But 50 percent said there should be further investigation, which is the path I would guess @SpeakerPelosi will choose. — PolitiTweet.org

Last weekend, WSJ-NBC poll said 21 percent of Americans support House taking up impeachment proceedings, down from 27 percent in June. Did today’s hearings change that math? — PolitiTweet.org

Holy smokes! You’d better hope that is not the case.😳 — PolitiTweet.org

When Nunes sheathes his sword, you know something is up. — PolitiTweet.org

Tonal shift from morning to afternoon is striking. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

One thing that is absolutely clear, when you piece everything Mueller has said, is that he does not share the AG’s conclusion that @realDonaldTrump “fully cooperated” with the probe. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Mueller has been by far the most emphatic about the ongoing threat of Russian subversion. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Just retweeting this from the initial exchange with Lieu. Mueller tried to qualify it immediately, just not very effectively. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Mueller should object to the idea that there was “no evidence of collusion.” There is a huge gulf between insufficient evidence to bring criminal charges and “no evidence.” — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

RT @CNN: GOP Rep. Ken Buck: “Could you charge the President with a crime after he left office?” Mueller: “Yes.” Buck: “You believe that..… — PolitiTweet.org

Ok, so maybe Rep. Turner didn’t get the don’t be snide memo. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

.@RepRatcliffe, who badgered Mueller in earlier session, takes a softer tone. Rs must have concluded during break that beating up on him was a bad look. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Nunes apparently employs a new strategy: deploy a mind-numbing blizzard of names and conspiracy theories in hopes that viewers turn off their TVs. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Rs are riding two horses: 1)The probe was thoroughly partisan, born of a corrupt provenance. 2) The probe was thorough and complete and exonerated the president. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Not a commentary on the content. The report is damning. That was reenforced today. He has been an exemplary public servant, as people are both sides attested, but he clearly was struggling today and that was painful. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

This is very, very painful. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Finally, Mueller fights back, provoked by the suggestion that he should have polled his prosecutors on their political views. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Mueller did agree with @tedlieu that he would have indicted @realDonaldTrump for obstruction. But he then tried to clean up his answer at the end of Lieu’s questioning, pulling back. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

The irony of the @GOP questioning is that Mueller bent over backwards in deference to the @POTUS. Didn’t insist on an interview. Didn’t act on obstruction, though his report clearly lays out a case for it. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

That’s HackS on Tap! — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

. @RepJeffries on obstructive acts described by Mueller report: “The President must be held accountable, one way or another.” He’s in House leadership. What does he mean? — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

This speed dating approach to questions is hard on Mueller. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

“I would just say if you don't want press coverage about race don't be a racist. That’s a little free advice for the president from me.” @murphymike on the latest @HackonTap Check out full episode, complete with Mueller and Dem debate previews. https://t.co/eXIQRd5utd — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Reality check here: the first entry in the so-called Steele dossier reported in June of 2016 that the Russians were running an operation, led by Putin, to interfere in the election on Trump’s behalf. That is now established fact. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Dems laying groundwork for obstruction around the @POTUS demands of his WH Counsel to fire Mueller, and then to lie about it. They read report. Mueller affirms it. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Jordan energetically spins the FBI-Was-Out-To-Get-Trump conspiracy theory, even after many of his colleagues stipulate that the Russians invaded our election and acted on behalf of @realDonaldTrump. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Gohmert drops the whole Pyle. Heavy with inference and nasty asides. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

And it helps explain why Mueller wanted his aide nearby. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

This is delicate to say, but Mueller, whom I deeply respect, has not publicly testified before Congress in at least six years. And he does not appear as sharp as he was then. — PolitiTweet.org
