Probing Mueller

Odd that.

Investigations start with a crime, or some offense, and investigate to find evidence of that crime, or some offense and whom the perpetrator is.

Here, as you bring to light, the alleged perpetrator is defined, and the investigation is to find any incriminating evidence against them.

Seems to me that this is an example of what a witch hunt is.

I think it's pretty obvious there was an organized attempt on the part of Russian intelligence to disrupt the 2016 elections, of which the DNC hacking was just one part. This matter was under active investigation by the FBI since July of 2016... and it would probably still be there if the President hadn't fired the FBI Director and called into question his own personal involvement in the matter.

There surely is an "Obama FBI", as well as an Obama DOJ, CIA, etc. These are agencies...during the Obama administration...that were run by his people. People who did as he directed. And believe me...Lynch, Comey, Brennan, etc...did whatever Obama wanted. They didn't oppose him one bit.

If you think otherwise, you are naive. But that's your problem. I don't care.



sigh...

I've repeatedly pointed you to evidence, yet you refuse to look at it. Again...that's your problem. I don't care.

If you want to remain ignorant, that's your choice.

I will give you one hint: http://thehill.com/hilltv/rising/40...exposing-what-fusion-gps-told-doj-about-trump

Beyond this...you are dismissed.

I'm dismissed?? Jesus... get over yourself. Either you can hold up your end of the debate or you can't and you walk away... the choice is your's.

That being said, James Comey was Deputy Attorney General in the Bush Administration, so I'd hardly call him a Democratic "shill". Was he acting on Obama's orders when he cut the feet out from Clinton in the last weeks of the campaign? I'd highly doubt it.

I don't know if you've noticed, but every time I put up a link in here, it's been to either an official document or to a direct quote from an individual. Primary source information. You've put up a disjointed, badly written opinion piece... but even so, I couldn't help but notice the following quote:

Cohen, now under investigation by federal prosecutors in New York, has hinted he may have information damaging to Trump. But special counsel Robert Mueller has signaled he's not currently interested in Cohen, letting U.S. attorneys in Manhattan take the first crack at his case.

So I'm pretty sure these "Ohr Notes" have already been dismissed by Mueller's team. It seems to me like you're trying to make hay out of nothing at all.

Except, of course, that there is no credible evidence, whatosever, of any witch hunt going on. The investigations into Trump's campaign and it's members is completely justified and is bearing quite a lot of fruit, so to speak.

I can see why some people would desperately need to avoid confronting that reality.

Did Mueller do some good in spite of the bad he did? I certainly hope so. Nevertheless, I agree with former Mayor and member of the Mass. Parole Board that Mueller should not have been appointed as head of the FBI considering his participation in the prolonged miscarriage of justice in the deliberate FBI framing of 4 innocent men for the murder of Edward Deegan, resulting in taxpayers having to fork over more than $100 to the men and families of those who were deliberately framed.

Russian, criminal meddling (hacking, conspiracy, etc.) in the election was the FBI investigation.
Trump's erratic Russia behavior culminating with firing Comey, triggered concerns for the criminal act of obstructing that investigation, which resulted in special counsel...by Trump's own deputy AG.

Looks like crimes are central to every aspect of it. And we have the indictments to prove it.

The indictments we have are process crimes, and not related specifically to the campaign nor the campaigns alleged Russian collusion (yet to be proven).

Haven't the indictments been referred to the appropriate US attorneys rather than handled by Mueller's team? The exception being Manafort, but then Manafort has a fued with Oleg Deripaska (Putin connected Russian oligarch), probably has dirt on him, and is being silenced by Mueller's cleaning up after the other Russian collusion participants in high office in the Obama administration.

You see, Mueller has a record of meeting and collaborated with at least one Russian Oligarch.

Felonies. Obama had zero felony indictments in 8 years in his administration. We need a black democrat to clean the swamp apparently, Trump's corrupting the **** out of it.

Such indictments are used to elicit cooperation, as is standard DOJ procedure for large white collar crime conspiracies. They have very explicit avoided any and all indictments and even too much discussion of the U.S.-side of the investigation as related to things like conspiracy, that is all under wraps. Nunes, the other traitor, is drying to pry it out, with no success.

You saw this in the Manafort trial, when Trump/Mueller came up they approached the bench, and the judge stopped that line of questioning and they continued on a different line.

The FBI had nearly 30 years of serious corruption issues before, during, and after Mueller was Assistant Mass. Dist. Attorney.

I suppose it would be impossible for the Russian intelligence to hack into the DNC, doctor the e-mails however they want and then feed it to Wikileaks via a cut-out, wouldn't it? After all, Julian Assange is the all-knowing keeper of the light... he'd see through something like that in a heartbeat.

Yesssirreee Marke... the prisons are all filled with innocent men. Don't believe me? Just go ask them for yourself. If you're a prisoner in a Federal prison, you've got plenty of time to research and write legal opinions protesting your innocence. And there are lawyers that will visit you to bolster your case.

Assistant DA's, though, kind of have their hands full dealing with the crimes occurring in the present to spend a whole lot of time re-visiting the closed ones from the past. I know, it sucks, but that's just how it is. Only 24 hours in the day and all of that.

Edward Deegan was murdered by mob figures connected to the FBI in 1965. The FBI framed 4 members of a mob family that were competitors with the White Hill Gang which included Whitey Bulger (brother of Mass. Democrat power figure, William Bulger) and Stephen Flemmi," and were protected by FBI agent John Connolly, who later went to prison for his paert in the crimes. The movie "Black Mass" was loosely taken from the book which gave details of the criminal activities of murderous mob figures protected by the FBI while they enlarged their ongoing criminal enterprise. The movie "The Departed" was also loosely fashioned after certain facts in the FBI corruption in Boston in the 1970s and 1980s.

The full extent of the facts did not come out until after John Durham was named special prosecutor by Janet Reno in 1999 to finally look into the allegations of corruption that had been swirling around the FBI Boston office for more than 30 years.

Mueller either never investigated the corruption rumors while at Boston, or he was corrupted himself, explaining why he never filed charges to deal with the corruption. That is why former Mayor Albano testified he thought Mueller unfit to be FBI Director.

And which interested parties where at the heads of these intelligence agencies?
The claim was that all 17 US intelligence agencies claimed it was the Russians.

MYTH:
“We have 17 intelligence agencies that know — with great certitude — that [the DNC hacking] was done by the Russians [to help Trump],” House Intelligence Committee member Rep. Jackie Speier (D-Calif.) recently said, echoing AP, CNN, The New York Times, NBC and CBS, among others.

FACT:
The Obama administration’s Jan. 6 assessment reflected the views of just three intelligence agencies — and one of them, the NSA, which captures Russian signals, expressed only “moderate confidence” in the conclusion. The others, the CIA and FBI, cautioned their judgment “might be wrong.”

The FBI and CIA reached their conclusion based on the forensic analysis of a private contractor who was hired by the DNC to examine its hacked e-mail server. “We didn’t get direct access [to the server],” former FBI Director James Comey testified.
https://nypost.com/2017/11/19/here-are-some-of-the-biggest-myths-of-the-russian-collusion-story/

CrowdStrike is the sole source of this claim, with their June 2016 report, “Bears in the Midst: Intrusion into the Democratic National Committee” being the basis of the DNC’s Russian hacking allegations.

Here are five key points about CrowdStrike that the mainstream media is ignoring:

1. Obama Appoints CrowdStrike Officer To Admin Post Two Months Before June 2016 Report On Russia Hacking DNC

2. The FBI Never Looked At The DNC’s Servers — Only CrowdStrike Did

3. Comey Contradicted The DNC’s Story On The FBI Asking To See The Server

4. CrowdStrike Co-Founder Is Fellow On Russia Hawk Group, Has Connections To George Soros, Ukrainian Billionaire

5. CrowdStrike Is Funded By Clinton-Loving Google $$

Seems the claims were a bit of an over statement for one, and Crowd Strike's conclusions are suspect due to their connections and relationships, and perhaps should not to taken at face value, at least until verified. Has there been another forensic examination of the servers directly beyond Crowd Strike? Didn't think so.

I suppose it would be impossible for the Russian intelligence to hack into the DNC, doctor the e-mails however they want and then feed it to Wikileaks via a cut-out, wouldn't it? After all, Julian Assange is the all-knowing keeper of the light... he'd see through something like that in a heartbeat.

Now how many people would trust WikiLeaks in the future if that's what they did? It'd kill their model, and they'd cease to exist. You're not making any sense, I think. Even before the 'Russian Collusion' meme was ginned up, Assange was asserting that the DNC info didn't come from the Russians.

The Russians must be laughing their heads off at how gullible you people are. Tell you something you want to hear and you'll ride it to hell and back for them.

I rather doubt that the Russians are laughing in the least, given the number of sanctions, and their impact, that have been levied on them.

Their oligarchs and their economy are suffering (or at least not doing as well as they might), not only from the economic sanctions but also from the pushing that Trump's been doing on NATO and the EU to limit or even sever the economic ties to Russia.

Given the severity of the blow back on Russia does it sound like meddling in the US presidential elections, at least to the level claimed, is in their best interests? For what? Some chaos in the US? Is that sufficiently an advancement of their interests enough a benefit to warrant that blow back they've been saddled with? Doesn't seem to have worked out to their advantage.

To be perfectly frank with you, I don't see why anyone has ever trusted a damn thing posted by Wikileaks. Here's a huge batch of Government documents... stolen by some anonymous source... just for you. And people eat it up. They don't know where it came from, how it may have been altered, or what the motives are for leaking them. All disbelief gets thrown out the window... if it's on the internet, it must be true. *L*

If you take anything on Wikileaks at face value, then you're probably one of those people who believe Ed Snowdon moved to Russia for the weather, or that Melania married for love. Can't you see how perfectly suited the whole Wikileaks concept is for intelligence operations? They can steal any piece of information, adapt it to suit their goals, and then have a cut-out hand it to Assange. Then it gets sheep-dipped on Wikileaks and gobbled up by millions of conspiracy theorists around the world as the Gospel truth.

To be perfectly honest, I don't know if Assange is a willing participant in the Russian effort or not... it could be a trusted source that he's worked with for years, who, in reality, is a Russian oprative. Could be Snowden himself. Who knows? What I do know is that there is no culpable chain of evidence for anything that comes from Wikileaks, and therefore all of it is suspect. It's no different than gossip.

What have the Russians gained? Well, let's see... they've managed to help elect a President seemingly intent on wrecking the NATO alliance. Who has damaged relations with China, and who seems intent on dramatically reducing America's role in the world, both militarily and economically. I'd have to say that leaves a pretty big vacuum for Russian expansionist ambitions to fill, wouldn't you?

The reason Janet Reno appointed John Durham special prosecutor in 1999 to investigate the ongoing crimes in the Boston FBI was because rumors had persisted for decades about the horrible crimes committed there with the full knowledge of J. Edgar Hoover and other FBI officials. If Mueller knew nothing about rumors of major government corruption in his city all those years then he was either corrupt himself or incompetent.

No. His focus was on the corruption of the FBI at the highest levels in Boston and even included J. Edgar Hoover. This is from Congressional testimony from the House Committee On Government Reform, May 3, December 13, 2001; and February 6, 2002:

...Today's hearing is going to focus on an injustice done by the FBI that went on for nearly 30 years. ...

The reason Joe Salvati went to prison was because an FBI informant lied about him which is unthinkable. But the reason he stayed in jail was because the FBI agents knew their informant lied and they covered it up, and that's much worse. Documents we've received show that this case was being followed at the highest levels of the FBI in Washington. J. Edgar Hoover was kept informed on a regular basis.

That is FBI corruption at the highest level and now we have seen it again in Comey, McCabe, Strzok and others. This is what Congressman Christopher Shays said in the Congressional hearing:

So profound an injustice is almost unimaginable. But it takes very little imagination to reconstruct the sordid saga of official malfeasance, obstruction, brutality and corruption that brings us here this morning. In this tragic tale ends justified means, cascading down a legal and ethical spiral until both the ends and means became utterly unjust. ...

Chairman Dan Burton said on the record: The mere fact that they were the FBI and those are the type of comments that they would make, it was all done with a purpose in mind so the press that is here today would not get involved with the stories. They didn't want anyone investigating the investigators.

How eerily similar is that to the current "investigation" and media blindness ongoing right now in the Mueller 'investigation?'

J. Edgar Hoover had been dead for over a decade before Mueller became a Federal Prosecutor.

Look... whatever your personal impressions are of Mueller and the USDA's Office in Massachusetts, they must have done something right, because his boss got promoted to Asst. AG for the Criminal Division during Reagan's Second Term, and Mueller took over his position on an interim basis. A couple of years later, Mueller was promoted to the same job under Bush, Sr.
