Just saw a clip on IPOT re:Brian Killmeade interviewing John Dowd and came away with a possible explanation for why The Maestro kept RR around, and also perhaps why RR looked like a wax figure during AG Barr's speech.
Dowd wrote an article stating that RR had to answer for using the phony dossier to appoint mueller. That, along with our favorite anons latest, noting quite clearly:
"[Pg 11] Previously CLAS 'scope' [RR] to [MUELLER]
The scope memo [highlighted w/in Mueller report] confirms the 'dossier' was the 'tool' used by [RR] to justify SC and was the primary 'vehicle' to which [RR] tasked MUELLER."
So RR knew the dossier was weeks-old rotten cabbage before appointing mueller…he's fucked and he knows it. But why is he still "present?" Because not only does he have 20 years in jail staring him in the face for sedition, treason and likely a whole host of other things, he is at serious risk of accidentally shooting himself a couple times in the back of the head, arkansaciding himself to "take one for the team."
Where he is now, RR is safe and as long as he is singing he is not only protected he may be allowed some lightening of sentence.
He WANTS to be safe! He KNOWS things like just how involved "whomever" was/is and RR was noted several times as being meticulous so I'm thinking…hard drive(s)? And I'm sure RR has a good memory so…Everything RR knows - The Maestro and Q know.
