    Haha ha, ya'll think Mueller charges are going to be dismissed. Maybe passed on to the Virginia Prosecutor -- he didn't report his Ukraine income! But there is a reason Mueller's boy's are hanging on to this. It is not just about the income he reported as a Resident of Virginia. I'd wait for the ruling, were I you. Ha ha ha.

    Democrats are now making the same mistakes that the Republicans did in the ‘90’s - letting personal dramas snuff out any meaningful message to the types of voters the Democratic Party needs to reach.

    The working class Rust Belt voters don’t really care about Donald Trumps ‘s twitter feed or Stormy Daniels’ nasty cooch.

  3. Not going to be dismissed but the fact that he sees the gig will influence his conduct along the way.

    And there will be no dismissal of the obstruction of justice charge against Trump or russian collusion/conspiracy because there are no charges. And I am the first - as usual- to welcome the day the pussy wants to go down that road.

    Everything else is a just a witch hunt sideshow with side charges to compensate for his not being able to delivery on his main mission. You seem to need frequent reminders on this.

    And yes, we know that Jared will take a hit and maybe Ivanka for mislabeling her lipstick color in her line of cosmetics. And that will cause you tards to go into overdrive.

    And while the prosecutor is trying to crucify mannafort we may also find out some things that the government does not want us to know- of which there are many. For instance, the judge has already told the prosecutor that he wants to see Muellers charging authorization document in fully unredacted form. And as we all know by now, if the DOJ has redacted something it is to protect their arses and has nothing to do with national security. Of course they can always just tell the judge they are not going to provide it. Let me know how that works out.

  4. This judge must have lived an exemplary life. Otherwise the Deep State would have destroyed him for not following the plan.

    The list of "true conservatives" who inexplicably went off the rails is a long one. David Souter and John Roberts come to mind. Jeff Sessions.

    I won't need to, we will all know as soon as Mueller's investigation is over. I'll let you in on a little secret. These investigations end in indictments; they don't begin with them. And none of us know the full panoply of Mueller's information.

    The time to judge whether the investigation is a 'witch hunt ' or not will be when the investigation is concluded; not at the mid-point. There are too reasons why the investigation could take what seems like an extraordinarily long time.* The first is that there is nothing there, and it really is a 'witch hunt' and the investigators are doggedly trying to turn up something so they don't end up looking like fools. I'll let you figure out what the second reason might be.

    *It doesn't seem so long to me because Watergate is as fresh in my mind as though it were Yesterday. That investigation took about two years from the beginning to when Tricky Dick strolled out to the Green Helicopter and waved goodbye. This one, since it involves foreign intelligence as well as domestic and even more suspects could take a lot longer. Gird your Loins!

    Ha ha ha. Shouldn't you wait for the Judges ruling to decide whether he is 'following the plan'?

    That's obviously a concern to Mueller, however there is a critical difference between the impact of the current investigation on the 2018 Congressional election and that of the Hillary investigation during the 2016 election. Trump nor any of the main characters in the Mueller investigation won't be running for office in 2018!

    Because Hillary was running for president at the time of the investigation .. . when Comey, mistakenly as it turned out, thought the investigation of Hillary's emails was complete he felt an obligation to announce the findings before the election. If the FBI was not going to recommend prosecution to DOJ then he believed the country should know that. I think he made the right decision at the time given the information he had. Then when Wieners lap top turned up, the investigation had to be reopened. Now he looks like a fool to have spoken too soon, but only if you don't place yourself in his shoes. Then you may see it differently.

    By the time Trump runs again he'll have been proven pure as the driven snow and the Mueller investigation will have resulted in absolutely no harm to his 2020 campaign. Mueller will have been run out of town on rails having been revealed as a hopeless lackey of the 'Deep State', and Trump will have been re-elected in a landslide! (cough, cough).

    P.S. You may not have noticed, but Mueller has been 'in a dark period' throughout this investigation. There is no possibility that is going to change. We won't, probably in our lifetimes, know the full panoply of information he has turned up. But we'll eventually learn of the relevant bits when his report is issued to the DOJ and to Congress... Little morsels have emerged as they have been parts of public indictments. For example, Manafort's Tax Evasion, the specific names of Russian Hackers, etc.

    On May 8, 2017, President Trump announced his intent to nominate Friedrich to serve as a United States District Judge of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, to a seat vacated by Reggie Walton who assumed senior status on December 31, 2015.[6][7] She was formally nominated on June 7, 2017.[8] On July 25, 2017, the Senate Judiciary Committee held a hearing on her nomination.[9] Her nomination was reported out of committee by voice vote on September 14, 2017.[10] On November 16, 2017, the U.S. Senate voted 93–4 to invoke cloture on Friedrich's nomination.[11] On November 27, the Senate voted 97–3 to confirm her to the District Court.[12] She received her judicial commission on December 1, 2017.

    Better hope she doesn't owe Trump some loyalty
