Robert Mueller discovers the rule of law

https://www.cnn.com/2018/05/16/politics/rudy-giuliani-robert-mueller-indictment/index.html

CNN reports what should have been obvious long, long ago. A sitting president can not be indicted under the Constitution. I suppose Robert Mueller hoped to storm the White House with guns drawn and arrest the President, believing that the Department of Justice ruled the world. Doctor-like in their mad conviction that they are God, emboldened with the politization of the CIA and FBI, and their willingness to overthrow the government of the United States, as they have grown accustomed to do to other countries, placing a leader of their selection rather than one duly elected, the Department of Justice just doesn't seem to realize who they're dealing with. Has it even occurred to them, that as Commander in Chief of the military, President Trump could call on the Armed Forces to defend him? They would do it, too. But, the President isn't "in the clear" they whimper. Mueller could send a nasty report to the House of Representatives, in whom is vested the only power to rein in a President. I'm sure the Executive Branch is terrified.
President Trump has complained loudly about the media. The fact is that the media has been taken over by the propaganda machine that is the CIA. They themselves call it "Operation Mockingbird." How many Americans approve of millions of dollars, if not billions, of tax money being spent to fund propaganda and political coups? Oh, but citizens can't complain or they will be ridiculed by Operation Mockingbird as wearing tin foil hats, even when the gross misdeeds of the CIA and NSA spying on Americans is well documented, and no matter how many buildings they blow up.

John 13

Written from memory

1. Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come to depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.
2. And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him.

3. Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God.
4. He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments, and took a towel, and girded himself.
5. After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded.

6. Then cometh he to Simon Peter, and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?
7. Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knows not now, but thou shalt know hereafter.

8. Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.

9. Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.
10. Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but shall be clean every whit. And ye are clean, but not all.
11. For he knew who should betray him, therefore said he, Ye are not all clean.

12. So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?
13. Ye call me Master and Lord, and ye say well, for so I am.
14. If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet, ye also ought to wash one another's feet.
15. For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.
16. Verily, verily, I say unto you, the servant is not greater than his lord, neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.
17. If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.

18. I speak not of you all. I know whom I have chosen. But that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me hath lifted up his heel against me.
19. Now I tell you before it come, that when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am he.
20. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.
21. When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.

22. Then the disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he spake.
23. Now there was, leaning on Jesus' bosom, one of the disciples, whom Jesus loved.
24. Simon Peter therefore beckoned unto him, that he should ask who it should be of whom he spake.
25. He then, lying on Jesus breast, saith unto him, Lord, who is it?

26. Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.
27. And after the sop, Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly.
28. Now no man at the table knew for what intent he spake this unto him.
29. And some of them thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy those things we have need of against the feast, or that he should give something to the poor.
30. He then, after the sop, went immediately out, and it was night.

31. Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.
32. If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify him.

33. Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me, and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go ye cannot come, so now I say to you.
34. A new commandment I give unto you, that ye love one another, as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
35. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one for another.

36. Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered him, Whither I go thou canst not follow me now, but thou shalt follow mr afterwards.
37. Peter said unto him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy sake.
38. Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily I say unto thee, the cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice.
