Robert Mueller has died.

[milestogo]

Now on MSNOW.

So sad. He had Parkinsons Disease.

[spooky3]

1. Rip -- wish he had had more character and strength. Nt

10. Like Jerome Powell

23. Exactly! Nt

[Traildogbob]

2. Window or plutonium

Russia Russia Russia

[Botany]

3. Release his report now.

The man did his job and exposed the many ties between Trump and Russia but Bill Barr, the
Republicans, and the corporately controlled media did their jobs for the P.T.B. and hid Mueller’s
work.

Democracy dies in the dark.

[newdeal2]

4. I wonder who gets to write this "Truth"

I bet they’re all fighting over it at mar-a-lardo.

6. Note to Grim Reaper: TAKE tRUMP INSTEAD

[dweller]

13. Sorry

But it was Mueller’s time






wut …. somebody was going to say it

😐


✌🏻

[Blue Owl]

18. Groan....

But I have to admit I laughed a little

[CaptainTruth]

36. Grim Reaper was a great band.

I've lost count of how many times I've listened to "See You in Hell" & thought about Trump.

[Chasstev365]

7. Good Riddance

Sorry, but Mueller let Bill Barr control the narrative that Trump didn't collude with Russia in 2016, which he knew was bull shit. Just another Republican who refused to stop Trump when he had the chance.

[Johonny]

11. He was an old school moron

Thought he was "above" politics and thus let off one of the biggest criminals in history of our country. White males like him have let wealthy white males slide for centuries. It wasn't above politics, it was politics as usual. Sad.

[Chasstev365]

17. Well said!

[Bluetus]

43. Exactly. When they say the FBI used to be non-political, that means

They used to be run by Republicans (always have been and still are) and they lived and breathed the rule IOKIYAR. That was in the culture every single day since J Edgar. The culture says "Laws are for street crime. We are not political, so if politicians do anything iffy, we just ignore it, because their punishment is to be voted out of office."

Remember there has never, ever been a single Democrat confirmed as FBI Director. The Democratic Presidents believed this same J Edgar bullshit and didn't even try to nominate a Democrat.

Mueller might have had more integrity than some, but he was a product of that sick culture. There was never a chance he was going to do anything. Moreover, by the time he was named for Mueller Time, he obviously was mentally was past his prime.

RIP Mueller. Thanks for nothing.

[Rebl2]

45. Really

My you sound like dear leader, agent orange

[Bluetus]

47. Can you name a single thing

That Mueller did to help with our situation with Trump's treason? Anything?

At least Smith tried to put out some of his documentation. Mueller didn't even do that and he did not say a peep when the Attorney General completely undermined him. What is up with that? It is not as if they could fire him, or put him in prison.

What is the point of developing a reputation if you are not willing to put some of that on the line when it really counts?

I do not celebrate his death. But I am also not going to sugarcoat his life.

[MineralMan]

14. Donald Trump Just Said the Same Thing.

Interesting, I think.

[AverageOldGuy]

32. Congratulations.

Donald Trump just said the same thing you did.

QUOTE from Trump on Truth Social:

Robert Mueller just died. Good, I’m glad he’s dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people! President DONALD J. TRUMP

[Chasstev365]

35. I stand by my full statement: he put party over country. BTW:

Where did Trump say Good Riddance? If you're going to attack me, do it accurately!

[dem4decades]

9. I don't know what he could have done differently given the parameters of the job. yet the criminal lives.

[spooky3]

27. What he thought restricted him was an internal policy, not the law.

History is filled with heroes who had the moral code and courage to break rules, from inappropriate policies, to much stronger laws, when it was necessary to achieve justice. He simply wasn’t one of them.

[a kennedy]

12. Does this seem fast?? Had no idea he had Parkinson's.

[dweller]

15. I think he was diagnosed

In 2021



✌🏻

[Gordcanuck]

19. Parkinson's is not a quick one, but

Mueller wil be at the gates watching as Trump get frogmarched away to his final destination, “There’s more joy in heaven.”
😇

[MustLoveBeagles]

16. RIP

[Buzz cook]

20. Garland could have made Mueller special council

To prosecute the Russia Russia Russia hoax. I'm sure Trump would have been completely cleared. /sarc

[FakeNoose]

48. I think they tried to get Mueller but he turned it down

As it turned out he had serious medical issues that were finally disclosed to the public. Mr. Mueller came out of retirement to do the Special Investigation (Chump/Russia) and the pressure really took its toll on his health. He was not in any shape to do it again for Merrick Garland.

[niyad]

21. May he receive everything he deserves.

[LuckyCharms]

22. I'll go against some comments here. Mr. Mueller...

served his country admirably as a Captain in the Marines.

With regard to his investigation, he was constrained by forces that no one here would have been able to overcome.

So was Jack Smith...different forces, but constrained beyond his control nonetheless.

[spooky3]

28. Check out the history of Daniel Ellsberg, among others. Nt

[AverageOldGuy]

33. Thank you for stating the facts . . . facts that seem to elude a number of DU commenters

[peggysue2]

24. Mueller didn't look or sound good several years ago during . . .

His Congressional testimony during the Trump Fiasco, Act I.

It was revealed then (or at least rumored) that he'd been diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease. Not an easy way to shake your mortal coil. One of our neighbors died with Parkinson's last summer. Once you enter the final stages of the disease, the end comes petty quickly.

[Sam I Yam]

25. Bill Maher (pre-flip) had the best take on the milquetoast Mueller Report

"Bob Cost Us."

[AverageOldGuy]

34. Bill Maher is a POS

[Sam I Yam]

37. Now? Of course!

[snowybirdie]

26. Parkinsons is often

accompanied by a form of dementia. It was obvious he was suffering when he testified to Congress . He was the wrong man for that job. RIP

[ShazzieB]

29. Jeopardy clue: Disappointment.

Answer: What is the first word that comes to mind when I hear the name Mueller?

I have no ill will toward the man, but that's the chief emotion I associate with that name. We had such high hopes for that investigation, and...



Still, he tried. I will always believe that. RIP, Dude.

[Evolve Dammit]

30. In keeping, Orange Anus said he was glad. His full blown evil is coming out. How about an unredacted report now?

[TommieMommy]

31. So sad 🙏 Parkinson's is such a horrible disease. My brother in law has it.

My deepest sympathy for his family 🙏❤️

[CaptainTruth]

38. I still think he would have made a good SCOTUS judge.

[AllaN01Bear]

40. ""

[srose58089]

41. Only a complete narcissists could say something like

The president on Saturday wrote on Truth Social: "I'm glad he's dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people!"

[Deuxcents]

42. TSF is implying he's innocent which is far from the truth and everyone knows it

[vanlassie]

44. It basically screams that he has no inhibitions left.

Fucking red flag. For us.

[niyad]

46. Not being sarcastic here, but when did krasnov EVER demonstrate inhibitions?
