   The Rosenstein Memo
By Andrew C. McCarthy

April 4, 2018 6:30 AM

We now have a redacted version of the deputy attorney general’s guidance to the special counsel.

Eight months ago, in August 2017, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein secretly gave Special Counsel Robert Mueller specific guidance as to the crimes Mueller is authorized to investigate. The guidance came about ten weeks after Mueller’s May 17 appointment. This guidance purports to describe the grounds for criminal investigations, marking the limits of the special counsel’s jurisdiction.

As readers may recall, these columns have been critical of the deputy attorney general for failing to provide such guidance. Instead, I’ve contended, Rosenstein assigned Mueller to conduct a counterintelligence investigation, which is not a sound basis for appointing a special counsel; the regulations require grounds for a criminal investigation.

So . . . was I wrong? No, I was right.

Absolutely he was right! 

There never was any factual basis to initiate the Muller probe.  NONE what-so-ever!

If this Rosencreep trick is left to stand, any prosecutor can go after anyone for anything by dummying up some paperwork to give him the authority.

These people need to be fired at the very least.

If Mueller himself was an honest player, he would admit the basis for his "investigation" was contrived, and wrong.

Yet the dems, plus big media, and some weak Republicans, go together to create a political firestorm if Trump even suggests shutting the whole thing down.

But Trump is completely justified by saying the "Russia collusion," is Hillary.
