Trump Delivers A Warning To Mueller
The Daily Caller ^ | 07/19/17 | Alex Pfeiffer

Posted on 07/20/2017 9:31:37 AM PDT by Enlightened1

President Donald Trump told The New York Times Wednesday that it would be improper for special counsel Robert Mueller to investigate his family’s finances in a manner not related to the probe into Russian election interference.

Mueller, a registered Republican, has hired at least seven Democratic donors to join his investigative team, including one attorney who donated roughly $34,000 to federal Democratic candidates.

Trump has previously called this hiring practice “ridiculous,” and was asked by the Times whether he would ever order the Justice Department to fire Mueller. He said he would not do so, but he did say that Mueller would cross a red line by opening a broad investigation into his family’s finances unrelated to the Russia investigation.

“I think that’s a violation. Look, this is about Russia,” Trump said.

It's time for President Trump to go ahead and fire Mueller, and his attempted coup on the 2016 election. We all know that's what it's really about. If this was really about the Russians, then Hillary and Podesta would be behind bars.

It's time to close down this witch hunt. It's a waste of tax payers money.

Mueller is out of control and the DOJ is NOT doing its job in controlling this investigation. Trump making a mistake letting this go on.

Mueller has already fired back, intentionally. It’s time to blow this mess up, but first, DJT should begin to expose Mueller, Comey and the Obama/Hillary donors that have been hired to criminalize his presidency. Then, after that, lower the hammer.

I thin the warning shot he fired across Sessions’ bow was just a prelude to bigger and better things....

It’s on Rod Rosenstein to do that.

That little SOB is up to his neck in the conspiracy: he wrote the letter recommending Comey be fired, and then turns around and puts together this little “Get Trump” gang?

He’s the one who mandates Mueller’s scope in the absence of Sessions. So it’s on him to stick to the policy. If Mueller is going where he wants - revenge for his buddy Comey, or as part of some conspiracy - then Rosenstein is duty bound to stop it.

He’s the one that started the party.

Refuse irrelevant Mueller subpoenas. Which are probably all of them.
For some real fun, investigate everything Obama from his high school days.

Muller will cause President Trump to be impeached. President Trump is blind to think not. Muller can be eliminated by Sessions to eliminate the investigation. It must be done now, or say goodbye to President Trump.

1000%...because Sessions recused himself from any Russia investigation doesn’t mean he’s recused himself from investigating any crimes (such as leaks coming from Mueller’s office) or investigating potential conflicts of interest from Mueller or Rosenstien...

Trump will fire him, I’m fairly certain of that. Trump has no patience for these government types that don’t actually do the job right.

Sessions is a problem in various ways. He is not doing his job. Trump should light a fire under him or FIRE HIM!!! Trump needs a DOJ that will go after the leftist criminals and SUPPORT the administrations efforts.

“It’s time to close down this witch hunt.”
____________________________________________

I agree, but FBI director-nominee Christopher Wray was asked during his Senate confirmation hearings if he thought this investigation was a witch hunt. Wray answered “No.”

I don’t trust ANY of these FBI morons....their “special” agents or their directors, past, present or future.

President Trump should fire a shot across Hitlery’s and 0bama’s bow. Stop this madness now, or we’ll conduct real investigations.

DJT always has a plan. Does anyone think that this is anything other than a coup? Well..... do you also think that DJT gave Sessions an upfront phone call PRIOR to this NYT interview.

Sessions also has done some other goofy things..... the Bureau of Land Mgt. Trial / is he siding with the prosecutors? Also that taking of personal property without trial. Rand Paul talking about that.

He’s a straight shooter / Sessions.... why isn’t he taking CONTROL of this mess. Can’t he UN-RECUSE himself? Not possible? Just DO IT.

You are all correct. Podesta is a scumbucket / 75,000 shares now in his daughter’s name. Uranium and the Arkansides just keep rolling on and on for decades. Do you think there might be threats out to Sessions grandkids (does he have any), cute little dog you got there and so forth.

This must stop.
Arghhhhhhhh...

Nope.

The enemy intends to destroy Trump, his businesses, and his family. Frankly, I think it intends to kill them all, as a lesson to anyone who attempts to come to power against the NWO.

For your consideration: Sessions fires both Mueller and Rosenstein then submits his resignation to Trump.

Add on withdrawing Wray’s nomination and I’m sold...
