Name:   MartiniMan - Subject:   "Special Prosecutor" to look at Trump probe origin Date:   5/14/2019 9:18:19 AM

So not really a special prosecutor but close enough to look into the origins of the probe of the Trump campaign.  This on the heels of the IG report which is supposedly going to be released some time in June.  I think they also need to examine the Clinton email system investigation since the more we learn about it the more disturbing the picture becomes.  IMO the former was an abuse of power and the latter was a sham investigation bordering on a coverup.  We will see what all these investigations turn up but I suspect that there are a number of very nervous people from the Obama admin, especially Comey, McCabe, Clapper, Brennan, Baker, Yates and many others.  The question is if there was illegalities, will anyone break and if so, who will it be?  Usually the strategy is to offer a deal to the first one that comes clean and then you fry the rest.  That is an awful strong temptation if there were improprieties and none if there weren't.

On a related note, Rosenstein is already on the speaking circuit flaming Comey.  He actually called Comey a "political pundit", which by all appearances he was that when head of the FBI although I would have added partisan to that nom de plume.  Clapper and Brennan are of similar ilk.  What is interesting is that these latter two maroons do not seem to be the darling of the resistence media lately.  I suspect their legal counsel has told them to shut their traps but it is also likely they are no longer useful idiots to the media any longer.
