Kicking this now that the long-anticipated report has been submitted to Barr.
Does anyone have any updated predictions or thoughts? The wait is agonizing!
I just happened to see the president on tv (with the sound muted) at his Florida club and I sensed an overwhelming feeling of panic - almost to the point of tasting bile. I had to stop watching at that point. It would not surprise me if he does more outlandish things to distract from the report. I definitely think that we reached some kind of milestone today - as was predicted by some for March. I’d be interested also to hear what others are sensing.
I read a Justice department official said Mueller has no further indictments in the investigation
I think that simply means that OSC will not be issuing any "further" indictments because they are 1) already indicted under seal and have been for a long time, and/or because the indictments will be coming from other places, like SDNY.
I knew he passed some stuff off to other departments but wouldnt the indictments under seal have been released with the report?
No. The indictments are separate and can be released anytime based on what the prosecutors in all the different departments are doing. I'm not a lawyer and don't know all the legalese of it, but it's my understanding, from what I've read and studied, that Mueller and team farmed out a lot to various people and places. This thing has a lot of tenacles. It will be interesting to watch it all unfold.
Trump currently has transiting Pluto opposite his Saturn, which means abuses of power now are being exposed and come back to haunt him. A loss of authority.
I am very concerned. The right are going wild celebrating on social media. Will Trump ever go away?
The prediction I made about Trump and Mueller back at the end of December I feel still holds. It's in the YouTube that I posted on the Prediction page in the left sidebar (title: Jeanne Mayell 2019 Predictions). The part about Mueller and Trump's longevity begins around minute 4.44.
The bottom line is that I’d seen an impediment to Mueller’s investigation although I didn't know what it was, but that nevertheless the truth comes out for everyone to see. This moment in time is probably that impediment but it’s temporary.
I also saw at the time that the information and investigation, like Polarberry said, has many tentacles and is spread all over the place, both in other jurisdictions and in the FBI. It will take time to come out.
The fact that the Right is celebrating reminds me of Bush and Cheney standing on that air craft carrier after the initial U.S. invasion of Iraq, declaring victory. It's not over yet. And they lost in the end.
Meanwhile I felt the president remains in office through the latter part of 2020. I did not feel there'd be an impeachment because what is the point of impeaching him if the Senate won't remove him from office? I felt that he will not be in danger until there is a blue wave in both houses.
