Here are the 8 dirtiest scandals of Robert Mueller that no one is talking about. 'He actively participated in the plot'

Special counsel Robert Mueller is investigating claims the Trump campaign colluded with Russia over the 2016 e******n, and possibly other topics the public may know nothing about.


He’s been on “the case” only a few months, since ex-FBI Director James Comey was fired.

But the review, going back into last year, hasn’t produced any evidence yet, and Mueller’s now putting his agenda before a grand jury.

And his investigators have gone to the White House requesting documents concerning former national security adviser Gen. Michael Flynn.

Whether his probe, which reportedly now may be encompassing Trump’s vast business empire and the financial t***sactions of his associates, produces results or not remains to be seen.

But given his record of scandals when he was the FBI chief, things don’t look promising.


It was attorney Jeffrey Marty, who at American Lookout.com, compiled a long list of scandals casting shadows over Mueller.

DIRTY COP? Here Are The Major Scandals That Took Place When Robert Mueller Was FBI Director
http://americanlookout.com/rms-dirty-cop-major-scandals-that-took-place-when-robert-mueller-was-fbi-director/

The following are a few of the better-known:

1. Some $12 billion in $100 bills was dispatched to the Iraq war theater, and vanished.
2. The IRS deliberately targeted Christian and conservative organizations to cause them trouble.
3. Fast and Furious saw the government traffic guns into the hands of Mexican cartel criminals.
4. The Department of Justice spied on AP reporters.
5. Bill Clinton and the Clinton Foundation got millions for speeches while Hillary Clinton was secretary of state.
6. Hillary Clinton dealt to Russia control of 20 percent of the uranium capacity inside the U.S.
7. Of course, there was Hillary Clinton’s private email server, and all the government records, including classified, that ended up there.
8. The HSBC money-laundering scandal.


Marty pointed out that, despite his history, Mueller was sold, when handed the job, as “ramrod straight” and “utterly incorruptible.”

“It’s always suspicious when anyone’s credibility is oversold like this, but that goes double when the same person was FBI director for 12 years.

Spanning across both the Bush and Obama administrations from 2001 to 2013.

Yet most people can’t remember anything about him,” Marty writes.

“We should remember actions he took to impartially uphold the law.

Sadly, that is not the case.


“What stands out most during then-FBI Director Mueller’s term in office is the two-tiered system of justice.

When obvious crimes and scandals involving government officials and private-sector elites were ignored or even covered up by the FBI.

What Mueller failed to do to protect our country says more than anything he did,” he continued.

“His level of aggressiveness in investigating our president is the exact inverse of how he acted when he was tasked with protecting America.”


Marty argues that Mueller is just a “dirty cop.”

Who neglected to utilize the massive resources of the FBI to investigate crimes, arrest suspects or recommend criminals be prosecuted.

“Information providing the sole justification for a war that caused the death and dismemberment of thousands of American soldiers.

Was later found to be fabricated, false, or overstated at the time it was presented to the public.

Mueller not only failed to investigate and arrest any of the perpetrators of this deception.

He actively participated in the plot,” Marty wrote.


Citing a number of scandals, Marty wrote:

“If Mueller couldn’t (or wouldn’t) stop any of these obviously corrupt and criminal practices during his own term as FBI director.

It’s hard to believe that he will conduct a fair and impartial investigation into the politically charged assumption of ‘Russian interference’ in the 2016 p**********l e******n.”

While leaks allege Mueller is examining one of the president’s 2008 Palm Beach real-estate deals, as well as the 2013 Miss Universe competition held in Moscow.

The president’s dealings as a business man are irrelevant to whether the e******n was r****d, Marty contends.

“How either one could have any influence on the 2016 p**********l e******n is almost impossible to imagine,” he added.

“What we do know is this:

Back in those same years, Mueller did nothing to money launderers, e******n-riggers, and other people who could and should have been investigated and arrested.”

At a recent rally, President Trump pushed back against Mueller’s expanding investigation.

“There were no Russians in our campaign. There never were. We didn’t win because of Russia. We won because you,” he said, pointing at the crowd.

“This is a war,” Bruce Levell, a member of the Trump re-e******n campaign’s advisory board, told the Washington Times.

“Why would we stop talking to the American people?

That is the best thing you can do: Keep talking to your base.

And guess what?

The base is growing.”


Mueller’s decisions to hire numerous Democratic Party donors and lawyers for his team.

His close relationship with the fired Comey and his scouring for evidence that goes beyond the Russia matter are bolstering the president’s claim that the Russia probe is just a partisan “witch hunt.”


Rich Lowry, editor of the National Review and one of the key figures of the Never-Trump movement.

Told Fox News that Mueller’s use of malfeasance he may discover beyond the purview of Russia could ultimately backfire on the special counsel.

“The deputy attorney general.

I think he may have made a really momentous mistake in not being more specific in that initial charge to Mueller about what exact –

What specific crimes he should be investigating.

And make Mueller come back and be very public about what new crimes he may be investigating,” Lowry said Sunday.

“There is no way to know now whether it’s a fishing expedition or not.

And Mueller might be fired on the presumption that he’s engaging in a fishing expedition that he isn’t.”


Legislative plans to block Trump from firing Mueller are unconstitutional, Lowry argued.

“I am skeptical whether those [bills] will pass, I am skeptical over whether they should pass,” he said.

“I think that they have serious constitutional problems.

You can’t have a judiciary deciding whether the head of the executive branch could fire someone who works for him or not.”


He also speculated that Mueller could be “the lead witness” in an expected impeachment effort should Trump fire him.

Conservative columnist Charlese Krauthammer, who pledged during the e******n that he was not “capable of v****g for Trump,” warned a constitutional crisis could ensue if the probe into alleged Russian interference in the e******n, which is muddying into Trump’s personal finances, results in impeachment.


“I think we are really headed into very choppy and dangerous constitutional waters.

We know what the Democrats want to do.

They want to get control of the House.

And on Day 1, they are going to start impeachment,” he said.

“As you know, I opposed the Trump candidacy.

I don’t think he is very well fit for the presidency.

But, fitness is not a reason for impeachment and removal; high crimes are.”



The continuation of Mueller’s probe, which has yet to prove collusion during the e******n, will ultimately be a “catastrophic mistake,” Krauthammer argued.

“Here we have a prosecutor looking for high crimes.

With Watergate you started with a crime and then you try to find out how it happened – here, they are a looking for a crime.

Will they find one?

I don’t know.

As of yet, I haven’t heard of one.

Collusion is unseemly, but it ain’t a crime.

So you’ve got a political establishment, mostly Democratic, but there are some Republicans who would like to see him taken out of office.

I think that would be a catastrophic mistake.”


He added: “When you think a man is unfit, you v**e against him.

But, you don’t remove him from office, and that’s where I am afraid we are headed, given the forces that are surrounding the president.”

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said it’s good to investigate foreign influence in America, but he openly wonders how that can happen without focusing on the Clinton Foundation.

“I am perfectly happy investigating foreign influence peddling in the United States and effort to shape the United States, but how so you do that without investigating the Clinton Foundation, Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton and all the people surrounding them?

I am perfectly happy to have them be tough-minded about Trump, but then they ought to be tough-minded about Mueller – they ought to be tough-minded about Comey,” Gingrich said on Fox.

“How can C
omey testify and say openly –

It was amazing the arrogance of saying openly, ‘Oh yeah, I gave this leak to a friend of mine at Columbia University so he would give it to the New York Times, so I would then get a special counsel.’

That is such a blatant public arrogance –

Abuse of power.

And yet where is the investigation?

Why isn’t Comey in the process of being investigated?”


Newt: exposes Mueller’s anti-Trump bias: – Hillary, Bill, Mueller & Comey should all be under investigation!

— Kevin W. (@kwilli1046) August 7, 2017

Talk-radio superstar Michael Savage warned of civil war should Trump be removed through the Mueller investigation, or any other.

Savage referred to a book published in 1939 called “The Day of the Locust” to describe what is happening to the American people.

When people become aware that they are being tricked by society, a violent uprising is inevitable, he explained.

“You haven’t seen what is coming in this country yet. You haven’t seen the day of the locust yet,” he said.

If civil war happens, he said, “It will start slowly –

It will be like Fort Sumter, which started with one cannon shot.

I’m warning you.

I’m warning you, all of you l*****ts who think you’re gonna steal our v**e – you’re wrong,” he said.


Network news programs spend far more time covering the claims about Russia than they do any of Americans’ actual top issues, according to analysis by the Media Research Center.

In the five weeks following the appointment of Mueller (May 17-June 20).

Networks dev**ed 353 minutes of their total 640 minutes of airtime (55 percent) to the Russia-Trump probe.

While network newscasts are inundating viewers with coverage of Democrats’ accusations about Russia and Trump.

A Bloomberg National Poll revealed that 35 percent of Americans say “health care” is the top issue today, and nearly three times the 13 percent who cite “Unemployment/Jobs.”

Only six percent cited “Relationship with Russia” as the most important issue.

When Robert Swan Mueller III deployed to Vietnam as a Marine infantry platoon commander in 1968, he surely knew it would be difficult. Mueller’s regiment, the 4th Marines, had faced bloody jungle warfare for months, and Mueller joined in them in a hellscape at the tail end of what military historians say was the service’s defining year in the war due to the size and scope of their operations.

Mueller ultimately earned two awards for valor, suffered a gunshot wound to his leg while responding to the ambush of fellow Marines and was reassigned after his injuries to serve as an aide-de-camp to the commander of the 3rd Marine Division, then-Maj. Gen. William K. Jones. In that role, Mueller excelled using a “diplomatic and congenial manner” that “significantly contributed to the rapport” Jones had with local Vietnamese officials and military officers, according to one account of Mueller’s actions.

These are among the details of Mueller’s military service outlined in documents released to The Washington Post by the National Archives. They were requested in the process of reporting a new article that details the rise of both Mueller, a former FBI director, and President Trump from similar wealthy circumstances to where they are now, as Mueller investigates potential links between Trump’s 2016 president campaign and the Russian government.


[Mueller and Trump: Born to wealth, raised to lead. Then, sharply different choices.]

Mueller’s active-duty military service, often mentioned glancingly in profiles about him, began in August 1967, when he began training at the Marine Corps Officer Candidates School at Quantico, Va. Marine Corps documents show him in the service’s system dating back to August 1966, when he joined as an enlisted private, just weeks after graduating from Princeton University.


An excerpt of Robert S. Mueller III’s military records obtained by The Washington Post.
Mueller also attended the Army’s Ranger School, a highly regarded course for combat leadership, and its Airborne School. The assignments are unusual for Marines and, typically, set aside for just a handful of the best each year.

In combat, Mueller was a member of H Company, 2nd Battalion, 4th Marines, an infantry unit assigned along dangerous Mutter’s Ridge. It was a section of Quang Tri province that overlooked the Vietnamese Demilitarized Zone that separated North Vietnam and South Vietnam.


Mueller’s unit was decorated for two battles outlined in media accounts, including The Post’s today.

In the first, he led Marines through an eight-hour battle near Mutter’s Ridge in which the his men faced fire from small arms and automatic weapons, as well as a grenade launcher. Mueller, then a second lieutenant, moved among Marine positions in the battle, directing counter-fire and setting up a defensive perimeter and then supervising the evacuation of wounded Marines, including one who died.

For his actions, Mueller would receive the Bronze Star with “V” device and this citation:


An award citation detailing then 2nd Lt. Robert S. Mueller III’s valor in Vietnam in December 1968.
Four months later, Mueller was shot in the thigh responding to the ambush of some of the Marines under his command. A description of his actions from the Navy Commendation Medal with “V” that he received:


A Navy Commendation Medal with “V” citation describes Robert S. Mueller III’s actions the day he was wounded in Vietnam.
Despite his wounds, Mueller did not return to the United States. He healed nearby and then became an aide to a senior officer, Jones, who was a towering figure in the Marines. Jones had earned a Silver Star and Navy Cross for valor as a battalion commander during the World War II battles of Tarawa and Saipan, respectively, and went on to become a regimental commander in the Korean War.


Jones regarded Mueller well, said retired Marine Gen. James L. Jones, who was William Jones’s nephew. The younger Jones did not know Mueller during the Vietnam War, but he learned about Mueller’s past service to the elder Jones in former president Barack Obama’s White House, where Mueller was the FBI director and the younger Jones was his first national security adviser.

“He was always well prepared,” the retired general said of their shared time in the White House. “He’d done his research, he’d done his homework, and he presented his viewpoints in very clear, unambiguous terms. It was very easy to see where he came from.”

After Mueller returned from Vietnam, he served briefly in a headquarters unit at Henderson Hall, a Marine Corps installation near the Pentagon. He left active-duty service in August 1970. His last rank was captain.


In 2004, the Army’s Ranger Hall of Fame inducted Mueller. The shrine recognizes Rangers who have distinguished themselves among their peers, as well as Ranger School alumni like Mueller who did not serve in a Ranger unit, but graduated from Ranger School and distinguished themselves in other ways. V****g for the board includes senior soldiers from the elite 75th Ranger Regiment, leaders from the Army’s Ranger Training Brigade, and representatives from nonprofit organizations associated with the Rangers.

The hall credited Mueller with leading the FBI “through the dramatic t***sformation required in the aftermath of the September 11th terrorist attacks.” It cited his continued leadership in t***sforming the bureau into a modern counter-terrorism agency.

“His law enforcement acumen, coupled with his valiant efforts to protect our homeland, will ensure his legacy of fearlessly leading the way,” the shrine’s leadership said, riffing on the Ranger motto: “Rangers Lead the Way!”

Hillary hasen’t hanged yet!

But the democratic cabal has been severely damaged.

Trump is winning the swamp war, Russian collusion, and FBI firings and Muller’s inability to harm trump.
