WSJ editorial board calls for Mueller's resignation and accuses Clinton and DNC of collusion
Business Insider ^ | 10-28-2017 | WSJ Editorial Board

Posted on 10/29/2017 12:20:34 PM PDT by NRx

The Wall Street Journal's editorial board called this week for a full Russia investigation — not into President Donald Trump, but into the Democratic party, the FBI, and special counsel Robert Mueller.

"It turns out that Russia has sown distrust in the U.S. political system—aided and abetted by the Democratic Party, and perhaps the FBI," the editorial began. "This is an about-face from the dominant media narrative of the last year, and it requires a full investigation."

The editorial argued that a Washington Post report published Tuesday "revealed" that Hillary Clinton's campaign and the Democratic National Committee hired the Perkins Coie law firm, which in turn retained the opposition-research firm Fusion GPS and funded a now-infamous dossier containing salacious allegations about Trump's ties to Russia. The dossier was compiled by ex-British spy, Christopher Steele, who has several deep Russian sources.

"Strip out the middlemen, and it appears that Democrats paid for Russians to compile wild allegations about a US presidential candidate," the editorial said. "Did someone say 'collusion'?"

When the Journal speaks, American business listens.

When American business speaks, DC listens.

Hang ‘em. Keelhaul ‘em fore and aft on the USS Ronald Reagan. Beat them to death in a bump-stock gauntlet. But not prison. Oh, no. Serial killers, drug dealers and insurance salesmen are too good for the company of these scumbags.

So we have the Washington Post (if they take their own report to it’s proper conclusion) and the WSJ. It will help to get a couple more big papers and at least one broadcast network to do the right thing. That would create some momentum.

Get ALL the bank records out and all will be revealed. It’s really that simple. It’s the place to start if they want to get to the bottom of this and reveal who was paying for what. That’s obvious.

Watch the democrats scream as they get close to the bank records.

I cancelled my WSJ subscription last summer due to their 2016 election coverage. I’m hopeful, but cynical of this development.

This is big since the WSJ is a never Trumper paper.

That’s the bottom line right there. Simple and easy to understand. The Democrats should be worried about how this thing is shaping up.

I have no doubt that the leaked prosecutions have been rushed to try to save Meuller’s job.

WOW! As the WSJ has been drifting quite leftward especially under is relatively new ownership, this editorial is quite (to me, anyway) unexpected from them.

sounds good, tho!
Hopefully President Trump reads the WSJ?
I have felt from the beginning that if the entire SorozNazi-Obama-HilLIARy-DNC-DWS-Holder mess isn’t gonna get investigated, cleaned up....that any other investigations are at best of minor importance, and distractions
