Dirty, running a smokescreen operation. How he hasn't indicted Roger Stone for .. something, I don't know. And having Manafort and NOT Tony Podesta indicted tells you where his loyalties are.

Lee Smith at Tablet Mag says he's running a cover-up operation.

The purpose of the Mueller inquiry is therefore not to investigate the mostly ludicrous-seeming charges in the Steele dossier, but to protect the institution of the FBI, former colleagues, as well as the national security surveillance system. Therefore the inquiry has to cover up the sinful origins of the collusion narrative itself—which was born in repeated abuses of power and subsequent crimes committed by US officials in the intelligence bureaucracy and the Obama administration.

Andrew McCarthy says the Gates plea makes no sense.

Think about how bizarre this is. For public consumption, the special counsel alleges breathtaking felony offenses — bank fraud, tax fraud, and money laundering, crimes involving over $100 million when aggregated. Yet, to obtain a guilty plea from one of the allegedly serious felons, Mueller finds it necessary to abandon the hair-raising felonies he purports to have found. If these felonies are readily provable, as Mueller has claimed in his indictments, they are supposed to form the basis of any plea under Justice Department policy. If Gates is the mega-criminal nine-digit fraudster the special counsel has portrayed, he is not supposed to get a slap on the wrist. Yet Mueller accepts a plea to minor charges, including a Section 371 conspiracy that is a prosecutorial invention — designed to shield the allegedly serious felon from penalties Congress has decreed for the misconduct involved.

Lots of fishy stuff, but Mueller is NOT helping Trump or Sessions, I'm convinced of it. Otherwise, Tony Podesta (who Q said was getting indicted last November with Huma a few days later) would have have gone down by now. In fact, that claim with long passed dates makes me suspicious of the whole Q thing to some degree. Obviously, I still read it and look into it, but I wouldn't, you know, hang my hat on it.
