Trump: 'Mueller probe should never have been started'
The Hill ^ | March 17th, 2018 | By Max Greenwood

Posted on 03/17/2018 7:00:04 PM PDT by Mariner

President Trump asserted on Saturday that special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia should never have been opened in the first place.

"The Mueller probe should never have been started in that there was no collusion and there was no crime," Trump wrote on Twitter.

"It was based on fraudulent activities and a Fake Dossier paid for by Crooked Hillary and the DNC, and improperly used in FISA COURT for surveillance of my campaign. WITCH HUNT!"

The Mueller probe should never have been started in that there was no collusion and there was no crime. It was based on fraudulent activities and a Fake Dossier paid for by Crooked Hillary and the DNC, and improperly used in FISA COURT for surveillance of my campaign. WITCH HUNT!

Based on the treasonous actions and coup by the FBI, CIA and other intelligence agencies that have been uncovered, Trump is well within his rights to declare a State of Emergency, fire the Special Prosecutor and go all Erdogan on the domestic enemy and the press.

The type of PURGE Trump needs to initiate is described below:

“The 2016–17 purges in Turkey are an ongoing series of purges by the government of Turkey enabled by a state of emergency in reaction to the 15 July failed coup d’état.

After the immediate arrest of military personnel accused of making the coup attempt, arrests were expanded to include further elements of the Turkish military service, as well as various civil servants and private businesses.

This is what draining the swamp looks like:

Erdogan has arrested almost 50,000 people since the coup against him was uncovered.

He dismissed 2,745 judges THE NEXT DAY.
10,732 Police Officers-ARRESTED
10,012 Military (including 178 generals)-ARRESTED
81,494 Federal Apparatchiks-FIRED
42,767 people in the Ministry of Education including 21,738 suspended government workers and 21,029 public staff education members
8,777 Ministry of Interior personnel
2,745 judges and prosecutors have been listed for detention
3,000 soldiers — including 87 generals
1,577 university deans have been asked to resign
1,389 military personnel from the Turkish Armed Forces
3,672 officials removed in the Presidency of Religious Affairs
673 staff members at the Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Stockbreeding
599 officials from the Family and Social Policies Ministry
560 Ministry of Science, Industry and Technology personnel
529 Ministry of Transportation officials
500 officials at the Ministry of Finance
300 Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources staff
300 TRT employees
257 officials removed from duty in the Prime Minister’s Office
265 Ministry of Youth and Sports workers
262 military judges and prosecutors
221 officials Ministry of Forestry and Water Affairs
211 Turkish Airlines contracts have been terminated
184 Ministry of Customs and Commerce officials
180 Ministry of Labor and Social Security personnel
167 staff members at the Ministry of Environment and Urbanisation
110 Ministry of Culture and Tourism employees
100 Turkish intelligence service personnel
86 people removed at the Banking Regulation and Supervision Agency
86 staff dismissed at Ministry of Foreign Affairs including removal of Central Ambassadors Gurcan Balik and Tuncay Babali
82 Development Ministry workers
51 people at the Istanbul Stock Exchange while 36 have been terminated at the Capital Market Council
36 Energy Market Regulatory employees
29 Radio and Television Supreme Council workers
22 employees at the Housing Development Administration of Turkey
21 Turkish Statistical Institute workers
15 Ministry of Economy staff members
2 general directors, 1 deputy director general, and 5 department heads at Treasury

2,708 reporters-FIRED
179 Media Outlets-SHUT DOWN

Even after all of the crimes the Clintons committed, the impeachment, the disbarment, the mass murder in Serbia, the influence peddling and bribery at the Clinton Foundation, etc., they won a majority of the votes last election day.

The KLINTOONS would be BACK in the WH and in CHARGE of this corrupt banana republic, only one man could stop them, a man named Trump.

Obama and his communist mafia committed treason at the highest levels, actively working to dismantle the US military and give our enemies nuclear weapons.

The Obama Clinton crime families are still obstructing justice with the full weight of the executive branch agencies and media supporting them.

This fantasy that the criminals in government will be taken down from within using the legal system is childish and embarrassingly naive.

History clearly shows that only a military supported purge which includes mass arrests, imprisonments, seizing of assets, and executions will put a dent in these still currently untouchable bastards.

I sincerely think Trump doesn’t have the stones to take the next step.

Time is wasting away, less that 250 days until the GOP loses the House, and then Trump is impeached.

THAT is what “Draining the Swamp” looks like.”

All I see is all talk and no action.

Congressmen writing letters ain’t gonna get it

Our President only needs the right AG to get the job done: Rodrigo Duterte! His policy in action would accomplish the same goal.

Heard Mueller was put there to throw smoke bombs in the road so the get away car can make its way and also to protect him from any prosecution that may come down

President Trump has his finger on the “ Fire Special Prostitutor” button.

I can hear buckets of sweat being thrown out of various 2nd floor windows in hefty lefty Foggy Bottom.

We can safely eliminate the “Mueller secret white hat” theory. The man is as dirty as they come.

Oh, combat decorated U.S. Marine Corps officer, as dirty as they come,, check ...

and an apprentice President who does not know the first thing about interviewing and selecting the best candidate for the position, check

Allow me to wait for the conclusion, and then I will know who was who in this zoo coup.

I believe he is. Which is why the Democrats are getting so hysterical. They want violence. Cities burning for the midterms.

It really does seem like they’re becoming even MORE hysterical and MORE shrill because they know that they and their anti-American ideology will lose and lose big if Trump can make good on his promises to bring prosperity back to our country. A friend of mine, who actually watches TV, called me all alarmed last night because the media was going nuts that “Trump fired some guy!” (as if that’s a big thing). I had to patiently explain to him that Trump didn’t fire anyone and that the Attorney General fired someone based on the recommendation of the FBI, and that the “firing” ultimately meant next-to-nothing ANYWAY because that guy was due to retire in one day.

The way the media (including Fox News) now lies on a daily basis in order to whip people into a frenzy suggests that violence is their ultimate aim. Maybe you’re right and they expect that a little civil unrest that might do them well in the mid-term elections. The problem, for them, is that there’s no assurance it would stay “little.”

Trump may already know or have a good idea what is in the IG report which is due out soon.

Once it it released and the firestorm ensues he can drop the hammer.

Oh, big deal. John McCain is highly decorated, too, and he’s one of the most back-stabbing, evil bastards on the planet.

If Mueller is such a good guy, why did he stock his team with anti-Trump Democrat hacks?

If the Repukes would go on TV and say that regularly, they would win in a landslide and the country could move on. Not sure what Trump will do but I’m thinking one option is to fire him a month or two before he elections and force Democrats off message, get them talking about impeachment and Russia and not jobs. It’s a high stakes play but that does seem like a Trump play. Otherwise he’ll try and help hold the house then fire him...If Dems get in it’ll be 2 years of Trump probes and impeachment hearing anyways.

C’mon no white hat would have filled his team with rat mercenaries get a grip. He purposely used DC for his Grand Jury which by all accounts resembled a black lives matter meeting. That said I’d rather he dump Rosenweasel and install an interim who will go after Mueller’s flank.

Trump needs to simply put all the information that the FBI, DOJ, CIA, State Dept and others have been stonewalling on for the last 8 years into the public domain to let the American people see how the system was being abused.

And it will happen because in their march to impeach Trump, violating laws left and right, they have made it such that it will have to be laid on the table for everyone to see.

If they had just pretended to support Trump and kept their mouths shut, they would not even be in this position.

When a neverTrumper posts a defense of Sessions, it is because they have no clue what is happening.

McCabre was just the start-—BUT Sessions/Horowitz did not want to move yet. All pieces are not aligned and all evidence not in. As they say, “the battlefield has not yet been prepped.”

They had to move on McCabre because of timing of his retirement. This morning you see Trump continues to up the ante. We are close.

Even lefites now are backing away from McCabre with Wittes and another douchenozzle lib lawyer saying “well, we don’t know-—we don’t have enough evidence.” (Powerline).

THEY KNOW the storm is coming. Mulehead continues to lay smoke, running hither and yon. Think Confederate Gen. McGruder in the 7 Days’ Battles, marching back and forth, occupying McClellan, doing nothing, while Lee prepares his attack. And throughout, Deep Stroke, Pageboy, and the rest of the Koup Klutz Klan are trapped in Mulehead’s investigation and CANNOT SAY ANYTHING! He keeps them in Wonder Woman’s golden lasso, tied and prevented from lying.

People here wanted Cankles’ head on a pike. Well, this is how you get it.

It is on Donald Trump as he should have fired Jeff Sessions as soon as Sessions setup Trump.

That is correct. There is to date no evidence of Russian manipulation of the election in sufficient manner to effect the outcome at all. Those who have been involved in this have to be punished as it is OBVIOUS that the investigation has taken place for purely vindictive, punitive reasons which have nothing to do with justice.

I was thinking he might fire Muleller just before the election to get the Dems focused on that and Russia. It’s high stakes because if the Repukes lose anyways he is gonna have a tough go at it
