One of the urban legends of the Mueller investigation was that there were no leaks. Well, some information has come out that totally undoes that myth.<\/p>\n
Yesterday The Conservative Treehouse<\/a> posted an article showing that certain information was selectively leaked during the investigation.<\/p>\n The article reports:<\/p>\n There has been a widespread media claim for two years that Robert Mueller\u2019s special counsel team never leaked.\u00a0 However, today, while entirely obfuscating the lede aspect to their admission\/story, Buzzfeed News outlines how FBI agents assigned to Robert Mueller\u2019s team actually leaked documents<\/em> from their investigation to the media.<\/strong><\/p>\n This admission is stunning\u2026.
