(31,941 posts)But not for long. Judges do not like sealed indictments and will not let them stand for long. There was never any evidence sealed indictments in the DC district had anything to do with Mueller's investigation.

(5,268 posts)He said that Mueller's clerks have been seen carting off boxes of files and suggested that Mueller's team is closing up shop since GJ hasn't met for several weeks. Closing down only makes sense if Mueller is farming out everything to other jurisdictions since they just confiscated tons of Stone evidence on Jan 25 so there is no way the investigation is completely over.
I read that there were at least 20 other indictments by the same Grand Jury handed down Jan 23 or 24, so we can hope that relates to Mueller probe.

(11,949 posts)It was to investigate Russian meddling in the election and issues a report. He has the power to charge people, but getting Trump was not his assignment and so far most of the charges have been either Russians who meddled or Americans who lied to his investigators.
Way too many Democrats think Mueller is going to get Trump. Folks, that is not and never going to happen.
He may show information to make him less electable, but that is it.
We will only win at the ballot box. No other way.
Hopefully we are all working to make this happen.

(52,121 posts)by the time the report is actually made public and donnie is actually impeached and removed and/or indicted or whatever, he will already have served most of his term, if not all of it. he's already over the half-way mark anyway.
but donnie is just the most obvious symptom of the disease of out-of-control white supremacy that has gradually gone from discredited fringe with a minor presence in the republican party to completely taking over that party and significant elements of the media, most notably hate radio and foxnews. their agenda now completely dominates political discourse in america.
whether and when and how donnie goes, there will be others who try to tap that same toxic well. we will need to fight them as well.
