Can't Believe This Happened – CNN Admits "Mueller's Investigation of Trump is Going
Too Far!"
CNN's legal commentator Matthew Whitaker published an op-ed this Sunday.
In it, the ex-US Attorney explains how the focus of the investigation of Special Counsel
Robert Mueller is really expanded.
This started as an investigation of conspired Russian meddling in the last presidential
race of 2016.
But now, it expanded to President Trump's finances.
Even though CNN informs that the opinion of this editorial does not ultimately equal the
one of the network, if none of the people in CNN agreed with this, it would definitely
not be published.
CNN reported:
The President is absolutely correct.
Mueller has come up to a red line in the Russia 2016 election-meddling investigation that
he is dangerously close to crossing.
According to a CNN article, Mueller's investigators could be looking into financial records relating
to the Trump Organization that are unrelated to the 2016 election.
According to these reports, "sources described an investigation that has widened to focus
on possible financial crimes, some unconnected to the 2016 election."
The piece goes on to cite law enforcement sources who say non-Russia-related leads that
"involve Trump associates" are being referred to the special counsel "to encourage subjects
of the investigation to cooperate."
This information is deeply concerning to me.
It does not take a lawyer or even a former federal prosecutor like myself to conclude
that investigating Donald Trump's finances or his family's finances falls completely
outside of the realm of his 2016 campaign and allegations that the campaign coordinated
with the Russian government or anyone else.
That goes beyond the scope of the appointment of the special counsel.
In fact, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein's letter appointing special counsel Robert Mueller
does not give Mueller broad, far-reaching powers in this investigation.
He is only authorized to investigate matters that involved any potential links to and coordination
between two entities — the Trump campaign and the Russian government.
People are wrongly pointing to, and taking out of context, the phrase "any matters
that arose or may arise directly from the investigation" to characterize special counsel's
authority as broad.
The word "investigation" is clearly defined directly preceding it in the same sentence
specifically as coordination between individuals associated with the campaign of Donald Trump
and Russia.
The Trump Organization's business dealings are plainly not within the scope of the investigation,
nor should they be.
Whitaker even calls on Rosenstein to consider reining in Mueller.

The Trump Organization's business dealings are plainly not within the scope of the investigation,
nor should they be.
If he were to continue to investigate the financial relationships without a broadened
scope in his appointment, then this would raise serious concerns that the special counsel's
investigation was a mere witch hunt.
If Mueller is indeed going down this path, Rosenstein should act to ensure the investigation
is within its jurisdiction and within the authority of the original directive.
Lately, the Washington Post had a stunning report, named "The Quest to Prove Collusion
is Crumbling."
In this report, the network basically agreed on the fact that the Whole Russian interference
narrative is "te story that never was'.Almost as stunning as the piece itself, the story
was ignored by both the main stream media and independent media.
Almost as stunning as the piece itself, the story was ignored by both the main stream
media and independent media.
Ed Rogers penned this piece following Jared Kushner's testimony.
Rogers said, instead of igniting the Russian collusion narrative, Jared Kusner's testimony
stifled it, causing the media to "quietly back out of the room unnoticed".
Excerpts from Rogers' WaPo op-ed:
While everyone is fixated on President Trump's unbecoming and inexplicable assault on Attorney
General Jeff Sessions, the media has been trying to sneak away from the "Russian collusion"
story.
That's right.
For all the breathless hype, the on-air furrowed brows and the not-so-veiled hopes that this
could be Watergate, Jared Kushner's statement and testimony before Congress have made Democrats
and many in the media come to the realization that the collusion they were counting on just
isn't there.
As the date of the Kushner testimony approached, the media thought it was going to advance
and refresh the story.
But Kushner's clear, precise and convincing account of what really occurred during the
campaign and after the election has left many of President Trump's loudest enemies trying
to quietly back out of the room unnoticed.
Cable news airtime and in-print word count dedicated to the nonexistent collusion story
appear to be dwindling.
Democrats and their allies in the media seem less eager to talk about it, and when they
do, they say something to the effect of "but, but, but … Kushner didn't answer every
question … He wasn't under oath … There are still more witnesses … What about this
or that new gadfly?"
They are stammering.
And it hasn't taken long for news producers and editors to realize that the story is fading.
At last, the story that never was is not happening.
Of course, there was no Russian collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russians
during the 2016 election.
The entire hoax was made up out of thin air and the fake news media has talked about it
round the clock in order to keep the story alive.
The Russian hoax always was and always will be a way for the Democrats to deflect from
their many crimes.
