Victor Davis Hanson<\/a> posted an article at National Review<\/a> today about the Mueller investigation. It’s a rather long and detailed look at the people participating in the investigation. I strongly suggest that you follow the link and read the entire article. The article includes a lot of very insightful observations.<\/p>\n

The article states:<\/p>\n

The investigation is venturing well beyond the original mandate of rooting out evidence of Russian<\/a> collusion<\/a>. Indeed, the word \u201ccollusion\u201d is now rarely invoked at all. It has given way to its successor, \u201cobstruction.\u201d The latter likely will soon beget yet another catchphrase to justify the next iteration of the investigations. <\/strong><\/p>\n

There seems far less special investigatory concern with the far more likely Russian collusion in the matters of the origins and dissemination of the Fusion GPS\/Steele dossier, and its possible role in the Obama-administration<\/a> gambit of improper or illegal surveilling, unmasking, and leaking of the names of American citizens<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

Indeed, the only remaining trajectory by which Mueller and his investigators can escape with their reputations intact is to dismiss those staff attorneys who have exhibited clear anti-Trump political sympathies, reboot the investigation, and then focus on what now seems the most likely criminal conduct: Russian and Clinton-campaign collusion in the creation of the anti-Trump Fusion GPS dossier and later possible U.S. government<\/a> participation in the dissemination of it. If such a fraudulent document was used to gain court approval to surveil Trump associates, and under such cover to unmask and leak names of private U.S. citizens \u2014 at first to warp a U.S. election, and then later to thwart the work of an incoming elected administration \u2014 then Mueller will be tasked with getting to the bottom of one of the greatest political scandals<\/a> in recent U.S. history. Indeed, his legacy may not be that he welcomed in known pro-Clinton, anti-Trump attorneys to investigate the Trump 2016<\/a> campaign where there was little likelihood of criminality, but that he ignored the most egregious case of government wrongdoing in the last half-century.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I totally agree with his conclusions, but I also believe that the chances of Mueller doing the right thing are about the same as finding a needle in a haystack!<\/p>\n
