It is increasingly clear that President Donald Trump and the Republicans are engaging in a campaign to smear and discredit special prosecutor Robert Mueller. All of this is an effort to undermine an investigation into whether serious federal crimes occurred that potentially implicate individuals at the highest levels of the government, including Trump and members of his family.
The need for an independent criminal investigation is clear. Was there illegal collusion between Trump campaign officials and Russians? Has there been a cover-up that constitutes obstruction of justice? If so, who is responsible?
Contrary to the president’s assertion, this is not a partisan “witch hunt.” Already two individuals have plead guilty to federal crimes. George Papadopoulos plead guilty to lying to the FBI about his efforts, while a Trump campaign official, to set up meetings with Kremlin-connected sources who claimed to have damaging information about Hillary Clinton. Former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn plead guilty to “willfully and knowingly” making “false, fictitious and fraudulent statements” to the FBI about communications exchanged with a Russian envoy shortly after Trump took office.
Paul Manafort, Trump’s campaign manager for a time, and Rick Gates, his aide, have been indicted for the crime of “conspiracy against the United States.” They have been charged with operating as agents of foreign governments without registering as required by the law and laundering over $75 million in offshore accounts.

“The need for an independent criminal investigation is clear.” Pure unadulterated crap.
Stalinists lie. Always
They still want to prosecute those who tell of Stalin’s horrors.
Same will ever be true of the Obamunists and Clintonistas.
Finally saw an admission from a libtard who crossposts his rants to the walls of people I know (he must tag 50 or so people in each post). He acknowledges that Hillary’s private server was so she could control the narrative and what documents were retained but he is still in denial about that being somehow wrong, criminal, or an indication of any sort of suspicious activity.
Remember during the campaign when the media chastised those reading Podesta’s emails saying we don’t know if they are genuine and it’s the priviledged media’s role to review private communications? Did they ever come clean with their findings??!
Erwin Chemerinsky. Another one exposed.
Title was truncated. Last two words were removed:
BARF ALERT!
They can live in their Hillcoin bubble, it will all come crashing down soon.
Every Millenial with a smart phone believes this.
Mueller covered for the Xlintons and for Zero. The Xlinton Foundation got millions in exchange for pay for play with Uranium1. Xlinton associates made money off of Libya. Zero got to listen in on Trump and his team without legal rationale. Many former government employees lied under oath. This was and as long as Mueller is on the payroll, remains an attempted coup against a duly elected president of the US.
Do they mean like how the media treated Ken Starr and the Clinton investigation?
Swamp Marxists bump for later...
Robert Mueller... investigation into whether serious federal crimes occurred that potentially implicate individuals at the highest levels of the government, including Trump and members of his family.....
And Andy McCarthy and VDH continue to lecture us about how Heinrich Mueller is conducting a counter intelligence/not criminal, investigation into the vagaries of Russian meddling.
I think some folks on “our side” need to wake up.
“Chemerinsky” isn’t he a Russian?
“The need for an independent criminal investigation is clear. Was there illegal collusion between Trump campaign officials and Russians? Has there been a cover-up that constitutes obstruction of justice? If so, who is responsible?”
That dog won’t hunt. The original mandate of Mueller’s investigation has been exceeded. All sides agree that he’s looking for financial crimes now. That and his investigation is hanging over Trump’s head (and that of his family) in an attempt to stay his hand should further crimes of HIllary & Obama come to light.
Liberals do not believe in the US Constitution. They’ve called it on numerous occasion just a “God Damned piece of paper!”
Somehow the constitution didn’t exist during 8 years of obummer.
Was there illegal collusion between Trump campaign officials and Russians?
NO, Erwin, Put the Pipe Down, collusion is NOT a CRIME!!~!
It isn’t a smear to say the investigation is invalid, it isn’t Mueller’s fault this is true.
Nice try Erwin Chemerinsky but you’re an idiot.
He is a far left wing democrat law professor whose opinions make marx sound conservative, he has no credibility.
