Special Counsel Robert Mueller Leaking Like A Sieve, Conduct Disturbs Legal Experts
People's Pundit Daily ^ | Nov 5, 2017 | PPD Staff

Posted on 11/06/2017 8:18:43 AM PST by Golden Eagle

Legal experts are becoming increasingly concerned over the professional conduct of Special Counsel Robert Mueller and his team...

Last week, Paul Manafort and his former business associate and protégé Rick Gates were told to surrender to federal authorities, making them the first to be charged by Special Counsel Mueller and his team. The indictments, which were leaked by the special counsel to CNN the Friday before, were secured and unsealed in a manner that raises questions over whether the special counsel was trying to divert attention from several damning reports...

Only days before the indictment, it was revealed the campaign for Hillary Clinton and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) paid for the infamous debunked Steele dossier. The discredited opposition research not only appears to have been used by the FBI as justification to spy on Trump campaign associates, but also was the catalyst for accusations of collusion.

Reports also implicated the Justice Department (DOJ) and the FBI under Mr. Mueller in a scheme to coverup potential crimes resulting from the controversial Uranium One deal. the FBI uncovered a massive bribery, corruption and racketeering scheme before the Obama Administration approved a nuclear deal that put 20% of U.S. uranium resources under the control of Moscow.

The Trump DOJ cleared a confidential informant for the FBI, lifting an unprecedented non-disclosure agreement. He will now be allowed to testify before Congress about what he witnessed undercover surrounding Russia’s efforts to corner the global uranium market. The witness has long-wanted to tell the American people about his knowledge of the corruption, but was gagged by the Obama Administration.

Senator Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, called for another special counsel to investigate the controversial Obama-Clinton era deal, particularly given Mr. Mueller’s role in the cover up of the investigation...

It’s as if they are afraid Mueller is right.


Mueller is corrupt. Mueller is complicit in the uranium One deal with Hillary. A criminal should not be in charge of a criminal investigation. By all rights, he should recuse himself from the investigation. It is wrong for him to run the investigation.

Stating your opinion in a public forum is not taking a cheap shot. I have publicly and privately advised our freeper that he needs to ponder the likelihood that the Trump people are feeding him disinformation. And that its hurting his credibility. However if you are having butthurt over it well too bad.

You would have to live in a state of suspended disbelief to entertain the theory that Mueller is working with Trump to go after the Democrats.

"Senator Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, called for another special counsel to investigate the controversial Obama-Clinton era deal..."

House rep Gaetz (R-FL) asked Jeff Sessions to investigate the Uranium One scandal last week. Reportedly, Sessions flat refused, stood up from the table, and left without another word.

An article detailing that encounter was posted here a few days back.

Believe me I share your frustrations & concerns, however, the reality is no one knows what is going to happen. For all we know God directed Manafort to nominee Trump to open the door to the corruption that is rampant in our government at all levels. While I have a very hard time believing that Mueller is working for honesty (not deluded into thinking for Trump), that may indeed be the reality. We will have to see if we are correct in our belief of who & what Mueller is & is doing, or if they are correct. Either way, both sides are hoping for the same outcome, vindication for President Trump and conviction of those who truly are guilty of crimes against this nation, and that is the important link between the two.

That is why I cannot get too upset with these people, and all of us should start viewing them in the same light. After all we are not like the opposition that wants to keep free speech from being practiced in this country. If they are proven wrong then we can politely say, we told you so. If they are right, I hope they will do the same. 8>)

Either way, we will all have a smile on our face knowing that this corruption is finally seeing the light of day. That hopefully means major changes are going to occur for the betterment of this great nation.

God bless the USA.

A beautiful rendition of the Stars Spangled Banner

And now for a true Cajun story that took place in Gueydan, La. and sure to bring a smile to all that read it:

Time is like a river. You cannot touch the water twice, because the flow that has passed will never pass again. Enjoy every moment of life. As a Cajun Musician, I play many gigs. Recently I was asked by a funeral director to play at a graveside service for a homeless man. He had no family or friends, so the service was to be at a pauper's cemetery in the Cajun back country.

As I was not familiar with the backwoods, I got lost and, being a typical man, I didn't stop for directions.

I finally arrived an hour late and saw the funeral guy had evidently gone and the hearse was nowhere in sight. There were only the diggers and crew left and they were eating lunch. I felt badly and apologized to the men for being late.

I went to the side of the grave and looked down and the vault lid was already in place. I didn't know what else to do, so I started to play.

The workers put down their lunches and began to gather around. I played out my heart and soul for this man with no family and friends.

I played like I've never played before for this homeless man. And as I played "Amazing Grace", the workers began to weep. They wept, I wept, we all wept together. When I finished, I packed up my Accordion and started for my car. Though my head was hung low, my heart was full.

As I opened the door to my car, I heard one of the workers say, "I never seen anything like that before, and I've been putting in septic tanks for twenty years."

Apparently, I'm still lost....it's a man thing.

Perhaps the leaks are the warning shot across the bow that, so far, only Podesta has seen .... and resigned.

Podesta resigned because his company was going down the toilet because of all the bad publicity. I don't think Podesta is afraid of Mueller.

In fact Podesta blamed Fox news and not Mueller for his problems.

Leave them alone. They are only harming themselves. I don’t understand why FReepers are so scared of Mueller. It’s as if they are afraid Mueller is right.

You really don't get it do you?

The fear is that Mueller is covering for the Clintons, Obama, Comey, Rosenstein, himself...etc. about Uranium One, about the dossier...etc.

If that were true, then our very fine Attorney General Jeff Sessions would be all over this, now wouldn’t he?

(insert deep sarcastic laughter here.)

Look - there is nothing Trump can do about Mueller. Hell, he can’t even do anything about Sessions or Rosenstein.

So yeah. Mueller, the Clintons, Comey and others are complicit and corrupt. Nothing anyone can do about it.

It’s clear you mean well, but I don’t agree the cheering section for Mueller (which thankfully seems pretty confined to FR, twitter, and 4chan) isn’t hurting Trump. It’s dividing his base supporters at those locations, and preventing a unified defense. Some of them are literally making excuses for him when evidence or articles come out against Mueller, you see quite a bit of it on this very thread.

The whole fable is very likely a liberal psyop, that is working to perfection, since those repeating it never actually look up the claims they keep regurgitating as fact. I could give you countless examples, one of the latest was someone claiming Tony Podesta had been arrested, because he hadn’t tweeted in several days. When I went to look, he doesn’t even have a twitter account!

If you think it’s healthy for those types of posts to go unchallenged, I respectfully disagree. Because if we don’t push back against disinformation being posted here, especially disinformation that is damaging to our interests, and helpful to our political enemies, what is the purpose of this site anyway?

It may very well turn out that Donald J. Trump was a victim of some of these "Trump's people" you refer to (Manafort, for example).

This whole special counsel investigation is an 'effing distraction, as far as I'm concerned.

Donald Trump was the first political candidate I've ever financially supported in my life. I don't think I need to justify my credibility as far as my support of him is concerned.

And stop the hand-wringing about "twisting in the media wind." There isn't a single person in the last 50 years who has done more to discredit the media than Donald Trump has. I'm sure he doesn't give a damn about what these dopes say about him. Why do you?

One of the things that motivates me in my dispassionate objectivity here on FreeRepublic is posts like this that are flat-out misrepresentations of what was actually reported.

I'm giving you a homework assignment. LOL.

Go back and find the media report that you just cited, re-post it here on this thread, and highlight the few absolutely critical pieces of information that were left out of the narrative you posted above.

You're free to believe whatever you want, but that's what rep Gaetz reported. Get on the phone and call him a liar if you want.

No, it's not. Go back and read the report again.

Gaetz on Hannity right now asking for Mueller to step down due to his obvious conflicts of interest in investigating anything relating to Russia. “Absolutely impossible for anyone to trust him fairly investigating this.”

“I personally asked Jeff Sessions asked to appoint a new special counsel in front of the judiciary committee. He walked out,saying he was recused, and it was up to Rosenstein.”

On the radio right now.

As far as your “homework assignment” is concerned, here’s the source article, with an excerpt for extra credit:

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/11/02/rep-matt-gaetz-says-jeff-sessions-recused-uranium-one-deal/

“Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) told Breitbart News on Wednesday that he and other House Judiciary Committee Republicans had met with Sessions at the Justice Department on September 28 in advance of an upcoming committee hearing with Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein later this month.

Gaetz said that when he asked Sessions to appoint a special counsel to investigate the 2010 Uranium One deal and Fusion GPS, the attorney general stood up, said he could not discuss the matter because he had recused himself, and walked out of the room, leaving them with a group of Rosenstein staffers “who showed no interest.”

Hannity replied “I’m hearing reports that Sessions may not actually be recused.”

Gaetz “well he told me, Jim Jordan and the whole judiciary committee he was, so if he isn’t recused he needs to let us know as soon as possible.”

That whole Tony Podesta thing was the result of someone hacking and generating a false arrest warrant, at least from what I have read, and I may not be exactly correct on what was actually created, but it is something along those lines.

For the life of me though I cannot understand how you think this is hurting Trump. I have heard the things said about Mueller working for Trump, and it hasn't affected me in the slightest. If true fantastic, however, I still call for an end to his special counsel. Bottom line is that none of us can do much about it. You & I and those who believe as we do need to vocally keep calling for the ouster of Mueller, while simultaneously calling for a new special counsel to investigate Uranium One & the involvement of Mueller, Comey & Rosenstein with that transaction. It's the only thing we can really do. On the flip side they are powerless to prevent him from being removed if he is.

Letting their belief get under your skin solves nothing, & if what you say is true than you are enabling those who are lying about this to succeed in creating dissension within the ranks. That dissension accomplishes absolutely nothing. But engaging in it can cause other problems. Let them believe what they want, and keep fighting the fight. But not against them. Their argument is inconsequential.

After all that, apparently you're just another one who wants us to just roll over and take it, like the poster "bohica1" said yesterday, I kid you not. If you don't know what bohica means your should look it up LOL.
