Whether they were just close professional friends, or consider themselves personally friendly, the fact is that they are not at arms length. This relationship, at least as reported, appears to be much more than the routine interactions you might expect two law enforcement officers to have had in the regular course of business.
Something doesn’t seem right here. Comey manipulated the system into getting his friend appointed Special Counsel, and now that friend will be investigating matters in which Comey is a key witness. More than that, Comey’s own actions in leaking government property raise legal issues as to whether Comey himself violated the law.
Even assuming Mueller is able to separate his past with Comey from his present investigation, that relationship damages the whole purpose of having a Special Counsel who is completely independent in fact and appearance.
In a truly independent investigation, friends shouldn’t be investigating friends. Mueller should step aside to remove the taint on the Special Counsel investigation created by friend and witness James Comey.

Comey now claims he deleted his original memos, and the professor he gave a copy to is in hiding. Totally normal.

I have had enough of this stinking corrupt Swamp town.
Fire the son of a bitch, fire the stupid bastard who appointed him, and arrest Comey.
As a very-outside observer, shouldn’t most of these principals be in prison?
Yeah, but did he use bleach-bit? You know, like with a cloth.
Since Trump is not a target of any investigation, there is no executive level crime to appoint a special counsel. The special counsel should step aside and nobody should replace him.
The obvious targets of the investigation into Russia should be Obama, Clinton, Lynch and Comey.
Trump had the guts to fire Comey. He should also fire Mueller.
Easy Comey, easy Goey!
At this point, Mueller needs to recuse himself. Comey’s testimony has made that clear.
“I have had enough of this stinking corrupt Swamp town.
Fire the son of a bitch, fire the stupid bastard who appointed him, and arrest Comey”.
My sentiments exactly.
If Mueller is honorable, he will recuse himself
Well he gave Mueller copies of the memos right. Lemme guess, he misplaced / deleted them too?
He's a Deep State swamp creature who is tied at the hip to everyone who is involved in the current attempted Trump Coup. You think he will resign voluntarily? He quit his cushy Law Practice to take this gig. He will only leave in leg irons.
reality winner leaks minimal classified information, is immediately arrested upon discovery.
Admitted leaker comey still walking free.
A great question, which Herr Mueller needs to be asked in private, knowing that the question and his response is being recorded.
Trump must fire Mueller but he won't. Trump is just not thinking.
He's finished. /s
He should then list ALL of his accomplishments since Jan. 20th, one by one with a large chart on display itemizing his accomplishments, goals and agenda. Since it is CLEAR the DemonRat Congresscritters (ALONG WITH THEIR REPUBLICAN MINIONS) and their PUPPET MEDIA refuse to communicate Trump's successes to the American people, he should use this national address to communicate those successes.
He should ALSO announce he has changed his mind and appointed TOM FITTON of Judicial Watch as Director of the FBI!!!!
