Special Counsel investigating Russian interference appoints former Clinton Foundation lawyer

Sounds like a witch hunt to me. Isn't Comey's brother a lawyer for the Clinton Foundation?

If they keep this up I'm sure it will come down that Muller needs to recuse himself as well..... According to the DOJ rules he should have never taken the appointment to begin with....

C. DOJ-Specific Conflict of Interest Regulation: No DOJ employee may participate in a criminal investigation or prosecution if he has a personal or political relationship with any person or organization substantially involved in the conduct that is the subject of the investigation or prosecution, or who would be directly affected by the outcome. 28 CFR 45.2

Mueller was the head of the FBI, while Comey was his Deputy Director, I believe. Not best buds, but working colleagues, in a professional setting.

They were colleagues too, but they were also friends. This was said on CNN.

Discussing team Trump’s response to the Comey hearing, King noted that “Bob Mueller, the special prosecutor, is a very close friend of James Comey. I don’t think trashing James Comey, especially if you’re trashing him in ways that are demonstrably false, is going to help your legal case.”

Now that Comey is involved so deeply, he should definitely bow out.
