Americans Will March In The Streets In 48 U.S. States If Trump Fires Robert Mueller

Source: Newsweek Magazine




BY GRAHAM LANKTREE ON 10/30/17 AT 7:17 AM

Americans are planning to protest across the United States Monday if President Donald Trump moves to fire Russia investigation special counsel Robert Mueller in the wake of his probe’s first arrest.

“Nobody is Above the Law” rallies have been organized in multiple cities in 48 states by the group MoveOn.org, a progressive political action group, set to begin if and when Mueller is fired.

The group argues it “would be a constitutional crisis for our country” if Mueller is dismissed, in an announcement about the rallies on its website.

As early as Monday Mueller’s team are set to make their first arrest in the investigation into whether Trump campaign officials or associates worked with Russia to interfere in the 2016 election, according to CNN and The Wall Street Journal.

Delaware
New Mexico
North Dakota

Interesting, I’d’ve thought West Virginia and Alabama would’ve been the 2 states where people would march to *support* firing Mueller.

I think Mueller is buoyed by the notion that the Repubikans in congress would impeach Trump

“If any move is made against President Trump or his family members by Mueller, it’ll mean civil war.”

That’s looking more and more likely

Mr. Art was expecting Mueller to arrest the Podesta brothers, as were other trumpanzees:
I hope Mueller and Rosenstein don't disappoint. If they respond as if it's an “obvious order from Hillary, Obama and Comey”, there will be 10 million pitchforks at The Mall.

The "other box" they like to refer to is the ammunition box:
Globalist elites want to run your lives, folks. This is why they're trying so hard to get rid of Trump.

Our votes simply don't matter anymore. Therefore, it's time to resort to the other box....

or some kind of conflict of interest, they'll plant stories to discredit Mueller and make the case to end their investigation task force.

For the last several months they have kept telling us that if Mueller's team hasn't found anything yet, then there's nothing to find and it should be shut down with their funding cut off.

Manafort was very obvious. But if they charge Don Jr. or Jared or someone like that, then we'll see some impressive house of cards type of stuff happen as they try to take down Mueller.
