"Bob Mueller understands and I understand the specific scope of the investigation, and so no, it's not a fishing expedition," Deputy attorney General Ron Rosenstein 8/6/2017
"We know that these types of endeavors end up being fishing expeditions" Kellyanne Conway 8/3/2017
This guy belongs in an orange jump suit, along with all his Hillary attorneys. They should be sharing a cell block with the Clintons, Obamas and GOP political leadership.
Money laundering? Why??...He’s a millionaire who’s worked his a** off since he was young man.
And it will fail miserably like all of the rest of this clown’s fishing expeditions.
Hopefully, we can locate him following CW-II, for the first demonstration of the new, steam powered, digitally controlled guillotine.
With instant replay.
Isn’t this what Sneiderman has been after all along? Russia is just a cover to look at Trump’s finances.
President Trump’s lawyers will keep Mueller’s lawyers running into each other.
This is getting too funny.
I’m sure they’ll investigate the Clinton Foundation’s ties to Russia and other countries. (Haiti relief funds come to mind)
What makes this all so unbelievable is that if he and his lawyers spent a day looking into the Clinton Foundation he could find a dozen crimes much worse than this.
Is Mueller going to say a Russian oligarch bought a Trump property with the intent of shielding money from Russian taxation? Who is he now, the Russian IRS?
It was supposed to be about election influence.
Then it was obviously about a testimony trap.
Now it’s about Russian money laundering.
Next it will be about golden showers in Moscow hotel rooms.
Mueller, seems very likely to be morals adverse!
It would not surprise me that what they might actually discover in this exercise is not what they probably wanted to see to begin with, i.e., Democrat ties to Russian oligarchs and money laundering.
This is the part where the Hillary crew should get sucked in, but good. Let it rip.
If Trump wins the election, will you accept it?
Altogether now, "F no!"
“at least 63 individuals with Russian passports or addresses had bought at least $98.4 million worth of property in seven Trump-branded luxury towers in southern Florida.
Although the Reuters review unearthed no suggestion of wrongdoing by Mr. Trump or his real estate organization, the analysis did find the buyers included several politically connected investors, such as a former Moscow construction firm executive who builds military and intelligence facilities and a St. Petersburg investment bank founder.
At the time, the Trump Organization’s chief legal officer, Alan Garten, dismissed the story. “I can say definitively that this is an overblown story that is media-created,” Mr. Garten told Reuters.
In July, Bloomberg reported that in addition to investigators scrutinizing Russian purchases of apartments in Trump company buildings, they were also examining the 2013 Miss Universe pageant in Moscow, Trump New York real estate deals with Russians and the 2008 sale of a Trump property to a Russian oligarch.”
Mueeuer is supposedly investigating whether any Russians bought condos in Trump branded buildings over the last 20 years. If they did, then Mueller will conclude that Trump and Russia must have colluded to rig the election.
It’s as simple as that.
I destroy all my businesses records once they hit 7 years old. The IRS allows many tax-related documents to be destroyed after 3 years.
I assume Trump keeps documents around as short a time as allowable, for exactly reasons like this.
As such, Mueller’s fishing expedition will need to stay relatively close to shore.
“n a bid to find any connections to “dark money””
fishing expedition. but they’re not gonna find anything since there’s nothing to find.
too bad Sessions didn’t devote these resources to the Clinton Crime Family finances.
in other words, Mueller has nada. In fact, even less than he started with.
Since he’s found no connection between Trump and Russia as it pertains to Russia assisting in the election of Trump, then it’s time for Mueller to make a public announcement and his team to resign. And it’s time for Sessions to appoint a second special investigator to determine why the FBI funded the work of a foreign intel agent(s) collaborating with the Dems to help them win the election.
And away he goes down the rabbit hole.
Mueller is going to make Fish Nuggets, from “parts”.
Trump better be clean, otherwise he is toast. This should never have gotten this far. Kiss off Sessions, you POS!
In other words, they’ve found nothing yet and so are going further and further afield trying to find some sort of dirt.
Russia helped Hillary and she still lost.
