Discussion: DOJ Says Acting AG Matther Whitaker Is Now Overseeing Robert Mueller's Probe

When they’re in session.

Hoping that Mueller is prepared for this. He is a smart man, and certainly cannot be entirely surprised.

And never forget that the scum sucking republicans refused to do anything to protect Mueller because they said he was never in danger of being fired by Drumpf.

@maggieNYT
Trump allies are deeply perplexed by his move against Sessions, given that it all but guarantees an investigation by House judiciary.

All of them, Katie!

These are not master planners. This is not the commencement of a brilliantly-staged, complex, many-moving-parts blah blah blah. This is panicked idiots doing panicked idiot things. It is scary for us, but it probably will not make life better for them.

John Heileman just said he expected a full con crisis within the next 48 hours.

He wasn’t mincing words about what is driving these actions and wants the rest of the media to not mince words either.

That could be plan B. Congress could leak it to the press if they felt nothing else could be done. That’s not Meuller’s way, though. He very much :by the book" and doesn’t leak anything to the press, ever.
