That is what they were asking Caputo about. He said that Mueller know more about what he did in 2016 than he did.

Did anyone happen to catch Caputo’s interview, on Tucker Carlson’s show, tonight?

He said he’s had to start a GoFundMe account just to fight the law suits brought on by leftists.

He said this is how they’re intimidating good folks/Trump team/supporters, etc....by going after them with lawsuits, to bankrupt them.

If I can find a link to his interview, I’ll post.

Unfreakingbelievable.

I’m surprised the guy would talk to CNN.

“Mueller looks like he is in bad place.”

One of his star witnesses is the liar Comey.

Here’s a link to another thread, about Caputo and the Carlson interview....

The link to interview....

h/t other thread posters.

This is unreal what is happening. Caputo warns not to work for any Republican....because the Dims will come after you with lawsuits...while Repubs sit gazing at their navels (my interpretation) and NOT calling this out.

Why didn’t Caputo secretly record it and put it up on YouTube? This is what needs to start happening. Bug phones, offices, etc, and catch Mueller’s team of Democrats in lawbreaking and legal terrorism...and put it on YouTube, Breitbart, FoxNews, etc!

Actually what the investigators were focused on was trying to find something Caputo said that was inconsistent with a statement from someone else or with a communication or other record they have.

The “collusion” is just the pretextual background.

For example, they could be investigating the Trump team to establish what each of them were doing during the Super Bowl — where they watched it, what they remembered about it, what they saw other Trump team members doing during the Super Bowl.

It would be the same process: Trapping them in questions and carefully comparing their answers to those of others and to other evidence to try to catch someone in something they think they can prove as a false statement.

They want scalps, the greater the number on whatever crime they can get, is how they keep score.

That’s the difference between the parties. Democrats bankrupt those who tell the truth about their misdeeds. Democrats make up phony crimes about Republicans and bankrupt those who defend themselves with the truth.

The part of the interview that struck me most was Caputo saying that Muellar/the Left will financially destroy anyone connected with Trump: family, friends, and associates. It's going to be that way for Republicans from now on.

Please consider giving to Caputo's "Go Fund Me" page to help with his legal expenses.

P/B nailed it..... "insider Caputo said Mueller know more about what he did in Trump's 2016 campaign than he did."

This is actually a very important investigatory point......somebody is cluing Mueller in. He didnt think up all this stuff by himself.

ASAP, we need to find out who Mueller is talking to. Trump should subpoena Mueller's communications apparat.

Same here - Mueller knows there is no “Russia” issue and wants to set a trap - but he ain’t much of a hunter and he over-salts the field....

I CANT BELIEVE THIS CAME FROM THE WASH/POST. Could be they are as sick of Mueller as we are.

Some legal experts believe that two previous Justice Department opinions prohibit federal prosecutors.....
....including Mueller.....from charging a president with a crime.

Instead, the Constitution relies on Congress’ power to impeach for potentially criminal behavior.

Trump’s lawyers could argue that he cannot be forced to testify under subpoena........

.......unless his testimony is necessary to indict someone else.
