Cost of Robert Mueller's Russia probe exceeds $5 million: Report

[Dashinka 25,887]

Hmm, I guess a bunch of lawyers are eating well

 

The federal government’s investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election, led by special counsel Robert Mueller, has topped $5 million in costs, according to a report.

The Justice Department is expected to release its first expense report related to Mueller’s investigation next week, but ABC News reported Friday the Russia probe currently has a price tag of more than $5 million.

A bargain then, at about 1.4x the cost of a trip to mar-a-lago.

 

 

And lawyers always eat well. Working (expensable) lunches, dinners, and occasionally breakfasts

5 million dollars into a black hole. I hope the Russian collusion conspiracy theorists are proud of themselves.

More was spent on Benghazi and no indictments, but that was ok as far as the Republicans were concerned.

Soldiers and government officials were killed in Benghazi. That warrants an investigation. On the other hand there isn't any evidence that even remotely suggests there was any collusion between Trump and Russia yet here we are $5 million and a year later.

Worth every penny to lock up the traitor(s) and clean up the infectious colluditis. Lock him up. Lock him up.

Na....I mean Flynn and his Russian collusion which Trump knew about.

Yeah, the Obama and Bush transition teams never made contact with foreign ambassadors.  Why the new standard?

You should change the channel so you can keep up with the facts.

There is a big difference between "making contact" and what transpired with Flynn and Kushner.

Big difference?  Please elaborate.

Please feel free to choose a reliable source of information to educate yourself on the latest of the men surrounding Trump and Flynn's charades. I won't spoon feed it to anyone.

Which is deflection parlance for “I got nothing”.

Just what I figured.  Nothing.  Btw, the folks Obama and Bush surrounded themselves with were not choir members either.  We can go back to Clinton as well if you would like.

No reason to go back to anywhere, the show is hot and current right now. 

Sorry that you don't know the intrinsic details everyone else knows but as I said change the channel, it's that easy.
