Mueller Probe Hasn’t Cost Taxpayers Anything
November 29, 2018 at 11:55 pm EST By Taegan Goddard

New York Magazine: “As of September, the fiscal cost of the Mueller investigation was roughly $0.00. By that point, the probe had spent roughly $26 million. But, by striking a plea agreement with Paul Manafort for his myriad white-collar crimes — an agreement that required Trump’s former campaign manager to forfeit five multi-million-dollar properties, a life-insurance policy, and the contents of multiple bank accounts — Mueller’s investigation had acquired somewhere between $26 million and $42 million worth of revenue for the federal treasury.”

1. Now, now, don't be messing with the right wing corporate M$M narrative.

3. By the time the

rest of the crooks in this administration and the gop are convicted, we may be able to pay off the entire National Debt. A large portion of it, anyway. McConnell is loaded from those drug ships his father-in-law operates.

2. --- and if Orangeasshole pardons him, he still loses the money.

5. Love that one.

4. We are going to purge the Russian mafia from our government, including their favorites Prez

AND MANIFORT’S GONNA PAY FOR IT!

[The Wizard]

7. There are Russian Mafia in US prisons

Manafort is doomed. Putin paid for his services, and now he's no longer an asset. Wave goodbye Paul.

10. I believe that ultimately Trump will pay too

He'll lose everything by the time this is over, including his children's inheritances.
He'll die in debt and his children will have to work to pay off debts.

12. Which actually means that the Russian State Mafia, is paying for it's own beheading...

Manafort just happens to be the one cashing the check for Mueller (because the RSM is where manaforts cash came from in the first place).

This is fun, I LIKE this game!

[Mr. Ected]

6. Wall them up! Wall them up!

And we'll let Manafort pay for it.

[reflection]

8. That's good stuff.

And I'd add, if it did cost anything, whatever the amount, it is dwarfed by what we stand to lose without it. What price for truth and independence from enemies foreign and domestic?

9. Next Trump Whine

"It's a moneymaking operation!"

Trump's envious Bob Mueller is a better businessman than he is.

11. Stealing this idea. Well said.
