You don't read so good.Except there is NO law on the books in regards to "collusion" you mutt!Your contention that Rod Rosenstein has the power to order an investigation into any American for any reason he chooses, even if there is no evidence a crime has been committed, is truly bizarre and certainly unAmerican. No one in the US government has the kind of unfettered power you want to give to Rosenstein and no one should. However, Mueller exceeded the authority given to him by Rosenstein's letter to go after Manifort. The letter allows him to pursue crimes he uncovers in pursuit of his search for Russian involvement in the election, but the Manifort indictment is based on an old investigation in which Justice Department had closed years ago because of insufficient evidence and was outside Mueller's purview.No, the judge will find Rosenstein's letter of authorization was too broad and that even then Mueller went beyond the authority granted to him by the letter. The Inspector General will issue a report soon that will level similar criticisms, Rosenstein will be reassigned to whatever the Justice Department's version of traffic court is and will resign. Since this judge has accused Mueller of lying and bending the rules to illegitimate ends, he will open an investigation into all of Mueller's actions to date and that will effectively shut down the whole faux investigation. Adam Schiff will then have nothing to talk about but Stormy Daniels underpants.We will all wait on the judge, who will decide that Rosenstein is the one who delineates the scope of the investigation, not the judge.

The judge cannot "find" that in any way.
Rosenstein decides how broad the investigation will be. Not the judge.
Mueller did exactly what he was authorized to do.
Prosecutors: Rosenstein gave Mueller OK to probe, indict Manafort
"The May 17, 2017 [appointment] order was worded categorically in order to permit its release without confirming specific investigations involving specific individuals," Rosenstein wrote in the Aug. 2, 2017 memo. "The following allegations were within the scope of the Investigation at the time of your appointment and are within the scope of the Order: ... Allegations that Paul Manafort: Committed a crime or crimes by colluding with Russian government officials with respect to the Russian government's efforts to interfere with the 2016 election for President of the United States, in violation of United States law. Committed a crime or crimes arising out of payments he received from the Ukrainian government before and during the tenure of President Viktor Yanukovych."

That was never my contention, liar.
Mueller exceeded nothing, fool.

I'm LOVING IT!!!!
Flynn will walk. Manafort will walk.
Every piece of paper Struck even breathed on will be tossed out of court.
It's all going tits up for Mueller.
How many school books and tablets for inner city children would 10 million dollars buy that Mueller has pissed away on fuck all?
It said nothing about collusion being a crime.
