Mueller navigates dangerous currents in probing Trump-Russia nexus

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Robert Mueller brought an enviable reputation as the architect of the modern FBI and a force behind major criminal prosecutions to his job as special counsel investigating Russia’s role in the 2016 U.S. election but has encountered a relentless campaign by President Donald Trump to discredit the probe. Mueller, a longtime Republican, received bipartisan praise when he was named as special counsel in May 2017 to take over the Russia investigation after Trump fired FBI Director James Comey, whose agency had led the probe. Trump and allies in the Republican Party and conservative media have sought to disparage Mueller, a 74-year-old former U.S. Marine Corps officer, and paint the entire Russia investigation as illegitimate and politically motivated.

Yeah, being the architect of the modern FBI is sure “enviable”.

This piece of grade-school level propaganda has overloaded my B.S. meter.

No because if Muller had any ethic, integrity or backbone he would of folded the tent on day 1 telling the Failed Media and their Democrat Fascist party master:

“We done. There is no crime here to be investigated”.

He is and has been a f**king crook and should have been in prison MANY years ago. He is a lying bastard and one of the biggest criminals in DC. He personifies the DC Swamp and should be their poster boy. His picture is next to POS in the dictionary.

Mueller forced all senior FBI agents in charge of small offices around the US to move to Washington DC. These were the competent, backbone of the agency who believed in the rules. But, most of them retired rather than move their families to DC. And, that allowed Meuller to replace them with young, agents that would follow politically motivated orders.

A setup to claim Mueller intentionally muffed the investigation when his report confirms no collusion?

Good grief, what a piece of sh*t Will Dunham must be in person. Every sentence he writes is straight out of the lefty sewer.

The only collusion with Russia involved Democrats.
It’s Mueller’s job to make sure that all the crimes of the Kenyanesian Usurpation get covered up, including Uranium 1, which he was personally involved with.

How about that, a shill at al-Reuters tries to disstract from the fact that the UK’s own Christopher Steele is a slimy lying weasel who tried to subvert US elections.

If Mueller and his merry band of Clinton supporters, Trump haters, and rogue lawyers couldn’t find collusion it’s because there isn’t any collusion.
