Both the CIA and the FBI investigated Iraq and the wmd's. Mueller headed the team for the FBI's own investigation into wmd's.
"As Director Tenet has pointed out Secretary Powell presented evidence last week that Baghdad has failed to disarm its weapons of mass destruction, willfully attempting to evade and deceive the international community.
Our particular concern is that that Saddam Hussein may supply terrorist with biological, chemical or radiological material."
mueller/his FBI team is a part of that "Our", along with the CIA. He was using his FBI investigative team to back up the CIA in that last sentence. Yeah, he lied to Congress.
Not even close, going on the intelligence assessment of Powell, he relayed the logical concerns anyone in his position would have as a result of the assessment. Is he not supposed to be concerned about Powell telling him that Saddam Hussein is a threat after 9/11 had happened the previous year?
Obama was a community organizer who knew nothing about running anything, much less a country. He wanted to bring it down, though, and made great progress towards that goal.
There are a lot of people in history that did stuff. Get over it, Trump is president.
"Part 1 of Tucker's interview with President Trump in Helsinki - Trump discusses 'very bad people' former CIA director John Brennan, FBI lovebirds Peter Strzok and Lisa Page being 'exposed,' the bipartisan call for conflict with Russia in Washington, NATO, Dems and open borders and more #Tucker"
I sure hope Trump is allowed to do his job. Seems like he is doing a great job, not like the administrations before him did.
The problem is now in relation to the distrust of the Trump administration by not just western leaders but by US and western intelligence.
It is also possible that intelligence may be witheld from the Trump Administration due to this distrust.
Trump's scripted statement saying that he meant wouldn't instead of would, does not make the situation any better or limit the damage that has already been done.

The US-UK relationship is based on intelligence cooperation and a common loyalty born of history, but Britain now has to absorb the fact that the US president is willing to trust the word of a former KGB agent ahead of the consensus of his own intelligence community.
The killer quote that will send a chill through western intelligence agencies runs as follows: “I have President Putin, he just said it’s not Russia. I don’t see any reason why it would be.”
Once it was thought the Trump doctrine was no enemies, no allies, just permanent destabilisation. After the last six days, it is possible even that Hobbesian assessment is wrong. Trump, for whatever contorted reason, does have an ally, but that ally does not reside in western Europe.

Trump lied the entire trip. Trump is worn out, unable to read, and based on yesterdays lie about a word, showing more signs of senility.
It is obvious to the planet, Trump is a weakling who is controlled by Putin.
John Brennan, who once voted for a communist candidate accuses Pres. Trump of "treason."
Barack Obama caught on open mic., "This is my last election. I'll have more flexibility after the election."
But the Leftists think Pres. Trump is a "puppet" of Putin? Laughable!

You people love carrying his water.
He was there to testify for the FBI and his own team. When he said "our" he was also backing up the investigation from the CIA. Any way you want to try to spin it does not negate the fact that he lied when he said - "Our particular concern is that that Saddam Hussein may supply terrorist with biological, chemical or radiological material." <--that sentence was a lie that he told to Congress.
