Anyone pick this up on Rachel tonight?

I'm watching the re-run of Rachel since I wasn't home earlier.

She talked about the court filing that came out late last night giving Mueller authority to investigate Manafort's Ukraine ties.

She mentioned on page 42 of the filing, it seems to indicate that the prosecutors on Muellers team are actually independent and work through other divisions including FARA and Tax division and that if Mueller got fired, his team of prosecutors would continue the investigation.

In other words, Trump firing Mueller still won't shut down this investigation.

That sounds promising, although I'm still concerned Trump will get away with this due to not being able to be indicted.

4. I'd almost prefer if EVERYONE around trumpft were indicted

becasue if they aren't, when (not if) trumpft is gone they will still be there to continue these republican policies. Let trumpft blather on but have no power. That would also get more democratic votes next couple of elections.

If trumpft were gone, and pense were in charge nothing would change except the vulgarities and tweets.
