Mueller's Outrageous Raid

The shocking raid on the office, home, and Manhattan hotel room of President Trump's longtime personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, directed by a rogue independent prosecutor is the latest outrage in an out-of-control investigation aimed at reversing the results of the 2016 election.

The raid Monday that was directed by Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller III was a "Disgrace" and a "Pure and simple witch hunt," President Trump told reporters at the White House.

Trump's comments fueled speculation that he will try to fire Mueller, something the president had been avoiding talking about publicly.

Back in the real world that exists outside of MSNBC, Harvard Law professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz said on Fox News Channel that the heavy-handed raid made it a "Dangerous day today for lawyer-client relations." Documents were seized in the raid that took place even though Cohen "Cooperated completely" with Mueller's office, he said.

Mueller is reportedly also investigating a $150,000 donation that Victor Pinchuk, a pro-Russian Ukrainian oligarch, made to the Donald J. Trump Foundation in September 2015 after Trump gave a 20-minute speech.

Mueller is reportedly interested in the Trump Organization's failed 2015 push to construct a Trump Tower in Moscow, not long after the Kiev speech.

Mueller was supposed to be examining Russian election tampering but this latest raid "Once again shows that the special crisis is Trump," writes Daniel Greenfield, "[a]nd removing him from office through any means is the priority.
