Apparently she's finally moved into the White House Saffron. I saw a lovely pic of 45 dragging her by the hand holding hands with her as they walked across the WH lawn.

Ah well. It doesn't much bother me either way, now. If she's unhappy there, it will be bad for 45, if she's happy there, it will be bad for 45. So be it.

If Trump fires Mueller, the Women's March is going to look like a fucking dress rehearsal. 😡 #TrumpRussia

If President fired Bob Mueller, Congress would immediately re-establish independent counsel and appoint Bob Mueller. Don't waste our time.

.@ChrisRuddyNMX tells me Pres Trump is "considering perhaps terminating" Robert Mueller as special counsel @NewsHour

I like Schiff's response. Smile

AcrossthePond55 · 13/06/2017 01:14

I almost hope he does fire Mueller. The political fallout from that would be enormous! Nixon's directing the AG to fire the independent counsel in the Watergate Scandal and the resulting refusals, firings, and fallout was what led eventually to Nixon's resignation.

Bring it on, baby!

TheClaws · 13/06/2017 02:48

Surely he wouldn't be stupid enough to fire Mueller? Then again ..

Claws It's just gotten to the point where we just can't put anything past him, hasn't it? He's already shown that he doesn't listen to 'cooler heads' and does whatever he feels like doing with no regard for ethics or law. It's the way he's always operated. Don't know why the people who put him where he is felt they'd be able to control him. You don't 'control' a rabid dog.

Replying to @sarahkendzior
Would firing Mueller imply an admission of guilt? Sure. So was firing Comey. So was admitting obstruction of justice on TV. They don't care.

Thanks for all the posts everyone, I'm away for a few weeks, will be following the thread(s) but posting only intermittently.

Keep up the good work! Smile

Thanks for the new thread, not so much thanks for the gift urgh

I do hope he tries to fire Mueller, that would be so amusing to watch as the fallout hits.

For those of you like me who couldnt stomach watching Trump's 'Praise me, Oh Praise me' session - here's Schumer's (brief) spoof Smile

GREAT meeting today with the best staff in the history of the world!!!

I only say the Orange One bigging himself up because I think the arse licking was done in private? I just read what the arse lickers said and it made me feel a little bilious

Lweji · 13/06/2017 07:47

Considering the current GOP I'm not so sure it's stupid to fire Mueller.

And another thing, if impeachment hearings are held under a GOP majority, I suspect (hell, I know) he'll be cleared. If so, he couldn't be put on another impeachment trial again, would he?

If they delay the whole thing and it ends up under a Democrat majority, then perhaps there can be a fair decision.

Roussette · 13/06/2017 07:59

Roll on 2018 then! With the Osoff battle coming up soon too

I love the fact that Laura Kuenssberg references West Wing in this article about Theresa May!

The Fake News Media has never been so wrong or so dirty. Purposely incorrect stories and phony sources to meet their agenda of hate. Sad!

Well, as predicted, the 9th Circuit did it again - Ruled against the TRAVEL BAN at such a dangerous time in the history of our country. S.C.

saffronwblue · 13/06/2017 12:25

Yep, keep reminding the judiciary it is a travel ban.

TheClaws · 13/06/2017 12:36

Keeps putting his foot in his mouth, doesn't he? The travel ban that isn't a travel ban?
