Former Trump lawyer slams Mueller probe, maintains president will be cleared.
ABC News ^ | February 12, 2019 | Kyra Phillips

Posted on 02/12/2019 8:42:34 AM PST by BurgessKoch

The veteran criminal defense attorney who headed President Donald Trump's legal team during a crucial stretch of the special counsel investigation believes the entire affair will end in silence from special counsel Robert Mueller, and called the massive two-year probe into Russian interference in the 2016 campaign “a terrible waste of time.” “I don't think there'll be a report,” John Dowd told ABC News in a wide-ranging interview for the premiere episode of "The Investigation," a new podcast focused on the probe led by special counsel Robert Mueller. “I will be shocked if anything regarding the president is made public, other than ‘We're done.’” ...

How can they get away investigating Trump as a way to divert attention from Hillary Clinton, Comey and Obama? This Trump investigation stinks!

With the money Bobby and his mob of Clintoonista lawyers spent on this farce, THEY BETTER ISSUE A “REPORT” or the American people need to file a class action lawsuit against these maggots.

The media has been led by the Dems. like a bunch of sheep. Most of them are infested with hate, as the prime motivator for their survival on T.V.

The media has wasted so much time reporting b.s. The people who still believe anything they say, are so easily brainwashed by their clever commercials to make money.

So one scenario always was Mueller will not actually set up Trump for others to indict him but will have a secret,sealed report and say “Oooo boy. If you could only read what is in there against Trump you’d get him out of office. I’m tellin’ ya it’s hot stuff. But I can’t say anything specific. Just really crooked stuff.”

This is where Mr. Dowd is dead wrong. There will be a report. There will be a lengthy report outlining Trump surrogate's efforts to thwart his (Mueller's) investigation at every turn. The report will suggest that Mueller would have found his collusion were it not for the stonewalling, deception, and outright lying by these Trump surrogates. The report will lament the missed opportunity to personally interview Trump, and suggest that such an omission further hampered a thorough and complete investigation.

In short, there will be a 1,000 page report with enough quotable lines, designed specifically for the MSM to echo in their breathless and fawning coverage of the report release, that it will attempt to be the dominate subject of the 2020 elections.

'Will issue no report,' indeed.

Just closing up shop without a report could be the Social Democrats’ best ploy. It would elicit immediate and perhaps pre-orchestrated howls of COVERUP! and bring out the already briefed and paid Antifas and Pussyhats and all the rest of the SD militia into the streets. Proud Boys will have a lot of protection to do.

Only one way Trump will be cleared and that is to kill the Special Counsel and take the heat which is not much different than what is happening now. The only thing else is if the Senate investigates Mueller and expose this corrupt rat,.

Yeah but this whole investigation existed for one reason only: To overthrow the Trump administration, to overthrow the government the people voted for. That's the definition of sedition which is a 20 year jail sentence. There was ZERO probable cause to investigate him, no one single solitary shred of evidence or anything to even suggest a suspicion of Trump being involved with the Russians. This was a hoax started by the multiple felon who is above the law Hillary Clinton which was used solely to overthrow the peoples government and ALL of those involved should be immediately arrested and tried for sedition but sadly it will never happen because nobody in the Republican party has the balls to enforce the law.

18 U.S. Code § 2384. Seditious conspiracy

If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.

[2017] Mueller’s Role in Delivering Uranium to Russians Raises Questions
New American ^ | August 2, 2017 | Steve Byas

Posted on 1/27/2019, 3:22:46 PM by ETL

While the revelation of a secret meeting involving Robert Mueller in the delivery of uranium to the Russians, by itself, does not prove anything of a criminal or unethical nature, it does raise questions that merit an investigation.

After all, when Mueller was FBI director under the Obama administration, he was trusted enough by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to carry out this mission. If it was a diplomatic mission, why was the FBI director involved?

And if it was a law enforcement mission, why was Clinton involved?

Hillary Clinton & Robert Mueller Linked in Russian Uranium Exchange

American Liberty PAC ^ | Jun 20, 2017 | Kirk

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton facilitated a uranium exchange with Russian law enforcement by former FBI Director (and current chief Deep State inquisitor) Robert Mueller.

The exchange was exposed via a recent Wikileaks publication of a secret cable between Hillary’s State Department and the Russian embassy.

Hillary sent Mueller to Moscow with orders to turn over a 10 gram sample of highly enriched uranium (HEU) which was obtained during a shadowy 2006 nuclear “sting” operation conducted in the Georgian Republic.

The ostensible reason for the transfer was to engender further trust between Russian and American law enforcement in the area of nuclear materials and to learn more about how to trace nuclear materials.

But when it comes to Hillary and Russian uranium interests, the shady Uranium One deal cannot pass unnoted.

There still has been no real investigation into how Hillary gave permission for a Russian company to acquire a quarter of the North American uranium reserves after Russian interests poured hundreds of millions into the Clinton Foundation and gave Bill Clinton six figure speaking fees.

At the very least, this exchange raises serious questions about the ability of Robert Mueller to do his job as special prosecutor on the Russian collusion charges since he already has connections to major figures in Russian law enforcement.

Special Counsel Mueller Literally Handed Uranium to the Russians!

IWB ^ | Mark Angelides

We all know that the Russian Collusion investigation is nothing but a game to try and distract the population from actually caring about the day to day running of the country, but the charade has gone too far and some serious questions need to be asked; most especially of Special Counsel Robert Mueller.

WikiLeaks has put out a document that details then FBI Director Mueller’s itinerary on his visit to Russia to deliver 10 grams of Enriched Uranium.

One more time for those who missed it…Mueller hand delivered Highly Enriched Uranium to the Russian government!

Gohmert: Mueller “Covering” Involvement In Clinton-Uranium Deal While Trying To Have A “Coup” Against Trump

Posted By Ian Schwartz
June 9, 2018

Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) said Saturday special counsel Robert Mueller is trying to cover up his involvement with the Uranium One deal that benefited the Clintons while “trying to have a coup against the president.”

REP. LOUIE GOHMERT (R-TX): Robert Mueller has done more damage during his 12 years as FBI director than any other — probably all directors put together...

He has wasted money right and left. Amazingly, he’s hired people like [Andrew] Weissmann that worked with him and [Rod] Rosenstein in investigating the Russian illegal efforts to obtain our uranium which they quashed information in order to allow the sale to go through so that Hillary could get the $145 million for her foundation.

So it is really outrageous. He’s covering for himself at the same time he’s trying to have a coup against the president.

“I don't think there'll be a report,” John Dowd told ABC News

There will be a report.

It will basically say, 'although we can't find any proof of political crimes or Trump collusion with Russia, we couldn't find anything to disprove anything either. Considering all the rumors and innuendoes it's likely something criminal happened but we can't prove anything'.

This will give the media and Democrats the opportunity to say, every time they report on Trump, that the final report didn't clear Trump of any crime just that Mueller couldn't prove any crime.

Mueller should just resign without comment. There never was a case to legally investigate Trump. The charges were CREATED inside the FBI, CIA, and National Intel. The shame is that the FISA judges sat silent. Disbar them!
