I'm not making any comment until I get to read the full report, and I'm still confident that will happen.

it got some press, but there were so many bombshells coming out from the Impeachment inquiry and giuliani's goons (happened like a day after) that it was hard to digest more than 10 news items a day

The report corroborates past findings that's the problem…no big headlines to run
There were GOP people on this committee too…but the party line at the GOP is protect the president, so that means, we can't have any focus that might be on Russia and the elections

and the GOP redoubled it's efforts to 'investigate the investigators" which now has evolved into "Where’s the Whistleblower?" and the "House is not following the 'rules'"

George Conway's tweet on this was spot on
George Conway @gtconway3d
“The bank’s being robbed!” You take your phone, and you tweet at the NYPD that there’s a bank robbery in progress. (That’s hearsay, by the way.) The cops come, they interview the witnesses, they get video of the crime, and they even get confessions from the robbers.

They don’t talk to you. And they don’t need to. They have all the evidence they need.

For the same reason, Congress doesn’t need to talk to the whistleblower. They have many other witnesses. They have the memo of your call. And you, Rudy, and Mulvaney have all confessed.

this thread was getting dusty…in all the coronavirus frenzy…this might have gotten missed

BREAKING:  Dems are going to get the unredacted material from The Mueller Report.

not a bit.  i mean, they're not going to find anything game-changing in there.  i'm sure they'll find a few embarrassing details and they'll attempt to weaponize it, but what the hell is going to stick to teflon don?  nothing so far, why would that change?

SCOTUS being difficult

The Supreme Court on Wednesday denied a request from House Democrats for immediate access to redacted grand jury materials from former special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe.

I cannot believe you take this Court seriously still


They are never going to do anything to endanger Trump..same on taxes which you posted about

Think of it as a Republican court..that is what it is

well I don't know…I kinda take them seriously…but you are right

Although this makes me feel better ….

As expected, SCOTUS just granted DOJ’s request to file a formal request to block release of Mueller’s grand jury materials.

The GREAT NEWS is that the filing is due in 10 days (June 1), indicating that SCOTUS *will* hear this case in July and decide it before the election.
Keep in mind you usually get 90 days to file for a writ of cert. SCOTUS gave DOJ only ten days. The House is seeking Mueller’s grand jury materials as part of an impeachment inquiry and the Congressional term is ending, so SCOTUS is treating the case with the urgency is deserves.

It has went largely unnoticed but their refusal to hear that case about qualified immunity for police officers who STOLE items listed on a search warranty is possibly the worst, most catastrophic "ruling" since Citizen's United.

Justice Dept is quietly seeking a 50-year bar to release of grand jury material - a rule which, if adopted by the courts, would keep Mueller-Trump records secret until 2069…
