The Justice Department on Wednesday released a mostly unredacted version of then-Acting Attorney General Rod Rosenstein's August 2017 "scope memo" outlining the authority of former Special Counsel Robert Mueller -- and the document reveals for the first time that Mueller's authority went significantly beyond what was known previously.

“This is Rip Van Sessions’s baby.”
“Trust Sessions....”
Idiots.

Was that part of the plan ? God the q tards must realize by now it was all bs .
Per another article on the release:
Rosenstein Scope Memo For Mueller Peddled Steele Dossier, Logan Act Conspiracy Theories
A large section of the scope memo still remains blacked out.
That's one way to put it. Another way to put it is that there is still another subject of the investigation not publicly revealed. Another "crossfire" subject, presumably associated with or linked to the Trump campaign in some way and pursued as an investigative Target by the special council. The whole story is still not out there.
It’s obvious from reading Rosenstein’s August letter to Mueller, which includes a list of new, specific areas that could be investigated, that Mueller’s team spoon-fed that list to Rosenstein, and being the weasel that he is, Rosenstein delivered their wish-list to them on a silver platter.

That would be around the time GOP Senators were publicly threatening POTUS not to fire Sessions. Rosenstein knew he had a free hand to assist the coup and their would be no oversight from Congress.
It will not mean anything until Hillary goes to prison.
“Rip Van Sessions” - that is so true.
Honest questions were never asked during this investigation. When Sessions recused himself it apparently left a bunch of partisans who frankly do not look very smart in charge.... just as intended?
Was there not one boss at DOJ that asked simple questions about all of this nonsense from the beginning? Not even one?
For there to be an investigation there must be a predicate crime. There was not. There never has been. Gregg does a good job of laying this out.... FARA - nope. Logan Act - ridiculous.
This is a fundamental problem within the FBI. Counter-intelligence investigations are different than criminal investigations. The “dossier” was a counter-intelligence investigation so we are supposed to accept that they took that investigation and morphed it into a criminal investigation via the Special Counsel?
Again, why was there not one boss attorney at DOJ that put the brakes on this and demanded to know what the underlying crime was to open a criminal investigation. We know Rosenstein charged ahead with some dubious reasoning. Sally Yates suggested the Logan Act for Flynn.
This should frighten every American. What was the crime? You can accuse me of anything, but for a law enforcement agency to open an investigation there must be at least a reasonable suspicion that I committed a crime. I am still trying to figure out what the crime was that justified a Special Counsel who went full-bore criminal investigation targeting people with process crimes and an old case that had previously been declined for prosecution (Manafort).
Flynn was the crown jewel for Mueller and that is not aging well and it also looks increasingly partisan by the day. Same question - what was the predicate crime violated by Flynn?
What was the crime?

Trump won the election

The predicate crime was Trump winning the primary and then the election.
The GOPe is busy looking the other way while Trump is assaulted by the coup because they hate him every bit as much as Schumer and Pelosi do.
The true crime was that these traitors were ever born. What malignant scumbags .
Roger Stone seems unaccounted for.
#2. Mueller is Rip Van Winkle. You saw that at his last major hearing.
Rosenstein is a little weasely shit and needs to go to jail.
Sessions is pathetic but he may be the best candidate for the Senate from Arkansas, Oz, or wherever he’s from. A weak “sister” instead of a strong, protective brother re America.
Surprise,surprise,surprise!
Isn’t Roger Stone being targeted by Mueller’s crew already public knowledge? He’s in jail now because of Mueller’s railroading. I guess if there were bits about those claimed ties to WikiLeaks that may still be a part of an active investigation and it would make sense to redact, but the fact of Roger Stone itself wouldn’t need to stay redacted.
