SCOOP: Rudy says Mueller's office told him they plan to complete investigation of Trump by Sept. 1. Rudy says if it goes longer it could improperly impact midterms. w/@maggieNYT https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/20/us/politics/mueller-trump-obstruction-september-giuliani.html …

1. Is There Any Way Of Shutting This Nosferatu Up?

[leftofcool]

2. I have a way but I can't say it here.

7. Got It

3. Only the obstruction part

The tweet is very misleading. Rudy's claim is that only the obstruction part would be finished by September.

[asiliveandbreathe]

11. Only the obstruction part?? - tweet VERY misleading??

Please help us understand? - Some of us at DU would like your advise , for clarity, of course...

[manor321]

13. The article

First sentence in the article:

The special counsel plans to finish by Sept. 1 its investigation into whether President Trump obstructed the Russia inquiry, according to the president’s lawyer Rudolph W. Giuliani,

Rudy is only talking about the obstruction of justice inquiry, not the collusion with Russia inquiry and everything else.

15. From Rudy Ghouliani???LOL -

"according to the president’s lawyer Rudolph W. Giuliani", LOL - he also said, there is a turd in the punchbowl..and a fly in the ointment - oh, sorry, those are descriptions of rudy...

4. I doubt that's what they told him...nt

5. Bullshit

Next lie, please.

[Frustratedlady]

6. Call Hillary. She could probably give you some insight about investigations and elections.

I seem to recall something about that during the 2016 go-round.

[lapfog_1]

12. According to the reporter that talk to Ghouliani

that's exactly what he said about influence the outcome of the election. Citing the impact of the DOJ announcements about Hillary in 2016!!!!

[asiliveandbreathe]

8. Muellers office???..indeed, rudy - Please continue, perhaps just a bit more specific

if you don't mind...

[RandySF]

9. I know of someone who was told the same thing by Detroit PD.

They wrapped it up it, all right, and he was arrested.

[Civic Justice]

10. Guilliani -- should be indicted.. (follow the money) and he'll be exposed for who and what he is....

[SonofDonald]

14. Just read a tweet by Scott Dworkin

That stated the dumpf cabal was bracing for some new indictments maybe coming this week, I sure hope it happens.

As for rudy knowing anything about a timetable is laughable, like they'd tell him anything......

[salin]

16. Trump is such as easy mark for his lawyers. He has been told

that the investigation will wrap up (and he'll be fine) by.... Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, etc. This scoop seems to be aimed (that is leaked) to calm down the twittering dotard and stem the damage being wreaked due to said twittering.

[janx]

19. Yes, and how pathetic

that these attorneys feel they have to do so.

[salin]

23. Clearly they are a specialized division of the adult day-care staff.

I think he agitates his lawyers - just in a different way - as much as he agitates the rest of the country.

[janx]

24. I don't even think Rudy is his lawyer. Rudy is there

to run political interference and PR; that's about all. Though you're right--maybe a little placating and day care thrown in.

[spanone]

17. rudy is lying for his pathetic client

hey rudy

[matt819]

18. raise your hands

Anyone who believes Mueller told this to Rudy. Anyobe? You there in the back, were you going to raise your hand?

[Roland99]

20. They didn't seem concerned with Benghazi or email investigations affecting election cycles.

[edhopper]

21. And then one time

in Band Camp.....

[Mr. Ected]

22. That Mueller's Office is downright chatty with Ole Rudy

I wonder if it's just a coincidence that other than these ongoing conversations with Giuliani, Mueller's people haven't leaked one iota of info to anyone else in the world.

Things that make you go "hmmmm".

[former9thward]

25. Why do you find this unusual?

Prosecutors talk to defense attorneys and defense attorneys talk to prosecutors. No one is "leaking" to anyone when they do this.

[Doodley]

26. It is time Rod Rosenstein issued a very public advisory to team Trump the STFU.
