I go with liberal elite idiot!
Until facts prove otherwise.
the word rod comes from fishing rod.....
Mueller was granted extraordinarily broad authority and scope. Not just Russian connections (or not). I’d like to know WHY he was selected especially knowing his close friendship with Comey.
Hopefully, the text of appointment letter:
Its good I need to use it as well.
Seth Rich didn’t hack. He leaked!
.........................
"Mueller's assignment, detailed in a one-page order signed by Rosenstein, covers the federal investigation into possible links or coordination between Russia and associates of the Trump campaign but also "any matters that arose or may arise directly" from the probe. It would also extend to any allegations of perjury, witness intimidation or obstruction of justice uncovered during the course of the investigation.
...................
To me that means if Mueller is privy to DNC intimidation of Trump for any reason especially being accused of being a Russian sympathiser they can then investigate. If it leads to Seth Rich so be it.
Seems to me Mueller will have to investigate who actually did the hacking of DNC computers was it the Russians or someone else and if they discover the real reason the DNC is dead.
This will be a self-inflicted wound by the DNC or whomever made up the Trump colludes with Russia op.
Well, Comey did know Trump wasn’t a target... he’s known Trump wasn’t the target since the start.
and
Flynn wasn’t the main target either...
“The FBI in late December reviewed intercepts of communications between the Russian ambassador to the United States and retired Lt. Gen. Michael T. Flynn — national security adviser to then-President-elect Trump — but has not found any evidence of wrongdoing or illicit ties to the Russian government, U.S. officials said.”
And Hillary knew something ‘funny’ was going on...
““But I was on the way to winning until the combination of Jim Comey’s letter on Oct. 28th and Russian WikiLeaks raised doubts in the minds of people who were inclined to vote for me but got scared off,” Clinton said. “There was a lot of funny business going on.” “
And Seth favored Bernie...
DNC staffer Seth Rich, who was shot and killed in Washington, D.C., last ... son leaked more than 44,000 emails to WikiLeaks before his death. ... DNC favored Hillary Clinton over Bernie Sanders in the presidential primary.
And most important - the MSM - a group that can’t afford real reporters ‘finding stuff’ because they’ve been downsized to nothing..., HAS STOPPED LOOKING AT THIS PART OF THE STORY - LIBERAL ELITES ARE NOT FEEDING THEM ON THE REAL INVESTIGATION.. AND EITHER IS THE FBI NOW THAT COMEY’S BEEN SHUT DOWN...
Then again, Comey could just be a liberal elite idiot.
LOL - good one.
“....Then again, Comey could just be a liberal elite idiot....”
Apply Occam’s Razor and that (above!) explains so many things!
How can Mueller not look at the DNC computers and servers to see who if anyone hacked them? That will lead straight to Seth Rich.
I hope you’re right, although it seems that Mueller has just been given or has seized unlimited power to take over the Attorney General’s Office.
Both the AG and Deputy have recused themselves and it sounds like Mueller can set his own parameters and then expand them at will. He is also looking into AG and Deputy role in firing Comey. Probably, did they conspire to dump Comey because he was getting too pushy on Russia? or anything else? If so, I guess Mueller would charge them and Trump with obstruction and certainly a jury would acquit (unless it is a DC jury like Mitchell, Erlichman and Haldeman faced).
Trump told the Russians that Comey was getting to crazy about thre Russians, too much pressure. I do not see that as criminal, but a GD special counsel sees everything in the most sinister light.
For the life of me I cannot use search here to find anything
I type James Coney Senate testimony and get there are no inquiries b’s , dang it
Sunday political talk shows
If nothing else about the Sunday talk shows on 6/10/17 was obvious it was there were NO Republicans out there defending President Trump.
You had Lindsey Graham and Susan Collins but first, these are two GOP elites of the highest order. Second nobody else was free? Senate Majority Leader McConnell? Speaker of the House Paul Ryan.
They want Trump to get impeached, it’s the only logical conclusion to make.

Lindsey Graham vs Chuck Schumer. Oddly, they sound much alike in the defense of Trump.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6MuJ8po59s
Whoever this Preet Bharara, he’s an asshole.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FY4a5EM_3tA
Double female trouble as again, a Dem and Repub duo sound alike in discussion of that horrible Trump person. We have Susan Collins-Repub, and Dianne Feinstein-Dem.
So Rep will stay home or vote for the Dem because Trump is stuck with a gutless Congressional leadership?
Now THAT’S good clear thinking......NOT!!
Comey should be facing criminal charges. He leaked a government document purposefully to have a Special Counsel appointed to bring down Trump.
Within hours of the NYT publishing the leaked information, Rod Rosenstein appointed Robert Mueller, a good friend of Comey’s, as Special Counsel. On June 6, 2017 Robert Mueller hired Andrew Weissmann.

Arthur Andersen Convicted - tens of thousands of people lost their jobs
https://www.dawn.com/news/43388
Arther Andersen conviction overturned by SCOUTS unanimous decision:
http://www.cnn.com/2005/LAW/05/31/scotus.arthur.andersen/
http://money.cnn.com/2005/05/31/news/midcaps/scandal_andersen_scotus/
http://www.foxnews.com/story/2005/05/31/supreme-court-overturns-arthur-andersen-conviction.html
Justices said the former Big Five accounting firm’s June 2002 conviction was improper. It said the jury instructions at trial were too vague and broad for jurors to determine correctly whether Andersen obstructed justice.
ANDREW WEISSMAN is scum!

It seems obvious to me Comey’s leak was orchestrated to appoint a Special Counsel. Worse yet, the Mueller/Comey team is planning a Criminal Investigation that may already be underway. See and hear what McCabe said Wednesday to Senator Reed at the 2:53:50 - 2:54:10 mark:
http://www.redstate.com/sweetie15/2017/06/07/watch-live-senate-intel-hearings-wednesday-60717/
Paraphrasing for those not able to put in the time: Senator Reed: (to McCabe) You are not commenting on the conversations between you and Comey because the conversations between Trump and Comey are under Criminal Investigation or may be under Criminal Investigation, is that correct? McCabe answered yes.
Remember this hearing happened a day before Comey’s testimony.
Robert Mueller is NOT really straight. Just two instances:
1) He was head of the FBI when Russia warned us TWICE about the Tsarnaev brothers and he ignored them both times. There was also some stuff where a connected Muslim needed to get out of the country
2) Let’s go way back. Remember when Drudge put up a story about Bill and a WH intern with initial “M” in a sexual context. The WH didn’t know who they were talking about, but apparently there was a gay intern whose initial was also “M”.
Now go back to the Starbucks murders—three young people shot to death in Starbucks after hours as they were counting the day’s money. It was a robbery where the robbers took none of the money (kinda like the Seth Rich Thing). The “boss” was a former WH intern and the two young guys were worker bees. She was shot lots of times while the boys were just shot dead.
(https://www.washingtonian.com/2008/08/01/the-ultimate-g-man-robert-mueller-remakes-the-fbi/ : He led a number of high-profile cases, from the Georgetown Starbucks murders to the incident in which a drunk Georgian diplomat killed a teenage girl in a car accident near Dupont Circle.
Now I have to say that everywhere I looked, I found people praising him for his work ethic and “fairness”. Just a guess on my part, but maybe he actually wanted to do right, but would do whatever he needed to do to be where he wanted to be.
McCabe’s days are numbered. He’s toast.
Bartiromo is the real thing. You might not like where she stands, but she is honest as the day is long.
Just above: WRT the Starbucks case, Mueller came up with a local hoodlum who was mentally vulnerable (don’t remember whether it was drugs or whatever) and hustled the case through. This part is from memory and I can’t find all the details on that one to back myself up. You’ve been around here a long time and I forgot you’re newer ‘04. There were loooong threads about Mueller and who really did the murders.
The Saudi(s?) needed to get out in a hurry and Michele was helping to make it happen.
We (FR) don’t keep our articles after 10 years or so. I wish I could get them back.
