OPINION:
The $25-million Mueller report showing no wrongdoing in the phony FISA warrant is concluded — yet the Democrats still want President Trump’s head on a pike.
Most people in this country ignored how the issue started. It was Hillary Clinton and her ilk, with support from then FBI Director James Comey, that instigated the investigation. The underhanded, biased news media took it as gospel and began badgering the president daily.
I believe Mrs. Clinton and those in the top positions at the Department of Justice and the FBI colluded to crucify our president with false accusations and innuendo.
An old ploy of the Democrats is accusing foes of the crimes they commit themselves. Now they are threatening more investigations costing the taxpayer who knows how much in order to distract and cover up the crimes committed by their counterparts. A few misdeeds committed by Hillary Clinton: Obstruction of justice by destroying subpoenaed emails on her illegal server, collecting money from Russia for her private foundation, selling our uranium to the Russian enemy and conspiring with a British foreign agent who made up the false report to get the FISA warrant.
As for Mr. Mueller’s investigation, I can’t help but be reminded of the “fruit of the poisonous tree” doctrine, which refers to instances in which evidence from an illegal source is used against someone in an investigation. This whole issue started with an illegal act by Mr. Comey, who knowingly stated that the information in the FISA warrant was not verifiable. Hence, no warrant, no prosecutions.
