Congresswoman Jackie Speier (D-San Mateo) told KQED Newsroom on Friday that she believes Republicans are trying to shut down the House Intelligence Committee’s probe into alleged Russian interference in the 2016 elections.
Speier also said, “The rumor on the Hill when I left yesterday was that the president was going to make a significant speech at the end of next week. And on Dec. 22nd, when we are out of D.C., he was going to fire Robert Mueller.”
If this were to happen, Speier said, it would cause a constitutional crisis. “That is Saturday massacre 2.0,” she said. “Without a doubt there would be an impeachment effort.”
Fellow representative, Adam Schiff, had the same concerns.
Schiff says that no witnesses have been scheduled after next Friday, and that dozens of outstanding witnesses have not been contacted. He tweeted that there will be interviews next week, but they will be held out of state while important votes will be keeping members of Congress in Washington D.C.

Can I steal this for my facebook. I will of course cite you as the source
They are nuts already , fire this hack
I agree. No way is Trump going to fire Mueller just as his case is winding down; or at least should be.
Trump and Sessions should have a heart to heart about the future though. Sometime after Jan 20th; Sessions should resign but offered another position in the cabinet... possibly as an advisor/consultant.
The commie ape, Jackie Speier, ought to be more worried about being arrested for treason, found guilty and hanged.
“Mueller is a great thing for Trump. Firing him would just start the whole witch hunt all over.”
That is the most cogent statement I’ve read all day.
You get sergeantdave’s best and most best FR’s post of the day.
Thanks from one Sargent to another.
Us sergeants keep the military machine rolling in the right direction. The deep state fascists fear us...for good reason.
Now that I think about it Holder does connect. He told the Uranium One informant not to talk to Congress.
He should explain the case against Mueller in a prime time address,to inform America.
Then, ask Mueller to voluntarily resign. Put the pressure on HIM!
Probably so.
This rumor is going around to distract from all of the people who will be stepping aside in the next 72 hours. because of the inappropriate behavior !
Hope so. Fire the bastard!
Let’s hope and pray that they do resign. It’s the best way. I am sure that there is a ton of stuff hiding in their closets that the public couldn’t accept too. If PDT gets rid of them the Congress, if it can, will try to use it as a reason to take Trump down, or at least try. The media will positively scream.
