Firing him will not make the investigation go away. He has already pumped Flynn for a lot of information, and Flynn apparently thought it would be interesting to prosecutors since he was trying to cut a deal in March while Comey was still head of the FBI and Mueller hadn't even been thought of.
Lawyers who have weighed in on this say that Flynn's plea of guilty for lying to the FBI is insignificant. And it wasn't really a lie anyway.

How many years are we supposed to wait for Mueller to "uncover" something? This has already been going on for over a year, and so far ...nothing.

Really? Well, he'd better start bringing down the hammer then, because his team has been exposed. Strzok, his wife (worked for Fusion GPS), and the text messages between all of them indicating their extreme hatred of Trump, and their scheming to prevent his election. Too bad it didn't pan out. They can't possibly be objective.

Worse, it's now been revealed that Mueller unlawfully obtained transition team documents. We also know that the FISA warrants were issued based on the phony "dossier."

There have been multiple crimes committed by those involved in this investigation. The longer this goes on, the more we learn, and it's not looking pretty for the Democrats. They would actually be better off at this point if the investigation was ended tomorrow. But the investigation into the corruption of Democrats and Hillary will continue. We know too much at this point.

That sounds reasonable until you think it all the way through. Is there a 1% chance that you committed a felony? If so, that seems like a really low bar to ruin your life.

That would be fair, but since they did nothing about Hillary's criminal actions except sweep it all under the rug, they will look into this with their usual bias and find nothing. Just like every other rock the liberals turned over, they'll come up empty again.

As for Mueller and his sham of an investigation, I say let it play out. The FBI and the DOJ are making fools out themselves and nobody really thinks they're credible anyway. The fix was in for Crooked Hillary and it's all coming back to bite them in the ass.

I want to the whole thing to go down in flames with all of Mueller's a-holes indicted and put in prison.

I wouldn't mind seeing those promoting Mueller's lies charged too. That would include some of our C-D friends who love pushing fake news and FBI/Mueller lies.

Democrats are starting these rumors. They sycophants pass them around. Then the chorus screams about the threat that was totally fabricated by them to begin with.

The same rumors were going around last summer. Last I looked, Mueller is still there.
Uncertain one can say there are 'rumors' calling for the firing of Mr. Mueller.

As per the link provided:

Florida congressman Matt Gaetz, a House conservative who has led the charge against the Russia investigation and calls for a second special counsel, said Friday morning he wants Robert Mueller fired — and wants more Republicans to join in his cause. ...

Call me crazy but I consider lying, covering up, obstruction of justice and collusion with our sworn enemy regarding interference in our election to be worse crimes than lying about cheating on your wife or covering up a break in of a political rival's office.

So this is very serious folks. Those ready to dismiss the possibility based on nothing more than their support of the President are really missing the most important point of all. I am not convinced it happened but I am convinced we need to know with absolute certainty. Posters who call themselves Americans should understand just how important this is.

What a coincidence. You're repeating Schiff's excuse. The interviews are supposed to be strictly confidential until the Committee votes to release a transcript. Besides, CNN was tweeting about Jr.'s testimony during his testimony.

No, I don't have proof that Schiff is a Class A leaker. Yes, a load of circumstances point his way as a prime suspect.

Mr. Mueller was appointed special counsel on May 17th 2017 ~ in my book that's shorter than a year ~ what's the rush? He's doing alright so far, why not let him finish his work?
