The former attorney general confided to those tuning in over the weekend that Special Counsel Robert Mueller is a close friend who has already decided to indict President Donald Trump for obstruction of justice,but is waiting because he doesn’t yet have the evidence yet.

Gee I guess a year wasn't enough time.
Mueller knows better than anyone, he was head of the FBI
when Hillary's emails were hacked by Guccifer all the
way back in 2013!

Let's think about this in context, because that's what you're missing. What is the case that trump obstructed justice? He fired comey and asked comey if he could maybe let the flynn thing go. That's at best a weak case and probably not even a case at all. When did that happen? The first half of 2017. Here we are, a year later and mueller is still searching for evidence to bolster his case? Either Mueller is incompetent or this is a fishing expedition as the article says.
As far as what Holder did say — he's not claiming insider knowledge — he's making assumptions based on what he's seen in the media. He's basically projecting his own opinions over what he guesses might be Mueller's behavior. He really has no idea.
We have no idea if Mueller actually thinks there's a case to be made for obstruction or not
much less whether it has to do with the firing of Comey.
Me personally? I'm not comfortable saying at this point that I believe that Mueller is trying to bolster a case for obstruction against Trump.
Either way, what you should keep in mind is that Mueller will not be attempting to indict Trump for anything. The consensus has long been that a sitting president cannot be indicted. If Mueller thinks that there's a case for anything against Donald J. Trump, I would expect that it will be presented to the House Judiciary to do with what they will.
It's plausible that the House could vote to impeach (it takes a simple majority) but I wouldn't be overly concerned about Trump's fate even if *all of that* takes place. Removing the President would require a 2/3 vote in Senate. Unless somebody produces audio of him saying, "I know my friends are all guilty and I'm firing Comey to obstruct this investigation!" — there's not a chance in hell of getting enough Republicans onboard to remove Trump over firing Comey. It's just not going to happen.

Here, I'll help you out. This garbage you're posting is an unhinged interpretation of statements Holder made to Bill Maher. Here's how The Hill did it. Notice that they actually quoted Holder and identified where the statements were made. The reason David Keene of the Unitarian Church's mouthpiece didn't do either is because he wanted to lie straight to your face and have you run and disinform your peers.
Holder predicts Mueller trying to bolster obstruction of justice case
Former Attorney General Eric Holder said Friday that special counsel Robert Mueller likely already has a case for obstruction of justice against President Trump, and is waiting to bring the case before a grand jury.
In an interview on HBO's "Real Time with Bill Maher," Holder expressed faith that the sprawling Mueller probe would result in more charges.
"Well I think that you technically have an obstruction of justice case that already exists," Holder said. "I've known Bob Mueller for 20, 30 years. My guess is, he's just trying to make the case as good as he possibly can."
What he actually said was that he thinks Mueller has a case for obstruction and he's being very thorough to make sure the case is as good as it can be — which you'll note is nothing like the garbage from Mr. Keene-to-deceive-you.
Do you think Eric Holder is a honest politician or do you think he is something else?
Do you believe that Eric Holder has been honest?
At this point, it has become clear that you are what you appear to be.

I as an Indie, do not see why the left feels they know what is best for a free people anymore?
