Of course, the risk is that in retaliation Mueller will break into your house at 3:00am and feel up your wife until you comply.

Mueller needs to be FROG MARCHED to a PRISON before he DESTROYS any more INNOCENT LIVES! HE IS OUT of CONTROL!!!!

[bboop]

Where’s the ‘Hell no! Come and get it!” bunch?? If one takes a stand, I bet others would follow.

[montag813]

Fearing a subpoena, the witnesses have complied with the request and have given over their phones

WTF??? What is to "fear" from a subpoena? The Stasi had nothing on Herr Mueller.

[Sgt_Schultze]

Still, it’s directed only at DJT campaign employees, even as we KNOW HRC campaign did conspire with a foreign agent to solicit information from Russian agents intending to influence the election.

[SaveFerris]

Apparently that’s never bothered him before.

Ya wonder how people like him and some Nazis got to live out their lives after doing stuff like that on purpose.

CNBC......meh

[animal172]

I would tell them to PUAR. P**s up a rope.

[WASCWatch]

I’d bet that lots of people have told Mueller to “F/U”. I know I would.

[WASCWatch]

Me: “Mueller, you know about that 5 Amendment thingy? Go f&(k yourself.”

[Two Kids' Dad]

Or just smash them with a hammer like Illary did. Right, Mueller?

Dawddam travesty that this clown is still employed.

========================================================================

Seeing what has gone on so far, they were fearing financial ruin trying to fight it in court.

This unconstitutional "special counsel" isn't out to get the truth....they are out to destroy people associated with Trump.

[Hugin]

Smash them with hammers. We now know that’s not a crime.

[Zeppo]

Looks like a “fishing expedition” worthy of the Stasi...

I remember well when the FBI and the DOJ in general used those same investigative techniques, including the 3 AM jack-booted-thug raids, when investigating the Hillary Clinton email scandals.

Oh, wait - my mistake - I don’t remember those things having been used at all.

Never mind...

[richardtavor]

Just tell him you smashed them with a hammerlike Hillary did..

[jazminerose]

No, no, no, no, no. Let him subpoena everything. Force him to take his make believe cases to trial. This jackass is completely out of control.

At this point, I have no doubt that there are plenty of fine litigation attorneys who would be delighted to work pro bono on these cases. It’s great free publicity.

And there’s always GoFundMe.

[The Antiyuppie]

My phone would have been lost in a boating accident. Near the Marianas Trench.

[jazminerose]

Meant “criminal defense attorneys”. It’s really hard for me to remember that the Mule is pretending there are crimes he’s chasing.

[Gator113]

They ask for permission when on Fishing Trip Without Probable Cause.

Seeing what has gone on so far, they were fearing financial ruin trying to fight it in court.

In that court, any person can Pro-Se (without an attorney) file up to 6 months worth of adjournments, challenges and delays for $50 a pop. And the court rules specify at least 180 days of delays must be honored "by rule."
