Aaaaaaaaaaaaand, the sliming of Mueller begins. What a totally unexpected turn of events.

I'm not going to post the article here...it's on Raw Story, sourced from Newsweek, if you want it. Right on the front page, you can't miss it.

Newsweek is essentially carrying water for the LA Times, which interviewed "several former aides and investigators who worked with Mueller."

No actual "scandal" here, just the insinuation that he's not the nicest kid in the sandbox, and I could give a shit about that as long as the indictments keep coming down.

Conspiracy to commit treason. And it gets worse. 70%-80% of rethugs knew and helped.

So of course the right wing will try to smear and discredit the messenger.
