FULL TITLE: Mueller's Filing Could Be Delayed Pending Donald Trump Jr., Jared Kushner's Indictments, says Ex-U.S. Attorney

A former U.S. attorney predicted on Saturday that special counsel Robert Mueller’s final report may be delayed pending the possible indictments of Donald Trump Jr. and Jared Kushner for lying to Congress.

During a segment on MSNBC, host Alex Witt and legal analyst Barbara McQuade discussed Mueller’s impending report and how the long-awaited probe will finally come to an end.

“Based on everything we do know so far, how do you think this probe will wrap up? Do you think there will be more indictments? Does it appear to be leading down that road?” Witt asked.

“The fact that all of the documents that continue to come out, continue to have redactions in them suggest that there are still investigations that are not quite wrapped up,” McQuade suggested. “Now it could be when someone is investigated that doesn’t necessarily mean they will be a charge—it means charges are being looked at. If they find evidence that the crimes were committed, there could be charges. One area under scrutiny is whether other people have lied to Congress.”

“Michael Cohen admitted to lying about Trump Tower Moscow and forced to plead guilty to that offense even though it brought no additional prison time and there were redactions from his sentencing memo where around the topic that talked about providing valuable information in the form of substantial assistance about circulating his testimony regarding that matter with others,” the former U.S. attorney continued. “So I would think that if others lied about that matter, other matters, we might see charges against them. That would include Donald Trump Jr. and Jared Kushner.”

Indicting any and all close to or that support Trump is the goal. If they can’t get something on the President they will destroy anyone around him to send a message to the citizenry.

Pure speculation. It probably was delay because of the summit with Kim.

“Lying to Congress”. The irony.....

Two things piss me off. One, the charge of “lying” to the FBI or Congress. Two, court gag orders like with Roger Stone.

If Mueller indicts Trump’s family the gloves will come off. Everything, in it’s unredacted form, gets released by the president. This would be a very good thing.

it is a coup, not a strategy, fire Mueller, if indictments come to family, pardon them, and tell deep state where to put it, we must confront this eventually, why are we waiting, and i do not buy the 3d chess scenario.bs is bs..

All of this where they question supporters, family members and staff for two years and somewhere develop conflicting statements and then charge the person with a “process crime” and for the press develop a story-line of how the person is covering up criminal activity is terroristic use of the DOJ / FBI.

What we may very well see is Mueller gets “finished” and then he turns over a bunch of nebulous files and accusations to local DOJ US Attorneys with political agenda’s and to State AGs where state crimes can’t be pardoned by the President.

This DOJ and FBI has to be torn down. It is a criminal enterprise. Paging Sydney Powell.

I care as much for the opinion of an MSNBC legal analyst as I do for the opinion of bucket of warm spit.

Lying to the chief grand liars of all time, the United States Congress!!!!!! When, WHEN will the citizens of this nation see this cess pool of corruption, fraud, stealing, lying, sexual misconduct, private money laundering through their bank in the Congress, packing their pockets with millions from PAC’s who pay them under the table. WHEN has John, the chicken farmer, elected from Timbuctoo, Minnesota, comes to congress with $75 in his pocket and leaves in retirement 35 years later as a multi-multi-multi millionaire??? They make it through theft with the American tax payer with his head in the sand!! PEOPLE OPEN YOUR EYES, these people are selling you down the river for the One World Government, UN types. WAKE THE HELL UP!!

I believe it is much more important for this story to drag on into the 2020 election cycle; they want this cloud hanging over Trump rather than acknowledging it was a propaganda nothingburger...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Those agencies and many others were turned into criminal enterprises by the Kenyan from Indonesia.
The reason it continues unchecked is that BOTH parties cooperated to violate the Constitution.
Barack Obama is NOT a natural born citizen.
They ALL knew.

So why hasn’t Mueller indicted them already?

That would be close to the “Holy Grail” of gotcha journalism ... and you know the Leftist Media-Democrat Complex are salivating for it ...

so the fact that it HASN’T happened yet, after two years of thorough investigating, suggests there’s nothing there

Barbara McQuade is dreaming ... but it’s probably better for Big Media if they keep the meme going, so the rubes (average citizens) won’t realize they’ve been lied-to all along

“Could be”, “predicted”, “may be”, “possible”, “suggest that”, “doesn’t necessarily mean”, “if”, “whether”, “that if”, “might see”.......

Why don’t they just come out and say “I don’t know....”
