As the Manafort trial continues; as Giuliani continues to stick his foot into his mouth up to the knee; as Trump’s legal team continues to put off a Mueller deposition; as Mueller starts looking into Trump’s tweets for evidence of obstruction; as Don Jr. faces potential perjury charges; and as Mueller continues to indict Russian hackers, I guess Trump thought, “You know what? Fuck it. I’m gonna call for Mueller’s head.”

..This is a terrible situation and Attorney General Jeff Sessions should stop this Rigged Witch Hunt right now, before it continues to stain our country any further. Bob Mueller is totally conflicted, and his 17 Angry Democrats that are doing his dirty work are a disgrace to USA!

Yeah. He went there. Granted, there’s nothing that Sessions can do about it because he’s been recused. All the same, Trump is officially calling for the end of the Mueller probe. How long until he fires someone?

From Bloomberg:

“Jeez,” gasped Republican Senator Susan Collins of Maine as she was read the president’s tweet in an interview. “This is unbelievable.”

“Those comments are totally inappropriate,” she added. “The president should not be talking about the investigation at all.”

You think now might be a good time to pass legislation to protect Mueller? What do you think, McConnell? Paul Ryan? Graham? Now? NOW?

Also:

Looking back on history, who was treated worse, Alfonse Capone, legendary mob boss, killer and “Public Enemy Number One,” or Paul Manafort, political operative & Reagan/Dole darling, now serving solitary confinement - although convicted of nothing? Where is the Russian Collusion?

Convicted of nothing? THAT’S WHAT THE FUCKING TRIAL HE IS CURRENTLY ENDURING IS FOR, HOSS. And he’s in solitary confinement because he wouldn’t stop witness tampering! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?
