>>That would be like firing Comey controversy on steroids.<<

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I think a few days of hysteria is better than years of uncertainty.

If there is no crime to investigate, then THAT IS IT.

he cannot go off on fishing expeditions. The parameters of his investigation are set by the AGs office.

Sadly, you are incorrect. Mueller has free reign via Rosenstein's appointment letter, which includes the authorization to investigate “any matters that arose or may arise”

The very definition of fishing expeditions.

According 8 CFR 600.7: (d) The Special Counsel may be disciplined or removed from office only by the personal action of the Attorney General. The Attorney General may remove a Special Counsel for misconduct, dereliction of duty, incapacity, conflict of interest, or for other good cause, including violation of Departmental policies. The Attorney General shall inform the Special Counsel in writing of the specific reason for his or her removal.~~~~~~~~~In this case conflict of interest seems to be a good reason to fire Mueller

That’s exactly what it is. They know the Russia narrative is phony, so they are looking for anything at this point. If I were Trump, I’d keep a couple lawyers with me at all times just to ensure I make no mistakes because they are looking for anything.

It will look awful if he fires Mueller. Let him look away. Look as long as you want. When he finds nothing, he’ll be able to say the Dems wasted millions of taxpayer dollars on a witch hunt that I told you from the start was a waste of time. Firing Mueller won’t end anything. It’ll just prolong the agony because someone else will be appointed.

Do you really believe Mueller is about to spend gazillions of dollars and come up empty handed - his base (RATS) will be incensed and even more rabid then they are today. Keep him in that post and he WILL find something - DJT just like all of us is no angel walking on water.

Ask Scooter Libby if you doubt me - the Special Prosecutor in Libby's case knew who leaked Val Flame's name even before he took the job.

Trump made a huge mistake by pronouncing he would testify under oath - NEVER NEVER should that have been uttered. Trump reports to no one other than the electorate that put him in the position - NOT Congress (Linda Graham and Susan Collins for sure), NOT the Judicial, and certainly NOT THE FBI OR SPECIAL PROSECUTOR. Fire their a$$es - Trump needs to get on with a serious swamp cleaning and ASAP. We have his back and the media will grow even more rabid than they are now. SO WHAT?

My thoughts exactly....nothing to see here, but they will investigate until they can find another Scooter Libby whose only crime was not being able to recall a statement “verbatim” that he made 3 years earlier.

No the investigation needs to be ended because there is nothing to investigate per Comey.

Then a new investigation needs to be started against Comey, and Lynch.

Gingrich did a world of good by defining and delegitimizing Mueller by how he selected his “staff”. Trump made a bad error by not giving Gingrich an important role in his administration. Better than anyone Gingrich would have put an end to this ongoing anti Trump nonsense.

This true?
Don’t know but if true, it is a bombshell vs. Mueller:

Mueller vowing revenge vs. Trump.

Firing offense.

“Trump made a huge mistake by pronouncing he would testify under oath”

President was making a point not a promise to testify. He doesn’t have to testify and of course should’t.

What the Rats are hunting is for scalps in any process crimes. They want to Scooter Libby anyone and everyone.

That Libby was innocent of any crime didn’t save him from being targeted and his life laid fallow for something that had nothing to do with him. He misspoke and they leveled him.

That’s what these Mueller rats are going to try to do. They want to justify their big budget and have the Rat Mobs cheer them on.

Rod Rosenstein created this mess and won’t fix it. Let’s see what AG Sessions will do. I’m not predicting. Comey created the mess knowing President Trump was guilty of nothing regards to Russia but he wanted to trigger this special counsel lynch mob and he got his way.

The DOJ needs to unwind this fiasco but probably won’t. It’s going to be a lingering danger and an ugly mess. Dishonest to the core.

I hope President Trump “strikes while the iron is hot”, fires Dirty Mueller and shuts it all down. If he waits, he will lose momentum.

“PBS Newshour anchor Judy Woodruff posted to Twitter Monday evening that Chris Ruddy, CEO of Newsmax, told her that President Donald Trump is “”considering perhaps terminating” Robert Mueller as special counsel””

well there you go! some Prog “anchor” posted to twitter that the owner of newsmax TOLD her something about Trump.

Hell, in that case, it MUST be true, right?

And then 500 FReepers make comments on the thread exactly as if such bullshit is true!
