First let me say that I stand by my prediction that Mueller would never testify. He may have been present but he certainly didn’t testify! He was awful and didn’t seem to know what was in ‘his’ report and said he couldn’t testify about a lot of stuff there was no legitimate reason he couldn’t. He looked like a deer caught in the headlights. I think he looked like he’s in early stages of dementia.

Now one thing I liked about the hearings today is the time limitations put on members. This is something they should always do. It forced members to ask specific questions instead of making speeches for sound bites. Of course it resulted in Dems just reading statements from the report and asking if Mueller agreed with ‘his’ report.

There were several times in the morning when Mueller clearly lied about not indicting Trump because of the OLC opinions that you can’t indict a sitting president. It was so blatantly false that he led off the afternoon by correcting his testimony and indicating that the OLC opinions did not affect his decision not to indict Trump for obstruction.

My favorite point today was when Congressman Ratcliffe, a Republican, pulled out the Federal criminal code and the Constitution and asked Mueller to point out where he or the AG have the power to exonerate anyone. Mueller sputtered because he didn’t have that authority and his putting in the report that he couldn’t exonerate Trump was obviously a partisan tactic to try to keep open the possibility of impeachment.

A couple of lines of questioning that were interesting. First, one Dem tried to suggest that you should not vote for Trump because if he got re-elected the Statute of Limitations would run out on his nonexistent crimes.

Another was Congesswoman Sewell from Alabama and pencil neck Schiff trumpeting the nonsense that if the Trump campaign received or was willing to receive dirt on the Hillary campaign from Russia it would be a violation of campaign finance laws. As I have previously stated, information has never been determined to be a thing of value under those statutes. It would be an unconstitutional infringement on freedom of speech. It is particularly humorous given that Hillary did just that. And watch Hannity tonight because I am certain that he will play the tape of pencil neck trying to get dirt on Trump from what he thought were Russians.

I also want to comment on Mueller’s bogus nonsense that he didn’t know of any biases in his staff. You could maybe believe he didn’t know in the beginning that his staff had blatant conflicts of interest. However, all he had to do was read the news and he would have known that they had major biases and conflicts and he did nothing to correct it. It is also important to know that he had Weissmann select his biased staff. The same Weissmann that was at Hillary’s ‘victory’ party.

The last thing I want to comment on is the fact that this is not Mueller’s report. He was picked as a figurehead to lend his supposed stellar, impeccable reputation to give the investigation credibility. (Ask the innocent people he knowingly put in prison to protect his snitch Whitey Bulger who actually committed the crimes and he knew it.) The reason he didn’t know anything about the report is because he had little to do with it. This was from the beginning Andrew Weissmann’s report with his previously disproved obstruction theory (9-0 in the Supreme Court). Mueller was just a figurehead!

And I’m watching the Five and Juan Williams is either playing his role or dumb as a stump.
