How Many Indictments Will Drop Before The Government Shutdown Occurs?

There seems to be a real desire for Trump and his flunkies to shut the government down.


If this is some perverted attempt to stop the Mueller investigation... Will indictments drop beforehand?

If so, who do you think will be targeted?

1. I would love it if there were a bunch of them

2. Any shut down does not affect law enforcement or the Justice Department.

Mueller will continue doing whatever he is doing.

3. The shutdown will not shut down the investigation.

It will continue.

4. I thought grand juries were unable to be held, since the courts would be on a skeleton crew.

5. The federal courts will remain open and most business will be conducted

as usual. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-fiscal-courts/u-s-federal-courts-to-remain-open-if-government-shuts-down-idUSBRE98T1AB20130930

The Mueller investigation will also continue. http://www.cnn.com/2018/01/16/politics/justice-department-special-counsel-shutdown/index.html

6. Would it affect anything if indictments were unsealed DURING the shut down?

Just asking

7. Probably none

based on the odds. But we never know.

8. None.

9. I saw a graphic of essential services on MSNBC this morning
