The ‘Resistance’ has gotten what it wanted … and may rue the day.
========
Let’s keep this simple.
1) Democrats have been hollering for a special prosecutor, and
2) Comey reportedly wrote a memo-for-the-file – a practice that he’s known to have always done routinely – that says Trump hoped the Flynn investigation would go away … obstruction of justice? smoking gun?
3) So, Robert Mueller got appointed Special Counsel to the FBI:
Mueller is authorized to investigate “any links and/or coordination between the Russian government and individuals associated with the campaign of President Donald Trump,” as well as “other matters that may arise directly from the investigation”.
=========
OK, so Comey routinely wrote contemporaneous file memos documenting his interactions with his superiors … not just Trump … prior Presidents and DOJ bosses as well.
By definition, those memos are government property since they were created in direct connection to his job.
Mueller -– who has bi-partisan support as the last honest man – is authorized to pursue “other matters”.
Here’s where the Dems may be sorry that they got what they wished for …
