Flashback: Mueller’s probe of POTUS Trump had risen to the level of a national security threat
The National Sentinel ^ | 3/24/19 | Jon Dougherty

Posted on 03/24/2019 6:57:07 AM PDT by SleeperCatcher

Now that special counsel Robert Mueller has turned in his report to the Justice Department, all of official Washington is waiting for details about what’s in it.

Did Mueller really find the goods on POTUS Donald Trump, his ‘corrupt criminal enterprise’ of a business, and those darned kids? Did he find enough evidence to indict POTUS but, knowing the current Justice Department rules prohibit indicting a sitting president, just couldn’t do it?

Or will the report simply be critical of the president’s persona, his demeanor, his unorthodox way, his boorishness, his ‘mental fitness to be president?’

Time will tell; Attorney General William Barr has vowed to make as much of the report public as DoJ rules permit. The president himself has supported making the report public, as have a number of Republicans.

But anything short of naming the president as a co-conspirator with Mother Russia to “steal the 2016 election” from Hillary Clinton will satisfy Democrats. For more than two years they have been accusing our president, sans evidence and, in many cases contrary to the existing evidence, that he committed a treasonous act to plot with a foreign power the takeover of the highest elected office in our country. It’s stuff that movies have been made about (“The Manchurian Candidate”), and there’s no evidence it happened.

Trump should have his attorneys release his side of the story.
Why should Mueller’s Report be the gospel? Also, Trump should release information of why the Mueller Report was required by his opposition?

The Mueller report is TOTALLY a prosecution document.

Then Barr should start arresting people that had a part in the coup attempt. It’s acceptable to have political differences. It is unacceptable to frame a political opponent because you didn’t like the outcome of an election. Those that did should be punished swiftly and severely.

“Trump should have his attorneys release his side of the story.”

They will. It is provided as a response to the report since the report comes from the prosecution side. The defense will publish their report alongside of the Mueller report so when it hits the public, both sides of the story will be present.

The rats want everything public now so Trump’s team cannot respond.

".... Or will the report simply be critical of the president’s persona, his demeanor, his unorthodox way, his boorishness, his ‘mental fitness to be president?’...."

According to Ken Starr, Mueller is not allowed to talk about those subjects of his investigation that weren't charged. Only those who he indicted.

If true, this would negate Mueller talking about Trump's personality and behavior.

Anybody else have a take on this claim from Starr?

No doubt the Dems. and the media are going to twist the truth about anything in this Mueller Report. They have been twisting the truth and even lying for such a long time, wasting everyone’s time with their non-sense 24/7 cable news propaganda.

Dems are saying the FBI rules say it can’t indict a sitting President and that’s why they want to see everything.

Presidents are indicted are they? I thought they are impeached. Impeachment is in the purview of congress.

I think a detailed investigation should be SOP for all Politicians

This entire so called investigation is trash. When one uses a fake report that is full of lies/not facts to base an investigation upon-the end result will not be just. We have seen how crooked, corrupt, and powerful the FBI leadership was. Add the DOJ plus one has to wonder how many more crooks are in the senior executive service of other Gov (swamp) agencies?

The Government Agencies are packed with liberal operatives.
The Media is packed with liberal operatives. Wonder if the Mueller Investigation Propaganda helped the Dems. regain Congress in some way?

Democrats don’t need to twist the truth when they can just invent it, which they do consistently.

That's why the Dems want to see everything.

They're looking for something to impeach the President...same as using report by Ken Starr to impeach Bubba.

True. Also we have so called citizens here from countries we
never had here before Kennedy’s Immigration Reform Act. Look at the number of folks from India who own convenience stores and motels. Add the Muslims here plus so many others who never did one damn thing to build this nation or fight to keep us free. LBJ’s Great Society started more socialism/handouts then anyone. Now we are being invaded by free loaders and the Dems DO NOTHING.

Thanks. That's probably what I had read. Seems like Ken Starr came out and said the same thing.

If you're not charged with a crime, the prosecutors can't bad-mouth you just because they investigated you.

If Mueller follows that DOJ policy that Rosenstein spelled out, there will be no disparaging details about what the SP team found on those who they investigated but did not find enough to indict.

The democRATS sound like they think Mueller's report is going to be like a tell-all book and cough up details about Trump and his family that they want to use to continue persecuting him with.
