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.

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.

At this point, Mueller needs to recuse himself. Comey’s testimony has made that clear.

Trump should address the nation from the Oval Office in prime time to announce he has released Mueller from his position due to conflict of interest. He should then announce the Special Counsel itself is disbanded due to public disclosure that he (Trump) himself is not under investigation.

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!!!!

Mueller should step aside, but he won’t. He should also be fired, but that is now political suicide and would give the Uniparty Republicans the excuse they need to join the Democrats and support impeachment IMO. Mueller is the slow burning fuse to keep the Russia hysteria alive and produce the fiction necessary to try to cripple Trump, stop his agenda or get him impeached.

Mueller is as pathetic as Comey. A decent person would not have accepted such a task.

If Sessions had only talked to Trump before recusing himself none of this likely would have happened. We are now 5+ months into the Trump admin and we still have swamp creatures crawling out of the swamp and making their way into Trump’s pristine space and bringing other swamp dwellers with them. This needs to end.

Comey admitted they have been investigating Trump for a year on this alleged collusion with Russian hacking and have come up with nothing.

Rosenstein needs to amend the Special Counsel appointment to limit it to only the Manafort and Flynn matters and take everything else back into the regular DOJ as the investigation demonstrates there is no basis for a Special Counsel since there is no conflict of interest, as there was no collusion by Trump with the Russian government to hack the election.

And Mueller needs to be replaced by someone with no connection to the Clintons, Obama or the Never Trumpers.

NO!! Mueller should RECUSE HIMSELF. Just as Jeff Sessions was forced to recuse himself for attending an Obama cocktail party that also included the Russian ambassador, Mueller should recuse himself for being asked to investigate his friend. This should be the one and only line from ALL Republicans henceforth.

A big lawyer gravy train... whoever authorized funding for this is an isiot. The idiot party knee jerked and participated again in attacking Trump.

Those idiots still call it Russia investigation when Russia is not investigated, let alone Obama or Hillary.

This is a complete fraud from the get go.

Mueller is another one of Bush Jr disaster appointment, asking terrorists for advice, something he perhaps learned in College to do.

He will stake his stupid reputation on going after Trump, Nifonging the whole thing. That is all he has got in this, damn national security just as it was then when he talked to islamists
