"Mueller is not bound by assertions of presidential privilege, but he is known as a rule-follower who is unlikely to defy the administration’s direction."
NEW: DOJ tells Mueller to limit testimony to his report, arguing that anything beyond that is covered by 'presidential privilege' that hasn’t been waived [it has]. As a private citizen, Mueller is not bound by assertions of presidential privilege.
#Maddow politi.co/2JLCpkT
"Though Trump & his aides are projecting a hands-off approach, they’ve signaled that they expect Mueller to closely guard the voluminous evidence he gathered re the inner workings of the Trump White House."

Mueller doesn't work for Trump or Barr.

Anthony Comello, who became obsessed with far-right QAnon conspiracy theories and “believed he was a chosen vigilante of President Trump...that he was under the protection of Trump himself and had his full support,” had also targeted Maxine Waters and Adam Schiff.
Recall, QAnon conspiracy theorist Anthony Comello [who murdered Gambino crime family boss, Francesco Cali] showed up for his March court appearance with a big “Q” drawn on the palm of his hand as well as the words “MAGA forever.”

I could care less that Hope Hicks hasn't been criticized by her peers. I DO care that Hope Hicks hasn't been indicted by federal prosecutors like any other criminal.

Damning' facts, proof of 'high crimes' to be highlighted by Mueller

DOJ tells RSM to limit testimony to his report

DOJ is “taking the position that anything outside the written pages of the report are things abt which presidential privilege hasn’t been waived”.

Epstein with Trump's closest advisers: Wilbur Ross, Giuliani, & Mnunchin

📌DOJ officials have emphasized that they consider ANY EVIDENCE he gathered throughout the course of his investigation to be “presumptively privileged” and SHIELDED FROM PUBLIC DISCLOSURE
💣HighCrimes3💣

📌HIC spokesperson said the DOJ did produce a subset of underlying docs related to the SC’s inv’n to their members for review, “although it has FAILED in recent weeks, despite repeated requests, to produce KEY MATERIALS central to the HIC’s oversight work.”

<<THREAD MUELLER>> I keep running the known facts through my mind and weighing them up against this notion that no new indictments means vindication for Donald Trump. This is a flawed conclusion. @traciemac_Bmore @NarativLive #Mueller narativ.org/2019/03/22/mue…
Mueller could only conclude "no further indictments" through three legal paths:
1) No evidence of a crime
2) Insufficient evidence to indict or
3) DOJ guidelines don't allow indicting a sitting POTUS. @traciemac_Bmore @NarativLive #Mueller
Let's eliminate the unlikely:
1) is unlikely because so many people have already been indicted.
2) is possible but unlikely as this investigation has mounds of evidence
3) the likeliest scenario: Donald J. Trump committed a crime but Mueller couldn't indicted under DOJ policy.

The only noteworthy thing in this article in The Hill is the following quote by former federal prosecutor Seth Waxman: 1/4 tinyurl.com/y8n77ejd
If Manafort hasn’t already given #Mueller sufficient evidentiary testimony to implicate the campaign in collusion with Russia (Manafort has met with the Mueller time 9 times in long sessions), Mueller will *never* have it. 2/4
