LIEU: "The reason, again, that you did not indict Donald Trump is because of OLC opinion that you cannot indict a sitting president, correct?"

MUELLER: "That is correct."
Lesko notes that this assertion contradicts other statements from Mueller. He doesn't really clarify the difference.

I sincerely can't imagine what other paths I could have taken in life to find that trailer appealing to even the tiniest degree.
Let's start with the fact that cats are bad.
Someone actually unfollowed me for this which I grudgingly respect.

"There are no more good TV shows on like ‘Gunsmoke,’ ‘Bonanza,’ ‘The Virginian,’ ‘Andy Griffith,’ ‘I Love Lucy.’ We don’t have those shows anymore. We’re too interested in homosexual activities." yellowhammernews.com/john-merrill-o…
This is so absolutely hilarious.

This Hope Hicks transcript is amazing. She comes across great. The Dems come across as absolute morons who are doing this as a political stunt.

White House has claimed executive privilege. No questions from when she was working in WH

Nadler has no idea what this means it seems
Rep. Collins calls out Ted Lieu for live-tweeting her testimony.

Nadler explained at the beginning that it was a confidential, closed door setting.
Norm Eisen, one of the writers of the Brooking's Obstruction Roadmap, tried to pull a fast one and get a good sound bite over not turning over documents. WH counsel says nope.

See @Joestradamus91's The Roadmap posts for more details on Brookings' plan.

THREAD #MuellerReport "The President learned of the Special Counsel's appointment from Sessions, who was with the President, Hunt, and McGahn conducting interviews for a new FBI Director." @NY1
"According to notes written by Hunt , when Sessions told the President that a Special Counsel had been appointed, the President slumped back in his chair and said, "Oh my God. This is terrible. This is the end of my Presidency. I'm fucked."
"The President became angry and
lambasted the Attorney General for his decision to recuse from the investigation , stating, "How
