I just posted what he did with whitey Bulger and you completely avoided that and played the martyr.
You are a tool.

Self-inflicted my arse. This "controversy" was totally fabricated by Obama, Hillary/DNC, the criminal elements of the FBI and CIA. The entire bunch needs to be rounded up and stood before a firing squad for the failed coup attempt. After a fair trial, of course.

Gravano only flipped because Gotti was going to have him killed. Mueller failed to flip him until his life was at risk.
Exactly!
It was only after the FBI played tapes of Gotti running his mouth about Gravano that he decided to flip.

Because we are waisting millions of dollars on an investigation that has yielded no "Earth shattering" results and increasingly seems to be a political tool used to keep the Administration mired in controversy for as long as possible.

Does your argument for mueller apply to Jon McCain?

First of all, I hate all Special Counsels. The FBI and DOJ (USA's) are fully capable of handling an investigation like this....if everyone is truly serious about Russian interference of which the Democrats and press are not.
2) By giving Mueller so broad a mandate into looking into any crimes that may arise during the investigation, you give Mueller what amounts to extra Constitutional powers and make him into a de facto 4th Branch of government. He indicts Manafort on an issue that really has absolutely zero to do with the election and everything to do wih possible tax evasion stemming from activities greater than 4 years ago. Tax evasion charges are handled everyday by USA's
3) All Mueller is doing is scaring people and they are giving him what amounts to inaccurate dates on meetings with Russian nationals (or Maltese professors in the case of PapaD) in situations that he knows are not illegal. It was not illegal for Flynn to start setting up back channels during the transition, nor was it for Prince to speak to a Russian Oligarch in the Seychelles as part of the activity as a conduit. He's just looking for skins to justify his salary.
Case in point Fitzgerald and the Scooter Libby investigation. Fitzgerald KNEW that Libby was not the guy who leaked the info on the first day of his investigation, but then took it upon himself to expand the investigation in a mandate that he was not initially given.
Please don't think that career prosecutors/bureaucrats don't have ego's. In my experience, guys like Mueller have HUGE egos and it most certainly drives them.

....and getting Bruce Cutler, Gotti's attorney, disqualified, under the pretense that he may know of the illegal activities....the truth is, the FBI and the USA could not stand Cutler because he had beaten them twice.

Unlike Democrats who at least don't claim to have any principles other than getting elected....and staying elected.

Robert Mueller III, is what one consider an American patriot. High school athlete, Princeton graduate. Volunteered for the Vietnam war, takes AK-47 bullet to the thigh, receives Purple Heart. Goes on to serve professional career where he takes down John Gotti...is selected by the US Senate in a vote of 98-0 to become the head of the FBI on Sept 4, 2011. Goes on to head the 9/11 report.
Move forward 15 years, a millionaire real estate agent / game show host becomes Pres (R) embroiled in self-inflicted controversy. The USA again calls on the service of Mr Mueller to investigate how the USSR infiltrated the 2016 election process.
Just weird how 76% of Republicans find Bob Mueller untrustworthy. They find an 71 yo con artist, five time draft dodger more trust worthy because he’s the POTUS and has an (R) by his name. Let the upvotes begin.
This isn't specific to Bob Mueller (who I know and have respect for myself) but a general statement.
Graduating from an ivy league college, being a military officer, receiving a purple heart, and or being a career law enforcement officer does not make you a better person than anyone else, nor does it make you immune from complaints about your decision making.

Hell, it indirectly led to Gotti since the indictment of Castellano is a major reason Gotti decided to whack him.
Yep, but the steaks at Sparks Steakhouse are to die for!!!!!
They really KILL it there!!!
Couldn't resist
But someone could point out how Mueller destroyed an innocent man's life (Hatfill) in the Anthrax investigation....and he had nothing, zero evidence when all was said and done, not even circumstantial.....he should have had his law license pulled for it.
