Devin Nunes threatens to "impeach" the head of the FBI and Rod Rosenstein, while Donald Trump just wants to fire everybody.

Courtesy of The Hill: 

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) said Tuesday that he will seek to "impeach" FBI Director Christopher Wray and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein if they decline to hand over the document used to launch the FBI's probe into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia's meddling in the 2016 presidential election. 

"I can tell you that we're not going to just hold in contempt, we will have a plan to hold in contempt and impeach," Nunes said on Fox News's "The Ingraham Angle." 

Asked host Laura Ingraham if he was serious about impeaching Wray, Nunes replied: "Absolutely."

Of course as we know Nunes is essentially Trump's lap dog, and he is desperate to earn his Scoobie snack from his master.

However Trump may not even bother to go through that process as he is still talking about firing Rosenstein on his own: 

President Donald Trump is considering firing Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, multiple people familiar with the discussions tell CNN, a move that has gained urgency following the raid of the office of the President's personal lawyer. 

Such an action could potentially further Trump's goal of trying to put greater limits on special counsel Robert Mueller. 

This is one of several options -- including going so far as to fire Attorney General Jeff Sessions -- Trump is weighing in the aftermath of the FBI's decision Monday to raid the office of Michael Cohen, the President's personal lawyer and longtime confidant. Officials say if Trump acts, Rosenstein is his most likely target, but it's unclear whether even such a dramatic firing like this would be enough to satisfy the President.

In other news Mitch McConnell refused to allow a vote to protect Robert Mueller and his investigation:

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said he doesn't think the Senate needs to pass legislation protecting special counsel Robert Mueller, arguing President Trump won't fire him. 

"I haven't seen a clear indication yet that we needed to pass something to keep him from being removed because I don't think that's going to happen, and that remains my view," McConnell told reporters. The GOP leader, asked what the Senate would do if Trump fired the special counsel, declined to speculate. 

"It's still my view that Mueller should be allowed to finish his job. I think that's the view of most people in Congress," he said. 

There is NO way that McConnell actually believes that Trump is not capable of trying to fire Mueller, or of firing Rosenstein and forcing his successor to fire Mueller.

Especially since he actually had to be talked down from doing so by his lawyers back in December.

Jesus what a shit show!

    Secret Payment to Buy Silence
    How the media organization protected the Presidential candidate early in his campaign.

    Late in 2015, a former Trump Tower doorman named Dino Sajudin met with a reporter from American Media, Inc., the publisher of the National Enquirer, at a McDonald’s in Pennsylvania. A few weeks earlier, Sajudin had signed a contract with A.M.I., agreeing to become a source and to accept thirty thousand dollars for exclusive rights to information he had been told: that Donald Trump, who had launched his Presidential campaign five months earlier, may have fathered a child with a former employee in the late nineteen-eighties. Sajudin declined to comment for this story. However, six current and former A.M.I. employees, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they feared legal retaliation by the company, said that Sajudin had told A.M.I. the names of the alleged mistress and child. Reporters at A.M.I. had spent weeks investigating the allegations, and Sajudin had passed a lie-detector test, during which he testified that high-level Trump employees, including Trump’s head of security, Matthew Calamari, had told him the story.

      It's going to require Republicans (in HIS party) to go after him and do you think they will, 7:30 AM? I hope they do, but doubt they will.

      Republicans are covering for theirs - as well as Trump and his administration - and I hope the majority of them lose their seats IF they have the balls or vajajas to run again.

    "Investigators are following the money, and what they are finding are a consistent pattern of potential bank and wire fraud. There is a web of payment that went to silence rumors about Trump’s sex life and affairs before the election. Trump has denied any knowledge of these payments, but in at least one case, Stormy Daniels, Trump signed the agreement.

    Investigators want to know if Trump and Cohen committed fraud. The investigation has spun off from Russia collusion, and into how Trump and his world of characters CONduct busines$$."

      I wonder if his illegitimate kids are, or have been, cared for financially by Trump?
      If they know they are his and can prove it, I hope they come forward and tell their stories. America would be very interested!

    "Fuck ~IT~, I'll just say it. Someone should be digging harder into NDAs that certain women have allegedly signed benefiting Trump."
    "Wilson also hinted that certain NDAs would show that Trump had in the past paid for abortions.

    “Have you ever paid for an abortion or caused someone to do so?” he wrote, again assuming a reporter’s voice. “How many? Who administers these requests if not you?”"To whom did you say 'The last call they get to me is 'Donald, I'm late.'" ABORTION$^

    '“I spent four and a half years by Robert Mueller,” Mudd began. “This is a storied prosecutor, one of the most legendary FBI directors, who spent 12 years as an FBI director for both President Bush and Obama. He’s a decorated military veteran being compared to a crime boss when he’s investigating a man who bragged about his genitalia during the campaign and lied about the Obama birth certificate during the campaign.”

    “Whose press secretary lied within 24 hours of getting into the White House, who lied about Trump Towers being wired,” he continued, building up stream.”Who has got 17, 18 women — I lost a number of fingers to counting how many women who said he did something inappropriate. Whose advisers have quit because they lied to federal investigators about everything from financial fraud to their involvement with the Russian ambassador.”

    “And you got that dirt bag telling me that one of the most storied FBI directors ever is a crime boss?” the CNN regular asked incredulously. “You put him side by side and you tell me what we got here. Facts are facts. Robert Mueller’s an American legend’s legends. The president is a DIRT BAG —
    I don’t know what to tell you, I’m so pissed off.”'

      And between *this* headline above and what slime bucket Shamity spouted about the 'Mueller crime family' (WTF?!?) the projection is *off the ever fekkin' scales*. They all need to be committed to their own respective rubber rooms.

    When Trump is impeached canwe invite his accusers?
    In light of Trump's sex scandals his choice to humiliate Hillary Clinton by having Bill Clinton's infidelity paraded makes Trump more despicable to me.

    old Mitch is a smug old turtle. He smiled evilly last fall as Trump went on one of his rampages. Mitch would not even say a word when reporters asked him questions about Donald, the Republian's new, old bad boy.
    They love the Donald wreaking havoc and deflecting from actual governing because McConnell and Ryan have been trying to make all the things from their wet dreams come true while people pay daily attention to their front boy.
    I imagine Mitch old boy goes to sleep each night and has a Scarlet O'Hara giggle of delight at all of this..
    And Mitch won't lift a finger when Donnie tries to use power to undo the Mueller investigation. He will stand by with that chinless grin like the old corrupt bastard he is.

  13. This is the evil of Mitch McConnell.

    If Trump isn't going to fire him, then pass the legislation and it is moot. No harm, no foul.

    If Trump fires Mueller, it's TOO LATE TO DO ANYTHING isn't it?

    I think that aneurysm should hit McConnell first, before it goes for Trump. The best thing that could happen to this country is for The Bitch to leave this earth.

    With luck, he'll be out after the November vote. That's a start.
