Here's NY State jumping in - look for non-pardonable fraud charges for lotsa trumps.
You m@gas going to chip in for the Trump defense fund? Oh wait, that's where your campaign contributions are all going.

Yeah, but Trump should get a Nobel Prize for completely denuclearizing North Korea. All you libby haters just can't recognize genius when you see it.

That's a good question. The answer has nothing to do with anything nefarious. It has nothing to do with desperation of Democrats or anything else like that. Rather, it's all about good government and separation of responsibility.
Mueller and congress have different jobs.
Mueller is charged with investigating crimes and following through with indictments and trials if deemed appropriate.
Congress is charged with oversight of the executive branch. It is the job of congress to investigate corruption in the federal government, regardless of whether or not it rises to a criminal level. And of course, what they find might lead to impeachment or censure.
So even though the two investigative bodies might cross paths, the focus is different as they have different responsibilities.
Plus Congress has no control of what they can see of Mueller's investigation.
Mueller ultimately reports to Trump, not Congress.
It's not about whether they trust Mueller but whether they trust Trump to not block Mueller's findings.
Why would Trump want to block Mueller's findings? So far, there has not been one iota of evidence of criminal misdoings by Trump. The Mueller report may fully exonerate Trump and co. You Liberals have been salivating for two years about bringing Trump down that you can't even think straight. Mueller has had two years with his crackpot team of liberal investigators looking into everything Trump yet nothing has come out of it so far. The Gang that couldn't shoot straight (otherwise known as the House Democrats) are frothing at the mouth but I seriously doubt they will find anything either. Just face it, Trump won fair and square and will be riding high with record approval ratings come November of next year.

That's really cool that the Mueller report will be made fully public.

trump is an unindicted conspirator in a federal felony case, man. Try to keep up.
Although technically that's SDNY, not Mueller, I believe.
But fair enough - IF Mueller's report says the president did nothing illegal then sure Spanks would want it released. That's a big if. Many have come out of meetings with Mueller's people and said 'holy carp these guys know everything.'
But
I think it's nearly 100% obvious that Mueller will say trump obstructed justice. I mean spanks admitted this on national tv. Bragged about it. Wasn't smart enough to know it was a crime. Then he kept obstructing justice and meddling with witnesses. And probably dangled pardons.
So obstruction is not nothing since Nixon and Clinton were charged with it.
Anyway, it's Barr who decides what to do with the report/s, not Trump.

Just to be crystal clear - if he wasn’t POTUS right now, Trump would be going straight to jail with Cohen for breaching campaign finance laws. So he is already a de facto felon.
it sort of does look like there is an emergency on the southern border. Border control is overwhelmed.
the thing is that a wall wouldn't make much difference.

Well, where are all the Liberals in Congress and here on this site that said it was a "manufactured crisis????" At that rate you would have 900,000 illegal felons crossing in one year. A wall would not make much difference? Israel put a wall on its southern border and illegal crossings was cut by 98%. A wall is definitely needed and the people who have been poo-pooing a wall need to come clean and say they were wrong.
Trump hasn't finished the wall yet? WTF?

you have this weird view that a wall would stop illegal immigration. Ok, hey go with it. It seems to make you happy.
but you know that there is also a crisis where there is a wall, which blows up your entire argument.
Washington Post is reporting that the illegals crossing in March may hit 100,000. Well, well, well. Seems like a genuine crisis to me.

Yep walls are a GREAT investment. NO ONE has EVER, EVER, EVER made it through a wall in the history of walls EVER...

Ok if you think there is a national emergency then we should federalize the national guard until more border agents are hired. Let’s say the total cost of the wall is $25 billion. How many agents can we hire for $25 billion? Build small outposts every 10-20mi using hesko barriers. That would work much better than a static barrier.

Couple of things. That wall is not very tall. And two men scaled it. How many migrant women and children are going to be scaling it like the two men? The wall we need to build should be maybe 30 feet tall. Two men scaled it but how many people were not able to scale it? Those two men could have been the only ones out of a 100 to manage to get over it. That would be a 98% reduction like the Israeli wall.

Ok you have severe amnesia. Didn’t we clarify multiple times that crossing the border illegally is a misdemeanor offense? Also again nobody has denied it’s a problem, but a wall is a rubbish solution.

One more thing ... you could hire illegals already here to put margarine or oil on the existing walls. Then, how many people are going to be able to scale it?

Those of you who posted links about polling, see what happened? Every big shot liberal on here had a negative comment to say about it. Buuuuuuuuuut...when they found an approval rating that they liked and fit their political agenda, they posted it.
Sorry Alan, you are so far left and so biased I can't believe you are in the military. Shame upon you soldier, shame!!!!
Shut up Flagpole.

Hiring illegals is . . . illegal.
