MISSION CREEP.

President of conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch, Tom Fitton has repeatedly called for the Mueller witch hunt of Trump and his associates to be shut down as it is unconstitutional and unsupervised.

Mueller’s team of lawyers is so big and powerful now that Fitton described it as the Special Counsel’s ‘own Justice Department’. This is all thanks to AG Jeff Sessions recusing himself.

In response to a Daily Beast article titled “Bob Mueller Brings on ‘Tough’ Guy Stephen Kelly to Handle Capitol Hill”, Fitton said, “Bob Mueller setting up his own Justice Department. Shut it down.”

The Daily Beast article says Mueller has now brought on a liaison to Capitol Hill:

Having hired a host of seasoned federal prosecutors for his probe of the president’s associates, Bob Mueller has now brought on a liaison to Capitol Hill. Stephen Kelly, formerly the longtime congressional affairs chief for the FBI, has joined the probe, according to several sources familiar with his new role. “Stephen Kelly is exactly who I would hire if I wanted to share as little information with Congress as possible,” said a Hill staffer who has interacted with Kelly in his new role as Mueller’s congressional liaison.

Robert Mueller also just hired his SEVENTEENTH liberal hack lawyer to investigate Trump. The latest hack is an Obama/Hillary donor.

Fitton is right. Mueller has essentially set up his own Justice Department; he’s the one doing all the investigating while Trump’s Justice Department sits idly by doing absolutely NOTHING.

Special Counsel Robert Mueller added his 16th radical left-wing lawyer to his team in early August as he continues to investigate Trump’s personal finances under the guise of a ‘Russia probe’.

Greg Andres is the 16th lawyer to be added to Mueller’s team. He worked under Eric ‘Fast N’ Furious’ Holder from 2010 to 2012. No bias here though. This is a completely fair investigation as Paul Ryan says.
