Deranged Rhino Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 ... And the majority today have been peppering RR and Wray with questions about Stone communicating with Strzok and the FBI/DOJ before July 31st 2016. Coincidence? Nah. Something's about to break big.

But going with your explanation, couldn't Trump order Strozkozloszk to answer Congress' questions?

But 3 FBI lawyers to help a guy refuse to answer congress? Nope. Close the meeting to reporters? I can see it. Refuse to answer to congress' oversight? How does that make sense? As I understand it, some of the questions cannot be answered if the replies might compromise an ongoing criminal investigation (and let's face it, Strzok would not be unhappy about not answering them). Maybe they are there to tackle him if he attempts to answer those types of questions? (not that he would, not in his best interest) It is the same with many of the documents Congress keeps requesting. If they are part of an ongoing criminal investigation they cannot be turned over. It does make for great political theater for Congress to keep requesting what they cannot receive. I'm not sure whether RR is a good guy or a bad guy or just a guy just trying to survive a mess, but some of the documents he cannot turn over (although I am sure there is other stuff he can turn over he is slow-walking).

Deranged Rhino Posted June 29, 2018 Posted June 29, 2018 Update on Flynn. Judge Sullivan just ordered Mueller to hurry the !@#$ up: No later than July 2nd. ... Just in time for the 4th of July. July is going to be a BIG month in this thread. 3
B-Man Posted June 30, 2018 Posted June 30, 2018 MANAFORT’S JUDGE BLASTS SPECIAL COUNSEL PRACTICES On Tuesday, Judge T.S. Ellis of the Eastern District of Virginia denied Paul Manafort’s motion to dismiss the criminal charges that have been brought against him by special counsel Robert Mueller. Simply put, Manafort’s argument was that the charges against him–essentially, tax evasion with regard to millions of dollars he received from the Ukraine government–long preceded, and had nothing to do with, the supposed subject of Mueller’s investigation, alleged collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russian government. 1
