Mueller to examine Trump business as part of Russia probe: report

The Hill ^ | 7/20/17 | Julia Manchester

Robert Mueller is looking into President Trump's business transactions as part of the ongoing probe into alleged ties between the Trump campaign and Russians who sought to influence the 2016 election, according to a Thursday report by Bloomberg.

[SoFloFreeper]

Trump supposedly told the NY SLIMES that Mueller has no business sticking his nose into his private commercial affairs when he was a private citizen. Bloomberg and The Hill say Mueller is going to defy that admonition.

Is this fake news?

[ptsal]

MUELLER HAS GONE OFF THE RESERVATION.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Not fake news. The Trump NYT interview is available online, and Mueller just gave a presser.

[PghBaldy]

The GOP looked at Clinton’s pre-POTUS history, so they’ll say there is precedent.

[Russ]

I don’t believe it is fake news. Mueller will do anything and go anywhere in order to bring down Trump. The only thing “fake” is Mueller’s investigations.

[EBH]

My heart just breaks for the United States right now.

A bogus meeting with a Russian lawyer, planted by 0bama...

A fake dossier...

I hate these fascist, dictating, diggers of treason.

[Rusty0604]

It’s been reported by FOX and Bloomberg. Sounds like purposely antagonizing President Trump.

[boycott]

Trump should limit any information to transactions or dealings with Russia. Other than that, he should tell them to stick it.

[butlerweave]

Mueller is just collecting things that will be leaked to the MSM and the Dems so they can keep the attack on Trump going ,Sessions fault

[madprof98]

I hope Trump fires him. No more “independent counsel.” If Congress doesn’t like it, they can impeach. We are due for a civil war anyway.

[McGavin999]

He has no business looking into President Trumps private business. They can interview his CPAs to find out if there is any Russian money involved in the election, the CPA is governed by the same ethics requirements that lawyers are.......wait.......

[Cheerio]

If TRUMP does not fire this Mueller, then Trump will be to blame when he is impeached. Do NOT look for the 2018 Congress to be controlled by the RINOs.

[txhurl]

Maybe the deal now is Sessions fires Mueller or DJT fires Sessions.

[Cheerio]

My heart just breaks for the United States right now.

It is way past heart breaking time - THIS IS WAR!

[dforest]

The GOP is not a Special Prosecutor.

[PGR88]

Mueller is a deep-state operative, and has been from the start.

How did he get appointed to this position anyway?

[goodnesswins]

Who’s been advising Trump in past? Jamie Gorelick?

[circlecity]

This makes it clear the investigation is an open ended fishing expedition to find any kind of dirt on Trump even if it had nothing to do with the election or campaign.

[yoe]

Muller could have a real pay-day probing for starters this man

[Red Badger]

Time for him to be fired.....................
