Stop whining. Bob did his job, now Congress should do it's job.

I have little patience and less agreement with my fellow progressives who are gnashing their teeth about Mueller’s testimony today. He’s exactly what I’ve said he is: a Marine combat veteran, a prosecutor, and a career FBI guy. He is, without question, a man of rectitude. The Republicans attempting to impugn his motives or performance need to check the ststus of their souls.

‘Rectitude’ carries many implications. Along with honesty, integrity, and forthrightness come implications of staying between the lines and following procedures. He did his job. He expects the House to do *its* job.

Bring impeachment articles to the House floor. Let the Senate try it. It seems, right now, that the Republican Senate majority will fail utterly to behave with anything like rectitude. At least make them do it in public.

spoke to Rep. Cloud for quite a while. For me the evidence is overwhelming that Trump knew of the conspiracy although his henchmen did his dirty work and definitely is guilty of obstruction. No doubts.
