Mueller Comes Up Short - Again
Front Page ^ | February 21, 2018 | Matthew Vadum

Posted on 02/21/2018 8:49:02 AM PST by detective

A Dutch lawyer unconnected to the unproven claim the Trump campaign somehow colluded with Russia to influence the outcome of the 2016 election has pled guilty to lying to Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigators.

This failure – yet again – to indict a Trump campaign official in connection with the campaign’s allegedly collusive behavior appears to constitute another tacit admission by Mueller that the Left’s electoral collusion conspiracy theory that he was commissioned to investigate is utter nonsense. Charging all these people with lying, instead of with anything related to collusion, is likely a prosecutorial tactic to pressure somebody somewhere into doing something. Mueller’s real target seems to be former Trump campaign manager Paul J. Manafort Jr.

The Mueller so called "investigation" has become increasingly pointless and unrelated to its supposed original purpose.

1) Flynn’s probably filing for dismissal as of Friday.
2) All this new guy has to do is say “I didn’t intend to delete the file” and all is forgiven.

Mueller is making an ass of himself. The longer he runs around catching inconsequential people for process crimes to create headlines, and the more he ignores anything to do with the Clinton campaign - the more he is destroying his already tattered reputation for the historical record

Does he care? Is he too stupid or too blinded to realize it?

The motto of America’s deep state regime is “There is nothing which is pointless or unrelated to the matters in which they decide to pursue” Anything no matter how insignificant or unrelated is to be data harvested, stored, and made to be of use if decided.

The investigation IS achieving it’s purpose.

To keep alive the narrative that Trump only won due to “Russian meddling” and give the Democrats a bloody shirt to wave for their supporters in 2020.

Best thing Trump can do at this point is release an up-to-the-minute accounting of how much taxpayer money Mueller has spent on his witch hunt.

Are you kidding? When you were the getaway driver, you investigate everyone who just might ask you where you were? It keeps your crew immune.

At this time the History profession is dominated by Howard Zinn-loving far-Left Socialist Apparatchiks. His historical record will be just fine, at least for the next century or so. They will see to that.

Reminds me of one of latter-year “Law & Order” episodes. By the time they get to the courtroom the accused and the associate crime has nothing to do with the original murder (almost always a murder).

This has left the shores of the USA and probably won’t be back.

Mueller didn’t come up short as I bet he’s still getting paid....isn’t he? The American taxpayers are the ones coming up short.

The indictment of Trump on Obstruction will occur probably in the summer... paving the way for the dems to take the House and start impeachment proceedings... and than an eventual attempt at removal.

Mueller’s investigation has never been about Russia... it has been about indicting Trump and removing him...

Did the President obstruct... no... will that matter if the Dems’ get the house... absolutely not.

I pray the President has something up his sleeve with the FISA / FBI / DOJ IG investigation... otherwise he is in trouble.

Nothing else makes sense.

The Mule-er is doing what his masters have tasked him with. He isdrowning the public in trivial garbage so that the FACTS about Illary, the DNC, and Barry Soetoro never see the light of discovery in a court of law. Mule-er will be well rewarded for his work. He is a tool of deep state which now runs Amerika.

The whole purpose of the Mueller investigation was to look for “collusion” and failing to find it demand access to President Trump’s financial records going back 30 years to find “proof”that the President if not dealing with the Russians in all probability has committed numerous crimes in his business dealings. The Democrats believe that if they can root around in the President’s financial affairs they will find something on him. This is the golden path to impeachment as far as the Democrats and the media are concerned which is why their going to keep riding this lame horse.

The only way to stop this is a relational maneuver to investigate the investigator, hollowing out the initial phony pretext for the investigation in the first place. Or the best defense is a good offense.
