I hope Robert Mueller is eating well, getting enough exercise, and plenty of sleep.

But I'm afraid maybe he isn't.

What a way for a 73 year old to be spending his "retirement." When I think of the pressure that is on that man's shoulders . . . .

This decorated Marine is in the battle of his life.

And not in some intangible way from some foreign oppressor, but from the country itself!

Not to detract from anyone's role, but I don't think any of his team assume near the responsibility Mueller does. If one of them messes up, it will Mueller who gets blamed.

He is only 1 year my senior and age does not define US. Expect great things from this man. He will deliver.

Thank you Mr. Mueller.

is the only one doing his best to prevent a Hostile Take over of our Country. Every thing you read about him says,he is a detail fanatic. Evidence is Rick Gates,bullshit only bought him a couple of weeks,and Manafort is playing that same bullshit game.

Mueller will be seeking indictments for years to come. This is massive.

who would have to be confirmed by the GOP-led Senate. It's unlikely that person would be another one like Mueller.

-- saw this on Facebook, friend of a friend who's a gun nut in Houston.

Mueller's been Republican longer than this guy's been alive, but now suddenly they're all calling him an 'Independent'.
