>>Trump seems powerless, very strange<<
Huber is on the case with Horowitz. Huber reports, and has reported, directly to Sessions. Sessions reports to Trump. Trump is anything but powerless; he’s in charge of the entire operation.
At least that’s my take on it. And it all started when Trump was informed by Rogers (?) that Trump Towers was bugged and that he should move his transition team to new quarters. Trump did so the very next day.
I think the whole thing is about to implode. Reports say Rod Rosenstein signed at least one of the FISA applications requesting wiretap on Trump team. This makes him either a co-conspirator or a material witness. In either case if the reports are true he should have recused himself. He violated legal and ethical standards by staying on to appoint Mueller.
From which follows more problems. Rod didn’t recuse himself and instead appointed Mueller. Mueller is neck deep in all kinds of muck. For example he was FBI director, will he do an honest job or try to protect his people, agency, reputation? As director Mueller knew all about the Russian bribes that resulted in $145 million to CF and the sale of Uranium One. That is just two of a whole slew of conflicts.
It doesn’t matter if it is true or not - all that matters is that there is potential impropriety due to conflicting interests. How do we know that Rod and Mueller are not active participants in an ongoing conspiracy to obstruct justice among other crimes, covering up their misdeeds as officials in high office?
Then add in the legal technicalities for example Rod needed to state a crime for the special prosecutor to investigate but failed to do so. He appointed Mueller to go on a fishing expedition which is abuse of power (at least) and further raises suspicion that Mueller and Rod have ulterior, personal motives. The close relationship between the parties is another conflict. Rod claims only he has the power to fire Mueller which is an affront to the office of POTUS. And there is a pattern here of the FBI going soft on Hillary (and the DNC) many times, whitewashing crimes going back before Comey was director.
Put all this together and I think you have a solid reason to appoint a second special prosecutor to investigate this cabal of Rod, Mueller, Comey, McCabe, Strzok, the 16 people who met with McCabe to plot a conspiracy against Trump, and CIA director Brennan and possibly others in the Obama DOJ. That may not happen, and in any case I think this will collapse under its own weight. If they perjured themselves, obstructed justice, falsified evidence etc then they will probably be unable to hide it and justice will eventually come around - they all probably know this already, too.
It’s real simple: Call a Press Conference and tell the director of the FBI he has 24 hours to turn over ALL documents requested by Congress and IF HE REFUSES to do so, he will be fired for refusing to be transparent and open with the Public.
By framing the argument as such you FORCE the Swamp to defend someone involved in a cover up.
