Maybe he will uncover the shocking truth behind those "seedy ties to Russia"? :o
DOJ Appoints Special Prosecutor To Investigate Trump Campaign’s Russia Ties
The decision is not a “finding that crimes have been committed,” Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein stressed.
By Ryan J. Reilly , Lydia O’Connor
WASHINGTON ― Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein has appointed former FBI Director Robert Mueller to serve as special prosecutor overseeing the investigation into Russian influence in the 2016 presidential election.
In a statement, Rosenstein stressed that his decision “is not a finding that crimes have been committed or that any prosecution is warranted.” But he said he’d determined “based upon the unique circumstances, the public interest requires me to place this investigation under the authority of a person who exercises a degree of independence from the normal chain of command.”
In an order dated May 17, Rosenstein wrote Mueller, as special counsel, will conduct an investigation into “any links and/or coordination between the Russian government and individuals associated with the campaign of President Donald Trump,” along with “any matters that arose or may arise directly from the investigation.”
The White House reportedly found out about the appointment with less than an hour’s notice.

Robert Mueller led the FBI for 12 years.
Under law, Mueller will have all the authority of a U.S. attorney to conduct his investigation. He will also be able to choose members of his team and request a budget from the Justice Department.
If he chooses, Mueller could keep the FBI agents currently working on the Russia investigation. It’s not clear where Mueller will be working from, but the Justice Department said Mueller would be stepping down from his job at the law firm WilmerHale.
Rosenstein said it was necessary to appoint Mueller so the American people will have “full confidence” in the outcome of the investigation.
“Our nation is grounded on the rule of law, and the public must be assured that the government officials administer the law fairly,” Rosenstein said. “Special Counsel Mueller will have all the appropriate resources to conduct a thorough and complete investigation, and I am confident that he will follow the facts, apply the law, and reach a just result.”
Democrats had pushed hard for a special counsel appointment after Trump fired FBI Director James Comey last week.
On Tuesday evening, a bombshell New York Times report said Trump had asked Comey, who had been leading the probe into Russia’s possible influence in the election, to end the FBI’s investigation of former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn. In February, Flynn was forced to resign from his post, after it was revealed he had discussed sanctions against Russia with the country’s ambassador to the U.S. prior to Trump’s inauguration.
The previous evening, The Washington Post published reports that Trump had disclosed “highly classified information” during a meeting with Russian officials, sparking swift criticism from both sides of the aisle.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions recused himself in March from Russia matters after he failed to disclose during his confirmation hearing he had met with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak.

don't forget that there were Republicans that wanted this too (you know, the handfull who actually put their loyatly to their country and the Constitution above their loyalty to the party.)
Also very much laughing at Repubs who caution against rushing to judgement. I don't recall them saying that about Hillary and her email or Benghazi

Actually you are describing all of the people suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome. Never in my life have I seen anything like this. The amount of BS Democrats and the MSM are peddling is staggering. Outright dishonesty. Wacky conspiracy theories. Fascism. Concerted effort to destroy Trump.
This crap didn't work during the election. It's not going to work now, in 2018, or in 2020. Democrats are really losing the American voter. Their only saving grace is that Republicans in DC suck.
