I keep thinking this, every day. In a totally negative way.
ā€œThey would have been good Nazis. This is how it works!! The GOP would have been GOOD NAZIS.ā€

Which is an oxymoron. On steroids.

ā€œI hope so,ā€ Flake responded.

Hope is not a plan, asshole.

I suspect Robert Mueller is a lot smarter man than Donald Trump. I suspect Robert Mueller has thought about the possibility of being fired by Donald Trump quite a bit and talked about it with his ā€œdream teamā€
of crack federal prosecutors.
I believe there now are indictments that are on file in federal court under seal. I’m confident that there is a very unpleasant surprise awaiting Donald Trump if he fires Robert Mueller. Some of those indictments, I suspect, will be unsealed and served. Jared Kushner, Donald Trump jr., Carter page, Roger Stone and others all may have a very bad day. I also suspect that Mr. Mueller has a draft report to Congress on impeachment that is ready to go, and has been updated regularly.

Actually an IG investigation into the FBI’s actions would keep Trump from firing Rosenstein and/or Mueller until the findings were in, thus buying Mueller valuable time. And most unbiased observers don’t believe that Mueller and his team are doing anything that they shouldn’t be given their orders from Rosenstein.

Yeah, that’s kind of the big tell regarding Flake. He could start caucusing with the Democrats if he really did want to stop Trump. But he doesn’t. Because he is still looking at running office down the road.

Remember, Flake is no moderate. He came to office as a fire breathing tea partier. Its just that the TP from those years actually looks moderate through Trumper glasses.

Going to be interesting to see the Attorney General, technically the special counsel’s boss, charged with perjury by the special counsel.

Hell, he wouldn’t have to caucus with the Dems to oppose Trump. He could still vote for the stupid tax bill, while voting against Trump’s insane appointments and for protecting Mueller from being fired. But he never does, on any single thing.

ā€œDo you really think that [Senate Majority Leader] Mitch McConnell and [House Speaker] Paul Ryan will stand up and say ā€˜No, Mr. President, you can’t do this’?ā€
then we’ll take action.’ I think that people see that as a massive red line that can’t be crossed.ā€

So this just might be a kick start to ending presnits reign but concerning the other subject of Assault rifles and numerous dead kids, not so much of a red line.
GOP hypocrisy to the extreme…

ā€œLater in the show, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) reaffirmed to Tapper what
he’s said before: If Trump fires Mueller, ā€œthat would be the beginning
of the end of his presidency, because we’re a rule of law nation.ā€ā€
…
Beginning of the end???
Where have you been Lindsey?? Under a rock? This presidency is already in flames fellah.
Sorta like this…

Republicans urge and for sis on the word urge. Is that all you can do is urge him. Really in that is why people referred to the Republicans as deplorable’s. Lock stepping party line hypocrites. You stand for nothing of value.

The Kochs have bought the administration, lock stock and barrel. This article describes that the Kochs have owned Pompeo, former CIA goon, for over 20 years now, and now State Dept. Goon, and how the Kochs got their lock-step Nazi boy Pompeo into State:

No Lindsey, we used to be a rule of law nation but now we are something different. We are a nation ruled by oligarchs that pay people like you and Trump to lie to voters like me. Trump just isn’t as good at it as Putin. Give the world of Citizen’s United time. We will produce our own very popular oligarch leader complete with state run Fox media and a loss of recognition of the importance of the truth.

If you can - click for the embedded video - two things - Gowdy tells Chris Wallace that the Executive Branch investigation is more thorough and should be what people believe over the House Intel (he’s referring to Mueller).

He also alludes to motivations - like someone wanting to run for Senate in California who has never met a camera he doesn’t try to get on (or something like that.) Is he refering to Nunes, Schiff or someone else?

Indeed if anyone understands politicized house hearings - it’s Gowdy. Interesting.

Yes, this should be the Dems’ mantra. If there’s nothing to hide, why not welcome the investigation with open arms?

Trump has no problem taking a dump on the red line. And then ordering Repubs to eat it.

Ha Ha HAHAHAHAHA! Rethuglkicans tnot acting like Kleptocrats?

Inconceivable!

Komard tRump hasn’t raped the treasury enough?

Not for the Keptocrats, and their leaders Lie-ian Ryan and Yurtle the Trutle.

The raids of the treasury will continue until We the people force them to give they money that have taken from us back while serving time in Gitmo.

Trump is going to fire / have someone fire Mueller in the next three weeks.
Trump is brazen - and calculates that all of the recent antics have blurred the edges & while it may piss-off some GOP leaders - they will fuss but totally fold - his reading of the situation will be that they ultimatly won’t have the courage to cross him on this - because the lunatic right-wing base will savagely turn on them ( the lunatic right wing wants Mueller tried & executed for treason for simply even gathering evidence)

I think you’re being a tad unrealistic here, but I would agree that Mueller has given huge thought to and is thoroughly prepared for Trump trying to fire him. I say trying because I do think it will take the lid off Pandora’s Box.
