Mueller\u2019s fraudulent rogue prosecution gang, which is merely an extension of a larger corruption of power that is unparalleled in our history.<\/p>\n<p>Second, the president must use every resource at his disposal to prosecute the almost-seditious abuses of power by lawless Clinton-Obama FBI and NSA apparatchiks who:<\/p>\n<p>1) Politically weaponized the federal government\u2019s electronic intelligence capabilities to spy on a presidential candidate and his campaign,<\/p>\n<p>2) Colluded with foreign and non-state intelligence agents to manufacture evidence used as false pretexts for securing Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISA) warrants(s) that employed the national security laws of the United States to give illicit, illegal cover to this political espionage,<\/p>\n<p>3) Used the fruits of this political espionage activity to damage or otherwise hinder this candidate after he had become president-elect and eventually president of the United States through surreptitious releases of the criminally-procured information,<\/p>\n<p>4) Fabricated and instigated false allegations about foreign state collusion implicating the president\u2019s election campaign and family members, and<\/p>\n<p>5) Perpetuated this massive criminal fraud on the American people for nearly a full year by manipulating and abusing the investigatory and prosecutorial powers of the Department of Justice.<\/p>\n<p>To this end, President Trump must begin at the intersection of these seditious current and former federal officials who had previously facilitated and covered up a similarly-breathtaking criminal fraud on the country during the previous presidential administration, to include the previous president.<\/p>\n<p>The president must order his attorney general to appoint a special counsel to investigate the Obama-Clinton-Mueller-Rosenstein criminal collusion that enriched the Clinton-Democrat crime syndicate by hundreds of millions of dollars and further embedded the power of the deep state operators who facilitated the multi-billion-dollar Uranium One pay-to-play scam.<\/p>\n<p>This incredible scheme perpetrated by the criminal Clintons \u2014 and their coterie of minions and fellow travelers \u2014 implicates top officials of our federal government\u2026including and especially the U.S Department of Justice, including and especially Robert Mueller and Rod Rosenstein.<\/p>\n<p>An investigation is manifestly in the best interests of this country and of justice. It is not some political maneuver against the president\u2019s cynical partisan persecutors or some clever machination to spare his presidency from the illegitimate cabal that is single-minded in its intent to fraudulently remove the president from office, by any means possible.<\/p>\n<p>This course of action by the president is both legally and constitutionally necessary to preserve any remaining credibility in our institutions of government, which now hinges on whether or not justice will, once and for all, be visited upon the Clintons and their well-placed partisan accomplices, finally vindicating our system of law and justice after decades of yet-unpunished corruption that the Clintons and their ilk have insinuated into these institutions, bringing unparalleled and a now-accelerating degradation to American civic life itself.<\/p>\n<p>Proactive Republican lawmakers have already demanded the resignation of Robert Mueller, as a start, and are calling for a thorough probe of his entire ad hoc operation, which is now coming apart at the seams with almost daily revelations of its rotten fraudulent core.<\/p>\n<p>Mueller\u2019s decades as an establishment federal careerist, which only ended with his ceding of the FBI\u2019s top job to his good pal, criminal leaker and manipulator Big Jim Comey, offer more than enough grounds for Mueller\u2019s disqualification for merely the\u00a0<em>appearances<\/em>\u00a0of impropriety and professional conflicts of interest they raise. They are of such incestuous nature as it concerns key figures of the conspiracy to remove the president that Mueller should never even have been considered for appointment.<\/p>\n<p>That Mueller took the special counsel appointment without even blinking, despite his own close professional and personal connections to key figures implicated in the Department of Justice, National Security Agency and FBI corruption in service to ulterior partisan ends, via the Clinton crime family, was a major red flag, right from the beginning.<\/p>\n<p>Reinforcing this red flag was the fact that Mueller\u2019s entire (supposed) vetting for this sensitive, consequential special counsel position amounted a single-sentence approval letter signed by some faceless deputy attorney general barely a day after the appointment was promulgated.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from Mueller\u2019s blatant disregard for both attorney and public service ethics in accepting the special counsel appointment, some GOP lawmakers have also cited the former FBI director\u2019s close involvement with the Obama administration\u2019s secret Russian-U.S. uranium deal as more than enough reason for his immediate removal and the commencement of a real (untainted) investigation of the Obama-Clinton Russia-connected treason that Mueller has been instrumental in abetting and covering up.<\/p>\n<p>So exactly what is the story with Uranium One?<\/p>\n<p>URANIUM ONE 101<\/p>\n<p>The short version is that in 2010, when Mueller was FBI director, members of an interagency committee working under the Obama administration facilitated a highly-suspicious business deal that had grave public implication. The result of it was that Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton effectively handed Russia and Vladimir Putin control over as much as 20 percent of the uranium production capacity of the United States.<\/p>\n<p>As this deal was coming to fruition, after years of nefarious Clintonian machinations urging it along, Mueller\u2019s FBI was investigating \u2014 and may have uncovered clear evidence of \u2014 Russian bribery and fraud to the detriment of U.S. uranium contractors, as part of a larger Russian (Putin) racketeering scheme to gain control of global uranium resources, namely by purchasing the power and influence being peddled by the Clintons to anyone who would meet their terms.<\/p>\n<p>The FBI appears to have been investigating a Moscow-compromised uranium trucking company called Tenex As early as 2009. Tenex was allegedly engaged in racketeering through a pattern of bribes and kickbacks in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.<\/p>\n<p>Tenex was operating out of Bethesda, Maryland through a subsidiary named \u201cTenam USA.\u201d The company was run by a Russian official named\u00a0<a title=\"Press Release.

The result was that the Clintons\u2019 criminal treason, in collusion with Russian nuclear criminals, went full steam ahead, unperturbed.<\/p>\n<p>Mueller\u2019s key role in the covering up of these Russia-Clinton uranium dealings constitutes more than enough justification for Robert Mueller\u2019s immediate and unceremonious removal as an autonomous, secretive inquisitor limitlessly probing the newly-inaugurated president who defeated Mueller\u2019s former Obama administration crony and cohort, Hillary Rodham Clinton.<\/p>\n<p>There are probably a dozen other reasons why Mueller should be criminally charged but, for now, let\u2019s just focus on this most heinous of schemes to which Mueller has been party: the transfer of our precious uranium resources to criminal Russian oligarchs to benefit the Clinton-Obama crime junta and sleazy hucksters from the ranks of the Democratic Party.<\/p>\n<p>You might ask: How is it even possible that Russia (a supposed enemy) could acquire an in U.S. uranium capacity? The answer is that while Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State under President Barack Obama, the Russian atomic energy agency, Rosatom, was handed official U.S. government authorization to purchase a Canadian company named Uranium One which controlled uranium mining stakes stretching from Central Asia to the American West.<em>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Uranium One, as handed over to the Russians by the Obama-Clinton cabal, was effectively the creation of a Canadian entrepreneur named Frank Giustra.

There has never been anything like it, and we\u2019re going to have a special prosecutor.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>After his election, Donald Trump chose to be magnanimous and forward-looking rather than follow through on his words and appoint that special prosecutor. Trump naively thought he could commence his presidency free from the tentacles of his seething, embittered dragon lady of an opponent.<\/p>\n<p>Donald Trump genuinely did not want his presidency tangled up with the Clinton stain. He knew this would be impossible to avoid were he to see to the much-deserved prosecution of Hillary Clinton and her extensive syndicate of cohorts, cronies, flunkies and fellow travelers, including the likes of Mueller and Rosenstein, for their countless crimes and endless scandals.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately for Donald Trump, they turned his debate promise around and gave him his \u201cspecial prosecutor.\u201d And now this \u201cprosecutor\u201d is ruthlessly and illegitimately driving towards nothing less than a coup d\u2019\u00e9tat, that will only end with Donald Trump\u2019s removal as the duly-elected President of the United States.<\/p>\n<p>It will be ugly. It will be noisy. It will be dirty. It will be extremely difficult. The deep state\u2019s spooky guardians will threaten the president with everything they can summon. But, by God, it is high time for President Trump to end this despicable sedition being perpetrated by repugnant, monomaniacal partisan degenerates and begin the work of draining the swamp\u2026for real.<\/p>\n<p><em>Roger Stone is a legendary Republican political consultant and a veteran of many national Republican presidential campaigns.
