Rosenstein is headed out, and a new AG is coming in, so Muller will no longer have protection. A bunch of Muller’s attack dogs have left, leaving a skeleton crew.

If they had something on Trump, they would have indicted by now.

Right.

The attitude will be “sources close to the investigation say if only you could see the horrifying impeachable offenses in the report it would curl your hair. But we can only get a sense of it and say Trump is the most corrupt man to ever hold any political office in the history of the world.”

Like the Hee Haw line:

I’m not one to repeat gossip, so you better listen close the first time.

I BET THEY ARE FINDING AND DESTROYING EVIDENCE AGAISNT HILLIARY/OBAMA/THEMSELVES.

That's what I suspect.

This was a clean-up operation not an investigation

It was also a means to trap people and create rumors and innuendos Democrats and the media can use to imply Trump must be guilty of something (even if Mueller can't prove it).

My 2 cents is that the report will be nebulous.

It will say we found nothing but there could be something. That will throw the whole issue into the political theater of the House.

Feinstein can vote no like the rest of her comrades.

It is up to the DOJ, not Congress.

If she doesn’t like it, she can do her job and change the law.

Yes.

It's going to be 'although we can't find any proof of collusion we also can't disprove certain 'facts''.

It will be guilt by rumors and innuendos.

Legal experts say whatever Mueller produces will likely be scrubbed to conceal sensitive national security information deep state lies.

Fixed. At least that is the only other reason I can think of why it wouldn't be made public, the main reason being there's nothing in it and it must be up to the MSM to convince us there is a there, there.

“I saw an intriguing article yesterday that said that Democrats will launch impeachment proceedings as soon as Ginsburg steps down to try to prevent Trump from nominating her replacement.”

IIRC, wasn’t she nominated while the Bent One was under investigation for impeachment?

With all the hype about this “investigation” it has to be made public. Otherwise we are no different from major dictatorships or communists.

Until it’s leaked ala “Pentagon Papers”...”in the national interest”, of course.

Have no doubt, it will be. Just think about who will have access to it.

No. Ginsburg was nominated while Clinton was under investigation for Whitewater in 1993. Impeachment didn't happen until his second term.

“Ginsburg was nominated while Clinton was under investigation for Whitewater in 1993.”

Thanks. I wasn’t fully paying attention back then. Still nominated and approved while the President was under a cloud of suspicion, so the dims have nothing to say here. Maybe with the Biden rule in 2020, but that would be as far as I would go. Maybe. I really think it is important to replace Thomas with a younger version while Trump can still make the appointment.

The report from the special counsel to the AG would only contain a summary of the indictments, plus any additional information to explain why cases were NOT prosecuted, if applicable. The indictments are public information. Other grand jury proceedings are not.
