Shot Across The Bow

By Baxter

Robert Mueller is a man of few words. These days, very few words. Since his appointment as Special Counsel last spring (which Republicans like Newt Gingrich praised to the skies), Mueller has been silent. He's too busy investigating the Trumpsters' collusion with the Russians.

But now that the Trump traitors feel the heat, they're going after Mueller like never before. The cranking up of the conservative attack machine — particularly their latest silly squawk that Mueller obtained transition emails inappropriately — has made lots of folks nervous that a firing is imminent. (Although King Tiny Hands denies it.)

So Team Mueller has decided they need to speak — briefly. Here's the official statement from spokesperson Peter Carr:

"When we have obtained emails in the course of our ongoing criminal investigation, we have secured either the account owner's consent or appropriate criminal process."

Ahem. Anybody else catch the use — not once, but twice — of the word "criminal"? We think that's not an accident. We cats PURR.
