if I will have a good time or not..At this link you will find 35 questions many think congress should ask Mueller....including questions from Readers - my feeling about this, if Mueller answers any and all of these questions, having read through them all, we will have a more clear picture - I just don't see how the questions presented at this link veers from the report...

I support your sentiments 100% - I will try to make a long story short from meeting
the wife of one of my hubby's golfing friend last night-
Friendly enough on our back patio - she is from TX...small talk, getting to know you kinda chit chat..then she goes into a story about her friend, who's husband is carrying on a tryst at the CC (Country Club..of which I have ZERO interest in)..
She tells me she confronted the little twit in the lady's room..and how everyone at the CC knows about their affair...she is telling me ALL this...(oh, and the little twit went around saying this gal from TX hit her, not true).. okay..they get ready to go..hand shake, hug, and then she says - "I'm for trump" - clearly she did not expect my reaction - SHE JUST MET ME - WTF..
I took her story of confrontation in the lady's room, and invited her to join me in my lady's room..just she and I, and we can have a little chat..AND I told her I wouldn't hit her...I was emphatic, but moderate in tone...kinda like guys do, let's take this outside..but, with a smile on my face..flustered, she was...
Walking out to their golf cart in our driveway..she took a swipe at the eight years of Obama...REALLY???walking away????? I got the last word as they drove off...I said " get used to it", remember this name", and I threw out my choice for Dem Prez... and said "by now"...this all transpired within 2 minutes walking out..tops
..
I told my husband, (we have agreed to NOT talk politics with HIS friends), because he was thinking I started it, I said, "she started it"....my motto has always been - I won't start it, but, I sure as hell will finish it....boom.....he said now that I know what happened...good on you girl....the kicker..SHE KNOWS hubby is a DEM....he said I will take care of it at the CC..I told him I can fight my own political battles...with a smile.....
Totally agree..I said yesterday, I wish I could just call the pentagon and tell them to stand down..
2 brothers Viet Nam, and my son, Ret. Navy Chief, 21 years...he said he would NOT put a uniform on for this pos.....he was in the gulf at the beginning of the shit show, shock and awe bs....more military need to step up and sound off...
At least some in congress recognize the need for legislation on the war front...

Chairman Nadler is sooo ready..from his home page...the timeline at the link - enough...
Tonight, in the middle of good faith negotiations with the Attorney General, the Department abruptly announced that it would instead ask President Trump to invoke executive privilege on all of the materials subject to our subpoena. This is, of course, not how executive privilege works. The White House waived these privileges long ago, and the Department seemed open to sharing these materials with us earlier today. The Departments legal arguments are without credibility, merit, or legal or factual basis.

I read this last night at DU, and have posted elsewhere..didn't want it to get lost......
Top 4 Things To Look For in Mueller Report in Light of Barr's Letter - Just Security
The more we question - my excerpts don't do the article justice..
https://www.justsecurity.org/63377/top-4-things-to-look-for-in-muellers-report-in-light-of-barrs-letter/
Barrs determination that the evidence developed during the Special Counsels investigation is not sufficient to establish that the President committed an obstruction-of-justice offense has rightly generated considerable debate already..
1. Counterintelligence findings on coordination with Russia.
Will Muellers report shed light on the intentions of the American participants in the infamous summer 2016 Trump Tower meeting, the intentions and actions of members of the presidential transition team who met with Russian officials including allegedly to create a backchannel with the Kremlin, and apparently coordinated efforts on the part of the Trump circle to conceal all their Russian contacts?
2. Counterintelligence findings on whether Trump is compromised.
Barrs letter also sheds no light on what Mueller found, if anything, regarding Trumps ongoing relationship with the Kremlin. In particular, may Trumps financial interests in Russia present a national security threat?
3. The several matters Mueller referred to other officers for further action./b]
Potentially unfinished business (Jerome Corsi and individuals who may have made false statements before Congress) or hitherto undisclosed active criminal investigative matters?
4. Alleged conspiracy and coordination with Russia.
But thats not to say Mueller failed to find evidence of those crimes. As former U.S. Attorney Joyce Vance explained, it may mean anything from Mueller finding zero evidence to his finding a mountain of evidence just shy of beyond a reasonable doubt.
Barr's letter IS NOT the Mueller Report..but then, you know that!!!!
Truly a most beautiful event in AZ - messy for some..but beautiful for snow watchers...
