How to end the Mueller nightmare

I believe the last two years, as traumatic as they were, will prove to be the easier part of the nightmare, because Mueller dealt only with whether Donald Trump's 2016 campaign conspired with Russia to swing the election.

Rosenstein's conflicts of interest are appalling and the Mueller appointment cast a cloud over the presidency and fueled conspiracy theories about the legitimacy of Trump's election.

The true impact is incalculable, but we know those claims led to the resistance movement and that Mueller was used by some Dems to justify boycotting the State of the Union speech and refusing to support any of Trump's appointments or legislation.

Now, with Mueller finished, it is time to give equal attention to the other side of the story, of how we got here.

"How do these statements sit with you?" Graham asked, referring to the Page and Strzok texts showing they hated Trump and wanted Clinton to win the election.

Getting to the bottom of it would mean a criminal probe of Comey and his former deputy, Andrew McCabe, along with others in the leadership ranks of the FBI. Did they, as it appears, fail to disclose to the court that Clinton's team commissioned and paid for the Russian dossier and that its allegations were unverified when they sought approval to spy on the Trump campaign?

Because there are so many questions about the Clinton case and the origins of the Trump probe, the best and only fair solution is for Barr to appoint a new special counsel.
