Letter: Mueller time is far from up
(Andrew Harnik | The Associated Press) In this June 21, 2017 file photo, former FBI Director Robert Mueller, the special counsel probing Russian interference in the 2016 election, departs Capitol Hill following a closed door meeting in Washington. A spokesman for special counsel Mueller says the office has referred to the FBI allegations that women were offered money to make up false claims about Mueller.
James Green (“Mueller time is up,” Nov. 18) has stated that the Mueller investigation has "produced nothing of substance." At least he didn't state "No collusion!"
I would refer him to a Sept. 17 New York Times article, which states:
"Robert S. Mueller III, the special counsel investigating possible links between the Trump campaign and Russian officials, has issued more than 100 criminal counts against 32 people and three companies. Additionally, two people — Michael D. Cohen, a former lawyer of President Trump, and Sam Patten, a lobbyist linked to Mr. Trump’s former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort — pleaded guilty to charges that stemmed from Mr. Mueller’s inquiry."
For Mr. Green's benefit, if he so desires, the article lists the individuals and their crimes. And, now that the midterms are over, we can look forward to more information — and probably more indictments — coming from Special Counsel Mueller.
