One thing people need to remember, the truth means nothing when it's put up against politics. Politics WINS every time and that's beyond sad.

Our political system is on a downward spiral, to what is the question...
I don't think Trump wants to fire Mueller because Trump feels he will be exonerated. Some congressional hot heads might want to but so what.

Mr. Trump is unable to directly fire Mr. Mueller, unless he wants to rollback the regulations which prevent him from doing so.

He can however create his own version of Mr. Nixon's 'Saturday Night Massacre' (i.e. fire Mr. Rosenstein & so on ...)

Representatives Matt Gaetz of Florida, Andy Biggs of Arizona, & Louie Gohmert of Texas introduced a resolution about a month ago & calling for Mr. Mueller to recuse himself. Although who knows where the heck they're coming from? Are they laying the groundwork for a Trump-branded 'Saturday Night Massacre' or just plain old obstructing justice?

How did that work out? Oh wait, Nunes was found to have done NOTHING wrong or illegal.

Yeah, Schiff is the picture of non-partisanship and honesty...
Nunes headed the house investigation, yes running over to Trump to give him updates on what is supposed to be an independent investigation is most certainly wrong, but it's not illegal. You have a different definition of "wrong"'


That is some low threshold claiming it's not illegal.

A lie, repeated often enough, becomes the truth.

A page right out of the Goebbels playbook.

I think they're just frustrated about all the stuff coming out about Page, Strzok, the Ohrs, McCabe, etc. Makes me mad, too.

This has been going on at least since the 60's. Nothing new. You just have to have faith that the good people will win in the end. They are not getting away with anything. We can smell a skunk and the swamp stinks.

If it's not Illegal then it's not wrong. Your opinion (nor mine for that matter) really means nothing on that account.

Turn on the light, and the cockroaches scurry.

Where are you finding such pablum?
There is NO Democratic move against Rosenstein, but rather they are supportive of him!
The bunch that have been indicted by Mueller &/or pleaded GUILTY already are the real cockroaches.
If you plead guilty, you are a CRIMINAL!

Some of us are not fooled by such antics & know exactly what they are really hoping to accomplish!
Russia is working frantically to save their puppet. You'll see the same video posted in a variety of RW sites everywhere.

I seem to recall the OP loving Comey stepping into the investigation along with Mueller, and then.... he hated them.
Same with Trump. Singing Comey's praises until he got too close to the truth of the Trump campaign.

Yep. They are working overtime. I smell another indictment on it's way.
