Trump is already there when he did to Comey...and Yates...and Bhara...what's one more really lol. He apparently can't remove Mueller from what was reported earlier, so it won't matter.

Yeah. A lot of 'em would be thrilled if Trump goes down. They just don't wanna be the ones to do it.
This sentiment is silly. If they appointed Jason Chaffetz or some other shithead I could see it but Mueller? C'mon.

CNN restating what bears repeating here.
Mueller now has the power to investigate literally anything related to Trump. He can call for tax returns, investigate his businesses, subpoena anything and everything, or anything else.
He has the power to define the bounds of the investigation and can bring charges to anyone he finds to be guilty of anything.

Is that from sources close to Comey or speculation from guests?
Wow, this dude seems legit. Like an actual real life protagonist in a political thriller.
LOL who in their right mind wouldn't jump at a once in a lifetime opportunity like this? This is a no-brainer move, not charity.

Yep, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. You'll (quite possibly) be able to put "taking down a president and possibly an entire political party" on your resume and remembered quite favorably by history.

Don't kill me, but what is this?
I wouldn't be surprised. He basically got thrown under the bus when the news broke last week until Trump went off script in the Lester Holt interview.

They have no reason to come out against it, and they might think this will give them some relief from bad news
I think they're wrong on that though, I don't think the bad news will ease up, but some pressure was let off them to do their own investigation.

There is exactly zero chance Mueller would go along with that.
That's damn good.gif

GOP sources. But it makes sense. Now Mueller controls the investigation, so it's better if he gets Comey's info quietly as opposed to making a show of the investigation.
Wow, Rosenstein can actually do that?

It's all pipes, as far as I'm concerned. Even journos if they post on twitter, wait until a reputable paper publishes first. It usually doesn't take that long either, WaPo is breaking most of what we're reading ahead of people on twitter.

If you think he's going to be in on it you might as well give up now cause we couldn't have asked for a better pick.

Yep. They're going to work hard.
Maybe he'll offer him a lifetime supply of free Trump Steaks.

It sounds like Mueller cannot be fired by the President. Meuller can also indict, press charges, etc. Way more than the special committee that the Senate could even do.
