“Thank you for so quickly responding to the Mueller hearing. Bob Mueller is a hero. I agree completely with Preet's take on the hearing. The facts that came out of it were damning. Only someone steeped in rightwing conspiracy theories would have been impressed by any other part of it. And if Bob Mueller was slow, careful, and seemed, at times, a little frail, he is more of a hero than ever for enduring it. So appreciate what you said, Preet, about him not having had to do this, that it was a public service, and obviously a pretty thankless one. I admire him for refusing to be, any more than he had to be, a soundbite in a political ad. If he had said one critical thing about Trump or Barr, immediate headlines would be "Mueller slams Trump/Barr." There is nothing, nothing, nothing to be gained by his getting into that food fight, and I thought, contrary to some of the pundits questioning his acuity, that he showed tremendous acuity in avoiding it. It was, predictably, an ugly minefield. I also thought the Democrats on the committees, and Will Hurd, did a really excellent job, and showed unusual discipline, and the requisite respect. So thank you for saying what you have!”Read full review »
