How could Trump try to shut down Mueller if he was independent of the AG?

WASHINGTON (AP) — Public at last, special counsel Robert Mueller’s report revealed to a waiting nation Thursday that President Donald Trump tried to seize control of the Russia probe and force Mueller’s removal to stop him from investigating potential obstruction of justice by the president. Trump was largely thwarted by those around him who refused to go along.

Mueller laid out multiple episodes in which Trump directed others to influence or curtail the Russia investigation after the special counsel’s appointment in May 2017. Those efforts “were mostly unsuccessful, but that is largely because the persons who surrounded the President declined to carry out orders or accede to his requests,” Mueller wrote.

Any apologies to finnbow forthcoming?
I don't need one since I am always right, but leaning left.

Republicans’ 'untethered' Hunter Biden claims demolished by WaPo fact-checker

Our village idiot, of course, believes every one of Comer’s “facts”.

Republicans’ 'untethered' just about covers it.

Hunter Biden...presidential offspring misbehaving...the horror...the horror.

Neil Bush...
As Neil Bush went from one venture to another, tarnished by his role in the 1990 Silverado S&L scandal, his wife, Sharon, couldn’t understand why she had to worry about the grocery bills. Wasn’t he the son of America’s 41st president and brother of two governors? Then Neil divorced her last April to marry Maria Andrews, and Sharon struck back, alleging he had fathered Andrews’s two-year-old son. From the sexual, financial, and family revelations of the resulting legal battles, Vicky Ward discovers how a 23-year marriage withered in the shadow of America’s most powerful political dynasty. Neil Bush, grifter banker, philanderer, and customer of the best brothels in Thailand and Hong Kong. And because Sharon outed her son, Barbara Bush, the most vindictive nazi cow in the history of American first ladies, made sure that Sharon was excluded from any friendships or social activities with any of her former pals from the Bush family or circle of friends. Including her kids birthday celebrations and other milestones in their lives.

One other vile behavior exposed by the paparazzi...Malia Obama, underage and smoking a cigarette. It's an outrage...impeach Obama.

One GOP lawmaker, granted anonymity to speak more freely, offered an even blunter assessment: “There’s no evidence that Joe Biden got money, or that Joe Biden, you know, agreed to do something so that Hunter could get money. There’s just no evidence of that. And they can’t impeach without that evidence. And I don’t I don’t think the evidence exists.”

So far the lack of evidence (contrary to the "feelings" of someone around here) hasn't stopped them from throwing up all sorts of bullshit yet. If the Dems are savy enough they can use this to bury the Retrumplicans.

Living in Idaho and dealing with Trumpist lunacy would be funny were it not sad: they run everything north of Boise.
