Muellers investigation was SHUT DOWN! I believe There is limited things the House can do. (i hope they choose to impeach BARR at some point here) After Mueller testifies MAYBE there will be more they can do. Bottom line is VOTE VOTE VOTE may be our ONLY option. WE cannot BLAME our leaders THAT'S for sure! Tough fight ahead but i really believe we will clean house in 2020!

(86,647 posts)and over the last couple days I keep having this thought;
The DoJ/Barr is obstructing Mueller from testifying before the House and as a DoJ employee, he has to obey that edict. But what if Mueller resigns? The questions don't have to be set to reveal anything he shouldn't AND he can just flat out say that they need to impeach and how they can obtain the info they need. The committee has powers, they just aren't going to show their hand on all counts as it gives the crooks ammunition.
I think this thing still rests with Mr. Mueller, at this point it's about what he says under oath.

(16,976 posts)This is the system we have. THEY know what they can and can't do. We can sit here and complain and fight i guess but that to me won't help anything.

The best advice that I heard came from Neal Katyal, defund the office of AG. Cut off the money to people who are obstructing.
As far as waiting for the 2020 election, even if Trump loses who says he is going to leave?
I don't think that enough Democrats are aware of how serious a situation we are in.
The let's wait to impeach crowd is playing right into Trump's hands.
God, I miss Al Franken.
