Mueller Expands Team… Hires More Prosecutors To Work On The Probe

It looks like Mueller has been told by his masters to drag this investigation out for the entirety of Trump’s time in office. Results never mattered, it is about casting a shadow over his administration.

On Thursday, Bloomberg News reported that Special Counsel Robert Mueller is tapping “additional Justice Department resources” for help with new legal battles, which will increase the costs of the more than $17 million investigation of Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential campaign.

The total cost for the probe in its first ten months has been $16.7 million, or an average of $1.67 million per month. According to that monthly average, the cost to date could now be more than $20 million.

Mueller requested the help of four more prosecutors in May and June, in addition to his 17-lawyer team.

According to Bloomberg, the additional resources could be a sign Mueller plans to pass off parts of his investigation to those prosecutors eventually. For example, Mueller handed off the investigation into Trump’s personal lawyer Michael Cohen to the Southern District of New York.

But the assignments also could be in response to legal challenges to his indictments, Bloomberg reported. Manafort, who has been charged with financial crimes that pre-dated his work on the Trump campaign, has been fighting the charges in two federal courthouses, and recently expanded his case to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia.”

The Mueller investigation has dragged on for nearly a year at a cost of tens of millions of dollars without producing a shred of evidence of collusion—the matter it was tasked with investigating in the first place. For many Americans, this investigation looks more like an attempt to destroy President Trump with baseless allegations.

Just a month ago, the Department of Justice published its financial report revealing that Robert Mueller’s months-long investigation has already cost the American taxpayer over $17 million and is expected to continue through the summer.

One thing is for sure! Robert Mueller is the MAN who is leading the DEEP STATE to destroy the People’s President. This guy can’t be trusted and should have been fired the day Obama left town. He is purely political and breaks more laws than he protects.
