The Robert Mueller Investigation


Hugo Stiglitz

Recommended Posts

So I haven’t been paying attention since I got to the office.  But my favorite part of an early GOPer’s questioning was his implication that Trump was treated “below the law” because he was not presumed innocent when the DOJ believed he committed a crime but determined he could not be indicted solely because he is the one unindictable person in the US.

Yeah, that’s kind of the definition of “above the law,” asshole.

Jesus, Cline.

I guess, if you ask Cline, every non-conviction ever is a prosecutorial mistake. 

It's not too big of a mistake if it has to go all the way to SCOTUS.

Cline, reminds me of Ben Stein in Ferris Bueller. Mueller,Mueller,anyone, Mueller

Well My President's son Eric's girlfriend's brother heard from this tweet who knows this Russian who is going with this facebook intern who said there was no collusion last night at Mar-a-Lago.  So I guess it's pretty serious.

Nothing is more depressing to me than the realization that tens of millions of people genuinely believe that the Republicans on display today have a better grasp on truth/issues/reality than the other side.

They both can read and understand the report.  Except for Lesko.  She probably colored on the report in crayons.

Sadly he isn't. He is feeding the base perfectly. Trump's a victim!  Even slobbed Barr's knob for good measure. 

You'll pardon me if I don't assign much weight to "the base" and their thoughts on what is obviously a fucking circus.

So is their contention that no one can be objective and ethical  in their professional activities? 

Yep. But it's mostly projection. They are so completely unethical and beholden to their party that they can't understand how ethical people operate.

Is there going to be a single Republican who asks honest questions rather than acting as Trump's personal defense attorney?

The bar for them to clear is can this be used for sophistry- very low brow sophistry.

Just about any quote will do for those who knowingly (around here) or otherwise (the cattle at a Trump rally) believe any answer is a sufficient answer.

So far, these demagogues and liars have: angry Dem prosecutors; Trump-hating prosecutors since two investigators dared to have political opinions; Mueller didn't indict so the president is exonerated; Dems want a do-over.

It will keep the lying cunts of the remaining GOP in office and safer from prosecution. Who cares if it takes scouring any niche in your soul to exterminate integrity? 

Trump delenda est.

GOP delenda est.

Fascists delenda est.

That's pretty much a foundation of the GOP platform now:   If you don't agree with me, you can't be objective.  You're also not a God fearing, apple pie lovin' Murhkin.

So they are supposed to look up the political affiliation of every attorney and only hire Republicans? And that's not biased?

Well, ignore Barr, Mitch McConnell's wife and all the lobbyists heading departments or cabinet positions, Supreme Court justices and judges...

I turned it off - couldn't do it anymore. I feel sorry for Robert Mueller the dude just wants to go away - his report didn't do anything negative to trump and I get why democrats want to try to drag it out of him that he is a big bad meanie, but what I don't understand is why the republicans are being complete fucking cunts to him.
