Don't you think it's rather likely Dipshit and GOP already know Mueller

[Laura PourMeADrink]

Report contents. Or at least the major components?

Like Sessions and Whitaker or some repuke who got briefed probably told them?

If yes, then it might explain why GOP sychophants sticking by him?

1. no.

What I THINK is that too many people here are obsessing on the basis of absolutely no information.

9. I think too many people are very snippy and rude. so there's that too

2. not necessarily...

They can guess, but only muehler knows for sure. He isn't required to tell barr or whittaker what he has found. He only needs to get approval for specific acts like issuing subpoenas or seeking indictments.

Now that doesn't mean he hasn't been keeping them posted. But I strongly doubt he has given them drafts of his report.

So the white house may well know there is a lot of bad news, they probably haven't seen the text or structure. yet.

And a lot of what muehler has found is already tied up in redactions in court documents under seal. Those will eventually be unsealed and there is nothing barr can do to stop that.

3. Actually, I think we all know

unless we haven't been paying attention. Trump has confessed to--hell, bragged about--so many things Mueller is investigating that it's clear that his base doesn't care and the Republicans in congress don't either.

4. i think it's far more likely that donnie and his gang are so desperate to be done with mueller that

they are insisting that their wishes are reality and are eager to see those wishes on the news in the hopes that it pressures mueller into finishing prematurely, or that it makes people complain when mueller doesn't wrap it up quickly.

5. As the actual perpetrators of countless crimes, of course they know

Even if Mueller only captured half of their treason, they still know first-hand what's in that report...it's called memories.

7. Well

there is that little pesky fact. They would have to know what they did and when they did it. Mueller may not get every fact during the investigation, but they most certainly know as they were there.

[mercuryblues]

8. Exactly

They know what happened and who was involved. When they hear or read about witnesses being interviewed by Mueller they know what is potentially being revealed.

6. Nixon was named an unindicted co-conspirator and didn't know about it for several months

At least according to Woodward & Bernstein's The Final Days, Nixon and his lawyers only found about this more than 2 months later.

They were stunned, and they were furious, the key point being that they didn't know.

10. K&R, I have ... FULL ... confidence that Red Don ordered Mueller spied on and botted
