Republicans and Democrats want Mueller to testify again. They may regret it.
Politico ^ | July 26, 2020 | Andrew Desiderio

Lindsey Graham once said he had no interest in hearing from Robert Mueller

Now, 100 days out from Election Day, the South Carolina Republican and Senate Judiciary Committee chairman is teasing a blockbuster hearing with the former special counsel, joining Democrats’ months long push for Mueller to appear before the panel.

But hauling Mueller back to the Capitol won’t be easy. And some doubt it will even happen so close to the election, in part because of the political land mines such an event would create for both Republicans and Democrats.

“I’ll believe it when I see it,” Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), a Judiciary Committee member, said in a brief interview. “I have seen nothing since that leads me to think [Graham] is actually going to call Mueller.”

Taking anything from Politico as being in any way useful is silly. Like all commiepuke media, they lie, make up stuff, cherry pick quote, etcetc.

Graham will get serious about deep-state corruption right after Blumenthal fights in Vietnam.


I disagree. Linda will hold substantive hearings once he returns from a honeymoon after marrying a female.

Quick searches, and obviously MSN and Politico are bulls***.

As of August 2018, 3,614 AllSides readers agree that The Daily Beast has a Left media bias, Washington post loves it.

Talking Points Memo (or TPM) is a left-leaning political, news and opinion website created and run by Josh Marshall that debuted on November 12, 2000, connected with Politico in some way.

Splinter was a left-leaning news and opinion website owned by G/O Media. It launched in July 2017 and ceased publication in November 2019.

No one disputes he said any of those things, and there are many sources.

How’s Rush Limbaugh for a source?

Mueller was just abusing his power and leading a coup against the POTUS. He never stepped down, and is revered by 75% of the media.

If he is incoherent, he should plead incoherence.

"Republicans and Democrats want Mueller to testify again. They may regret it."

Because Mueller was so effective last time? HA!

What I like is to hear the entire statements and context, or transcript.

For another thing, investigations are alreayd happening by the DoJ. Senate hearings are more a public consumption show than anything else. Iow no big deal, whatever.

But if I’m going to read anything, it’s gotta be by honest reporters. Hoft is not a reporter, he grabs bits and pieces from here and there.

All these little screenshots or whatever they are, are not useful for finding real info.

Pfffttt! He’ll need a spokesperson to do that for him or someone responsible to write a letter declining appearance

It’s quite obvious that Lindsey Graham takes advantage of a media that has no interest and curiosity about some things.

He’s always promising Hearings and Judgement day, but does nothing year after Year.

There’s a common sense expression: actions speak louder than words.

Just follow what he does - and it’s all crystal clear.

Details, none that you produced.

Bits and pieces and snips of someone saying something, and some opinion tossed in, mostly all from commiepuke sites, is worthless. Nothing in depth, in context, or full direct quotes of anything the principles said.

Total waste of time.

Besides all the above, what earthly use would it be to have Mueller come and testify? He already testified in front of Congress. What do they want to hear? “Yes, I hired all Demshevik lawyers. Yes, they made a few stupid and in most cases illegal (as in Flynn’s cawe) arrests based on lying bullsquat from corrupt Fibbers who are now gone. I really didn’t do much, Weissman pretty much ran the show.”
