Senators to reintroduce Mueller protection bill this week

By Jordain Carney - 01/07/19 06:34 PM EST
   

A bipartisan group of senators is preparing to revive legislation to protect special counsel Robert Mueller from being fired.

Sens. Christopher Coons (D-Del.), Thom Tillis (R-N.C.), Cory Booker (D-N.J.) and Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) will reintroduce the legislation this week, spokespeople for Coons confirmed.
 
The legislation protects Mueller, or any other special counsel, in the event he is fired by providing for an "expedited review" of the firing. If a court determines that it wasn't for "good cause," the special counsel would be reinstated.

It would also codify Justice Department regulations that say only a senior department official could fire Mueller or another special counsel.

Who cares. Mueller has gone absolutely nowhere. He has arrested no one involved in collusion of any kind. This is all worthless bullshit.

   That may be @The Ghost and it is from your dreaded The Hill but your butt buddy Lindsay is still in on it and I think that is noteworthy.

My "butt buddy" was said to be named by the dreaded Hill.  Doesn't mean it really happened.

    I apologize @The Ghost (only because it discomforts you so when I do) It was a rather broad brush I painted you with.  I just assumed Trumpers still loved Lindsey, things change so quickly around here.

Normally, I would be all over you like ugly on a Baldwin brother, but you happened to pull this shit while I'm in a transitional period so I don't wanna go off on you.  I wanna help you, but I've already been through too much shit today to deal with your dumb ass.

All these bums have nothing better to do than protect a man that has delivered nothing?  Uggh.  All four of these senators should be drummed out of the senate with the next election.
