Re: Bombshell?

"after a year of investigation this is the best they could come up with"

Well, Mueller had to come up with "something, dammit!" based on a year and a few million dollars' worth of taxpayer money... because an (apparent) witch-hunt against Trump would've ultimately been political suicide.

Still, I'm glad this much came out of it. OK we have some bank fraud charges now "following the money" and a handful of Russian names to go along with it. OK it takes time to make the case on this, and so you could say that the investigators HAVE "been busy", and it's NOT "just political" and that's the image we're supposed to see. Meanwhile FBI and DOJ are under the scrutinizing eye of Congress' oversight committee.

It's best to be well behaved when the focus of scrutiny is on your departments. And I don't mind. I think it's totally fair that Mueller has done this. Now, can he wrap up and finish and stop wasting spending MORE taxpayer money?
