Trump Just Demanded The ‘Immediate End’ Of Mueller Probe In Crazy Late-Night Tweet
Donald Trump called for special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation to “be ended immediately” in a late night tweet Thursday evening.
In the tweet, Trump quoted Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz, who had just made an appearance on Fox News.
“Alan Dershowitz: ‘These are not crimes. He (Mueller) has no authority to be a roving Commissioner. I don’t see any evidence of crimes.’ This is an illegal Hoax that should be ended immediately. Mueller refuses to look at the real crimes on the other side. Where is the IG REPORT?” Trump tweeted.

The attacks on Mueller’s investigation into potential ties between the Kremlin and his campaign are nothing new; however, his latest barbs came hours after Michael Cohen, Trump’s former personal attorney, reached a plea deal with Mueller that revealed negotiations about building a Trump Tower in Moscow occurred well into the 2016 presidential campaign.
Afterward, Trump called Cohen a “weak person” and a “liar.” Cohen also pleaded guilty in August to eight counts of campaign finance violations, tax fraud, and bank fraud.
Earlier in the day, before the plea deal, Trump tweeted that Mueller’s investigation was an “illegal Joseph McCarthy style Witch Hunt, one that has shattered so many innocent lives.”
Twitter quickly called him out:
You might wanna just stay in Argentina. Maybe they will give you asylum? Or go to London and hang with your Wikileaks friend. Maybe you can bunk together in the Ecuadorian embassy?

Dear Mr. Trump: your obvious conspiracy with Russia to cheat to win election amounts to treason. I hope you go to prison for life. Also, your violation of the emoluments clause should be grounds for impeachment. Have a nice day. https://t.co/IGLRPhZ0rm

Notice where the quotes stop… This is @realDonaldTrump calling for shutdown of an investigation about his crimes. Really process that and tell me we're not in a constitutional crisis. Time to #Impeach45! https://t.co/X3xC2UJ0KM

Hey, TRAITOR @realdonaldtrump:
A Federal JUDGE accepted Cohen's guilty plea to CRIMINAL CHARGES.
Dershowitz is a liar (like you) who helped your
co-pedophile buddy, Epstein, get away with rape of minors…but then, YOU KNOW THAT.#trumpsaCROOK #MuellerTime #trumpRUSSIA https://t.co/IrZFHaboj6— I like????sIn????sNOTmy???????????? (@nayteer) November 30, 2018
