Mueller faces new complications in final stretch, as targets balk and Trump turns up heat

Special Counsel Robert Mueller and his team are facing new complications in the final stretch of their investigation into Russian meddling and potential collusion with Trump campaign associates during the 2016 presidential election, as targets allegedly breach agreements and balk at plea deals.

On Monday, the Mueller team claimed that former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort violated his plea deal by lying to the FBI and Mueller’s office on a “variety of subject matters,” amid reports the cooperation agreement was not panning out how prosecutors had hoped. Conservative author Jerome Corsi also plans to reject a potential deal with Mueller involving a perjury plea. Meanwhile, former Trump campaign foreign policy adviser George Papadopoulos reported to prison to begin a 14-day sentence -- but has been extremely critical of the probe on Twitter and is likely to be a thorn in the side of investigators for months to come.

Looks like our very own, home grown, Lavrenty Beria wannabe, the Mueller scum, is having some real trouble forcing his victims to commit perjury. Hang in there, guys.

This is a Communist style coup not an investigation. Say what the TYRANT wants or suffer the consequences.

- -

Translation. Manafort refuses to attest to witnessing crimes that never occurred.

Where the heck is Whitaker? Don’t tell me he has come down with Sessions sleeping sickness. If this is all Whitaker is good for Trump should have let Jeff continue his napping at DOJ.

Maybe he can be the December 23, 1953 version of Lavrenty Beria . . .

There is an 800 pound gorilla in the room: the un-released FISA documents.

My bet is they’re DJT’s Ace in the hole. They could show the entire investigation is bovine scat.

You won't see that statement in the LSM.

SCORE!! That’s the day Beria was executed!! It would be true justice if the same could happen to Mueller. See:

Dont forget that Mueller is under investigation as well - though for a REAL crime.

He who lives by kangaroo courts should not be surprised if he eventually gets hoisted on his own petard.

Good example - I was comparing Mueller to Reno who made her name by railroading a lot of innocent men for being falsely charged with being abusive.

Mueller is under a criminal investigation in Tennessee for this type of behavior. He wants people to lie to support his illegal investigation

Hint: The good guys are getting ready to go in for the kill on this SOB. He deserves everything that is coming to him.

The biggest development in this disgusting episode could be the refusal by Jerome Corsi to take a plea deal. Now, Mueller is either forced to drop his pursuit of Corsi, or give him all he wants about the investigation during discovery.

Corsi is an angry fighter and he will demand all interview documents, who has been interviewed, who worked on what, who got paid or made deal and much more. I doubt if Mueller would ever divulge the inner workings of his Hillary support team. This is the same tactic Obama's pal Bill Ayers used to force the government to drop his case.

There's a lesson here for anyone in Mueller's sights.

Eventually they'll force you to turn on your employer, coworkers, friends, for real or imagined "crimes". They'll use your words to destroy more lives, in an ever-widening web of destruction.

And in the end, they'll come back and get you, too. Immunity? Heh.

Corsi has it right.

It’s no where near the final stretch. Mueller likes his paycheck and power too much to finish.
