Juliette Kayyem Prediction: Mueller will deliver Russia investigation by Thanksgiving

"Kayyem was prompted to make her prediction by the buzz surrounding a story about how Hillary Clinton’s campaign funded what would eventually become the famous “Trump-Russia Dossier” that surfaced in January."

"Kayyem speculated that the pace of stories critical of Hillary Clinton represents “a recognition by the White House team” that Mueller is getting close to something substantive as a result of his investigation."

“This is so close to the Oval Office now, if not in the Oval Office, that all of this [dossier news] to me is just background noise to what Mueller is going to deliver,” she said. “This is more than an obstruction charge. There is something big underlying the obstruction.”

Kayyem is well respected national security expert - on CNN - well connected nationally. She has had other predictions (and doused predictions of others) - proven correct.

i'd be more likely to buy it if she hadn't supplied a reason, lol!

but if she's basing the timing on trying to make sense of the stream of lies and smears coming out of the white house, ok, good luck with that.

If anything happens to the bloated fascista at all, it will surely be a happy day.

Until then.... I will garner hope that our Democracy, and those who are truly patriots will survive this awful turmoil.

Ironically, an old Russian saying comes to mind: "Hope dies last".

that can stand. In the way of impeachment.
Of course, that will take about 3 more years to gather all that information, so maybe some Democratc billionaire can finance hiring more staff for him.

But will have that bottle of Prosecco on stand by just in case we are treated to the video proof of tRump being carried kicking and screaming from the White House. What a happy day that would be. Not that it would immediately undo all the damage he has done. But at least it might stop the hemorrhage. I see lots of angst, turmoil and unrest if that happens, but gee, don’t we ALREADY have that?

but not a complete Russia investigation.

Of course, the Manafort indictment may be so detailed that it would show obvious links leading all the way to the top. In a way, that could reveal a lot.

promised me impeachment hearings for my birthday.

So if this is true, nothing will be done because it is a holiday. Back to work and republicans will have to "study" and investigate Mueller's findings. With Christmas and New Year's break on the horizon. On target for my Feb birthday.

That is, if this is true. Barring that the only thing trump can do to get kicked out of office....is shoot Bannon.

Anyone who is getting excited in advance for something from Mueller is going to be disappointed.

Whatever he uncovers, it will not remove Trump from office. More likely than not, it will just result in a several day shitstorm accompanied by deranged tweets.......and then nothing will happen.

Prepare yourself for this. Everyone needs to stay focused on 2018. It may be the last chance this country has to step back from the abyss.

Mueller isn't going to just drop off the report and go home. He's clearly building up cases against a number of Trump people, namely Manafort, Flynn, Page, and hopefully Kushner (if not more).

My guess is that the first public statement from Mueller is related to an indictment of one of those guys, and won't just be a report of all of his findings - which I totally agree will probably just fade away after a few days of news coverage.

There are other tracks as well, but seems pretty solid from news that Manafort, Kushner, Cohen, maybe Don Jr. and Ivanka have some explaining to do.
