Senators move to protect Mueller inquiry from Trump interference

WASHINGTON

Special Counsel Robert Mueller III received a bipartisan boost from Capitol Hill on Thursday, even as news broke that he’d moved to a more serious phase of his investigation of Russia’s meddling in the 2016 election and whether Donald Trump’s campaign or associates colluded with Moscow to help him win the presidency.

In a clear warning to the president not to mess with Mueller, two bipartisan sets of senators Thursday proposed laws that would require judicial oversight of the firing of a special counsel.

Angered over the ongoing Russia probe, Trump has talked about firing Mueller. Meanwhile, the special counsel, who has been on the job less than three months, has recently impaneled a grand jury in Washington, the logical next step in the inquiry, which has been built on many months of investigating by the FBI.

The pressure doesn't stop until we've successfully manufactured something. ;)

You know Trump is going to come downstairs at noon one day and fire the whole justice department and the FBI. Then replace them with his relatives and Fox Gnus personalities. Congress is trying to save Trump from himself. They are trying to save America from his childishness.
