The crimes of this Administration cannot go unpunished

No matter what happens with the Mueller probe, when the Dems take over in 2021 they cannot "move on" or "put the past behind us"
The gross abuses and crimes of this Administration must be fully investigated and prosecuted.
If not, are we any better than Trump letting the Saudis off the hook?

We made a mistake after 2008 by not go after the criminals in the Bush Administration, and playing nice did not prevent the GOP from roaring back into power.

Let's not be foolish again. Justice demands these people pay for what they are doing.

Will be quick , and complete for them all. Its coming , and they know it now that it can't be stopped. They should all face the harshest possible sentences for what they've done, or it'll happen again , and next time be even worse.

just to examine every action and policy of the prior 4 years, first to identify (for the purpose of immediately reversing) any illegal/inappropriate policies, and second to refer criminal matters to the DOJ for further investigation and prosecution.

Never mind the clean-up needed in the White House. Probably need to staff up an entire second White House Counsel's office just to work backwards through the past 4 years while the real one works forward-looking.
