Its little secret at this point that the Mueller investigation is coming apart at the seams. Thanks to a flurry of revelations that prove the investigation was started as nothing more than a political hit job, trust in Mueller and his investigation are at an all-time low. Now, one lawmaker has filed legislation to remove Robert Mueller from the investigation entirely.
Matt Gaetz, a Republican representative out of the state of Florida, filed legislation to fire Robert Mueller, citing the fact that Mueller was recruiting people to his investigation that had a deep and obvious bias against the President. For the FBI – an organization where bias and partisanship have no place – this type of behavior is beyond unacceptable.
Gaetz claims that the people who investigated Hillary Clinton showed this same level of bias in conducting the investigation into her wrongdoings. Now, they continue to hold positions of power in the FBI and continue to show unprecedented levels of bias and partisanship in their proceedings. According to Gaetz, it’s time for a change, and most of the American public seem to agree.
While it may not be politically expedient for Trump himself to fire Mueller at this juncture, having Congress move to fire Mueller would be an entirely different story, and, given the evidence against him, his firing is long overdue.
