Cruz: People outside DC are not concerned with Russia investigation

[libertybele]

Most people realize by now that the Mueller investigation has been nothing more than a witch hunt and that there is no Russian collusion.  It's waste of taxpayers money and the story is growing old.  Now ... if there was an investigation into the person(s) who truly colluded with Russia; that would bring some excitement.  Everyone would love to see Hillary and cronies in orange jump suits.

Cruz: People outside DC are not concerned with Russia investigation

There is a broad disconnect between Washington and the rest of the country over interest in the Russia investigation led by special counsel Robert Mueller, Texas GOP Sen. Ted Cruz said Sunday.
"There is an incredible divide between Washington and the rest of the country when it comes to Bob Mueller and the Russia investigation," Cruz said on NBC's "Meet the Press." "The mainstream media, Washington, is obsessed with it. And when you get outside the Beltway, I don't find anybody concerned with this at all."
Cruz said people he spoke with in Texas were concerned about economic issues and border security, not about the ongoing probes and allegations about Russian interference in the 2016 election. ..........

A true Sherlockian moment.

[Sanguine]

I am very concerned about this apparently rogue "investigation".

[Smokin Joe]

I am very concerned about this apparently rogue "investigation".

Me, too. It is an abuse of power, Mueller and Comey both known for dogged witch hunts. Especially in light of the mis/non-feasance investigating Hillary and the report on that, it's pretty obviously a Partisan act, and a smokescreen for the crimes committed by the previous administration.
The damage it will do to investigative agencies will make it even harder to gain traction for reopening investigations into Hillary, Uranium One, Benghazi, and the pay-for-play or outright sale of sensitive material for donations to the Clinton Foundation and exorbitant speaking fees which reek of money laundering.

Mueller is essentially investigating himself...he's helping to cover up what they should be investigating.

What better position to engage in covering up the numerous sins of the past administration than to subpoena the evidence and control what survives, what is redacted to uselessness, what gets 'lost'?
He's the worm in a very rotten apple.

Yes, indeed.  However, and I know, I've stated this several times, but it still troubles me that Trump himself appointed Rosenstein who in turn appointed Mueller. In appointing Rosenstein Trump handed the DEMS a gift.  WHY??

Exactly.  In 8 years of Obamalala land, he almost destroyed this country

I have not read any informative or correct Trump tweets in the last 3 years.

I not only think he is right about this,but would go so far as to say no one in DC other than the professional criminal class we call "politicians" care about it,either.

Professional criminal class is a good way to describe politicians. How do they get fabulously wealthy on 150K a year? Why do our "public servants" have better health care and retirement than we serfs who employ them?

@austingirl

It just doesn't get any gooder than being able to retire with full pay and paid health care after serving only 2 years.

Do they even pay taxes on their retirement income?

This is so important, for people to know.

The 10 Worst, Most Embarrassing U.S. Media Failures on the Trump-Russia Story

by Glenn Greenwald.   January 20 2019, 5:39 p.m.
The Intercept

BuzzFeed was once notorious for traffic-generating “listicles,” but has since become an impressive outlet for deep investigative journalism under editor-in-chief Ben Smith. That outlet was prominently in the news this week thanks to its “bombshell” story about President Trump and Michael Cohen: a story that, like so many others of its kind, blew up in its face, this time when the typically mute Robert Mueller’s office took the extremely rare step to label its key claims “inaccurate.”

But in homage to BuzzFeed’s past viral glory, following are the top ten worst media failures in two-plus-years of Trump/Russia reporting. They are listed in reverse order, as measured by the magnitude of the embarrassment, the hysteria they generated on social media and cable news, the level of journalistic recklessness that produced them, and the amount of damage and danger they caused. This list was extremely difficult to compile in part because news outlets (particularly CNN and MSNBC) often delete from the internet the video segments of their most embarrassing moments. Even more challenging was the fact that the number of worthy nominees is so large that highly meritorious entrees had to be excluded, but are acknowledged at the end with (dis)honorable mention status.
