WASHINGTON (AP) — .........................

Mueller is investigating allegations of Russian meddling in the 2016 election and any possible links to President Donald Trump's campaign.

Democrat John Conyers of Michigan also attended the meeting..

What exactly is there to investigate? The fact she had the election stolen by the Russians? If not, STFU.
