Mueller Tied to Double Deception: First in Court, Then Before Congress
realclearpolitics.com ^ | 8/6/2019 | Paul Sperry

Republican lawmakers allege Special Counsel Robert Mueller may have perjured himself before Congress in his sworn testimony last month, when he gave what they say were incomplete answers regarding why he held an earlier press briefing.

Recently released court documents suggest Mueller may have made his surprise appearance before the press in Washington on May 29 as damage control after a federal judge privately threatened to hold his team in criminal contempt of court over what she called misleading language in his final report about Russian government interference in the 2016 election.

Under oath, Mueller denied the judge’s action had anything to do with his holding the press conference.

In the hastily arranged 9-minute press conference, Mueller announced that he was ending his investigation -- which was not news -- and concluded it without taking any questions. He made a point, however, to stress that the Russians he had indicted were “private” entities and "presumed innocent."

What Mueller didn’t tell the country was that the day before, his case against two Russian internet “trolling” firms had taken a sudden turn for the worse. It was a key part of his narrative that the Kremlin interfered in the 2016 election to help Donald Trump win.

If you were going after trolls and “trolling firms”, you could appoint a new special council every day of the week. Spam bots, trolling, like/freind/vote farming, and information aggregation is all a ubiquitous part of the internet, foreign and domestic.

The Mueller probe was not about Russia. It was about Trump.

Whether or not the consciously acknowledge that fact, everyone knows why it happened

One of the Biggest scams in history, using unelected government powers in All departments to envy soviet propaganda tactics to rile up the ignorant and the Have Nots, along with their fifth column Media Complex beating the propaganda drum for years.... to overturn an Election!

Only in America can sedition be taught in Public Education and Academia.

Most likely he didn't even read the report; written by Weaselman, so he got his teat in the wringer and didn't know what his name had been attached to.

Explains a lot about how he seemed so befuddled during his testimony.

And...nothing...nada...zipo. Republicans are too weak, timid and unprincipled to do anything or hold anyone accountable. There’s no shortage of incriminating information yet not one indictment. Hell, we still haven’t even seen the FISA docs yet!

Well, there was no reason for the cabal to ever be concerned about getting caught. They knew nothing would ever happen to them. The Republican Party is a joke and the plotters knew it. They had nothing to fear. Its too bad the Republican base hasn’t figured this out yet.

Don’t worry, I am sure the FBI and justice department is working as quickly as possible to destroy all the evidence, and silence any who would know...

he Russians he had indicted were “private” entities and "presumed innocent."

Unlike the President who is presumed guilty.

Speaking of the Justice Department, I think Jeff Sessions was actually more visible than Bob Barr, who has proven himself to adept at being nearly invisible.

Trump should have made good on his earlier promise to declassify and release the FISA docs. At least we would have learned some evidence in hand rather than watching the DOJ bury it.

I’m not sure who is less coherent, Mueller or Biden.

Oh, didn’t you hear about the tens of thousands of sealed indictments and that Hillary and Podesta and all their cronies were secretly arrested and taken to Guantanamo (but then they let them out as long as they wear ankle bracelets, but now they don’t have to wear ankle bracelets anymore, cuz, umm, I dunno).
