The system allows for fraud and gaming via weak bureaucrats, Trump pointed that out years ago.

Witness how Mueller gamed his own investigation to trap Trump and failed.



"Office of Exoneration Mueller" does not refer to a formal government body or office. It stems from comments made by a U.S. Representative during former Special Counsel Robert Mueller's congressional testimony in July 2019.

During questioning, Rep. Michael Turner (R-OH) suggested that Mueller seemed to believe there was an "office of exoneration" within the Department of Justice, which Mueller denied. Turner used the phrase to argue that neither Mueller nor the Attorney General had the power to formally "exonerate" President Donald Trump, as the special counsel's role was to investigate and present facts, not to declare a person innocent.

Key Facts related to the phrase:
  • No Official Office Exists: The "Office of Exoneration Mueller" is not a real entity.
  • Mueller's Statement: In his public statements and report, Mueller explicitly stated that his investigation did not "exonerate" President Trump on the question of obstruction of justice. He noted that if his team "had confidence that the President clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so".
  • DOJ Policy: Mueller cited a long-standing Department of Justice policy that a sitting president cannot be indicted, which is why he did not make a traditional prosecutorial judgment on the matter.
  • Trump's Claims: Despite Mueller's statements, President Trump repeatedly claimed the report was a "complete and total exoneration".
In essence, the phrase highlights a key point of contention during the political and legal discussions surrounding the conclusion of the Special Counsel's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.
