Donald Trump responded tonight to this ongoing witch hunt. He asked about Hillary's crooked dealings with Russia.
And Hillary Clinton's obstruction of justice.
Gregg Jarrett says Mueller must recuse himself:
"If you look at the special counsel statute it says you cannot serve as special counsel if you have a personal relationship with someone who is central to the case. If this Washington Post story is true, it's now Trump against Comey. Comey is now the star witness, the key witness against Trump. Well, guess what? Comey and Mueller are longtime close personal friends, partners, allies. They were joined at the hip at the DOJ and FBI. It's a mentor-protege relationship. How is this fair to Donald Trump because Mueller is now going to decide whether to believe his good friend or the man who fired his good friend..."... This is the kind of stuff over which lawyers get disbarred. If [he] does not resign then Rod Rosenstein [ought to fire Mueller and then step down, recuse himself, because he's conflicted, also a witness in the firing of James Comey.]
Comment: Mueller should recuse himself from further participation, given the ethics regarding personal and professional conflict of interest.
