The Mueller report will be released. The Mueller report will not be released.

Maybe the Mueller report will be released.

We will see the report. We may not see the report. Maybe we will see the report.

Mueller may indict Trump. Mueller may not indict Trump. Maybe Mueller will indict Trump.

Mueller may charge Trump with high crimes. Mueller may not charge Trump with high crimes.

Mueller will not indict more people. Mueller will indict more people.

That was the news media yesterday. A bunch of people guessing and driving the American people nuts.

They are saying this is almost over.

What is the outcome of the Flynn case, the gates case, what about the manafort case.

Why didnt Mueller subpoena the president to testify? This happened to Bill Clinton on a civil case.

Where are these other indictments?

What about all the sealed indictments or sealed filings in the court system we heard about?

Is this only down to a case of Obstruction and thats it?

What happened to the money laundering or the back and forth between Stone, Guccifer, Wikileaks and a high up trump senior campaign member?

what about the scenario of McCabe, Rosenstein being witnesses to obstruction? Where is the case?

How does this all wrap up about the same time as Barr takes over, Rosenstein leaves, Senator Burr says no direct evidence of collusion and the president leaves the country during this time. It all seems coordinated?

Something is not right here and I am getting Nervious that Mueller might be playing into the Party.

if he was ready to release the report?

Why would he do that with Stone and other indictments in process?

It seems that the media in this country has evolve into rumors and speculation, insteadd of facts

The order could be stop the investigation, write your report and dont tell anybody that we said to stop the investigation.

It could be they said only investigate Russian Collusion where it can be proved without a doubt and obstruction and thats it.

Also dont go after any trump family members or look at his finances.

We just dont know.

The infotainment masquerading as news to fill air time between pharmaceutical ads. I suggest turning them off.

...yes, the angst is being built around that - the need to fill airtime (and my needle ).

I always admired Khephra because he had this elaborate media center that monitored all networks, all internet news feeds. And he was always the first to break news in LBN.

Imagine the investigation concluding and this is it? I think worst case Mueller gets called in front of a House committee and says they found no direct collusion between Trump and Russia.

I never really saw how they could be pursuing an obstruction case over the Comey firing with Rosenstein overseeing the probe since he's the one that wrote the memo recommending Comey be fired. How is that not a conflict he should have recused himself from?

Or filters it down so much it means nothing, he'll be gone after forever for doing this , and he'll be the third AG of trumps facing serious legal actions against him too. Sessions and Whitaker could easily end up in prison , like 2 of Nixon's AG's ended up, and a third would break the record for republicans.
