If the cops were investigating your son for selling opiods, then discovered during the investigation he was also pimping out his sister, they'd investigate that too. You get that, right?

You are such a weasel. You left out the mandate giving authority to Mueller for what he is doing. I see why you like Trump you are as dishonest as he is.

Here are the sentences you left out on purpose you little weasel. They are sort of important sentences, don't you think? You right wingers seem to have no trouble lying for Trump. I am sure members of your family are ashamed of you to!

CFR 600.1!!!! Weasel!

The Rosenstein Order provides that Mueller shall be “appointed to serve as Special Counsel” in order “to ensure a FULL and THOROUGH investigation of the RUSSIAN government’s efforts to interfere in the 2016 presidential election.”

And ""Any links or coordination between Russian government and INDIVIDUALS associated with the campaign of Donald J Trump.

ANY matters that arose or may arise from the investigation.

ANY other matters within the scope of CFR.600.4.

How did you manage to leave all of that out of your post below weasel?

<<Message #72944 from i-node at 5/23/2018 7:54:57 PM

No. Here is the official description as given by cbs.

“Mueller is supposed to carry on the investigation that former FBI Director James Comey told Congress about before he was fired by President Donald Trump. Thatincludes any links between Trump campaign associates and Russia, as well as "any matters that arose or may arise directly from the investigation," according to the letter appointing him.”

As you can see, no mandate to investigate diddling with the election unless Trump ha something to do with it.
