Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein said Sunday that the Justice Department does not 'engage in fishing expeditions.' During an interview on "Fox News Sunday," Rosenstein explained that impaneling a grand jury in general doesn't say anything about whether or not their will be an indictment.
My question is, does that mean that there are no red lines that Mueller or any special counsel can investigate under the terms of your order, anything he finds?
ROSENSTEIN: Chris, the special counsel is subject to the rules and regulations of the Department of Justice, and we don't engage in fishing expeditions. Now, that order that you read, that doesn't detail specifically who may be the subject of the investigation --
WALLACE: Right.
ROSENSTEIN: -- because we don't reveal that publicly.
But Bob Mueller understands and I understand the specific scope of the investigation and so, it's not a fishing expedition.
If what Rosenstein is saying is true, then hopefully Mueller will be required to keep his investigation on the subject on the imaginary 'Russian collusion' hoax.

Then exactly what violation of the law are you investigating since you don't have a specific person you can name as a subject? Hmmm?
‘If what Rosenstein is saying is true’
What has Rosenstein done to give us the slightest reason to trust one word out of his mouth? If I were never-Trump, I’d trust what Rosenstein has *done,* but even then I doubt I’d trust his words.
Once you have opened that can of worms, might as well go fishing.
No need of letting the worms go to waste. < /sarcasm >
They’re not investigating any specific person.
They’re not investigating any stated violation of law.
The scope of the investigation is ‘Russia.’
I thought investigating Russia was the province of the CIA. Since Mueller has got it handled it’s time to dismantle that redundant agency and use those billions of dollars on something useful.
Somebody in the background colluded with the media to create and promote the Russia/Trump collusion meme. Right thinking people think everybody worked themselves into a frenzy to the point Mueller was appointed Bullshit, stop right there. The Mueller appointment was in the works long, long before and was and is a witch hunt with the express purpose to destroy Trump.
Mueller wanted to get ahead of this rumor before he goes back to fishing.
I wonder if there’s a picture of him in fishing gear.
I’m sure their is a daily brief for the Rats in congress. Their is no way they wouldn’t demand status reports.
Actually, they are engaged in one right now. Words cannot express the loathing and revulsjon I feel toward the abject shameless whores now running thr FBI; the organization I and the whole planet once revered, but now commonly regard to be lower than proverbial whale feces.
The Justice Department does not even investigate Clinton and her Croney’s scandals. It is a fishing expedition regarding Trump and his
associates.
>If what Rosenstein is saying is true, then hopefully Mueller will be required to keep his investigation on the subject on the imaginary ‘Russian collusion’ hoax.
Rosenstein is lying sack of donkey excrement.
Tell that to Scooter Libby.
Here’s a clue as to how they plan to comport themselves: The entire cabal have taken out astronomical liability insurance on themselves. So if/when they overstep legality, and get sued for libel, etc., it costs them nothing. So after beginning this vendetta bereft of any normal decency or inhibitions; they have insulated themselves from needed regard for the law, as well. Any guesses as to how they’ll behave?
He LIES. never believe democrats.
CNN and MSNBC need to be notified of this as they are giddy over these indictments and ass holes like “SwallowWell” and the other smarmy slime ball “Adam Shifty” along with documented Vietnam liar “Bloomingidiothal” sound like Mueller has cart blanc to go where ever he wants to go.
Does anyone actually believe this??? Is this not just a ploy to try to calm us down as they proceed with the coup?
Ok, specifically what crime were you asked to investigate?
So according to Rosenstein, if Mueller expands the scope of his investigation, before he asks permission and if he finds something outside the scope of the investigation, before he asks permission, he can then ask permission to expand the scope.
Folks, the fix is in, and Rosenstein will allow it.

Damn straight. We know dung when we see it. No sale, Deep State.
Deputy AG On Mueller Special Counsel: We Dont Engage In Fishing Expeditions
Rosenstein in complicit in his support of this investigation.
The terms he has used to define what’s going on could be interpreted to mean whatever they want it to mean.
Thanks for nothing, Jeff Sessions!
