The real bombshell takeaway from former special counsel Robert Muellers self-serving press conference on Wednesday is that he just threw Attorney General William Barr, a long-time Justice Department colleague and friend, under the bus by insinuating he lied regarding POTUS Donald Trumps guilt in Russian collusion hoax.
And in doing so, Mueller chose his loyalty to the deep state over he loyalty to a lifelong friend. Thats how serious this battle royale between all the presidents men and the Deep State really is.
First, for context, a little history.
As noted by The Atlantic, both Barr and Mueller served together at the Justice Department in the early 1990s in the administration of President George H. W. Bush (himself a former CIA director). Not only that, but as Barr told senators during his confirmation hearing in January, the two men have had a relationship for years on personal, social, and family levels...

Horowitz has already released a 500 + page report that concluded the FBI dindu nuffin. Sorry.
But the first section should be required reading for anyone interested in how sheer willpower determined many of the daily battles for emotional (rather than tactical) control. IMO, his most important observation was how the British "owned the night". They simply manned up and went out every night in small unit patrols. They weren't afraid of the Germans; rather, the Germans acquiesced and allowed them to control the night.
Or, to use a very famous battle as another example, the English were outnumbered around 1:4 @ Agincourt. Not only that, but they were foot soldiers weak and depleted, trapped on enemy ground. The French were all horse mounted knights, well fed and rested. The entire country showed up for the slaughterfest. Problem is, it was they who got served up.
My point is, you move past any attachment to how things were, and deal with how things are - even if the odds appear stacked against you. The enemy is either addressed or they're not - it's not out call. Everything that could be possibly done via legal processes ie voting, has been done. So, let's see how this plays out ...

I would disagree with that approach. I don’t think dragging your feet will win over any converts, I would prefer to see some heads roll.
Certainly, one lone man who throws open the sash and screams into the night isnt going to accomplish anything. Ten million men at the same time will accomplish a hell of a lot.
The foot dragging of Limited Hangout is not intended to win converts it is intended to placate the suckers.
Mueller tried to obfuscate the truth that he had nothing that warranted an indictment and said so to Barr - then Mueller tried to hint that he didn’t indict because of a cocoon around the Presidency.
Mueller is trying to give the Dems ammo to make it look like any actions taken against the deep State, and Mueller, are the same sort of partisan hack job Mueller employed.
Mueller’s nervousness and ‘oddness’ as he made the statement tells me he thinks he has something to fear as Barr digs into the mess.
That was the earlier one with a more narrow focus. We are waiting for the one he is supposed to release “in May or June.” Do not mistake my mention of this for any optimism on my part. I am not optimistic. However, this report is the last item to drop before the “investigations” can move to the next phase.
PLEASE, President Trump:

Release those sealed indictments.
Now Mueller finds himself in the same boat with Comey Clapper, Brennen and Lynch.
Retired, millionaires, and living the high life with no threat of prosecution or criminal charges, just like anyone named Clinton or Obama - zero percent change of living on the inside of a jail cell.
Deep State Trump investigation guilty we’ll come with a name for it later.
You are right. I don’t think Barr regards Mueller as a pal any longer. Mueller has his eyes focused of the corruption in the Deep State; and that includes Mueller, and Mueller must know it.
Barr strikes me as a type of man who would indict his own brother if the brother committed a crime. He may not want to, but it would be his duty; and Barr will not hesitate to indict Mueller, especially if Mueller knew there were know crimes before the 2018 elections.
His sorry ass needs to be brought before the senate UNDER OATH to clear up the discrepancies between him and Barr.
I am taking your position, until I see some indictments you have to consider anything the US government says as a lie, especially when they start talking about the rule of law, it’s a damned joke at this point.
Will Barr put Comey, Lynch, Brennan, Struck/Stroke on trial? Until he does so you have to consider anything the DOJ/FBI/CIA/NSA/DNI/DIA says with the same roll of the eyes you give a report on what top Venezuelan or Haiti’s law enforcement officials might say.
These agencies have no credibility and it’s by their own lies and criminal behavior, it’s on them. You can’t get that credibility back by keeping the criminals in charge because you can bet the farm if no one goes to jail over this coup attempt, next time, and there will be a next time, their attempt will not fail and you can kiss self-government goodbye, the self-appointed USA Praetorian Guard aka the deep state will choose who and who doesn’t become president. The republic is in great danger and the elites are still playing their petty games. Barr the ball is in your court...
