I think that may depend on how the elections turn out.
Will Mueller issue subpoenas and indictments?
Oh, yes, I think he will.

(17,863 posts)Senate race run off? Actually I don't understand why he was restricted anyway since neither Trump nor Pence were on the ballot.

(146,288 posts)Besides, losing the House majority will piss him off mightily, since the House is the source of all funding bills.
I predict he's going to be pissed.

Just like him to take the cowards way out.

(10,828 posts)tomorrow, within the next few days. The Trumpster's been itching to fire and replace Sessions which means Rosenstein's head will be on a platter. Sarah Huckabee Sanders is expected to leave and I wouldn't be surprised if the DHS Secretary is on her way out. Mnuchin is also expected to take a hike (his wife has complained about being mistreated in the press; people have made fun of her, boo-hoo). Then there's Zinke. Hoping he gets the axe. The Mattis rumors are worrisome because he appears one of the few sane members of the Administration.
In parallel to all that is Mueller and his team working quietly behind the scenes but no doubt ready to step back into the headlines shortly with news on Stone, Don, Jr and the rest of the circus.
We only think we've seen drama thus far. The fireworks have only just begun

(5,499 posts)Sessions and Rosenstein are going to be fired quickly. However replaced will fire Mueller. This is about buying time and creating confusion. The more the better. It will also be an attempt to bait the new House into proceeding with impeachment. He is willing to gamble on the Senate acquittal.
