Mueller Tells Judge ... “Investigative Scope Was Detailed in Super-Secret Verbal Instructions…”

May the judge protect America from the likes of these liberal fascists!

Secret instructions from who? The criminal Hillary Clinton?

These ba$tards are nothing but racketeers, a government Cosa Nostra with super secret instructions issued from a Don or Consiglieri?

Use the RICO statute to indict the lot of them and bring this crime syndicate to justice.If something is not done soon the People will simple dispatch them one by one.Keep the peace and indict them!

§ 600.4 Jurisdiction.

(a)Original jurisdiction. The jurisdiction of a Special Counsel shall be established by the Attorney General. The Special Counsel will be provided with a specific factual statement of the matter to be investigated. The jurisdiction of a Special Counsel shall also include the authority to investigate and prosecute federal crimes committed in the course of, and with intent to interfere with, the Special Counsel’s investigation, such as perjury, obstruction of justice, destruction of evidence, and intimidation of witnesses; and to conduct appeals arising out of the matter being investigated and/or prosecuted.

(b)Additional jurisdiction. If in the course of his or her investigation the Special Counsel concludes that additional jurisdiction beyond that specified in his or her original jurisdiction is necessary in order to fully investigate and resolve the matters assigned, or to investigate new matters that come to light in the course of his or her investigation, he or she shall consult with the Attorney General, who will determine whether to include the additional matters within the Special Counsel’s jurisdiction or assign them elsewhere.

(c)Civil and administrative jurisdiction. If in the course of his or her investigation the Special Counsel determines that administrative remedies, civil sanctions or other governmental action outside the criminal justice system might be appropriate, he or she shall consult with the Attorney General with respect to the appropriate component to take any necessary action. A Special Counsel shall not have civil or administrative authority unless specifically granted such jurisdiction by the Attorney General.

I repeat:

The Special Counsel will be provided with a specific factual statement of the matter to be investigated.

Nothing says banana republic like an investigation operating using secret instructions which were never written down.

They can claim ANYTHING when they use the word “secret”.. and this judge had better not buy this lie from this team of criminals.. doing anything they can to take our vote and insert theirs.. thus declare another winner on Nov 2016. If that could stand as legal, we are in the deepest swamp there is, and time for a revolt!

I can’t find the words to describe what I think of sessions to allow all this on all of us... he’s a weak piece of congress who can’t get away from what they do every day.. which is to swindle the people and reap fortunes for themselves.. what a fool he was.

He shall never be forgiven for what he could have done to save us all, and did not do it. To be appointed meant he promised to (with his hands on the Bible) defend and protect the constitution and the people there in. He lost all credibility... worthless to the core!
His absence has left the country in a state where there is no one to stop this madness... he took the position and sewed up all responsibility in a paper bag and buried it.

In before the Deep State crew shows up!

Well, the verbal instruction must be true since Sessions thinks so highly of Rosenstein.

Trust Sessions.

Mueller needs to come into the court from the front door and leave by the side door in shackles accompanied by bailiffs. I hope this judge gives him a lesson he will long remember.

Trump needs to stop whining on Twitter and elsewhere about Witch Hunts!

If he wants Mueller to go away all he needs to do is FIRE ROSENSTEIN!! If Sessions quits because of it so be it! Trump is getting very poor advice in NOT FIRING ROSENSTEIN! Trump has more than enough legal justification to FIRE ROSENSTEIN!!

Lying Bullshit. These guys belong behind bars...VERY SOON. This so-called “investigation” is clearly out of control and adopting NAZI qualities.

Some of the comments after this article are just hilarious. Many are seeing through this sham of an investigation, except maybe someone like Trey Gowdy and his group. I would love to see this judge bring in Mueller and Rosenstein and put them in separate rooms and interrogate them each about what they thought Mueller’s scope of investigation would be. Bet the stories won’t match.

Is this like Dean Wormer’s “double secret probation” ?

It is time for everyone to lay their cards on the table.

Mueller needs to lay out his evidence on everybody he is “investigating”. If he’s got a pair of deuces or better, then let’s see it.

They might not have as much time as they think.

Nunes just said on Fox and Friends that he will be pushing to hold AG Session in contempt of Congress for the continuing stonewalling of the FISA Court abuses that lead to the wiretapping of Carter Page.

THAT rock gets turned over and it going to give President Trump a green light to fire Session and appoint someone who will put an end to this corrupt clown show at DOJ.
