President of Judicial Watch, Tom Fitton is one of the loudest voices calling for the end of the Mueller probe. He says the probe is out of control, unsupervised and unconstitutional.
In a recent interview with The Daily Signal, Fitton said the Mueller probe is “a political effort to jail the president and his family because people don’t like him.” Fitton is absolutely correct. The Democrats will not stop until Trump, his family members and people in his administration are put in jail.
Fitton also said, “Sessions should un-recuse himself and get rid of Mueller.”
Fired FBI Director, Comey admitted to leaking memos to the press to prompt a special counsel, so why is this investigation still going? Mueller has to go!
As TGP previously reported, The Washington Post claimed that President Trump’s legal team are exploring ways to “scale back” Mueller’s investigation. This is great news, considering many believe Mueller is not an independent arbiter of the investigation and is abusing his power by investigating trivial business transactions.
Not only is Trump asking his advisers about his power to pardon family members and even himself in connection with the probe, The New York Times is reporting that President Trump is also going on the offensive. FINALLY!
Trump’s aides are seeking leverage as they investigate Mueller’s investigators.
The Mueller probe is an out of control investigation full of Democrat activists. TGP also reported, Special Counsel Robert Mueller has announced 15 attorneys who will look into Trump-Russia collusion in the 2016 election.

But the Russian witch hunt will never end until heads roll.
Here is a look at the 15 attorneys who will investigate Trump.
NPR recently listed 13 of the attorneys Mueller has hired – The Gateway Pundit researched the attorneys earlier today:
- Rush Atkinson, an attorney on detail from the Criminal Division’s Fraud Section at the Department of Justice
— Donated $200 to Clinton in 2016- Peter Carr – DOJ spokesman under Barack Obama.
- Andrew Goldstein, a public corruption prosecutor on detail from the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Southern District of New York
— Worked under Trump-basher Preet Bharara in the liberal New York southern district.- Adam Jed, an appellate attorney on detail from DOJ’s Civil Division.
— Defended Obamacare at the DOJ.- Rober Mueller – Special Counsel Team leader.— Best friend to fired leaker James Comey.
- Lisa Page, an attorney on detail from the FBI’s Office of the General Counsel and a former trial attorney with the Criminal Division’s Organized Crime and Gang Section
— Investigated Ukrainian oligarch Dmitry Firtash, a one-time business partner of former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort, at the DOJ.- Elizabeth Prelogar, an appellate attorney on detail from the Office of the Solicitor General.
–Fluent in Russian; former law clerk to Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Elena Kagan.- James Quarles, a former partner at WilmerHale and a former assistant special prosecutor for the Watergate Special Prosecution Force.
–Former assistant special prosecutor on the Watergate Special Prosecution Force.- Jeannie Rhee, a former partner at WilmerHale who has served in the Office of Legal Counsel at DOJ and as an assistant U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia.
— Rhee is a Clinton Foundation Lawyer and former Deputy Assistant Attorney General in the Office of Legal Counsel under Barack Obama.- Brandon Van Grack, an attorney on detail from the Justice Department’s National Security Division.
— Led a grand jury inquiry in Northern Virginia scrutinizing former Trump associate Michael Flynn’s foreign lobbying.- Andrew Weissmann, who is on detail from the Criminal Division’s Fraud Section and who has served as general counsel at the FBI and as an assistant U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of New York.
— Weissmann donated $2,300 to the Obama Victory Fund in 2008, $2,000 to the DNC in 2006 and at least $2,300 to the Clinton campaign in 2007.- Aaron Zebley, a former partner at WilmerHale who has previously served with Mueller at the FBI and has served as an assistant U.S. attorney in the Eastern District of Virginia.
— Worked with Robert Mueller at the WilmerHale firm.These other Mueller attorneys have less conspicuous political leanings:
- Aaron Zelinsky, an attorney on detail from the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the District of Maryland.
— Worked under Assistant AG Rod Rosenstein in Maryland.- Zainab Ahmad, a top national security prosecutor on detail from U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Eastern District of New York.
- Michael Dreeben, an appellate attorney on detail from the Office of the Solicitor General, described by former colleagues as one of the brightest criminal law experts of the past two generations.
Certainly president Trump should terminate the lunch mob, since there’s never been any significant evidence of any serious wrongdoing to begin with
Rosenstein went against DOJ rules by appointing a special counsel to investigate Trump with no basis of a crime.
We could be taking bets when Trump shuts down Mueller.
They put Trump in jail, they’ll end up taking an early extended dirt nap. I’d think twice if I were one of them.
Jeez talk about a political hit squad. Thanks Jeff.
Firing Mueller might just be the excuse Ryan wants to institute Impeachment proceedings. The act itself, regardless of lack of evidence of anything to base a special prosecutor on should be sufficient. If it is to happen, I say bring it on. If Trump is to succeed in MAGA then he will make a decisive move to break the Republican Congress and move on. Nothing can be done in the major areas of Medicine and Tax reform wihile either the Republicans or their parent organization the Democrats control Congress and while George Soros and the Chamber of Commerce determine all in Congress..
My thoughts exactly.
Fire Sessions and Mueller today !!!
Beyond that it's an effort to intimidate any future patriots to keep out of the White House, or else be destroyed.
Supposing President Trump instructed Sessions to begin an investigation with only republican investigators and the target was Mueller? Same broad mandate, same unlimited resources, same open-ended time frame. Target the man, then look for the crime(s).
What kind of reaction would we see?
Trump should wait for the August recess, then fire Sessions and appoint a Pit Bull. Recess appoints are for a year, during that year you clean house.
“Firing Mueller might just be the excuse Ryan wants to institute Impeachment proceedings.”
If Ryan did that there wouldn’t be a Safe Space on Earth for him to hide.
Time to take a ‘non-anonymous’ survey of every GOP officer at all levels “Where do you stand on this issue” and don’t ask - “which issue?”
That’s what the Media wants us to think. I would not listen to them. They are the Republic’s enemy and nothing but modern day Tokyo Rose sell out rats.
What are they going to impeach President Trump for? It’s a perfectly Constitutional and legal move for President Trump to fire Mueller. There is no evidence as The Republican Party Majority in the House will impeach the President too. Even if rats like Ryan dream of it.
Moreover, you still have a trial in the Senate to physically remove the President from the office. What would there be a trial in the U.S. Senate for? If no law was broken, then what is a trial about?
To keep Muller is only being pushed by the media and the #NeverTrumpers Establishment Republicans and Democrats have been saying this nonsense.
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.
The FIRST head that should roll is Rosenstein. He appointed Mueller.
I’m wondering if Jeff has until close of business to fire RM or he himself goes.
Trump could sue the government and request a court disband the special counsel. That would force the government to put up the evidence that satisfies the part of 28 CFR 600.1 - Grounds for appointing a Special Counsel, that requires a finding that "criminal investigation of a person or matter is warranted." This threshold is well known in criminal law, as "reasonable suspicion." It also forces the government to specify the criminal statutes potentially being violated.
Get this thing out of the dark, and into the open. That is the whole point of Special Counsel anyway, to mollify the public. Working in secret is counterproductive of the objective.
Secret code name: Operation Romanov
Trump must be sorry he threw his hat in the ring. Day in & day out they persecute him & his family. They’re relentless. I don’t know how he stands it. Praying for all the Trumps to stay strong.
Huh, Looks like the U.S. of A. has become THE Banana Republic. After an election that followed our Constitution, now a group of losers want to get rid of our elected President. What happened to “elections have consequences”? What happened to “If you don’t like someone vote ‘em out”. Haven’t the people spoken? I would shake my head when other Banana Republics would oust their elected leader. Never thought it would happen here. We need prayers.
