You've gotta be kidding me. Mueller is investigating #KELLYANNECONWAY for violating the Hatch Act on TV during LIVE INTERVIEWS?
Am I understanding this correctly? It took him 10 months to find a violation she supposedly did ON VIDEO?
I realize DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz is the one looking into political activity inside the DOJ to benefit one political campaign while attacking the other one during the 2016 election, but come on. If Mueller's going down this path too....
I'd like to thank the 20 or so people who just corrected me after I read this tweet and took it at face value:

So if this Office of the Special Counsel that is not Bob Mueller is keenly interested in disciplining federal employees who engage in political activity on the job, I'd like to point them to several Department of Justice employees they could give a stern talking to.
What's the official position of the Office of the Special Counsel on federal employees who leak confidential information to media outlets to accomplish partisan political purposes? Asking for a friend of @Comey. 🤔

I'm halfway convinced it was the **TRUMP TEAM ITSELF** in the White House sending out people to be anonymous sources spreading these "OMG Kushner is an IDIOT!" stories in the Fake News Media.
Trump is a master of information warfare.
If anybody started putting 2 and 2 together and snooping around what Kushner was up to, I can totally see the White House sending people out to anonymously seed the media with stories like...this:
All the anonymous sources were in agreement: this Kushner guy is just benefiting from having married Trump's daughter, he's in way WAY over his head, has got no clue what he's doing.
The only thing **different** about how Comey won't answer the questions put to him by these Congressional commitees [other than the standard "I don't recall"] is he won't be saying:
"I can't comment on that because it's currently part of an ongoing federal investigation."
Instead Comey will be saying THIS:
"On the advice of my legal counsel, I invoke my Fifth amendment rights."
or
"My counsel has advised me not to discuss this, and so I won't."
To people endlessly asking me if President Trump is aware of and taking steps to combat this whole "Color Revolution" playbook:
Yes, he is aware of it.
Yes, he is taking steps to deal with it.
No, he's not going to tell you what they are.
The biggest assumption people make is because Trump hasn't **publicly rolled out** his strategy for dealing with this threat that is all over the media & we're all talking about it is because....he's blind to it.
I've had to endlessly explain this for going on 2 years now:
While the investigation is ongoing, you wouldn't learn anything from subpoenaing these goons because they'd do what COMEY & STRZOK & Mueller & everybody else did when they testified before Congress.
Right?
How many times did you want to hear over and over
"I'm sorry I cannot answer that question because the matter is currently under investigation by the Dept. of Justice" or the dozen of variations to that?
Because THAT'S what you would have heard before now.
