"Sources:" Robert Mueller, Alleged to Have Written the Mueller Report, Can't Testify to Congress Now Because He Has Been Living in a "Memory Care Facility" for Some Years

When Mueller testified about "his" report, he was unable to remember many details about "his" report.

Update: Here's a contemporary tweet about that.

Robert Mueller literally just said he wasn't familiar with Fusion GPS. My Lord. My Lord.

Jul 24, 2019

Some cynics thought that Robert Mueller was a mentally-failing man who had nominally been put in charge of the "Mueller investigation" to give it (undeserved) credence and authority, while the actual leader of the investigation was the extremely partisan corrupt Democrat activist Andrew Weissman, lately of MSNBC.

And it just so happens that a handful of years later and Mueller's mind has slipped enough that he has to live in a memory care facility.

Robert Mueller, the former FBI director and special counsel, is reportedly living in a memory care facility, raising questions about his ability to respond to a new House subpoena. The report comes as Mueller is being called to testify about the FBI's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case.
Key Details:
Real Clear Politics reported Monday that Robert Mueller has been living in a memory care facility "for the past few years," citing unnamed sources.
Despite the report, the House Oversight Committee issued a subpoena requiring Mueller to appear for a deposition on September 2 regarding the FBI's decades-old Epstein investigation.
The Committee declined to confirm or deny Mueller's reported condition, telling the Daily Caller it would engage in "good faith negotiations with all parties."
Diving Deeper:
Robert Mueller is allegedly residing in a memory care facility, according to a report published Monday by Real Clear Politics. The former FBI director and special counsel, who led the high-profile investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election, has reportedly been in the facility "for the past few years," sources told investigative journalist Paul Sperry.
The report surfaced as the House Oversight Committee announced it had issued Mueller a subpoena to testify about the FBI's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case. Chairman James Comer is seeking answers about a long-dormant federal investigation into Epstein that occurred during the George W. Bush administration.
While the Oversight Committee confirmed the subpoena was issued, it declined to comment on Mueller's alleged condition. "The subpoenas issued are legally binding and duly authorized," a spokesperson told the Daily Caller. "As always, the Committee will engage in good faith negotiations with all parties."
The report from Real Clear Politics has raised concerns about Mueller's cognitive capacity and ability to testify. If confirmed, it would mark a dramatic turn for the once-revered lawman who served as FBI director under Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama and later as special counsel in one of the most politically charged investigations in recent memory.
Mueller's 2019 report famously concluded that investigators did not find sufficient evidence that the Trump campaign conspired or coordinated with Russia to influence the 2016 election -- a finding that sharply contradicted years of media speculation and Democrat accusations.
It remains unclear how the Oversight Committee will proceed if Mueller is unable to participate in the deposition. No official statement has been released by Mueller or his representatives regarding the report or the subpoena.

You might think, "But the Mueller report exonerated Trump, why claim that the partisan Lizard Person Andrew Weissman was the true author?"

The report only exonerated Trump of Russian collusion, which it had to do, because there was literally zero evidence to say otherwise. Everything in Hillary Clinton's "dossier" was just the hallucination of an old, drunk conspiracy theorist.

But Weissman's report nevertheless insisted -- unethically -- that Trump "may have" committed obstruction of justice by simply refusing to answer some questions or even just by having his attorney make the argument that he didn't have to disclose some papers. They criminalized just having a counselor during a potentially-criminal investigation.

Trump did not obstruct justice just because he spoke to his lawyers before rushing to comply with baseless demands.

And he didn't obstruct justice because that charge requires materiality. If you are not forthcoming about a question that turns out to not be a material fact in any crime, you're not guilty of obstruction of justice. I thought we all learned this when Bill Clinton claimed his many lies under oath were "not material" and thus not perjury (or obstruction of justice).

And it's completely unethical to claim that the man you've been investigating, and have found no evidence establishing he committed any crimes, "may have" obstructed justice. You can't prove it, you can't charge it, but you have to give the left a bone so you stoke up suspicions about what Trump "may have" done, but which you can't prove or even charge.

It was this claim of what Trump "may have" been guilty of that permitted Andrew Weissman's many, many media allies, some of whom he would soon be soon be joining on MSNBC, to claim that the Mueller report didn't really exonerate Trump, because he "may have" been guilty of unspecified crimes asserted WITHOUT EVIDENCE. Weissman turned the left's complete loss into an contested matter so that Rachel Maddow would not feel too bad about herself.

So yeah, I think Weissman was the real writer of the report and Mueller was just a steeply mentally-declining front. Because supposedly he's "so respected."

That was the root premise of the Mueller Report, yes. That and various relative. "We proved nothing, we have no evidence of wrongdoing, there is no basis in fact for any of the allegations, but Trump is nonetheless a very very very bad mad who should be destroyed." That is the *entire* report when all the extraneous language is stripped away.

Did Weissman write it? Did Mueller? Who cares? It doesn't really matter. The report was the inevitable conclusion of a very large multifaceted organizational system with its own imperatives. The driver of the infernal machine is incidental accident of circumstance. The machinery had to do what it did, regardless of its putative driver. Schemer or dotard, genius or retard, it makes no difference. Any other person at the head of it would have done the same thing, for the same reasons.

Even that strikes me as a difficult distinction. Lying is one thing. Refusing to engage is another. You have the G-d-given right to say nothing. Or to drop insults and then go back to saying nothing.

94 Andrew Weissman also served as General Counsel of the Federal Bureau of Investigation from 2011 to 2013.
Starting in 2015, Andrew Weissmann became chief of the Criminal Fraud Section of the U.S. Department of Justice. In June 2017, he was appointed to a management role on the 2017 special counsel team headed by Robert Mueller. To assume that position, Weissmann took a leave from his Department of Justice post. The special counsel's investigation concluded in 2019. At that time, Weissmann returned to his practice in the private sector.

101 I still think Mueller was window dressing from the onset regardless of his mental acuity. I seem to recall the media really playing up the angle that Mueller was a republican. Somehow, that was supposed to add weight to the investigation and minimize opposition to their methods.

Keep in mind that the media has yet to officially recognize the "never trump" moniker as valid.

102 It wasn't about making the media "feel" better. It was an operation to give the media material to control the narrative 24/7. That's a lot of time to fill. I voxplained it back then.

Otherwise Trump would control the narrative because it's kind of his thing.

Kalhan Rosenblatt of NBC News says, "[w]hile there are several definitions for the stare, the most common meaning is a vacant expression a Gen Zer gives in response to a question. The stare occurs in classrooms, restaurants, at work and more settings." The Gen Z stare has garnered notice in the mainstream media in July 2025.

125 People are acting like we need to 'be kind' to Mueller because he was a poor old man that was being exploited.

No.

Fuck that shit.

He KNEW he wasn't running the investigation, and had NO IDEA what the report that had his name on it had in it.

Nobody forced him to be the figurehead for a joke of an investigation. He could have quit at any time, AND SHOULD HAVE.

It's pathetically obvious what happened. The RINO posse of Paul RINO and Bitch McConnell told Mueller that they were going to get rid of Trump, that there was 'overwhelming evidence', and that he didn't need to do anything but put his name on it.

Then when they couldn't find any evidence they left him holding the bag.

But Mueller is the guilty one. It was HIS name on a report that he hadn't investigated and hadn't produced.

Screw him.

I think this is the easiest answer to any court battles the left wants to fight.

Don't allow imputed counts of illegals, and send an ICE agent with the census people. If you encounter an illegal immediately deport him.

Do this a few times and the illegals will refuse to allow themselves to be counted anyway.

I remember seeing clips of him making his report to Congress, and he seemed to be mostly unaware of what was actually in the report, or of how it was made. I think he was already approaching Joe Bidenesque mental capacity then. Note how the report said he's been in this facility for "years" - his mind has been gone for a long long time.

191 They criminalized just having a counselor during a potentially-criminal investigation.

Michael Cohen is a real piece of work, but I was shocked the FBI would raid his home hotel room, and office and arrested him for some crap over taxi medallions, we still don't know what was in the search warrant.

Agents seized emails, tax records, business records, and other matter related to several topics, including payments made by Cohen to Stormy Daniels, and records related to Trump's Access Hollywood controversy. Recordings of phone conversations Cohen made were also obtained.
...
The search warrant itself has been sealed, making it unavailable to the public.[157] The FBI also sought documents pertaining to Cohen's ownership of taxi medallions.[9][158] Cohen's taxi fleet is operated by Gene Freidman, who is facing legal trouble for alleged tax evasion.
From his Wiki Page.

All of that to get Trump by breaking attorney-client privilege and forcing Cohen to testify for leniency.

Cohen is useless or it could've worked.

It was one of the clearest abuses of power, among many, that the the Mueller & Weissman along with the FBI-DOJ demonstrated during Trump's first term.

Yup. Taxes are paid, ultimately, by people. Some of it is paid by the manufacturer if he can't get away with shifting it entirely - and right now, they can't. We're too big a market. They're eating a part of it. We are eating the rest.

*All* of us. Without exception. Which is why the tax doesn't feel so onerous. It isn't a progressive taxing scheme. If you buy foreign goods, you pay a small part of it. Period. No exceptions.

I'd prefer a flat sales tax on new goods and services with no exceptions of any kind, for anyone. That's the fairest tax. But tariffs are pretty fair, all in.

2. Elicit at least a modicum of pity for Mueller due to his alleged condition.

3. If Mueller is called to testify under oath, have him use the phrase "I don't remember" a lot. Use the Iran-Contra testimony by Ronald Reagan as a precedent.

The conclusion remains to be seen. The initial goal was satisfied: they contained and hobbled Trump, at least for his first term, and they prevented a consecutive term.

With time, we *may* find that it failed, and that their damage is undone and the rights and "norms" of the pre-Trump era are restored in terms of restraint of state, but I kind of doubt it.

It's a terrible thing watching someone's essential self slip away, their personality disintegrate. It's even more terrible when they still have those brief windows of clarity where they know what's happening to them. In Mueller's case, it's even worse since they exploited that old man's senility to allow them plausible deniability down the road.

One of the benefits of tariffs over direct taxes is that it changes the relationship between the government and the taxed: the taxed are considered a resource, not a source of legitimacy or even really, votes and support.
National sales taxes are an issue because it requires the feds to pay attention to sales over the entire country, which to be honest they have trouble doing even for gas taxes if they are levied on individual sales.

Which is easy to do. The bigger problem is it takes the problem of direct taxation and amplifies it.

The actual big problem is that a fair, universal fixed tax with no loopholes is a terrible thing for far, far, too many people who pay nothing at one end and manipulate the hell out of the tax code at the other, and those in the middle who facilitate.

324 Can't say I've ever bought a beer because a hot woman was drinking it in an ad...

Posted by: 18-1 at August 07, 2025 01:15 PM (t0Rmr)

Can't honestly say you didn't either, I suppose.

A lot of mental hooks in advertising is in your subconscious. You see a product as appealing with a hot babe or babes having fun, fawning over the guy using the product, and your subconscious tucks that away, even if you paid it no conscious mind.

Then you are standing in the grocery store, staring at a wall of beers, and you are drawn to a particular brand over another, you don't know why, and your conscious asks, "Why not?".

325 If the WNBA had *any* instinct for marketing, they would have announced the immediate availability of team-branded dildos in their merch stores. Even hand them out to the first 250 adult attendees as door prizes when the first shipment came in.

They were handed an absolutely *perfect* opportunity to show some humor and build some goodwill. It should shock nobody that they failed to convert.

I disagree that it would build goodwill. It gets tiresome the more places a person cannot go if they don't want their noses rubbed in whatever sexual thing somebody else is involved in. I unsubscribed to a women's clothing catalog when they started selling sex toys. I have no issue if people want to buy stuff like that, but I don't want to have to see it if I'm not looking for it.

Oh, for a broad-market thing, absolutely.

But this is the WNBA. The only people going to their games are there for the message, or there to oppose the message. The WNBA doesn't have actual fans and it isn't an actual sports entertainment product.

They should have sold some where the "item" was made to look like their favorite WNBA Players, with team colors and the head made to look like that player's head, with a face on it and everything.

Nah there's no easy way out of that fix. No one really wants that branding. You could do like a dildo toss one night and give a fan 25k if they get it in the basket or whatever just to show humor but it's crude and not how one generally wants to market oneself. Show humor and let the storm pass but don't own blatant vulgarity.

We know now that the WNBA was never a sport, never wanted to make money, but was a grift. Once a few people came who people actually wanted to watch, the fix was in to injure her at any turn and the refs and league execs just nod.
