Letter: Take a look at the reality of the Mueller investigation

President Donald Trump is questioning the impartiality of Mueller's investigation and says the probe is groundless, while raising doubts about whether a fired top FBI official kept personal memos outlining his interactions with Trump.

James Oshust (“Mueller mission revealed,” Public Forum, March 23) has jumped on board the latest right-wing fake news talking points that the Mueller team and FBI are trying to frame President Trump. This latest spin is not unlike Nixon’s infamous quote of “I am not a crook.”

Oshust conveniently has forgotten that Mueller, a Republican, was appointed to his independent position by the Trump administration. It’s time to take off your tin hat, Mr. Oshust, and look reality in the face.
