    This indicates Mueller has put a significant amount of testimony before a particular grand jury and he believes that testimony will likely result in charges within the next six months. If he needs more time, the testimony will be read from transcripts to a new grand jury.

    Today Trump claimed he will seize large swaths of land from private citizens at gunpoint and declare a “state of emergency” to build a wall without Congressional approval. In the face of tyranny, Republicans are outraged ... by a freshman Member of Congress using profanity.

    The U.S. Constitution gives Congress the power to raise and spend money. Presidential “emergency” powers to spend money that has not been appropriated is unconstitutional. It’s the stuff of tyrants, not presidents.

    Trump should read the Constitution: “All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives ... No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law.” U.S. Constitution, Article I.

    This isn’t the first time a Chicago lawmaker has been charged with a federal crime, but the case does bring up several questions. VIDEO: Former federal prosecutor gives us his take:
