A U.S. judge on Monday backed Special Counsel Robert Mueller in the federal Russia investigation, allowing a case to proceed against a Russian company accused of helping fund a propaganda operation to sway the 2016 presidential election in Donald Trump's favor.

Judge Dabney Friedrich, in an opinion filed in the U.S. District court for the District of Columbia, rejected an argument by the company, Concord Management and Consulting LLC, that Mueller was unlawfully appointed and lacked prosecutorial authority.

"By investigating and prosecuting Concord, the Special Counsel did not exceed his authority," Friedrich wrote in her opinion. She also rejected the company's argument that Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, acting on behalf of Attorney General Jeff Sessions after his recusal, was out of bounds in bringing in Mueller to investigate the alleged Russian meddling.

I hate that word... meddling

2. The Special Counsel is lawfully appointed and has prosecutorial authority

Better get used to that idea, Trump administration and its partners in crime. The Hail Mary pass falls impotently to the ground, incomplete.
