DOJ releases Mueller's marching orders
Politico ^ | 5/06/20 | Daniel Lippman, Kyle Cheney

Posted on 05/06/2020 5:26:30 PM PDT by Libloather

The Department of Justice has released a less redacted copy of a memo laying out the scope of former special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation to Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) after the Judiciary Committee chairman requested it.

The memo, “The Scope of Investigation and Definition of Authority,” was sent on Aug. 2, 2017, to Mueller by Rod Rosenstein, the deputy attorney general at the time.

The unredacted bullet points include four names, beginning with former Trump campaign foreign policy adviser Carter Page. It tasks Mueller with determining whether Page committed a crime by “colluding with Russian government officials” as they interfered in the 2016 election.

Mueller also was tasked with investigating whether former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort likewise colluded with the Russian government, whether he committed crimes related to his work in Ukraine, and whether he committed a crime by taking loans from a bank CEO who was pursuing a job in the Trump administration.

The memo makes the same collusion allegation regarding former Trump campaign volunteer George Papadopolous, and also asks Mueller to look into whether he was an unregistered agent of the government of Israel.

The evidence was released...the 2 1/2 year Muller investigation was an unwarranted Witch Hunt. Predication for any of the attacks on the President were ALL LIES. They all knew it BEFORE Muller was brought in. This was SEDITION. Every leading Democrat knew it was all a lie and an attempt to disenfranchise the voters who elected Donald J Trump as President. This is more than sour grapes and being a sore loser. This was an Attack on America and the Constitution they took a Vow to defend from a Domestic enemy of America. EVERY DEMOCRAT WHO SPOKE AGAINST DONALD TRUMP AND ACCUSED HIM OF COLLUSION WITH RUSSIA OR OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE LIED TO YOU AND WERE INVOLVED WITH THE ATTEMPT TO OVERTHROW THE UNITED STATES AS WELL AS IT’S ELECTED PRESIDENT. THIS INCLUDES OBAMA AND BIDEN, MADDOW AND LEMON, HAYES AND CUOMO, BLITZER AND NICHOLE WALLACE, JEFF ZUCKER AND ANDREW LUCK...THE EDITORIAL STAFF AT TWITTER, GOOGLE AND FACEBOOK. WAPO AND THE FAILING NEW YORK TIMES. NANCY PELOSI, CHARLES SCHUMER, NADLER AND SCHIFF. ALL SEDITIONIST AND ENEMIES OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. IF YOU HAVE NOT HEARD ABOUT THIS YET, IT IS CALLED CENSORSHIP, A TYPICAL TACTIC OF TOTALITARIAN, MARXIST PURVEYORS OF CONTROL. IT THIS DISAPPEARS FROM FACEBOOK, THAT WILL BE PROOF ENOUGH OF THEIR CENSORSHIP TO HIDE THE TRUTH FROM THE CITIZENS.
