is as follows: one way to deal with Mueller is to get him disbarred for unethical behavior. If one were to do this the court where that disbarment would be heard is exactly this one. This theory could be full of crap for all I know but it could be tig if brue. Series.
The leftist reaction to his wrapping up the witch hunt against Flynn and Cohen has shown how "another planet" their (lack of) thinking is.
Now I know why the statue of Justice is blindfolded. .................... ??? She must be Republican?
Disbarment would be handled by whatever Bar Association exists in DC, not by a court.
That's old hat!
No southpaws out there throwing rocks. Why is that?
;-)
If you can throw with your left hand you are saving it for your career in baseball as a pitcher? Just guessing.
All those southpaws have been snapped up to throw baseballs!
That's great.
Play ball.
Ferris, many here probably think you are mad for posting this, but in fact you are the sanest man on FR.
You are absolutely correct. The Book of Revelation (God’s Holy Word) will be fulfilled. I don’t know when. But it will be.
Are the signs there? Yes. How close are we? I do not know.
But anyone who pays any attention to the news and world events can see what is happening - clearly happening.
If that is scary, then you don’t truly know Jesus Christ, and His promises.
Damascus must become desolate first- (Isaiah 17)
Sad as it is, what we’re all witnessing has been foretold in the Bible, in that mankind is not capable of governing himself (beyond the short term) due to his corrupt nature.
Also, I believe the antichrist comes out of Europe, so that probably means the US will not be the leading superpower it once was.
Our military strength is indisputable, so I believe we will experience an economic or natural catastrophe instead.

It is interesting (for lack of a better word) how quickly the French Yellow Jackets managed to hit the streets by the tens of thousands to protest the ridiculous policies of their witless president, while here there is no hint of any large-scale street protests over the blatant criminality of the swamp creatures obstructing the President’s efforts to stop the invasion across our southern border, and their refusal to indict anyone connected to the Obama/Clinton crime cartel.
None dare question His Emperical Highness
besides, the sane are too busy working and paying mortgages
