Former special counsel Robert Mueller defended his investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and said Roger Stone remains a felon

WASHINGTON—Former special counsel Robert Mueller in an op-ed on Saturday defended his investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and said Roger Stone remains a felon, a day after President Trump commuted the prison sentence of his longtime friend and political adviser.

Mr. Stone was convicted in federal court in November of making false statements, witness tampering and trying to impede a congressional investigation into Russian election interference. He was set to report to prison on Tuesday to begin serving...

Stone could care less He had no problem being the bagman for Donald with Russia so he could care less about the law. Mueller for all his work brought a penknife to a gun fight and knew it. He knew from day one what he was dealing with.

This BS coming from the man that knew there was NO Trump / Russia collusion on the first day he started his investigation, yet dragged his investigation out for over 2 years spending $40,000,000. He sold his soul to partisan DEM, DEEP STATE politics.

I wonder who wrote that for him?

Mueller owes taxpayers $40 Million dollars for a Russian collusion investigation made up based on fabricated information

Did he say that with a straight face?

Russian hoax you mean. Obama and his cronies should be in jail.

A regular Dillinger.

Outsourced writing! Did he write this or only wrote his name as it's author?

Mueller knew when he started the job (or should have known if he any involvement) that there was no Russia collusion. Everything that followed his appointment was political. Had nothing to do with anything else. Stone a pawn. Jury foreman tainted, judge s/be recalled/impeached.

Mueller is a mess

COME ON MUELLER TELL THE TRUTH IT WILL SET YOUR FREE FRM THE CHAINS LIBERAL DEMOCRAT SOCIALIST HAVE ON YOU! WE KNOW THE TRUTH! CONFESS AND BE FORGIVEN!!! STOP CORRUPT DEMOCRAT SOCIALIST! STOP CORRUPT FAKE NEWS! VOTEDEMOUT KAG TRUMP2020

Deep state parasites!

Why use the word 'felon'? Felon means a serious crime like rape or murder. Please do not confuse the public.

Сколько денжонок налогоплательщиков потратил ? Ась?

When Mueller was asked if he felt bad about the corrupt convictions of innocent men, two of whom died in prison, he said no.

Everybody should remember that this guy ( Mueller) was the same guy responsible for sending for innocent man to prison for life sentences, two of whom died there and subsequently when the FBI corruption was revealed. millions of dollars were paid out. 1 Mueller was asked about it

Mueller is the Felon.

Meuller is another biased greasy lawyer schlime scheisser, he played the crap during his tenure as the head of FBI, he was always more inclined with politics than keeping the good reputation of the FBI on top. When infront of congress he couldn't even remember certain events,!!!

I suppose he means 'My investigation wasn't a complete waste of time'.

What an epic fail Mueller ended up being at the end of his career. He got played badly by the Trump administration and the best he can do is say that Stone is still a convicted felon?

Witch Hunt!

Mueller wrote his own Op-Ed just like he wrote the Mueller Report.

Was he able to write this? Close to impossible....

State your name....ah.....

Not your purview

Arrest mueller

He and Joe can room together in a memory care senior community.

Mueller is an honest man. The Republicans are dishonest people.

Of course he did. In the end? We know who the true felon is. Mueller.

Obama 1,927 pardons Trump 26.

DEAR PRESIDENT TRUMP. PLEASE HELP THE FILIPINOS. OUR COUNTRY IS NOW RULED BY A TYRANT UNDER THE DICTATES OF CHINA CCP XI JIN PING. SAVE OUR COUNTRY FROM THE CLAWS OF A DICTATOR AND HELP US TO HAVE BACK OUR FREEDOM YOU AMERICANS HAVE HELPED US TO ACHIEVE LONG TIME AGO.

A real hero and patriot, Robert Mueller.

Clueless Mueller.. He didn’t write the op ed.. He was clueless...

Too little, too late. Trump is getting away with everything. Mueller should have seen the writing on the wall and been more vocal when it would have mattered.

I am surprised that WSJ saw need to publish this. Based on his report and his testimony to congress, he has absolutely no credibility!

He didn’t have a clue about his investigation when he testified in Congress. It was pathetic & I wonder who wrote this op-ed for him.

This man betrayed America.

Trumpholio & Roger Stone. Adorable. LAW & ORDER! Then licking of bungholes followed by eating of young. 4 more years of corrupt, unethical insanity?

So what, it is over.

BREAKING—Mueller didn’t just “say” Stone remains a felon Stone in fact remains a felon

Joke!

You should have done more when you had the chance Robert Mueller, it's as simple as that. TrumpIsATraitor

There is no chance Robert Mueller personally write the OpEd, none. Fairly certain his dementia has not improved since his testimony almost a year ago. My guess is Andrew Weissmann was behind this like most of the overreach by the SC.

About time he speaks up about something

This is the guy that in front of America, couldn’t recall, reference or in fact know much about his own Report....if you ask Elon Musk about any detail on a Tesla he’d nail it in a nano second...Mueller...his own report was a stranger to him....so.....This guy is sayin’ whaaaat?

He would

Be real journalist and introduce ObamaGate to your readers. You won't because you are yellow journalist.

Saving face 101.

We saw his defense during the congressional hearing.

At this point, that’s just sad.

Arrest corrupt Mueller for running a hoax and deceiving the public.

What a hack

It’s best Mueller shut his mouth now. The damage he did to the office of presidency is unprecedented.

Odds that Robert Mueller actually wrote that op-ed?
