not used to controlling his desires. He also doesn't like to be told no, don't do something.

Americans know there SHOULD BE no one above the law, but we know there are Wall Street bankers who are as untouchable as Dick Cheney and W! TPTB have made it so that their people do not get investigated, indicted or convicted. They are able to keep that from happening. It is only when a powerful person rips off or screws over other powerful people that they go down. Trump has done that in spades!

I heard there is a clause in the appointment that covered this option...it may of been blogged by Seth Abramson

would keep the same people for continuity. They are all proven top in their area of expertise.

The only way they would not is if the person to take over was there to kill or whitewash the investigation.

They're afraid trump will have one of his typical crazy Saturday nights & lash out.

Tighten that noose.

Mueller's links to Obama

And I hope trump ends up washing himself out of office as a result. Thank you, Rep. Lieu.

If he knew this DEFINITELY, then it would be a different matter.
In this case "I think" is much like saying "I hope." We all hope this is what would happen.

Seeing is believing. The Republicans always put party before country.

do i agree 100% I think this congress would not do a thing!!!!!!!!!!

I don't believe the GOPee will begin impeachment at all. Not even if he shot someone on 5th Avenue.

Paul Ryan lacks a moral center to do what is right for america if and when trump fires Mueller and/or Rosenstein.

I think most lawmakers would get on board if Trump crossed this line; I like to have some tiny bit of faith in the basic goodness of people. But there is no guaranty.

Trump might be deterred if he believed this would happen. My hope is that this is being communicated to him privately.

Impeachment is a fantasy.

if public opinion forces them to but--- I think just most of them will continue to defend that psychopath's actions at least until they get some of their joint agenda into law.

Seems to be some confusion, in places...of just who
dictates the law. Dementia boy could keep our courts
tangle up in various, outrageous charges that the
russian theft of our election and who outed who
and "what investigation" dissolve off americuns
radar. like 9 - 11

Nancy Pelosi has been on every talk show saying we shouldn't be talking about impeachment. She wouldn't impeach W for war crimes, so what's a little 'fake news.'

that's the problem with continuing to ignore the right's most important weapon. that's what keeps the base together and the reps in line.

ignoring rw radio continues to be the biggest political mistake in history

No disrespect intended to Congressman Lieu. We all know that Democrats will do the right thing if this situation transpires. But I have no confidence that all but an insignificant handful of Republicans will follow suit. They value party over country; authoritarianism over democracy.

Now is the time to speak up but none of them are brave enough to do that. I do not have the same level of confidence in this congress that Congressman Lieu has.

We can "believe" any number of things, but that doesn't make any of those things TRUE. Unfortunately.

I have little doubt that Trump is going to fire Mueller and then when Rosenstein refuses to fire him, Rosenstein.

What I'm much less certain of is whether Congress will come together to file impeachment proceedings.

I also think that a President Pence could be our worst nightmare. He Is is a full bore crazy Christian Domnionist.

Assuming that Pence isn't pulled down by the same maelstrom of scandals…we could see a huge number bills hitting his desk very quickly. The Republicans know that they have a limited time to wreak destruction on the federal government.

If the paralysis we have going on due to Trump goes away I would be very very afraid.

has updated their newest dictionary, when you find the word "guilty" , they now simply have this

?itok=SnlMed62

off the record.

Until then, the earliest proceedings will begin is January 2019.

Firing Mueller is clearly obstruction. I don't know if the GOP House has the courage and integrity to do it, but it would be the appropriate response for sure.

just gave the most disheartening interview I've seen. It was posited to him what would happen if Trump had Mueller fired and stated there would be a "constitutional crisis" and that the response would be to create an "independent commission" to investigate which is according to him what should have happened in the first place. He said this would take the issue out of politics. Are you kidding me? Shutting down an investigation being handled by professional prosecutors and handing to over to a bunch of retired Dem and GOP politicians is taking it out of politics? Someone in his district needs to set this guy straight.

I have no faith in republicans, they never do the right thing. After all trumps their man.

If there are less than two years left in Trump's term, Pence can serve that time, and then run for a "first" term as prez, giving him a possible almost ten years in the White House.

If there's more than two years left in Trump's term when Pence takes over, those two-plus years would count as a first term, so Pence could only run for re-election one time, for a total of six years (and some days) in the White House.

The Repubs will be patient.

It's wishful thinking to believe the Republicans will do the right thing.
