Federal judge rightly rebukes Mueller for questionable tactics

Dershowitz is right about this. This could easily end up hurting Mueller's reputation to a good extent and even tarnish the investigation.

If he had some sort of angle to go at then yes, but this is reaching in the current case.

The way I see it, Mueller is heading down the path Comey went. Remember when people thought Comey was respectable? He's just not seen in that same light anymore. We'll see how things play out with Mueller.

I don't think it will get that far. Then again, Comey had to go and reopen the investigation into the Email fiasco. All because of Hillary's associate and her pedophile husband. A move that he will probably regret for rest of the foreseeable future.

Mueller has yet to open that box once and then horrifyingly revisit it to his own detriment. Though if this overreach actually blows up in his face. It could eventually turn into that near the end.

I for one think he is going to get the microphone placed in front of him and go on a rant when back into a corner. Shooting the rails in what could only be exclaimed as "Alex Jones" levels of cringe...

But you know, wishful thinking and all. It certainly would be entertaining in the very least.

Mueller knows what he's doing.

You think he won't corroborate anything Manafort tells him before he cuts Manafort a deal?

I'm just speculating but it's my guess that Rick Gates has made allegations against the president, and the Manafort pressure is to try and corroborate that.

Kinda like how Starr went after Susan McDougal to corroborate her ex-husbands allegations.

What I think is going to happen is Mueller isn't going to find anything on Trump, Democrats will look for someone to scapegoat, and they blame Mueller for over-promising what he had. We'll see, though. There are ways for Mueller to save his reputation yet.

Al Capone went down for tax evasion.

Was he the victim of prosecutorial misconduct?

So Trump is comparable to Capone. You people are pathetically in love with big government

Rosenstein gave Mueller a broad mandate. As far as I know Mueller is operating within that mandate.

Pretty much. I suspect that we'll see a lot more attempts at deflection as the investigation proceeds.

That has literally nothing to do with the US elections in 2016.

So when Trump's campaign manager has taken millions from the Russians and has developed a relationship with the Kremlin over years it has nothing to do with the Russians being involved in helping Trump win the election? Of course it does. Why do you think Manafort was chosen as Campaign manager when any sort of vetting would have disclosed his Russian ties?

You are trying to make my comment into something it wasn't. Manafort's Ukraine dealings from over a decade ago have nothing to do with Russia failing to influence the 2016 US elections in any significant way.

If Manafort's past dealings and experience had nothing to do with the 2016 election...then why did Trump hire him to be his campaign manager?

Because he is a person that has experience running campaigns, and Trump needed someone with experience. Manafort was not Trump's first choice, and he only lasted a couple of weeks as campaign manager.

Agreed, Mueller had a pretty good reputation before all of this started and even though he had a history of stepping on toes. Said reputation was leagues better then anyone I have seen get dragged into the democrats schemes.

I fully expect them to throw him under the bus, given the first sign of failure on their part.
