Special counselor Robert Mueller added a top New York prosecutor to his team investigating Russian meddling in the 2016 election who also happened to be an official who worked for fired U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Andrew Goldstein of the Southern District of New York has been selected to join the probe, according to multiple reports late Friday.

This is becoming the biggest stinking pile of governmental crap in recent history.

What a joke. May as well add Justice Ginsberg to the list of Trump-hating investigators.

Well if so, it needs to be rescinded.

Why doesn’t Mueller add Hillary to the commission? She has a law degree.

Preet should recuse himself before even getting started. He has an ax to grind as a disgruntled former employee.
I suspect this will soon be brought up.
“What is Mueller doing to qualify lawyers for his little smear group? Asking “Do you really, really REALLY hate Donald Trump?” If the answer is not just yes, but ‘Hell, yes!’ they get hired.

If this is true, the guy was fired by Trump only to be rehired by Mueller? What CRAP! This nonsense with Mueller has got to stop.

Didn’t Bharara get slapped down for the one court case he personally prosecuted as a US Attorney?

What is the remit of this ‘team’. Are there ANY limitations on money? Personnel? Scope? Time? To whom does it report?

An organized Democrat coup.

This needs to be put to a stop immediately. It’s a rigged game of a false narrative.

Is this why some NY attorneys are so confident that what one has called, "the system," "will work" to rid America of Trump?

Obviously, that attorney is not speaking of the Founders' system of Constitutional government," but of some Progressive ideological notion of the man-contrived "system" of power to elites to decide.

If that attorney were speaking of the Founders' system of limited government power, then Democrats (Progressives) would accept the results of the election, participate in governance as the opposition Party, and debate their ideas in the manner prescribed by the Constitution by which they serve.

How can you ethically accept an appointment to investigate the man who fired you two months earlier?

This is now clearly an effort by the establishment to overturn the election.

They need to shut this down, fire Rosenstein, Mueller and the lot of them.

Congress can impeachment if they like, but they should no there will be no more Republican party if they don’t support our duly elected President and work with him to pass his agenda.

That is a choice with a message of defiance.

Trump should get rid of Mueller after this.

Trump fired the guy. Now Mueller hires a person with a grudge against Trump to investigate Trump. Sounds like he is hiring a firing squad more than he is a team of unbiased investigators.
If Mueller hires this clown, look for Trump to fire up the twitter under the hashtag Fake Investigation.
