for the next 2 years of the Trump Circus


. . . Mueller

[Executive]

OK, I haven't heard much discussion yet on the political podcasts I listen to as to how Sessions getting fired and Matthew Whitaker becoming the new Attorney General will have an impact on the progress of the Mueller investigation. Word is that Whitaker is very pro-Trump and may suppress the Mueller report and soon.... Congressman Adam Schiff will become the Chairman of the Intelligence Committee. He believes it will be released before the Democrats re-take the House in January.

We know that the party in charge of the U.S. House has subpoena power, so should that occur the question I have is :
Can Congress force the A.G. to release that report, so it can be shared with the public ?

If they can't legally force him to, it will leak. One way or another the criminal syndicate in the whitehouse is going down.

That's what I was thinking too.  No doubt there will be leaks.  This is the leakiest White House before and since Hurricane Maria hit Puerto Rico last year!

I'd expect the complete Mueller report will surely be available to even the current House Intelligence Committee if it gets released this month or next.
Senator Joe Manchin told CBS This Morning today that he believes both parties will vote to protect Robert Mueller in this lame-duck session.

But it's not about protecting Mueller's job itself. If the investigation isn't finished yet and A.G. Whittaker fires Rod Rosenstein and Robert Mueller, that can't stop a criminal investigation that's been going on at the Special Counsel's office and the FBI for a year & 1/2 ! Too many agents and their employees know about it.

True enough, but the Trumps haven't been persona grata with the NYC banking world for quite a while now owing to their skeevy business practices (even by G-S & Friends standards). This is why they are so deep in hock with the Russians.  I suspect it is the info on his debts to the Russians, rather than knowledge of criminal acts, that is making The Orange One as desperate as a cat trying to bury a turd in a marble floor.

Besides, G-S & Friends have no big problem with offering up an occasional sacrifice to Da Sheeple, particularly when they're outsiders like the  Trumps.  Some Don, Jr. with Texas BBQ sauce, anyone?  Maybe some Spicy Szechaun Jared?
