4 thoughts on “Mueller’s Appointment”

  2. I’m not going to read the paper, however the abstract is focused on Mueller but could also be read as any special counsel being unconstitutional.

    I don’t know if it the position is unconstitutional but I do know that its down right dirty to appoint someone who was a participant in the Obama administrations abuse of powers to then investigate Obama’s enemy based on the illegal machinations of Comey, with no underlying crime, and with perfect knowledge that the conspiracy theory of Trump/Russian collusion never happened.

    People forget that when Trump says he was “wiretaped” or that he was spied on that he has access to all the information about what those agencies were doing. But! Who else knows what those agencies were doing? Comey, Clapper, Obama, Brennan, ect. They knew everything the Trump campaign did in real time because they were spying on the Trump campaign through every method possible.

    They found nothing. Buried deep in some of these articles is the mention that they found nothing with the human spying and with the NSA spying. So when Mueller, Comey, Clapper, and other Obama officials press to keep the investigation going, they are doing so with the perfect knowledge that there was no collusion.

    That Mueller knows nothing happened, and either before or soon after he got the job, and continues to “investigate shows that he is just as corrupt as his coworkers from the Obama administration. This is really a soft coup attempt.

    1. Actually, it doesn’t apply to any special counsel. The paper points out that the amount of power given an executive official determines whether he is “inferior” or not. If not, he must be nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate.

      Ken Starr, like other special prosecutors, was given a very narrowly defined authority, as required by statute. Mueller’s authority has no bounds, and is in many respects greater than that of the President.

      Mark Levin has been commenting on this for the past few days. Levin is a constitutional lawyer who served as Chief of Staff to the Attorney General under Reagan. I would take his opinion seriously, and he agrees wholeheartedly that Mueller’s appointment was unique, and unconstitutional.

  3. I read Andy McCarthy’s columns in NRO fairly regularly. He’s been out in front of this story the whole time, and is quite persuasive to me. However, he has a troll named Jean Christophe Jouffrey whose “comments” are often longer than the article on which he comments. Too long, and I can’t often make it to the end. I have to think that Jouffrey, at least, is paid to troll McCarthy given the length and intricacy of his “comments.” But I find it astonishing that so many people think that “Trump sold out his country” to the Russians, without a shred of evidence to back it up.
