I had a feeling something would leak from Mueller this week since the Fisa and unmasking stuff is gaining traction..

Is Weasel Mueller still collecting info on the Trump Team using Intelligence Community Tools?

As long as he uses “magic” words/phrases such as “to the best of my recollection”, “I don’t recall”, “if my memory is correct”, “I’m gong to have to check my records”, etc., he’ll be OK.

Mueller would love to trick Bannon into a faulty memory “perjury trap”.

If Mueller’s investigation really had any merit, Bannon would have been issued a subpoena the day after he left the White House.

But of course. They had nothing. Then Steve spoke. Be prepa red for this to dominate the news cycle for at least 2 weeks, to the exclusion of real news...

I’m sure Bannon’s IQ exceeds Mike Flynn’s IQ by at least 40 points, so I don’t think Bannon is going to fall for any nonsense here.

Particularly ironic because Steve told me in August that he was the “one person” in the administration who had no contacts at all with the Russkies and was safe from being called.

That would have to mean Bannon intends to show up at Capitol Hill today and refuse to say anything.

This article says Bannon got a subpoena from Mueller last week.

that dude is untrustworthy. I think there is a genuine risk of bannon turning on trump — either to save his own skin, or just for the hell of it.

we’ve seen it before.

Personally I think, at this point, Mueller's entire investigation is meaningless. Whether President Trump gets impeached or not, is going to come down to one thing, and one thing only, which party controls the House after the next election...

Or to put it another way, even if Mueller would clear President Trump of all wrongdoing, a Democrat House is still going to impeach him, even if it's some bogus and meaningless charge like "racism". And on the flip side, even if Mueller presented a laundry list of wrongdoing, a Republican house is going to say, thanks Bobby Boy and file away the report in file 13.

I don't know. He wasn't smart enough to keep his trap shut to Wolff. What's to keep him from blabbing more nonsense at this hearing?

>>Bannon’s IQ exceeds ...<<

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Which Bannon? He apparently has some kind of split personality.

Clearly this subpoena relates to the zany narrative that came out in that Wolff dude's book.

Bannon will have to be prepared to confirm or deny every quote that has been attributed to him in that book -- or maybe explain why the context was totally inaccurate.

He might have been in the same restaurant with a Russian....say....20 years ago.

Damn right it counts. That's the sh** they pulled on Sessions.
