Special counsel Robert Mueller is tapping additional Justice Department resources for help with new legal battles as his year-old investigation of Russian interference with the 2016 election continues to expand.
As Mueller pursues his probe, he's making more use of career prosecutors from the offices of U.S. attorneys and from Justice Department headquarters, as well as FBI agents -- a sign that he may be laying the groundwork to hand off parts of his investigation eventually, several current and former U.S. officials said.

I thought he was supposed to be wrapping this up.
And yet people are on here every day demanding a 2nd special counsel!
This has the hallmark of institutionalizing a permanent deep state prosecution force that will live on long after President Trump retires and will pursue and destroy everyone who opposes the corrupt Uniparty government.

What is the crime that they are charged with investigating again?
It’s like investigating you for ties to bank robbery even though there is no evidence that a bank was robbed [well it was here. Trump stole the election from the hereditary heir to the throne.]
At this rate Mueller’ DOTW (Department of Trump Witchhunt) Will be one of the biggest in the government
Mueller ... don’t you wish Ken Starr had had his zeal when there were actual crimes not related to interactions with investigators committed?
I expect it is way more than $18 mil, all those lawyers don’t work cheap.
The title should be “Mueller ramps up DOJ cya operation”
Paging Attorney General Sessions. Please pick up the red courtesy phone in the lobby.
Oh, my mistake, he’s not done with his nap yet.

Stick a fork in it - this was done months ago.
What if “reasonable prosecutors” see the dung heap that Mueller has compiled and realize there is no case?
>>>as he accelerates his investigation into potential collusion.
Garbage article. There’s no statute against “collusion”, so there’s nothing to investigate there.
As for the “tapping more DOJ” people, that’s possibly because those russians are fighting back, manafort is fighting back, and the judge on the flynn case may well dismiss next week.
Nice try Chicago paper, but no one’s buying it.
That may be his biggest reason to offload the cases onto other prosecutors.
>>>I’m told Jeff Sessions is all over this
As a rule, I don’t trust any GOP congresscritter. I never have. But I actually had some faith in Sessions pre-election.
It’s crap like sessions, that explains why I’m jaded, and have trust issues. Because man, was i ever wrong about him.
Same here. Loved Session’s stand on immigration in the U.S. Senate.
He blew up the “gang of 8” immigration bill.
“Ridiculous...this witch hunt needs to end....NOW.”
I’ll bet a dollar to doughnuts, this farce will still be going on when the calendar hits, 20 January 2025. Mueller isn’t about to let go of this “Cash cow”.
“Ridiculous...this witch hunt needs to end....NOW.”
I’ll bet a dollar to doughnuts, this farce will still be going on when the calendar hits, 20 January 2025. Mueller isn’t about to let go of this “Cash cow”.
He has 2-3 months to find something for the midterms.
