Mueller investigation near completion, acting AG Whitaker says
NBC News ^ | 01/28/2019 | By Dareh Gregorian

Posted on 01/28/2019 2:34:15 PM PST by Red Badger

Special counsel Robert Mueller has almost finished up his nearly two-year investigation into collusion and Russian interference in the 2016 election, the acting attorney general said Monday.

"The investigation is, I think, close to being completed, and I hope that we can get the report from [Special Counsel] Mueller as soon we — as possible," acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker said during a news conference after announcing criminal charges against one of China's largest telecommunications companies.

"I have been fully briefed on the investigation, and I look forward to director Mueller delivering the report, and I really am not going to talk about an open and ongoing investigation otherwise," he added.

This is a developing story. Check back for updates.

"And why did CNN know about the raid ahead of time?"

What an embarrassment to DOJ and law enforcement. A terrible distraction and unnecessary costs. A sad two years of our nation’s history.

Well, let’s put Mueller on the Vegas shooter case since the regular FBI has given up. I bet he can get a dozen indictments for the media to celebrate.... you know, like folks lying to investigators and such.

Two years and how many multi-millions and millions did this Dimocrat hack run up. With the Dims now in charge of the House of Fools, expect him to charge Trump with something, anything they can use to drag him through the mud for the next two years and come up with their hack trial to impeach him. This is what Nancy the slut lives for.

Section 3 - Treason. Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.

A large force could be assembled with an intent to overthrow our government or prevent enforcement of a law, in order to levy war. They follow through with the planned attack, but fail in their attempt.

In that case, we are not "in time of war", but an act of treason was indeed committed.

I think your example, although about as low as it can get when discussing allegiance to our constitution, would be classified as sedition and not treason. I still might like to meet the perpetrators in a dark alley with no working night vision cameras!

So maybe you know more about this subject than the late Charles Warren?

I can only conclude that you are, like Jeff Sessions, an Institutionalist, not a Constitutionalist.>>>>>>>

Yes, Institutionalism is a wide ranging cancer.

Session is an icon of “collegiality” who thinks that cowardice is the rule, rather than the death of Constitutional law.

Our Constitution was drafted in the ink of courage. Men like Sessions and Obama simply cannot read it properly. Its outside the realm of their very perception in their narrow little cowardly worlds.

I believe the old fashioned epithet would be “small minded.” My grand-pa would describe their conduct as “shaking like a dog $hitting razor blades.”

Agreed! All Mueller has is the shroud of investigative integrity...of which there is none. If the “probe” ends he no longer has that fake shroud and the truth will be exposed!

"Yep, getting harder to indict someone when there’s no crime...………."

Except for the perjury traps when people re-phrase or can't remember answers when repeatedly interrogated by Mueller, FBI, Congressional hearings, or local LE. Always use the following in the the above circumstances. It has consistently worked for Hillary and lately, Comey with some 120 I don't remember answers.

I DON'T RECALL. I DON'T REMEMBER.
I HAVE NO MEMORY OF THAT.
I DON'T KNOW ACCORDING TO MY RECOLLECTION.
I CAN'T REMEMBER.
NEVER ADD MORE TO THOSE PHRASES AS TEMPTED YOU MAY BE!!

Never ever allow LE to question you without an attorney present. If you can't get one immediately and in an interrogation room, PLEAD YOUR FIFTH AMENDMENT RIGHT!

No fake indictment coming on Trump. What is coming, and a blind man can see it with the last few indictments: we were not able to get to the bottom of this because of the lying and perjury which led to many lost hours chasing false leads. These guys plan to cover their combined asses with this along with prosecutorial immunity for all of the damage done to reputations not to mention people going to jail for process crimes. The matter will now get punted off to the house so they can keep the BS going on for another 18 months to sully Trump’s reputation and damage his effectiveness.
