B-News: Mueller to break silence at 11:00 a.m

 
Casper 2019-05-29 13:35:15 

Let’s see what he says.

 
Casper 2019-05-29 13:42:39 

State what you think Mueller will say.

Will it be pro-Trump (i.e. take the air out of the Impeachment balloon) or pro-Impeachment ( i.e. give more impetus to the Impeachment drive)?

How about telling the truth of the matter?

 
sudden 2019-05-29 13:48:06 

In reply to Casper

Mueller is a skunt. he should have recommended either indictment or impeachment for obstruction of justice.

he bottled it mate just like Comey- pack of American jokers

This could be explosive either way ----but could it be sterile, neutered? Interesting development - Does AG Barr still have his hands on the scale --- he is still Mueller’s boss

Interesting

Yep. What's more after he speaks he can no longer deny the House request for him to show up at their hearing

I wouldn't expect much from Mueller but at least glad that he is showing a pulse. I suspect it will be wrapped in Lawyer speak and leave you wondering why he bothered.

I wonder if its the republican Amash town hall meeting yesterday that raised him from the dead. Either way lets see what he says.

He can't do that anymore. He would be crucified by the left and all those knowledgeable legal experts who have concluded that Trump obstructed justice.

But, as I have stated numerous times, a Republican is a Republican is a Republican. I trust Republicans as far as I can throw them, Mueller notwithstanding.

 
carl0002 2019-05-29 14:23:15 

After reading the Guardian about his statement I am even more convinced that he wont say anything of significance. He is only making the statement to avoid testifying in public. Let see. Really hope I am wrong though...cuz it said that its the statement that he drafted 3 indictments then trash them, that is resulting in this statement. Which could mean that the Whitehouse could find it more favorable and he gave them the heads up.

A statement of about 8 minutes expected. Let's hope it is not fluff or a waste of airtime, but something concrete.

For once you are correct wink
Could not charge him as per US Constitition BUT could not exonerate him. Ball tossed to Congress and or until he leaves office to then be indicted. Clearly he obstructed justice which is a crime.

After he leave office but he certainly can be impeached.

Its now up to Congress to do its job - Mueller has spoken - there is underlyng evidence, but it was not his call for the charging of the IDIOT. The justice dept does have the evidence to CONVICT Dump when he leaves Office!!! OR Congress can do it ASAP.

 
nitro 2019-05-29 15:42:16 

"We did not, however, make a determination as to whether the President did commit a crime," he said.

Cannot be charged for obstruction when there was no crime. lol

That would be DOJ's job.

The Congress can only impeach or recommend criminal charges.

Mueller OPENED the door even CLEARER to CONGRESS to do your JOBS .... impeach the asshole.

Nonsense. He clearly obstructed justice because he EXPECTED to be charged. He clearly didn't know which way the investigation was going to go.

 
YoungWarrior 2019-05-29 16:04:51 

This is what the orange clown just wrote:

Nothing changes from the Mueller Report. There was insufficient evidence and therefore, in our Country, a person is innocent. The case is closed! Thank you.


What a moron!
lol

 
sudden 2019-05-29 16:06:05 

“If we had confidence that the president clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said that,” Mueller continued. “Under long-standing department policy, a president cannot be charged with a federal crime while he is in office. That is unconstitutional. ... Charging the president with a crime was therefore not an option we could consider.”


Mueller is a real wuss. if you think the man committed a crime just say so. why couched it in such language when most Americans dont understand anything but plain speak

He is saying that the President could not have defended himself since he would not have been indicted.

The solution would have been to prepare a separate report or guidelines for Congress.

 
nick2020 2019-05-29 16:24:23 

In reply to sudden

Because he does not want to influence the people who are to make that decision.

 
Runs 2019-05-29 16:27:02 

SC could have said, we did not find any collusion and we could not conclude or charge with obstruction, however AG Barr and Deputy AG Rosenstein concluded that he did not and we accept that. So in all intents and purposes this is over.

That he did not say so, IS PROFOUND.

 
birdseye 2019-05-29 16:30:18 

In reply to black

He is saying that the President could not have defended himself since he would not have been indicted.
he really said --- why say a person commits a crime if you cant then go ahead and charge him because justice rules preclude doing so --- He did say, emphatically, that if he could say the president ‘did not’ commit a crime – then he would have said so

 
sudden 2019-05-29 16:30:59 

In reply to black

clearly that is not what he said.

he said in plain words - if it was any other person but a sitting president he would have been indicted. if there was no evidence so to do i would have said so clearly. but there is a longstanding policy that a sitting president cannot be indicted but that does not affect impeachment which is our way of removing a sitting president for high crimes and misdemeanours

Yes.....so he is leaving it up to Congress but then the Repubs would put a different spin on it. The whole thing makes little sense.

It's not just Amash, all the Repubs know Trump obstructed justice but he (Amash) is the only one brave enough to speak out.

The Dems have to uphold the Constitution as this batch of GOP obviously will not.

Yes, of course it is. Will a Prosecutor refuse to bring the case to trial because he thinks the jury will acquit?

Such thinking is insane.

Judge Napolitano of Faux News says

Judge Nap - “Effectively what Bob Mueller said is we had evidence that he committed a crime but we couldn't charge him because he's the president of United States -- This is even stronger than the language in his report” Judge Napolitano said.

“I think basically he’s saying the president can't be indicted otherwise we would have indicted him and we're not going to charge him with a crime because there's no forum in which for him… to refute the charges. But we could not say that he didn't commit a crime. Fill in the blank because we believe he did.”

 
carl0002 2019-05-29 17:19:22 

I cant tell which is the bigger wuss. Mueller or the Democrats and Nancy Pelosi. Democrats have all that they need to impeach, kick out, kick to the curb the president, further bolstered by Mueller statement today. To do nothing just for political expediency is an even bigger crime. But in a sense when Mueller sees what Barr and Trump doing with the Intelligence and law Enforcement agencies he aught to be a bit more forthcoming. For the country in which he lives and whose global reputation and leadership going down the drain and the general lawlessness of the administration, it aught to give him greater pause- as choosing not to say more, for whatever reason, put his country at greater risk.

 
carl0002 2019-05-29 17:26:41 

And I not sure what can be done about William Barr. I am not sure if they have a special Jail for him. I am not sure if he can be sanctioned or punished for the lies and misdirection that he has perpetuated on the American people. But he can not go unscathed and this is the second time in his career that he has done it and I hope it has finally caught up with him.

He can be impeached by the House and I don't think they need the Senate's approval for such action.

Yes, the process is virtually identical to impeaching the President but the Vice President will preside over the Senate in this instance.
