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.
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.
They don't all remain cabal or deep state. Some migrate, try to get their reps back, others leave the game all together. It's not as cut and dried as any of us would like it to be. Unfortunately, going only on past performance does not always work.While it should be a good indication not always especially at the level these guys are operating at.
People rarely stay the same. They get better or worse. Hard to say where Mueller is. I want to trust Trump and his adivsors hope Mueller is straight but truth is we will probably have to wait and see.
Even then its a crap shoot because we will have to do the work of figuring out who,when, where he is interviewing and they the big one "why". He's not required to say anything. So I don't know where that leaves us.
