Bob Mueller be like…
Former special counsel Robert Mueller has agreed to NOT fight the subpoenas he’s received and will appear before BOTH the House Judiciary and Intelligence Committees on July 17! Woot! Woot!
As you may have heard somewhere, Mr. Mueller spent two (2) years investigating Russian Interference and issued a report that no one in Congress has read in its entirety, so his testimony will be like those children reading thingies at the library.
Robert Mueller has agreed to testify before Congress pursuant to subpoena.
Russia attacked our democracy to help Trump win. Trump welcomed and used that help. As Mueller said, that should concern every American.
And now, every American will get to hear directly from Mueller.

I am pleased to announce that @HouseJudiciary and House Intel will have Special Counsel Robert Mueller testify in open session on July 17, pursuant to a subpoena issued this evening. https://t.co/wR0CEVqpJC
We look forward to having Mr. Mueller testify, as do all Americans. pic.twitter.com/UEKihMEYXI

Congress knows that Americans will tune in to watch Mueller, so even if the famously reluctant witness only goes over what is in the report (which no one has read), it will still make headlines! And maybe Americans’ sentiment will move towards impeachment
Maybe Nancy Pelosi might watch? Who knows!
Also/too: imagine the Twitter-tantrum of our Totally Stable Genius! He’ll be tweeting like a Beagle in the vacuum factory!
Yay, my fave gif is back! Stalking Owl be like Mueller!
I’m not getting too fired up…remember the letdown when the Mueller report came out and was pissed on by Barr? Republicans won’t let Mueller’s testimony to go without some type of interference. But perhaps this time Mueller will share bits of information or will clarify elements from the report that were denied or misread. Or not. But we can at least, at this point, hope he gets to testify in person.

It sounds funny, okay — could our revered host explain it, please?

How does YOUR Beagle act when you vacuum? If he goes into a full-blown frenzy, then you have your answer.

I was going to say “like a terrier at a skateboard park,” but I thought for sure that the war between Beagles and vacuums was better known.

Headlines I’ve seen indicate FatNixon “lashes out” over the Mueller news. Because lashing out is what innocent people do.

Mueller set to testify on the 17th. So get your quatloos out, place your bets. Does the war with Iran star on the 16th, 17th or 16th?

Whenever war with Iran starts, I sure hope it’s over before Barron turns 18, so that the poor boy doesn’t develop bone spurs.
