Trump Aides, Seeking Leverage, Investigate Mueller’s Investigators
By MICHAEL S. SCHMIDT, MAGGIE HABERMAN and MATT APUZZOJULY 20, 2017

WASHINGTON — President Trump’s lawyers and aides are scouring the professional and political backgrounds of investigators hired by the special counsel Robert S. Mueller III, looking for conflicts of interest they could use to discredit the investigation — or even build a case to fire Mr. Mueller or get some members of his team recused, according to three people with knowledge of the research effort.

The effort to investigate the investigators is another sign of a looming showdown between Mr. Trump and Mr. Mueller, who has assembled a team of high-powered prosecutors and agents to examine whether any of Mr. Trump’s advisers aided Russia’s campaign to disrupt last year’s presidential election.

1. Hey guys! I found something for you to use. Leverage!

I heard that Bob Mueller forgot to return a library book for three days 15 years ago.

Run with it!

3. Fox and twits this morning

All investigators and staff of Mueller are Hillary or Democratic supporters which is so UNFAIR to the president.

6. Looking for dirt....

Mueller has surely got files full of stuff by now on each one of them. Trump is trying to light a fire which in the end will burn him to a crisp.
