A lot of snakes and scorpions live with the alligators in the swamp, and there are even more dangerous monsters there. No swamp creature is deadlier than a Washington lawyer.
The president is beginning to understand why he should never have agreed to his attorney general appointing a special prosecutor. We’re supposed to call him a “special counsel,” which may sound more upright, more punctilious and less fearsome, but words don’t fool anyone who lives in the swamp. A special counsel is hired to destroy the prey, like the gunfighter hired in Cheyenne to chase the sodbusters out of the valley.
The difference between a Cheyenne gunfighter and a special prosecutor is that the Cheyenne gunfighter is assigned to provoke a specific sodbuster to draw on him. A special prosecutor can choose an alternate target, just so he hits somebody. Kenneth Starr was hired to investigate Bill Clinton’s investments in White River waterfront property and wound up in Bubba’s underwear, and everything went downhill from there.
Robert Mueller was hired to investigate Donald Trump’s Russian connections, to get an indictment for something. “The Russian scandal” is recognized now to be a dry hole. So Mr. Mueller and his crack team of previously unemployed swamp lawyers are moving on to play the voyeur among the president’s business ventures. Maybe there’s something there. If not in the president’s ventures, maybe something nefarious in the business of his children or other associates.

Trump needs to be calling Mueller out via Twitter daily...let Sekelow help him craft the tweets - like the Podesta -Russia investment - or fire him and them. This is war.
Did Trump agree to that? And, of course, it was the Deputy AG who appointed Mueller, not the AG.
I WAN'T TRUMP!
1. Change the scope of the investigation to include all supposed Russian influence, specify the Uranium deal, money to the Clinton Foundation, and money paid to BJ & Podesta.
2. Require Mueller to detail why he does not have a conflict of interest because of his Comey connection.
Then fire him. Trump Supporters will not care.
To me that's comment is not correct.
Original quote from Rod Rosenstein's statement on hiring Mueller:
"The letter announcing the appointment says that Mueller is authorized to investigate "any links and/or coordination between the Russian government and individuals associated with the campaign of President Donald Trump; and...any matters that arose or may arise directly from the investigation."
Looking at Trump's business dealings through his years as a businessman is not within the scope or parameters of his assigned investigation.
The last special prosecutor knew from the outset that Richard Armitage was the leaker of Valerie Plame and yet continued until he trapped Scooter Libby.
Mueller doesn’t care what they had in mind when they hired him.
Normal people wouldn't think so but to a lawyer "any matters that arose or may arise directly from the investigation" is a hole that a Mack truck will fit comfortably through.
You are absolutely correct. Rosenstein has taken a hands off approach to this thing but he created this monster, he has to rein it in.
Also I want to know what this thing is costing us. How do we find out?
Way too much lee way to expand the scope, especially with liberal lawyers that have an axe to grind. Under that guideline, Mueller might as well go back and investigate the business dealings of Trump's father, and grandfather, how many diapers Donald soiled as a toddler during a 24 hour period, did any of his stool contain traces of Russian dressing, when, why, how, and to whom did he lose his virginity? Was it to a Russian?
White water. The name of the development was White Wayer
Precisely
Johnson County War underway...
Trump Supporters would applaud and then party for a couple of days.
It would be an object lesson for Sessions.
