Just How Balanced Is Mueller's Investigative Team?

[Arcangl86]

Doesn't Mueller's team include a lot of people who specialize in white collar crime? It makes sense to me that those people would be more likely to be Democrats then Republicans.

How, exactly? No one in their right mind thinks Clinton was in any way involved with Russian interference in the election.
.

I find that claim as questionable as it is unsubstantiated. But even were it the case that no one in their right mind suspected Clinton of yet another crime that she did not intend to commit, the conflict of interest lies not only with their reluctance to investigate Clinton's involvement with Russian propaganda funneled through an ex British spy and used to acquire a FISA warrant but more chiefly with the political partisanship of the prosecutors having donated to one campaign involved in the election. They are surely seen by anyone not wearing blinders as compromised in their ability to act objectively when it comes not only to the candidate of their choice but even more so to the candidate they were so opposed to that they spent their hard earned money trying to make sure he was not elected.

Why would that make sense?

I noticed you didn't offer up any names as examples to the contrary.

Probably because they're smart enough to identify fake news when they see it.

Sure, that makes sense and I believe you are correct. Mueller's team is filled with very aggressive prosecutors and some folks feel, too aggressive. Some of their past work, was overturned by higher courts after reviewing the cases for this very reason.

The other thing is this, special prosecutors have a basic motivation to substantiate their appointment, which tends to lead to this type of aggression.

How many special counsel lawyers have donated to Democrats?

Sean Duffy?? No wonder. Reality TV folks have to stick together.

An opinion piece from American Stinker? lol

I wouldn't be afraid to say all politicians feel that way about the voters, so how do you feel about that?

Since my comment was about American Stinker, and neither you nor me, I have no feelings about that one way or the other.

I'm glad Mueller doesn't hire folks like that Omarosa lady. She went straight from Trump's White House to another tacky reality show.

As of tonight, she's still in the Big Brother House.

Figures. Shoot, have to say I think most of Trump's staff are better off there than in the White House. I think Trump & the rest of the world would be better off if his job was on that show he used to host with his kids.

Even if the FBI investigators were composed of all the small businessmen Trump stiffed when his real estate projects went bankrupt, his 19 sexual abuse accusers, and the people he defrauded through Trump University, they would still have to present evidence that would pass muster with a grand jury.

And actually, compared to the "dream team" of Mueller investigators I just fantasized about, a few Democratic lawyers don't seem bad at all.
