If (big ig) there is absolutely no collusion then a simple procedural crime does nothing but negatively impact the administration and as an extension the government. If it was only meetings after the election then the lie has no real impact to any americans but a long drawn out investigation has certainly impacted the country.
The type of highly qualified and intelligent people needed for such investigations would seem to be more likely to have opinions on political races. I'm sure there are Pro-Trump people at the FBI as well. Regardless, the dude was removed from Mueller's task force when they determined he might have a bias against Trump, so yay Mueller?
That's not the point? Do you think Baier should have received a similar punishment and that Fox should have been sued for damages for that inaccurate report?

But there weren't
Things happen. And what happened was there weren't indictments.
Do you understand the indictment process ?
Do you understand the Grand Jury process ?
Anything to explain away the clear and obvious bias that the media/deep state has against conservatives/republicans. Its astonishing what the left is turning a blind eye to right now.
I guess I should have said educated? I recognize the flaw there, but do you really doubt that the Venn Diagram of people who become top investigators in the FBI and people who closely follow politics overlaps pretty strongly?
When you have avid supporters running the investigation well then you get away with things like deleting e-mails after a subpoena.
Sure, but I think that most of those people would also recognize the conflict of interest represented by taking a pronounced political stance on a matter that they happened to be investigating. I understand your contention is that all of this was pillow talk, but if anyone should have truly known better it would be the lawyer and a freaking cointel official.
Sure, they should have known better, but it's a pretty drastic leap to go from that to suggesting the entire investigation is tainted.

Robert Mueller is not avid supporter
even if he was, he could present to the Grand Jury --- that would not turn into an indictment --- why there is a Grand Jury process to avoid the conflict of interest you suggest
In all fairness, the internal investigation on the matter hasn’t concluded, so it would be premature to say one way or the other.
Taint is taint though. Does it destroy the underpinnings of the probe? No. Does it allow outsiders to rightfully question the integrity of the players/personnel involved? Absolutely.
Mueller wasn't the one who led the Clinton e-mail investigation. But what we've learned is that a very senior official, apparently the direct report to McCabe, was an avid supporter. Makes sense given the things HRC was able to get away with.

I stand corrected on Mueller.
Was there evidence that warranted a Grand Jury investigation ?
Then or now ?
Why hasn't the Trump DOJ sought Grand Jury ?
Because the Russia collusion investigation is taking precedent over everything and quite frankly it should because its a much more serious allegation. I want to know if Trump colluded with Russia as does everyone in the country. However, if it comes out there is no evidence of collusion and the Mueller investigation is completed then you better expect lots more splinter investigations to come out. Obama/HRC better hope that evidence of collusion exists.
