I don’t think even he can get away with another SNM at this point

Even if he cans them, no way can they stop the investigation

Try to curtail it, yes

But if he does, say goodbye to the House

Say hello to REAL investigation into EVERYTHING, including release of his tax returns

That means certain tax fraud/money laundering charges

Hmmmmm, maybe he SHOULD fire em

Might speed up the process

Elliot...start a thread on this. Nobody reads mine
