Is Trump Looking For An Excuse To Fire Mueller Before Hes Impeached?



A former White House attorney claims President Donald Trump is looking for an excuse to fire special counsel Robert Mueller in order to avoid being impeached next week.

In a tweet sent yesterday afternoon at 2:06 pm, Richard W. Painter wrote, “This entire thing about the dossier and the Clinton campaign is about trying to find an excuse to fire Mueller.”





In that tweet, Painter links to an editorial in the Los Angeles Times from Friday which seeks to downplay the recently-recycled news story about the Democratic National Committee’s (“DNC”) funding of now-controversial opposition research on then-candidate Trump–which was eventually collected into the now-infamous Steele dossier.

As defense analyst Carl Conetta noted in a post on Facebook earlier this week, the information about the dossier’s Democrat-linked funding has been public knowledge for quite some time.

The only apparent addition to the dossier’s origin story is that Clinton campaign and DNC attorney Marc E. Elias is no longer telling reporters they’re wrong and incorrect for reporting on the Democratic Party’s financial involvement in the dossier’s compilation.

Unless Vlad fires up the hot-line (probably already set to roll over to voice mail or its equivalent) while Cheeto Mussolini’s chasing his little white balls on the back-9 somewhere, he won’t act until Monday.

And since I don’t have cable/sat, I don’t know or care what’s playing on Fux Noise.

Stay tuned. Film at Eleven.
