Mueller

Mueller has served the United States with honor and integrity. Sadly so many attacked Mueller after Barr's fantasy report, called Mueller a Repuke and a traitor.

Fact is Mueller is a patriot that proves there is a least one Republican that sought the truth and gave Congress a road map to find for obstruction of justice. If you don't think that is true then you haven't been listening.

Thank you Mr. Mueller. You, sir are a Patriot



A Republican, one of the few that loves his country over partisan politics.

Fact:

Mueller Gave Up Millions From Big Name Clients to Lead Russia Probe

http://fortune.com/2017/08/09/robert-mueller-left-millions-salary-speeches-lead-russia-probe/

Mueller, a former FBI chief named in May as special counsel to lead the federal probe, made about $3.5 million at the WilmerHale law firm from March 2014 through May of this year, according to his financial disclosure form released by the Justice Department. The document also shows Mueller’s income from speeches, including $52,000 for appearing before Citigroup Inc.’s Mexican unit known as Banamex and $40,000 to address Citibank in Rye Brook, New York.

snip

To build up the team examining whether President Donald Trump or any of his associates colluded with Russia to interfere in the election or committed any other crimes, Mueller hired several colleagues from WilmerHale, including James Quarles, who listed income of about $5.9 million; Jeannie Rhee, who cited income of about $2 million; and Aaron Zebley, who listed income of about $1.4 million.

snip

The Justice Department hasn’t released information on the budget for Mueller’s investigation. Officials will decide how much to disclose after the special counsel submits a report on his spending that’s due by Sept. 30. Even high-ranking government prosecutors earn far less than those at prestigious law firms, although Mueller and his deputies eventually will be able to return to private practice.

...however I do believe he's a patriot and he wanted to throw a spotlight on some terrible wrongs. Now that Mueller has retired I hope he can relax and enjoy his grandchildren. Maybe he'll get around to writing a book, which I would buy in a heartbeat.

Thank you Robert Mueller, for a job well done!

Trump tried to take him down mouthing off for the cameras. Cursing him in private.

Mueller quietly, professionally did his job.

Thank you Mr. Mueller. He is a hero.

the Barr explaining the Mueller report came out.

I just shook my head.. I knew all they had to do was hold on with a little patience until they saw the entire Mueller report.

Ferret's take..

I confess I'm still giggling that Team Treason ever imagined that this would be a good day for them, that Barr's silly little stunt would enable them to control the narrative, that their problems are firmly behind them now. It's going to be an awful lot of fun watching them slowly figure out just how wrong they are. If you'll excuse me, I have to make sure my beer fridge is adequately stocked for the show.

I also think Barr et al shut the investigation down earlier than Mueller would've like.

We're not even halfway there yet. Give it time. Mueller will be vindicated, and the continued slime of Trump in the form of AG Barr, will be exposed for what it is.

That was true for the first 15 years this site existed and it doesn't change just because the Orange Turd is in office. The worship of some Repukes over the last few years for something as minor as having a different favorite color than Drumpf makes ME want to puke.

McCain = Evil
All Bushes = Evil
Mueller = Evil
Anyone who even thinks of voting Republican = Evil enabler.

You don't want to be evil, vote for our party's candidate. Period.
