A clear sign the Buffoon is worried. Hope Mueller doesn't hold back. Our future may depend on what happens today.

Well, now the Repukes have a line of questioning for Mueller to deflect from Trump's crimes.

If he "applied" for the job and was "interviewed" and "turned down", there is a god damn record of it, because that's how it works. If he says he didn't, than he didn't.

this is what desperation and fear look like.

It would be nice if Mueller delivered what this guy is afraid of.

Mueller and his deputy have a choice today, party or country.

I sure hope they make the right choice.

I highly doubt he wanted to go back and do the job again in the Trump administration.

Soon Trump will insist that Mueller "begged" for the job, and "kissed his ass."
