Mueller facing new Republican pressure to resign in Russia probe
Fox News ^ | 10/27/17 | By Brooke Singman

Posted on 10/27/2017 11:56:55 AM PDT by Behind Liberal Lines

Special Counsel Robert Mueller is facing a fresh round of calls from conservative critics for his resignation from the Russia collusion probe, amid revelations that have called into question the FBI’s own actions and potentially Mueller’s independence....

Critics question whether Mueller’s own ties to the bureau as well as fired FBI director James Comey now render him compromised as he investigates allegations of Russian meddling and collusion with Trump officials in the 2016 race.

“The federal code could not be clearer – Mueller is compromised by his apparent conflict of interest in being close with James Comey,” Rep. Trent Franks, R-Ariz., who first called for Mueller to step down over the summer, said in a statement to Fox News on Friday. “The appearance of a conflict is enough to put Mueller in violation of the code. … All of the revelations in recent weeks make the case stronger.”

This is “RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUUUUUUUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSIA”, so Session is out of it due to his recusal. So WHO will direct this horror of a SCANDAL? I have no idea, but am extremely wary about it all.

Trump should have gone on a tear, from day one; removing as many old holdovers ( or moving the ones he couldn’t fire to outtersloibovia, doing scut work ), but he wasn’t smart enough to do so. Another problem being that neither he nor his advisors were linked to any people to put into those positions. BAD MOVES !


I think he received some bad advice from his kiddos :( I agree w/you that he should have cleaned house completely on day one! As used to be said, “Throw the bums out!” (No offense to self-respecting bums, but these Washington Swampdwellers are the worst!

I think he (and I) under estimated the depths to which the leftists would go and continue to go to keep their power.

Oh I long for the days when the news would show a herd of angry seniors chasing Dan Rostenkowski down the street! When the Washingtonians were held accountable by both the people and the media.

I’m not talking about quips and banter during debates. Bottom line, Trump didn’t hire Mueller.

This whole thing is shaping up to be the biggest scandal in my lifetime...and I lived thru Watergate.

Me too. Have you noticed that every time we turn around the democrats have caused another scandal these days and usually around the Clintons.

We must put an end to the Clinton crime family once and for all.

It does seem to be DAILY occurrence! I periodically put up a current events photo as background on my computer screensaver.

Last summer I put up this photo--I had no idea it would still be there a year later...

Sadly, as much as I like Trump, I gave him far too much credit for knowing and understanding some very simple political maneuvers.I also imagined that he was better politically connected than he was. And yes, he has mostly LOUSY advisors!

I and quite a few others, could have advised him far better and made him see that we are right!So what does THAT say for them...not "us"? :-(

And he NEVER should have underestimated the depth of THE SWAP, nor imagined that he could cajole Chuckles Schumer! Or even win over Hilary and her horde who are still there.

LOL...THE GRAY PANTHERS! I remember that and the whole thing with Rosty. :-)

Good...looking forward to catching up with ya! :-)

I have 2 dogs, so it is particularly funny to me...I am sure they have contemplated the Russians excuse—they just haven’t pooped in the hallway while I have been gone...;)

It keeps me sane during these crazy times...If lose sense of humor, it’s over ;(

Ha ha. Did you see what you got me into on that other thread? The one about anti-matter/matter? They were about to eat poor bagster for breakfast. Good thing it got pulled. My doom was imminent. They were about to whip out the comfy chair on me.

Couldn’t believe you engaged them.

Funny thing about many “christians”.

They act more like hyenas than Fishers of Men...

Heck, some of them I couldn’t understand WTF they were talking about....

your gung fu is adequate.

I didn't mean to engage them. I was goin' for the "no such thing as time" thing. Still triggered them.

Sometimes I don't know the strength of my own gung fu.

It's that powerful.

No idea. But Jim Robinson himself did it. The note was something like, "Alex Jones malarkey," or something. I didn't notice who the original post was from. Coulda' been Alex Jones I guess.

Yup. I had him pegged from day one. Call it premonition or whatever - I’ve never before felt such evil intent coming from anyone like I did while watching him during the inauguration.

I honestly have to say I had a feeling it just might be. During the reign of Hussein O and reading through this forum would see how everyone was rightly upset and venting but when they would make comments suggesting they couldn’t wait until 2016 and the ballot box I wondered if they realized that by that time much of the damage and corruption taking place cannot just be undone that easily. Boy, did that hunch turn out to be right.

It shouldn’t be the Republicans’ job to “pressure” Mueller in to resigning. Trump and Sessions have the power — I think Congress does, too — to fire his ass at a moment’s notice. They need to DO THEIR JOBS!

The only way to get rid of Meuller is if somebody claims he put his hand on her shoulder 30 years ago.....
