With President Trump entering the "counter-punch" phase of the Russia investigation, allies are urging him to consider two avenues -- each with its own potential payoffs and pitfalls -- to investigate the origins of the probe and hold top Justice Department officials accountable for alleged wrongdoing.
Special Counsel Robert Mueller announced the completion of his investigation last week, transmitting his more than 300-page report to the Justice Department for review. Attorney General Bill Barr released a four-page summary of Mueller’s report Sunday, stating the special counsel found no evidence of collusion between members of the Trump campaign and Russia during the 2016 presidential election, despite numerous offers from Kremlin-linked individuals.
This week, Trump allies are seizing on the results of the nearly two-year-long investigation and presenting options for the president to pivot to uncover alleged misconduct at the start of the probe.

A very complete article.
Why not ensconce the role of Special Persecutor into the Constitution? When can we get regular order, and have the normal prosecutors simply prosecute, without walking on eggshells due to political pressure or the “appearance” of bias? Screw it! Go to court! Call a Grand Jury!
Still servicing George Soros, ETL?
Screw you, you fake POS.
It was the George-Soros-supported OBAMA-HILLARY admin who colluded with your boy Putin.
I agree. With the part about DOJ doing its job and using regular prosecutors I mean.
Where are the pitfalls???
I don’t see a downside.
I hope whatever is going on between you two doesn’t get this thread pulled. Good topic, but some real buzz kill comments going there.
Pretty simple. So-called “Navy Patriot” is a diehard supporter of Putin and Russia.
I don’t plan to take sides. He posted a very relevant article that has nothing to do with your beef. Take it off line.
We don’t need a Special Counsel, there are Hundreds of people rotting away on Death Row all across this country that were convicted on Far Less than what is Publicly Known regarding this attempted Overthrow of the United States Government.
ARREST ALL OF THEM and since they All have Top Secrets, BAIL IS DENIED!
I don’t see a downside.
A special prosecutor would indicate those being investigated had insider power and influence to derail the investigation and consequences.
Standard Dept. of Justice/FBI procedures would indicate less influential subjects.
Normally special prosecutors are not requested.
Downside is damage of credibility of the Justice System.

Seizing! Or pouncing! The MSM is always pushing a narrative.
I tend to agree, but there are some FBI, CIA, MI6 and DemoRat criminal operatives that will be investigated, maybe even McCain, post mortem.
You are observant and correct.
Come down on all of them with a sledgehammer, since the next 2yrs are going to be 10x worse than the past 2yrs.
We don’t have a “Justice System”.
We have a broken, corrupted “Legal System”.
