Don't tell Bluey but I dig you muchly.
There is no legitimate basis to fire Mueller. The very legitimate concerns about inappropriate bias within the investigative staff can be adequately addressed by the DOJ Inspector General and Mueller himself.

FOX should be fired. The whole network.
The bow-tie bozo and Hannity should be brought up on charges.

Except it isn't working.
If you say so (giggle). I'm quite happy for all to see you take that position.
Otherwise, Trump will need a new reason to delay implementing the sanctions, or will have to quickly become cozy with Angela Merkel, who opposes the new sanctions due to the Russian natural gas project affecting German domestic needs.
He hasn't given a reason for letting the October deadline on imposing more sanctions go past without doing anything, has he? And the Republican Congress, which almost unanimously passed the sanctions bill that Trump signed, hasn't called him on that, have they? Why would he need an excuse not to implement them in January? His administration gutted the unit in the State Department that would document and monitor the sanctions, and the Republican Congress hasn't said anything about that either.
And those demanding evidence that he's colluding with the Russians need go no farther than this--his purposeful failure to carry out the mandate of Congress on the tightening of sanctions on Russian. Those saying there is no evidence have it floating all around them. They just want to stick with this loser and traitor to the end.
As I recall, the trump people were originally saying Mueller would clear Trump by Thanksgiving.
Then by Christmas.
Now by early in the New Year.

They also said Mueller would send a letter to Trump declaring he was cleared. That would be a first. This seems all to be efforts within the Trump camp to keep the crazy man from hopping up and down. We'll see how it works out. If there's a different reality and reality gives the man a stroke, it will all have been worth it. It will have been more worth it if it gives some Trump dupes/dopes posting to this discussion board a reality-check stroke.
It's a roller coaster ride. Considering what has already happened, anything can happen from this point.
Trump's businesses have been using Deutsche Bank to fund its operations for a long time. (American banks have treated trump as toxic for decades) As you may know, DB was recently found to have laundered a lot of Russian loot.
Add to that the Kushners liquidity problems and their reliance on Chinese money and godknows what in Tillerson's Exxon closet and you have a White House backed almost completely by the USA's two largest adversaries.
We walked investigators through our yearlong effort to decipher Mr. Trump’s complex business past, of which the Steele dossier is but one chapter. And we handed over our relevant bank records — while drawing the line at a fishing expedition for the records of companies we work for that have nothing to do with the Trump case.
Republicans have refused to release full transcripts of our firm’s testimony, even as they selectively leak details to media outlets on the far right. It’s time to share what our company told investigators.
We don’t believe the Steele dossier was the trigger for the F.B.I.’s investigation into Russian meddling. As we told the Senate Judiciary Committee in August, our sources said the dossier was taken so seriously because it corroborated reports the bureau had received from other sources, including one inside the Trump camp.
The intelligence committees have known for months that credible allegations of collusion between the Trump camp and Russia were pouring in from independent sources during the campaign. Yet lawmakers in the thrall of the president continue to wage a cynical campaign to portray us as the unwitting victims of Kremlin disinformation.
We suggested investigators look into the bank records of Deutsche Bank and others that were funding Mr. Trump’s businesses. Congress appears uninterested in that tip: Reportedly, ours are the only bank records the House Intelligence Committee has subpoenaed.
Donald Trump’s former chief strategist Steve Bannon has described the Trump Tower meeting between the president’s son and a group of Russians during the 2016 election campaign as “treasonous” and “unpatriotic”, according to an explosive new book seen by the Guardian.
Bannon, speaking to author Michael Wolff, warned that the investigation into alleged collusion with the Kremlin will focus on money laundering and predicted: “They’re going to crack Don Junior like an egg on national TV.”
Bannon remarked mockingly: “The three senior guys in the campaign thought it was a good idea to meet with a foreign government inside Trump Tower in the conference room on the 25th floor – with no lawyers. They didn’t have any lawyers.
“Even if you thought that this was not treasonous, or unpatriotic, or bad shit, and I happen to think it’s all of that, you should have called the FBI immediately.”
Bannon went on, Wolff writes, to say that if any such meeting had to take place, it should have been set up “in a Holiday Inn in Manchester, New Hampshire, with your lawyers who meet with these people”. Any information, he said, could then be “dump[ed] … down to Breitbart or something like that, or maybe some other more legitimate publication”.
Bannon added: “You never see it, you never know it, because you don’t need to … But that’s the brain trust that they had.”
No banks will lend the Trumps money anymore because they have to sue to get him to pay up (which really should tell everyone about the Trumps being scammers right there). Amazingly, Deutsche Bank has loaned him hundreds of millions of dollars on very favorable terms. And it's Russian state banks, controlled directly by Putin, that hold all that paper (Russian state bank executives on the Deutsche Bank board). Anyone who doesn't understand that the Russians own the Trumps (who won't release their financials), which explains Trump's public love affair with the Russians, just doesn't want to believe obvious reality.
