Excellent hypothesis, probably correct. Just look at how GOP Senator Richard Burr (R-NC) has led interference for the Democrats and guaranteed that the Senate committees do nothing. That is just one example of a key Republican working against getting this stuff fully investigated and prosecuted.

The feral government wants nothing to do with justice or secure borders. Once the patriots in this country realize this, pick up ol Bessy and their possibles maybe we can fix what is broken with our Country.

All farce and theater by every single Republican, without exception. This, by the way, includes the OMB director and the President.

You are going to call every Trumpette out of the woodwork on this comment.

I agree with you as well that all of the feral government is complicit and this little experiment needs to have a serious look at.

Of course, the support from Ryan and McConnell for Mueller and Rosenstein, combined with their utter lack of support for or cooperation with other investigations, shows where they are on all of this.

Huber and IG Horowitz were both appointed by Obama.

The outcome of their alleged “investigation” is exactly what I expected - nothing.

The only mystery that remains to be solved is why Trump nominated Rod Rosenstein, who was Obama’s “go to” U.S. Attorney for eight years.

One other mystery - why did Trump never declassify and publicly release any documents that would have proved his own innocence and proved the political corruption in the DOJ and FBI?

Huber and Sessions are already punch lines for jokes.

The lack of declassification is explained by the ways in which DOJ and the Mueller probe have set things up. The Mueller team scoops up every possible doc for their “investigation” ... then while it is pending (indefinitely, going into 2019 now) any declassification would be termed an “obstruction of justice” by Mueller & co. That is why all the calls for Trump to simply order declassification won’t help — he has surely been told that Mueller would treat such an order as an “obstruction of justice” — no matter how perverse that would be.

Just the DOJ version of “Omerta”....code of both honor and silence.

“Huber has not impaneled a federal grand jury to subpoena witnesses or hear evidence.”

The people, and any choice they make for office, will be investigated, and a crime will be found. The government, and its choices, will never be investigated. Mueller, Huber, Sessions, and RR are proof that the government no longer serves the people. The showdown on the budget is proof that government has no intention of protecting the people. Democrats are just an American ostrich, with their heads in the sand, hoping that as long as the push Patriots to the crocodile now, it won’t come for them next.

The Huber Investigation was a sham, BS, fake, Fake to make sessions look like that he was doing the job as a real AG. Huber has done nothing, plans on doing nothing. Whittaker are the new AG should call his butt in and ask him what he has done, which will be nothing then tell him to stop the fake investigation an go back to what he was doing before which was nothing.

I agree with everything you say. Fire him and audit his “investigation”.

So many people, even here, believed the lies - many of them - printed over and over about Huber and Horowitz digging into the rotten Dims in the DOJ - in spite of NEVER having any evidence for them; believing because they wanted to.

"Mr. Huber was asked to evaluate certain issues and report directly to the attorney general and the deputy attorney general, as appropriate,” Melodie Rydalch, spokeswoman

Clearly, she is saying he is not doing an investigation to collect evidence. He is merely evaluating issues to advise the AG.

Anyway, because of his absurd recusal, Jeff Sessions could not appoint a second special counsel to investigate the investigators of the Russia hoax from which he had recused himself. Huber was just a smokescreen to try to fob off those who wanted justice for government wrongdoers.

This was obviously a delaying tactic and public relations ploy in hopes that the Democrats would take over the House and end the only investigations, however weak they were, into the crimes and misconduct by Federal intelligence and law enforcement agencies to hurt the Trump Campaign and to help the Clintons.

I'm beginning to think there really was a Pee Party blackmail video, except it starred Jeff Sessions.

They won the House. After as long a delay as possible to let things die down, the IG report will be issued which will include a few mild criticisms and recommend some new procedures for optics.

They successfully outlasted the GOP House, and now they merely need to outlast Trump until 2020 and the long national nightmare for our above-the-law masters in the DOJ, FBI, CIA, the State Department and elsewhere in the deep state will be over.

So much bullchit in this article. Either the republicans in the house or the senate can easily target, cut, and gut appropriations for any agency and any position in any agency if they have gone off the rails. .

Could have. Now the GOP is in the minority, so any power like that they lost in the House.

As we are seeing, the Senate is pretty dysfunctional for the GOP too.

Sounds like what Strzok/Page/McCabe called an "insurance policy." And if by some miracle the GOP approved a second special counsel to investigate the DOJ etc. its actions would be "obstruction of justice" too.

The window for attacking this has narrowed substantially. Sessions made sure of that, either through his ineptitude or collaboration. While he sat on his hands, the coup attempt grew stronger and more strategic.

Meantime, the Deep State has implemented a disinformation campaign and infiltrated sites like Free Republic with stuff like this Q to distract the right and keep them thinking that salvation was just around the corner — all while they deepened their treasonous effort.

Brennan and his ilk have infiltrated our site, and we allowed it to happen. The camel’s nose is under our tent, and we are dangerously close to aiding and abetting the Deep State’s strategic plan.

On the budget side OMB has done squat under Mulvaney. OMB can make your life absolutely miserably as an appointee in an agency. Working with appropriators they can gut you another.

Hasn’t been done. Why. Because the White House and Trump wants it that way. With apologies “Everyone is getting fat except Mama Cass”.

Half of what Trump does is kabuki. Sometimes to rile the racist, regressive, fascists. Sometimes to rile up the his base.

You have to understand that to understand him.

I support him, but without the wall he is doomed. Any more gun control nonsense and he is toast. He cannot afford ANY defections from his base. The haters are growing their numbers every day with a massive harvest planned for 2020.

Trump, conservatives, and republicans haven’t the faintest idea on how to use government and to build a local infrastructure to oppose that.
