A big OOPS on this one. I self-deleted.

I posted an article in legitimate media, but after looking up the author, I confirmed that he used to work for Heritage...I think that although it seemed this was a nonpartisan fact-based short article, it maybe wasn't. So best to delete, I thnk.

Comey certainly didn't follow DOJ policy.

Trump and his minions never follow policy.

Mueller will do what it takes to get the job done.

except in the instance of the public statements re Clinton's emails. Otherwise, he was a straight arrow FBI man.

The author says Mueller is a rules guy. He says the rules prohibit him from filing an indictment against Trump. True? Not true? I do think he's right that Mueller is a rules man, after reading about his past and the "integrity" statements about him by everyone.

But I hope the article is wrong.

Mueller AND Rosenstein. The two most important people in the country right now.

Okay....I hadn't looked up the author.

He did used to work for Heritage, in addition to a string of high level cyber security & other positions in the govt and private business.

So a big OOPS on his one. I will delete.
