It almost makes it seem like Mueller was incredibly biased in his witch hunt.

Mueller was tasked with pursuing crimes that were result of his investigation. He uncovered a pedophile with child **** and decided that ORANGE MAN BAD was a greater goal than to press charges against a sick **** who should die by death. The Trump associates that he made deals with, he ended up rescinding because he decided they actually didn't hold up their end of the bargain -- how convenient.

Also, and I know that this may seem like a trivial point, but Mueller is with the FBI, and the FBI investigates federal crimes. Possession of kiddie ****, or molesting children, or other such things, are generally not criminal acts under federal law, only under state law. The FBI cannot investigate / prosecute alleged violations of state law. (You know, because the constitution respected the authority of the States and limited the powers the Federal government.)

I stand corrected.
This surprises me. It's usually safe to say (without checking) that most mundane criminal offenses are not covered under federal law.

mundane? I never realized you were a pervert. odd, yes, but not a pervert. Explains the affinity for the pixie haircut -- reminds you of young prepubescent children whose hair hasn't even grown out yet...

Don't ever do what I just did. Just... don't.

2. Refer to the B/I/U text, are you intimating that possession of child pornography is a mundane offense?

A white leftist — claiming to speak on behalf of a Black Lives Matter chapter — stealing a microphone from a black Buttigieg supporter to lecture a black audience on presumedly black issues.

Yes I continue to be amazed at people who think that every crime needs to be a federal crime, when the federal government is really supposed to be dealing with Interstate issues and items outside of the purview of the states. It's like they don't understand anything about the practical functionality of the Constitution.

They didn't steal the mic, they repatriated it. Sharon McBride personally stole that microphone from the black native Americans who inhabited this land four hundred years before she was born, and the microphone itself barely begins to cover the reparations which she personally owes everyone who is not cisgendered and white.

As compared to espionage, arms smuggling, the international drug trade, human trafficking, collusion with foreign nations, etc., yes, possession of child pornography is the sort of thing that usually gets prosecuted at the state level with little to no fanfare, as opposed to being televised on C-SPAN and making it into the Times and the Post.
Even though I'm against the death penalty, purely from a financial standpoint, it'd be nice if people like this were taken behind the jail house, two in the back of the head and buried underneath.
