Crackpot Crokin: Mueller is Going to Arrest Hillary Clinton
Patheos ^ | November 10, 2017 | Ed Brayton

Posted on 11/10/2017 12:28:03 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Liz Crokin, who is somehow managing to be more ridiculous than Alex Jones with her bizarre conspiracy theories, has a new column claiming that Trump and Mueller are working together. In fact, Trump put all of this in motion so that Mueller could indict Hillary Clinton and put her in jail, as he promised during the campaign.

Fast forward to May 16, President Trump is now in the White House and meets with Robert Mueller. CNN reported that Trump interviewed him as a potential replacement for fired FBI Director James Comey. As Trump would say, “wrong!” It’s not possible that Mueller could’ve been interviewing for the FBI director position because he already served in that capacity – under Presidents George W. Bush and briefly Barack Obama – and he exceeded the term limit allowed to work in that role. The term limit is ten years and Mueller served as FBI director for 12 years. Mueller got a special additional two-year extension from Obama that the Senate approved. The fake news totally got this wrong — to no one’s surprise.

So what was the meeting really about? I believe Trump was finalizing his decision to appoint Mueller as his special prosecutor to investigate Clinton. Don’t believe it? Keep reading.

The day after Mueller’s meeting with Trump, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein appointed Mueller to serve as special counsel for the United States Department of Justice…

Trump did not collude with Russia. The left and the media have carried that narrative based off of lies and a fake dossier. Trump allowed them to carry their false narrative because he knew he was innocent and that the investigation would eventually turn to the real parties who colluded with Russia. Enter the Clintons. What stands out in the affidavit Rosenstein signed included “matters that arose or may arise directly from the investigation” because they knew an investigation into Russian collusion would eventually lead to Clinton.

Trump is a man of his word and he’s making good on all of his campaign promises, so why wouldn’t he keep this one? The left and the media has been so blinded by their partisanship that they’ve failed to see that the greatest bait and switch in the history of the world is going down right before their very eyes.

And when that doesn’t happen — and it won’t because it’s utterly ridiculous — Crokin will not admit that she was wrong. She’ll move on to screaming about the next ludicrous prediction that won’t come true and her readers will forget all about all the previously failed predictions. Being a wingnut means never having to admit you’re wrong about anything. It’s like psychic with an endlessly credulous clientele — no matter how often they’re wrong, the clients keep paying for the next reading.

So who are the other targets?

They probably belong to completely unrelated cases, since these numbers being bandied about would be for the whole D.C. court, not just Mueller's submissions. In fact not one of them may even belong to Mueller. Last time, news broke via leaks to CNN before any of his indictments were unsealed and unsealed, to cause Trump the most damage in the press. Since that strategy worked so well for them last time, I see no reason why they wouldn't follow the same game plan the next time there are indictments actually forthcoming from Mueller.

“It would certainly enhance Mueller’s career if he could “get” some huge names like Podesta or Clinton, even if he was staunchly allied with them before.”

Mueller is 73 years old, and has assets worth between $4.2 and $15.2 million according to federal financial disclosure forms at the DOJ. He was earning $3.5 million per year when he gave up his partnership at Wilmer Hale to become the independent special counsel. Other sources indicate his net worth to be between $8 and $18 million.

From an age perspective most of Mueller’s “career” is behind him. He certainly has enough saved to live quite comfortably for his remaining years. In addition if he wants to work after stepping down as independent counsel he can certainly return to a lucrative law practice, write a book for a few million dollars, hit the corporate speaking tour, or join multiple corporate boards. He is more likely to be concerned about his historical legacy (how the history books will treat him) than he is about moving forward in his “career”.

If he brings down Trump (resignation or impeachment) he will secure a place in the history books for several decades. If he indicts and convicts Hillary Clinton he will be remembered potentially for a generation but ultimately will lose even footnote status as time progresses. Consider that 150 years after President Andrew Johnson was impeached, who remembers the names of the key players involved in that impeachment, other than a few academics who specialize in that period of history?

Given how quickly supporting actors in historical events fade from the public memory, if Mueller is at all worried about career or legacy, his is most likely concerned about how people will view him in what remains of his lifetime. Does he want to be admired and flattered by the progressive elites and media or does he want to be hero to the “deplorables” who hate the Clinton’s and admire Trump? Consider where he lives and who he socializes with. Likely there is the answer. At age 73, it is tough to be out making new friends.

This just makes no damn sense. So many people are getting this wrong and it is just spinning out of control.

How do you know ###MUELLER### is the one that filed the CASES ..and it is cases NOT INDICTMENTS

“Sealed dockets are insanely normal,” tweeted Brad Heath, an investigative reporter for USA Today. He said that they don’t necessarily equate to indictments. Sealed docket entries could also be search warrants that the Mueller team or other prosecutors filed.

Mueller will not be indicting anybody who has a “D” after their name.

Hillary is truly above the law. There’s no crime so heinous that she’ll ever be held to account for.

Just as an interesting aside, do you know what that nursery rhyme represented ?

It may be. Wouldn’t surprise me if some are his...but you can’t say as fact that all or any are his.

See what happened to Papadapolous.

Podesta could have been arrested and cooperating

A lobbyist who did some work for Eric trump (dont remember name) said he was approached by Manafort about the same time. Was not comfortable with the attempt to go around legalities.

One could guess that Podesta might not have been so wary..thus possible for him to get arrested.

Doesn’t matter. No sign of Papadapolous either.

You keep it sealed when someone is cooperating ..especially if wearing a wire, etc.

This doesn’t mean Podesta was or was not arrested. It just means he could have been arrested and you might not know about it.

Cronin said Hillary would go down because of a sex tape of she, and Huma and a child.

I am not kidding.

I guess we’ll see.
