Much ado about nothing - at least nothing that anyone will do anything about.

Special Counsels are supposed to be vetted for conflicts of interest. Didn’t happen.

Special Counsels are supposed to be appointed to investigate a CRIME. So what CRIME is Mueller investigating?

Constitution? What Constitution?

“This bombshell revelation may be the key to dismantling Mueller’s entire operation”...........

Cannot Trump shut down Mueller and his ilk at anytime?

The point is that special counsels are supposed to be bound to a stated crime, and supervised in the execution of their investigation.

Since Mueller is apparently freelancing with no oversight, he fails the "inferior officer" test. Therefore, he must be appointed by the President before he can be confirmed by the Senate.

The alternative is for the AG to rein in Mueller and narrow the scope of his investigation to the Russian collusion theory only (which still isn't a crime), thereby relegating him to "inferior officer" status.
