to smear Mueller with a sexual assault allegation which was unfortunately (for them) specific enough to detail the city and date when, based on contemporaneous newspaper reports, Mueller was in a different city. When asked "Are you both prepared for federal prison?" they said they were not.

More people in Trump's orbit should be confronted with such questions. Just to highlight that everyone with two brain cells knows they are full of crap and/or breaking the law.

I doubt he's too worried about it, though this time he should probably have reason to be.

I think they may make their statement, whatever coverup bullshit it is, and merely end the "press briefing". Having the press attempt to shine the light of truth on these vile, contemptuous monsters wouldn't serve them well, in my opinion. Anything trying to alter their prepackaged narrative would be counter-productive to all the time and deceit they've spent forming it.

I guess I just see it as a departure from the usual Trump iron-fisted control of the message. I really do hope I'm wrong, and the press shreds Barr and Rosenstein. I think the media (at least some of them) are waiting to tear Barr a new asshole. I hope they get that chance.

Charges for not recusing himself, and conspiracy. He's compromised, and should be investigated for his Alfa Bank ties. Allowing the White House to see it and not Congress will backfire o him too.
