Mueller interviews with key Trump White House officials coming up
MSN News ^ | 11/21/2017 | Marshall Cohen

Posted on 11/20/2017 11:18:41 AM PST by detective

Investigators working for special counsel Robert Mueller are scheduled to interview additional senior White House officials in the coming weeks, adding to their list of high-profile interviews and pushing the investigation closer to President Donald Trump and his family.

On the slate are White House communications director Hope Hicks, White House counsel Don McGahn and Josh Raffel, a communications aide to White House senior adviser Jared Kushner. Other staff are also expected to be interviewed.

The Mueller investigation has been a total failure despite almost unlimited resources and exorbitant funding.

George Papadopoulos was a 30 year old volunteer on a committee that met once to advise the campaign. He was not part of the campaign. He supposedly misreported the date of a meeting with a professor. George Papadopoulos had previously worked with the Clintons.

The charges against Manafort date back several years and were about the time he was working with the Podesta group and possibly Clinton. The charges said he failed to fill out a form (so did Podeesta) and supposedly was involved in money laundering to avoid taxes but no charges were made for tax evasion.

Absolutely nothing about the Trump campaign and Russia.

Now Mueller is looking into the firing of Comey which was totally legal.

Mueller is ensnared in Uranium One and so is the guy who appointed him Rosenstein. This is nothing but a rearguard action by the Swamp. They better treat this guy as an hostile adversary and don’t answer squat since he’s not an ethical man.

Reason - Mueller wants to pressure the administration: today, supposedly the FBI informant Mr. Campbell is to appear at Capital Hill behind closed doors with damning evidence against that un-indicted criminal Hillary.

“Now Mueller is looking into the firing of Comey which was totally legal.”

That is exactly where that asshat has been going since day one...note one of the first hires was an expert (magician) with obstruction matters. See, they have nothing on Trump so what they are trying to make here is: Trump fired Comey to stymie the probe into a un-provable, beyond the scope of his inquiry, and neither a criminal or civil matter of substance. IOW, he may have stopped Comey from finding there was nothing there. This whole thing is reprehensible.

Can the cat hold a big black bag that says “Uranium One” on it? It should!

Why does it take “weeks” to interview a handful of administration officials?

Is mueller interviewing all the members of the waitstaff as well?

So, let me get this straight. He fired Comey with the intent of shut down an investigation and therefore obstruct justice as this investigation that got started later due to Comey leaking of memos has found nothing...

These aides should agree to be interviewed only if it is by Mueller himself and they should take extensive notes of the meeting and release them afterwards. Time to play hardball rather than sit there and let this witch hunt toy with them. I would also want a transcript of the interview, by court reporter or recording, to minimize the chances of later being falsely accused of lying.

I wonder if he really is expecting someone to say: “Well, yeah, Trump sent me over to Putin for some more strategies on how to keep Hillary from campaigning and how to make Hillary continue to look like she is salivating over the idea of gutting someone and how to maintain just the right camera angle to show the crazed demented glare in her eyes.”

That is all lying in a memo somewhere in the archives of the Trump election campaign.

I read a while ago and I wish I could find it, actually a copy of an article, that Mueller had nothing to do with U1 as far as bringing any uranium to Russia. It was a completely different scenario, totally legit. If I can find it, I’ll copy and paste and ping you.

Nothing is known of the sealed indictments, thus the term ‘sealed’. Bloggers claiming a particular number by Mueller are just making it up. The same legal jurisdictions have large grand jury investigations of a Navy scandal and actions against MS-13.

I’d like a full and complete accounting of the costs of this investigation, laying out every dead end probe and the names of every Mueller lawyer involved.

Adding their home addresses would be a plus...

I agree that Mueller delivery of that sample to Russia in a criminal case probably has nothing to do with U1. However, he was the FBI Director at that time and he likely is mixed up in some way of Hillary taking bribes. Did he ignore it?

- - - -

Rep Gohmert:

“Rosenstein and Mueller are in this up to their eyeballs,” the Texas congressman told “Outnumbered Overtime” on Tuesday.

“Whether we need to get another special counsel or not, it certainly cannot be Bob Mueller and Rod Rosenstein,” Gohmert said. “They need to be out of the picture.”

Federal prosecutors are investigating the Uranium One deal and its connection with Russian payments to the Clinton Foundation while Hillary Clinton was secretary of state. Both Mueller and Rosenstein were close to FBI leadership, which was already aware of kickbacks and bribery with an American uranium trucking firm before the deal was approved.” -snip-
