Firing Mueller and/or Sessions before end of the week seems a possibility.

Other Trump associates in recent days have been circulating links to federal fundraising databases showing several of Mueller’s new hires have given to Democrats. They include Weissmann, who is on detail from his post as head of DOJ’s criminal fraud division, who donated $2,300 to Obama during the 2008 campaign; Mueller’s former law partner, James Quarles, who donated $4,600 to Obama for the 2008 and 2012 campaigns and $2,700 to Clinton in 2016 (FEC records show he’s also donated to prominent Republicans, including Sen. George Allen and Rep. Jason Chaffetz); and Jeannie Rhee, a former DOJ attorney who donated $5,400 to Clinton in 2015 and 2016, as well as $4,800 to Obama in 2008 and 2011.

 

Rhee also represented the Clinton Foundation in 2015, where her partner was Democratic Washington powerhouse attorney Jamie Gorelick — who now represents Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump.

 

Morris, who now supports the Trump White House, called the special counsel’s hiring of past Democratic donors “a huge mistake on Mueller’s part.”

 

“He has to have a staff of virgins,” Morris said.

 

 

 

Trump simply can't fire Mueller...the other point the GOP is arguing is the close (and pre-existing, for man years) relationship between Comey and Trump.

 

Otoh, no major findings, it will be harder for Dems to assail the results as a whitewashing of the truth by the right.
