Robert Mueller’s testimony was a stammering, stuttering mess

t was testimony the whole country waited for — but former special counsel Robert Mueller could barely be heard at times on Wednesday, stammering through certain responses while asking lawmakers to repeat themselves.

The former FBI director, 74, oscillated between steadfastness and mumbling, his microphone at points failing him as he struggled to be heard above the din of spectators and photographers.

"IMO, Mueller gave a glorious performance to the lame brain Dems."

His testimony was better than Christine Blasey Ford's.

Mueller has a bulbous, WC Fields nose, with visible veins which are similar to this font's color.

During his testimony, I got to wondering whether Robert Swan Mueller III might have a drinking history....

The American electorate got to see that the whole affair was a big hoax perpetrated upon our President and the citizens of this country. The FBI/DOJ/Judiciary should be held responsible and accountable for their culpability/ties. Heads should roll...

In Andrew Weissmann, The DOJ Makes a Stunningly Bad Choice for Crucial Role

AAG for the Criminal Division, Leslie Caldwell, reunites with her discredited henchman from a bogus Merrill Lynch prosecution

By Sidney Powell
01/12/15

Just when one thinks things can’t get any worse in the Department of Corrupting and Obstructing Justice, Assistant Attorney General for the Criminal Division, Leslie Caldwell, brings back her long-time protégé and comrade Andrew Weissmann. She has empowered him to head the Fraud Section of the Department. Ms. Caldwell and Mr. Weissmann go way back—to the Eastern District of New York ( most recently run by Loretta Lynch) where they cut their teeth prosecuting major organized crime figures, while running cooperators’ cases on the secret docket to protect the unseemly deals they made.

As we predicted upon Ms. Caldwell’s ascension, brace for a major escalation in the war on American businesses. The head of the fraud section is an important and powerful position, and Mr. Weissmann shouldn’t have any difficulty passing the FBI background check. He departed as general counsel only a year ago.

(snip)

If Mr. Weissmann were subject to confirmation hearings, it might be a different story. Ms. Caldwell and Mr. Weissmann reunite as part a cabal of prosecutors from the old Enron Task Force, a frightening number of whom have been running our country behind the scenes during this administration. The Enron Task Force prosecutors ran roughshod over the rights of countless people in their pursuit of convictions rather than justice, and their strategies and tactics resulted in the reversal in whole or in part of every case they actually took to trial. Fresh off their secretly-corrupted convictions, they all received the Attorney General’s Award for Excellence, and they catapulted themselves to positions of enormous power and influence in Washington.

Kathryn Ruemmler became President Obama’s longest-serving White House Counsel, Lisa Monaco became his Counter-Terrorism Advisor, Andrew Weissmann became Deputy Director/General Counsel of the FBI, and Leslie Caldwell became AAG for the Criminal Division. Matthew Friedrich had already completed his stint as Acting Assistant Attorney General for the Criminal Division where he micro-managed the corrupted prosecution of former Alaska Senator Ted Stevens during the Bush administration.

Maybe “fairly competent?”

Utter failure to deliver that which Schmuck Nadler so desperately hoped for.

The term to describe the shadow of a man that was excessively lauded and thanked for his service, is “Diminished Capacity!” He doesn’t “have it” anymore.

Bronze Star and all, he ain’t got shit no more.

Thank his Demoncrat “friends” for putting him up to the ridicule he so deserves.
Mueller deserves a place of shame in history.

I believe, and I could be wrong, that that quote would be rightfully attributed to Will Rogers.

I could only take 30 seconds of the video.
Thanks anyway.
Can’t believe how small Nadler is. Wide, but small in stature, small in intellect and small in honor.

He must be sitting on three pillows during the proceedings.

I predict that in next couple days days the networks will be reporting that he has dementia.

The look and smell of a guy with some knowledge of the law trying hard not to incriminate himself further in an obviously flawed endeavor based on some illegal activities. Activities he is surely aware of, activity covering up, and therefore an accessory to after the fact.

He’s about as wide as he is tall. I lived in his district in Manhattan when he got his start, and he would stand at the top of the subway stairs so you couldn’t get by him without shaking his hand. Well, you could if you tried, and I managed to get by without touching him because he looked like somebody whose ugliness might have been contagious.
