When the GOP shuts down the government this week, does that mean MUELLER and team

are shut down?

We need to pay attention to what they are DOING, not what they are saying.

Is every single white republican a racist? DUH -NOT news! Well what he did as in shithole is news, is important but right now we need to focus on what they are DOING, not what the chief traitor is saying.

So I expect that Mueller's office will continue. At worst, he will lose some clerical support.

would be strange if before when government shut down that all FBI and / or CIA investigations etc. stopped, so kind of makes sense that these would continue...
