Gregg Jarrett: Why Robert Mueller should resign as special counsel
Fox News ^ | May 19, 2017 | Gregg Jarrett

Posted on 05/19/2017 2:21:18 PM PDT by Jane Long

Robert Mueller has a serious conflict of interest that should disqualify him from serving as special counsel.

He has had a long and close relationship with someone who will surely become a pivotal witness –James Comey.

No one doubts Mueller’s sterling credentials. That is not the issue. He is imminently qualified. The problem arises in his duty to fairly and objectively evaluate the evidence he gathers.

How can Americans have confidence in the results if they know the special counsel may harbor a conspicuous bias? They cannot. The conflict inevitably discredits whatever conclusion is reached. It renders the entire investigatory exercise suspect, and it only elevates the controversy surrounding it.

But doesn’t Jeff Sessions play a part in this?

He should request “separate” day-by-day summations of the findings from Mueller AND his assistants......to make sure nothing is being held back.

“What can he do? He’s cornered.”

He can rehire Cory Lewandowski (I read that Trump still calls Cory for advice. Same with Bossi who worked on Trump’s primary team. I was very pleased to see that Ban on is with Trump’s team over in,the Middle East. I’ve been avidly watching the TV, and Fox is doing great coverage and the video over there in Saudi Arabia that we are seeing is amazing. Loving every minute of it.

“Chuck you” Schumer loved him. Said he was an excellent choice.

Guys, the fix is now in. Trump will be found guilty of crimes and impeached.

Doesn’t matter if they are real or manufactered....the appointment of a special prosecutor makes this inevitable.

What to hear my reasons behind it why I think Trump and we are screwed? Or do you want to think happy thoughts while ignoring the collar just put around Trump’s neck by the deep state?

Worked as agents not as the guys who call the shots. You know as well as I do that bosses are very different from the grunts.

Good point. I’ve always thought that Trump should appoint a VP that the swamp absolutely didn’t want, so as to eliminate any incentive to impeach. His lack of a large establishment good ole boy political base has always made his position vulnerable

If Robert Mueller truly embraces a fidelity to the law

Which law? The law of the Constitution? Or the law of the Leftists?

Suppose he is eminently qualified. Why should it matter that some people don’t want to believe it?
