President Donald Trump has repeatedly hurled insults at the FBI agents working on special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into the 2016 campaign. Rudy Giuliani, a former U.S. attorney who’s now Trump’s lawyer, has attacked them as “stormtroopers.”
The vitriol is unsurprising. The agents are powering an investigation that has shadowed Trump’s entire presidency — and they are mostly unknown to the public, making them easy targets. They are a mix of bureau veterans and relative newcomers handpicked by Mueller and his prosecutors to handle the highest-profile and most sensitive federal investigation in a generation.
To assemble this portrait of Mueller’s FBI team, POLITICO scoured court records, news accounts and press releases and conducted more than two dozen interviews with defense lawyers and witnesses as well as with current and former FBI agents.

I did not post the entire article believing Politico to be an excerpt only publication. This is not a typical read for me but I found this article quite extensive and factual as it pertains to the bio of mueller’s team. It also provides a window into the mentality of the resistance, those seeking to overthrow our government.
At least they’re making an attempt to do real journalism...now that whole thing about exactly how Trump stole the election...hmmm! Crickets!! Rush is correct! They really believe it! Very sad!
A political cover-up article.
I did not see anything in it about the preponderance of Democrat partisans in the Prosecution.
Andrew Weissman, particularly, has been shown to be a corrupt hack.
This article attempts to paint the Trump persecution as neutral.
.
Rosenstein runs every single decision by Mueller, even non-Russia related strategy.
Sessions is AWOL.
This is per DeSantis and what witnesses have told them. He was in the Radio in DC today.
Rosenstein = saboteur

What about the lawyer on Bobby’s team who took a hammer to Hillary’s Blackberries? I’m sure he’s not biased.
They left out our favorite love birds Lisa and Peter as well as Weissman
Bobby’s crew is as corrupt as they come
Of course they speak out of a Communist mouth. The factual details about personalities, careers, and tactics are very revealing.
Oh this is so cute
Leftists heaping adulation on FBI grunts
Kinda the opposite of their usual rap, huh?
“most sensitive investigation in a generation”
Um, has it been a generation since Billy Jeff wuz caught diddling the secretary?
Feels like yesterday.
And since the “crime” here has never been either a) found or b) defined, what precisely are they “investigating” that’s so sensitive? The fact that Hillary! got exposed as serial lawbreaker?
The instigators of this entire deception are on staff, continuing their nefarious efforts. This is keeping all of the enemies of the republic in one place.
“Rosenstein runs every single decision by Mueller, even non-Russia related strategy.”
“This is per DeSantis and what witnesses have told them. He was in the Radio in DC today.”
DeSantis also said that Rosenstein is “like Mueller’s little poodle”.
Working side-by-side with prosecutors, agents escort witnesses into Mueller’s secure Washington headquarters to be interrogated. “The two FBI agents were like Joe Friday, just the facts,” said another recent Mueller witness, who said an agent picked him up at a hotel a couple of blocks from Mueller’s office and whisked him in through a garage.
FBI agents do some of the witness interviews themselves, without Mueller’s prosecutors even in the room. Other sessions include both the special counsel’s team and the FBI, witnesses and their lawyers told POLITICO. The agents themselves are then ready to testify if someone is charged with lying to the FBI, as former national security adviser Michael Flynn, Trump campaign foreign policy adviser George Papadopoulos and Trump campaign official Rick Gates have already have admitted to.
Having FBI agents on hand obviates the need for any prosecutor to testify about what was said, but in the current probe also serves a second purpose: providing someone who could testify even if Mueller’s whole prosecution team were removed and replaced.
Said one former federal prosecutor, who asked not to be named: “If anything happens to the special counsel, the bureau will still be there.”
Said one former federal prosecutor, who asked not to be named: “If anything happens to the special counsel, the bureau will still be there.”.....
hmmm famous last words?
I wonder which members of the team are performing the forensics on the only piece of physical evidence. Oh, wait...they haven’t even seen the “hacked” DNC server.
“Rosenstein = saboteur”
Rosenstein’s wife = DemoncRat KLINTOON worshiper !
He was bashing Mueller's hired Democrats on his team! Stupid biased article!
AEVERY lawyer on Mueller’s assasination team is a democrat employee, democrat party lawyer, or democrat party donor.
And the “hand-picked” FBI (like Strozk and his lover) team is just as corrupt. But, of course, this report does NOT mention those prejudices ....
For their rabid loyalty to Hitlery.
