(THREAD) Here's the plan if Donald Trump fires Robert Mueller:
1/ First, we mount a massive public response to show the President and, crucially, Congress that the American people will not sit idly by while the rule of law is under attack. Join us at trumpisnotabovethelaw.org

2/ We must demand that the special counsel's investigation and its work product are preserved, as @NormEisen and @FredWertheimer have argued. cnn.com/2017/08/10/opi…
3/ We must demand the House immediately begin bipartisan hearings in the Judiciary Committee on abuse of power and obstruction of justice. These hearings could lead to impeachment proceedings- and many will argue at this time that they likely should.
4/ Finally, we must then demand the creation of a Senate Select Committee to investigate all matters involved in the Russia scandals and Trump's obstruction of the investigation. Only such a broad and independent committee would be able to handle matters of obstruction.
5/ All of this will require massive, sustained public outcry and pressure. The initial demonstrations must only be the beginning of a series of protests, sit-ins and other peaceful displays of public outrage.
