This was from last night.The Mueller probe should never have been started in that there was no collusion and there was no crime. It was based on fraudulent activities and a Fake Dossier paid for by Crooked Hillary and the DNC, and improperly used in FISA COURT for surveillance of my campaign. WITCH HUNT!— Donald J.

I think everybody here already knows that the initial FBI investigation was NOT launched due to the Steel dossier, but instead inspired by a drunken chat that George Papadopoulos had with an Australian diplomat.
Trump is just hoping that nobody remembers that.
Here are today's tweets.
Ah, Trump's "executive time" has inspired yet another tweet based on fake news from the Fox News entertainment division.Wow, watch Comey lie under oath to Senator G when asked “have you ever been an anonymous source...or known someone else to be an anonymous source...?” He said strongly “never, no.” He lied as shown clearly on @foxandfriends.— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 18, 2018
Spent very little time with Andrew McCabe, but he never took notes when he was with me. I don’t believe he made memos except to help his own agenda, probably at a later date. Same with lying James Comey. Can we call them Fake Memos?— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 18, 2018
It should be noted yet again that Robert Mueller himself is in fact a Republican, as is his boss Rod Rosenstein.Why does the Mueller team have 13 hardened Democrats, some big Crooked Hillary supporters, and Zero Republicans? Another Dem recently added...does anyone think this is fair? And yet, there is NO COLLUSION!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 18, 2018
Not that it should matter since investigators do not allow their political points of view to shape their investigations.
Now some of this could be dismissed as Trump simply blowing off steam on Twitter if it were not for this.
Courtesy of the The Daily Beast:
President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer, John Dowd, told The Daily Beast on Saturday morning that he hopes Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein will shut down special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe into Russia’s election interference.
“I pray that Acting Attorney General Rosenstein will follow the brilliant and courageous example of the FBI Office of Professional Responsibility and Attorney General Jeff Sessions and bring an end to alleged Russia Collusion investigation manufactured by McCabe’s boss James Comey based upon a fraudulent and corrupt Dossier,” Dowd then wrote.
After that was reported by a number of news outlets along with the assumption that Dowd was speaking on behalf of the president, he tried to walk it back:
Woodruff called into MSNBC to speak with Joy Reid about the report, but at one point shared this:
“He just emailed me to say that he hopes I will share with you all that he was speaking in his personal capacity and was not speaking on behalf of the President… When he initially emailed me this morning, I asked him, ‘Are you giving me this quote on behalf of the President?’ He replied, ‘Yes, speaking as his counsel’… Now he’s emailing me to walk that back.”
It has been beyond clear for a few weeks now that Trump is trying to find some way to fire Robert Mueller, and that has now become clearer than ever.
I think everybody is prepared for that eventuality and in the history books it will likely be noted as the day that the Trump presidency started to unravel completely.
