(23,313 posts)Taking a deep breath here. Mueller is an expert on crime families.

(70,501 posts)No doubt he has flipped many already so he can get Trump. And he also
has many sealed indictments ready to go if Trump gets close to firing him.

(988 posts)Republicans in the house have joined the coup. They are ok with a Dictator Trump as long as they are in power.
They would not have a problem changing the rules and perhaps our constitution to favor their brand.

(23,224 posts)McConnell sold us out when Scalia died (maybe before that, even.) Ryan sold out when he endorsed AnusMouth, the rest fell in like the sheep-f&uckers they are. Scalise, Nunes and Rohrabacher are special cases--they were agents probably before Dwump was.

(7,754 posts)felonies under state law and for which Trump cannot pardon people. Just today we read that Kushner and Co. filed false paperwork claiming they had NO rent controlled properties in buildings they bought when in fact they had hundreds so they could quickly sell properties for huge profits. That's illegal and they have been caught. That violate NY laws.
I bet there are many, many, many of these that Mueller now has ready to go.

(12,882 posts)that the courts have been rigged. I hope to hell there's enough time in history to prosecute the Trumps and all their complicit cabal. But I've learned to NOT take anything for granted anymore.

(988 posts)What happens though if Trump has the FBI and DOJ start investigating the states and use marshall law to lock up people that dont tow their line.
This is real and its a real test to our democracy. GOP members seem to not care if this happens.

(47,419 posts)I have assumed for quite some time that Mueller is light years ahead of the rest of us and has prepared for every possible contingency. It would appear that his entire life has prepared him for this moment in history.
