text of tweet:
Sources with direct knowledge tell me that the Mueller report is expected to be sent to DOJ sometime between this afternoon and when the sun eventually forms into a red dwarf and engulfs the planet in its entirety.

(14,173 posts)A recent poll suggests that more now are believing its all a witchhunt. The longer it goes on, the more the right can paint it as Mueller and "a bunch of angry Democrats" are dragging this out because they still can find NOTHING on Trump. (And never will). Also while that is happening, the GOP with legislation, and Trump with exec orders, and true believer appointments, are stacking the deck to the point where it won't matter what Mueller finds. If half the country is convinced that the report is fake, and a set up, the GOP will hide behind those poll numbers, and agree with the base and an increasingly shrill Fox News.

(9,090 posts)fox follows and relies on the talk radio to do the groundwork repetition needed to establish the lies. if those radio stations were half way objective and calling for democracy and justice trump'd be in jail or the asylum by now. liberals watch and respond to fox - it's part of the free speech spectrum, and if id died tomorrow there'd still be talk radio dominating buzz in 40 states with 80 senators, locally and nationally coordinated, keeping the GOP from turning on trump. the reason we're fucked is the left gives talk radio a free speech free ride. if our orgs pulled their fingers out their butts and started challenging that propaganda monopoly, its advertisers would head to the hills and it would fall apart. and fox would too. and it's easy for the kremlin to feed someone like limbaugh and control messaging to 50 mil a week.

(1,660 posts)President Trump has called the Special Counsels investigation a witch hunt and said hes been subjected to more investigations than previous presidents because of politics. Do you agree?
Seriously...what the hell are they asking here? And can it really be answered with a "yes/no" answer?
Not a whole lot to see here...

Yes, I made astronomy into a verb. I did it because "People shouldn't astrophysics without" etc. just sounds too clumsy.
Anyway, the red giant phase, now that's some serious fucking global warming.

FakeNoose
(32,639 posts)... so that's a relevant clue right there. I believe there will be spinoffs to the original investigation, but they will be handed off to other people.
It really seems like Mueller is ready to retire, as anyone would be after this ordeal. The guy is almost 75, let him enjoy a few years with his grandkids. He has dedicated his entire career to the US government in one way or another.

(56,828 posts)will Mueller be able to get a new Grand Jury to investigate additional paths, or will he have to hand it off to others?

(4,007 posts)the longer the report is withheld, the madder the Orange Hatter appears to be getting. I like that he has increased the # of weird, off-topic, irrational, odd, misogynistic, stark-raving mad and just plain stupid tweets that have been forthcoming.
Descending into total madness is... sometimes a great thing.
Go Trump!

(28 posts)Who knows when the report will be issued?
No one knows. Likely not even Robert Mueller.
Mueller must start his day diligently working his "To Do" list, only to find his list is longer at the end of his day. Given the daily revelations about and traitorous ramblings from Trump, Special Counsel Mueller's job may yet be far from over.
I hope tomorrow is the day. Or maybe the day after? Sooner the better, but I really don't have much more emotional fuel to burn after so many predictions and disappointments.
We'll see it when (if) we see it. But the Donald is facing far more danger from the SDNY. The Mueller report will be the beginning of the end for Trump. SDNY will seal the deal.
