GOP Resolution Calls for Mueller to Resign
Legislation being introduced Friday by a Florida Republican tells special counsel Robert Mueller to resign from his position looking into possible Trump campaign contacts with Russia.
The resolution introduced by Rep. Matt Gaetz focuses on the alleged lack of FBI action under Mueller’s leadership regarding the 2010 Uranium One deal approved by the Hillary Clinton State Department.
Mueller was FBI director from 2001 to 2013 and the legislation says “any thorough and honest investigation into the corruption of American-uranium related business must include investigating the willful blindness of the FBI and its leaders.”
Reps. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., and Louis Gohmert, R-Texas, are initial cosponsors on the resolution.
The Uranium One deal resulted in Russian ownership of a Canadian firm with U.S. assets. It was finalized the same year former President Bill Clinton received a $500,000 speaking fee from a Russian bank linked to the deal. The Clinton Foundation received donations from others connected to the deal. (Read more from “GOP Resolution Calls for Mueller to Resign” HERE)
