I spent Friday night watching MSNBC as Brian Williams was closing. I was about to call it a night when Mr. Williams decided to tell us a bit about who Robert Swann Mueller, III is. I wanted to know more. What I found … well, I want to share with you, who it is the Republican party is now trying to tar and feather in order to protect the WORST, most despicable person to ever sit in the oval office.
They should be ashamed — it should be apparent, even to them, that Trump and his whole family may be rank traitors. And that any member of congress would even CONSIDER going along with Trump’s attempts to kill the investigation with his infamous “Fake News” vomitus is disgusting.
Comey is often described as a boy scout (something I don’t agree with, by the way — partisan hack with some principles seems more appropriate). Here’s the thing: if Comey’s a scout, then Mueller is as close being to the second coming those evangelical hypocrites say they’re waiting at the front of the line for, that it isn’t funny. They of the best “love for the military and law enforcement” apparently don’t see the soldier before them, and know even less about a man who takes his oath to serve his country so seriously.
They can’t see him for what he is, that he is the BEST of what they say they represent, because he’s threatening Trump (that Great Orange Buffoon).
So, to answer the question, “Who is Robert S. Mueller?”, I decided to look him up after hearing what Chris Matthews had to say. I sourced info from from Time Magazine (05/17/2017), and rest from Wikipedia). I have paraphrased and listed key points, below:
- Robert S. Mueller, III, has a society pedigree that Trump would normally be sucking up to: born in Manhattan, private school education, Princeton B.A. in Political Science, and Master’s in International Relations from NYU.
- Robert S. Mueller, III, lost a friend in Vietnam — Lacrosse teammate David Hackett, and decided it was his duty to serve, instead of evading service, like Trump
- He enlisted in the Marine Corps, in part because that is what Hackett had done (Mueller’s father had been in the Navy). He attended and finished Officer Candidate School at Parris Island (USMC). Upon completion, he attended Army Ranger School, then Army Jump School.
- He departed for Vietnam, where he served with distinction.
- Robert S. Mueller, III, was accorded many honors for his service, including (see Task and Purpose, May 18, 2017):
- the Bronze Star with Valor,
- A Purple Heart
- Navy and Marine Medals of Commendation for Valor
- Combat Action Ribbon
- Republic of Vietnam Gallantry Cross.
- Robert S. Mueller, III returned from Vietnam to attend the University of Virginia. He stood for a Juris Doctorate (in other words, he became a lawyer), then served as a US attorney.
- He helped nail some of the baddest of the bad, including Noriega, Gotti, and the Lockerbie bombing suspects.
- Robert S. Mueller, III became the second longest serving director of the FBI in US history upon appointment to the position (the first being J. Edgar Hoover, who was not fit to touch this man’s shoes, IMO).
- He’d previously been a deputy AG at Justice, along with a mentee of his, Jim Comey.
- Mueller and Comey protected the late AG John Ashcroft, then on his deathbed, from Andrew Card and Alberto Gonzalez, who’d been sent by the WH to pressure Ashcroft to overide the DOJ on denying the reauthorization the Terrorist Surveillance Program (TSP).
- Mueller blocked the CIA from involving the FBI in the “enhanced interrogations” being carried out at Guantanamo, Abu Garaib, and other locations.
- Robert S. Mueller, III, is a REPUBLICAN.
This is who Robert S. Mueller, III, is. This is the man that Trump has been calling all manner of names and attempting to discredit, along with the organization he helped to support in prestige and respect, also having served the FBI with honor.
This is the man that the GOP say is picking on — has an unfair vendetta against, is conducting a witch hunt on — Trump, a man who is unfit to sit in the oval office, who is, at best, a bumbling crook and a liar, and at worst, a treasonous dog and a liar,
Trump, you have f***ed up royally in tangling with this man. This man is relentless. This man is righteous. This man will be merciless in completing his mission.
He is not like you — not dishonest, not a liar, not willing to do or say ANYTHING to attain his goals. He is not vindictive or revengeful. Again, he is righteous. And he’s coming for you, Donald John Trump. He’s not going to stop, either, until he’s done sorting your mess out, no matter how much s**t you and the other monkeys in the Republican party throw at him.
This is who Robert S. Mueller, III, is.
