You could be forgiven for having a difficult time following all the players in the continuing saga that has engulfed Congressional committees, the president, the FBI, the NSA, Russia, the Clintons, former FBI Director Comey, WikiLeaks, the media, and who know how many others. The old baseball adage fits: “You can’t tell the players without a scorecard.”
Continuing the baseball metaphor, part of the problem is that it’s not entirely clear who is on whose team. Or for that matter, it’s not clear how many teams there are.
When one sits down to write a piece about this turmoil, one question that comes to mind is how much do potential readers already know, and how much time should be spent rehearsing information in an attempt to help clarify things rather than to obfuscate — something our politicians do well enough anyway.
So when we begin a piece with the assertion that Special Counsel Mueller might be accused of doing the very thing former FBI Director Comey accused President Trump of doing, do your eyes just glaze over, or is this all crystal clear to you?
We’ll try to straighten this out and clarify things for you, as well as hopefully explaining why this is important on page two.
He needs to go.
The dems are failing us. We wouldn’t have these stupid endless investigations if they would quit grasping at straws. There is far more corruption and collusion in the dem party than there is in the President’s cabinet.

Obama was never investigated by a Special Counsel. Nor was he investigated by a Special Commission that the Republican Congress could have convened at any time.
Hillary is not under FBI investigation. She was, but no prosecutable activities were discovered.
Trump is being investigated by Mueller and the FBI as well as by numerous congressional committees.His tax returns and business dealings for many years are now being examined for Russian connections. His Son is now being examined for his Russia
communications. Trump is further being investigated by Special Counsel for Obstruction of Justice..
Oh that’s right, you’re a Trumper. You reject facts and accept Trump’s lies as reality.
Shelley,
Trump is responsible for his own actions. When you do what he did, investigations are the inevitable result. That is the way our legal system and our system of checks and balances function. Even the Republican controlled congress had no choice to convene their investigations and even Trump’s own DOJ had no choice but to name a Special Counsel.
6 months, 6. That’s all , and you say he’s a failure. Sure hope those in your life give you a better chance
Add 12 months to that.
In June of 2016, Candidate Trump made a series of fatal decisions and initiated an illegal conspiracy with Russia which doomed his Presidency from the start.
Witch hunt, distracting and undermining the will of the American people.
Worst of all paid for by taxpayers money’s.
Fire this partisan witch hunting bastard
No credibility
You need medicine
