"While aboard Air Force One [Wednesday], Trump killed some time by picking up the phone and ringing associates to ask them if they thought Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report would be sent to the Department of Justice this week…”

thedailybeast.com/trump-kept-ask…
Throughout the week, Trump was quizzing various associates—administration officials, friends, his legal team—on if they believed the buzz that the Mueller report would, FINALLY, be delivered as soon as this week.

He—& everyone else—got their answer today

thedailybeast.com/trump-kept-ask…
"But if the Mueller report is actually, finally sent over to the Justice Department by close of business on Friday, the president will be many miles away from it...” thedailybeast.com/trump-kept-ask…
Goes without saying, but this is still just the beginning:

"the president made clear to his outside legal team, which includes Giuliani and Jay Sekulow, that he wanted his attorneys sitting tight, even after the Mueller investigation is history…” thedailybeast.com/trump-kept-ask…

Just so you know how the sausage gets made here, we ended up not running a story on this a year ago b/c @thedailybeast could not justify, post- his WH stint, doing a piece on the Mooch’s allegedly big dick.

I waited patiently for a news peg to drop the below, uh, reporting...
@thedailybeast FLASH FORWARD A YEAR, and the @Cliff_Sims book is coming out, and WHAT DO YOU KNOW...
@thedailybeast @Cliff_Sims Some of y’all may think journalists are heroes. Others may suspect that there are certain days when I’m off my ass drunk by 3:15 p.m., grappling with the sheer nature and implications of my daily professional life, wondering why I didn’t attain any real life skills in school.

Omg, this audio is even better than any excerpt released from the Woodward book today. It’s just Trump, going on for seemingly decades, whining to Bob that he SOMEHOW did not hear about Bob’s interview requests… washingtonpost.com/politics/2018/…
This almost goes w/out saying, but… This all feels like Trump just trying to get it on the record that he wasn’t told about the book, to use as future ammo against the book.

is obvious Woodward did his due diligence to try to talk to Trump b/c why the fuck would any reporter…
…in this position **not** want to talk to the president? He went thru the usual comms channels / other channels. Trump repeatedly complains Bob didn’t call his “office” directly. Uh… that would own if all reporters were given his & Madeleine’s direct line & explicitly told…

My first co-byline with @willsommer and of COURSE it’s about a QAnon conspiracy theorist who somehow ended up in this smiling Oval Office photo op with President Trump this week… thedailybeast.com/trump-in-oval-…
@willsommer We haven’t been able to get to the bottom of this yet, but of the 4 senior WH aides we asked about how Trump ended up in a photo op w/ this prominent QAnon guy in the Oval, they all pleaded ignorance. 2 of them audibly could not contain their laughter. thedailybeast.com/trump-in-oval-…
@willsommer It is highly unlikely the QAnon man was simply able to stumble into this Trump meet. Those familiar w/ how this Oval Office works say typically the only way that something like this happens is if a senior official vouched for the guests & waved them in :/ thedailybeast.com/trump-in-oval-…

Special Counsel Robert Mueller's report on the Russia investigation MUST be made public.

Elected officials work for the people. We have a right to know if President Trump and his associates coordinated with Russia to interfere in our elections.
If the Department of Justice doesn't make the Mueller report public, Congress should use its subpoena powers to ensure the truth sees the light of day.
Here is our full statement calling for the release of Special Counsel Robert Mueller's report on the Russian investigation:

Putin's Clown Prince
@putinsclown
😱A NIGHTMARE SCENARIO: The Mueller Investigation is a cover up scam, to sacrifice a few scapegoats to pacify the plebes, defuse a social explosion, to whitewash Trump and the GOP... using as a pretext for secrecy the DOJ rules, executive privilege, and top secret classification.
I KNOW PERFECTLY WELL THIS IS A CONSPIRACY THEORY, and I do not believe it... YET. But that is exactly what people will deduce if justice is denied, Trump & associates get immunity and impunity, or we get anything less than 100% fully & detailed transparency we can believe.
Without full disclosure, the longer it takes, the more obstacles in its way, the less credible it becomes. Anyone who can predict what a cover up of this magnitude will do to America, let me know! Trump is clearly guilty & absent being proven innocent beyond a shadow of a doubt.

💥💥💥#Mueller: #Russians leaked files to "discredit"? #Concord & #Kavanaugh connection, A thread. 👇
theguardian.com/us-news/2019/j…
1. Note the date: the confidential files with evidence were leaked in October 2018.
2. The Twitter account has been removed. It's old news. There is nothing discrediting to Mueller's investigation in the fact that the Russians stole the files. If anything, it confirms that, yes, Russians hack.
