| Judge Denies Mueller Request for Protective Order |
| 2018-03-29 |
| h/t Instapundit A federal judge has denied Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s request for a protective order for materials gathered during discovery for the upcoming trial of former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort in Alexandria, Virginia. In a two-page order entered Wednesday morning, U.S. District Judge T.S. Ellis III said Mueller’s request was "insufficiently specific in describing the information to be subject to the requested protective order, which is, in the circumstances, excessively broad." "To be sure, there may be good reason to apply a protective order to certain specific information in this case, but that information has not been adequately identified or described," Ellis wrote. "Instead, the protective order simply refers vaguely to ’other confidential materials’ that need to be shielded from disclosure." Dismissing Mueller’s request as "anemic," Ellis went on to say the "current proposed protective order throws an unnecessarily broad cloak of secrecy over documents and information to be disclosed in discovery. And this is so especially given that the indictment in this case charges defendant with engaging in conspiracies that begin as long ago as 2005 and ended in 2014." |

| #6 And this is so especially given that the indictment in this case charges defendant with engaging in conspiracies that begin as long ago as 2005 and ended in 2014.” The alleged conspiracy took place before Trump announced his candidacy. What would be the need for a governmental cloak of secrecy unless there might have been some investigative hi-jinks. Usually, discovery information obtained through depositions are public documents. |

| #5 Mueller's anemia may be passing the buck, allowing others to maintain the facade, absolving himself all while following Deep State orders. Part of the cabal, he cannot quit or disobey or he will be neutralized. Russian Blog connects some dots: To most fully understand these “Deep State” machinations of today, this report explains, one must first go back to 5 June 1996 when the Khobar Towers Bombing attack occurred in Saudi Arabia—that was entirely a fundamentalist-Sunni operation, specifically perpetrated by Al Qaeda, which hates Shia and which also hates America’s military presence in the Middle East, and that its leader, Osama bin Laden stated his Al Qaeda had carried out—but whose Clinton regime era investigation of, led by US intelligence officials Robert Muller and James Comey, absurdly concluded Iran was responsible for. The reason then FBI Director Robert Mueller targeted Steven Hatfill in the first place, this report reveals, was his knowing that he couldn’t blame the anthrax attacks on Al Qaeda as “Deep State” operatives within the Bush regime had ordered him to do, as it would then have to be explained how this Saudi-based terror group was able to get its hands on US military produced and weaponized anthrax spores—and with Hatfill now “out of the equation”, then saw Mueller turn his sights on senior US Army biodefense researcher Bruce Ivins. Unlike Steven Hatfill, though, this report explains, Bruce Ivins, on 29 July 2008, was suicided—with Mueller, a week later, declaring that Ivins “was the sole culprit” of the 2001 anthrax attacks and closing the case forever—but that the National Academy of Sciences, in their 2011 report titled “Review of the Scientific Approaches Used During the FBI's Investigation of the 2001 Anthrax Letters”, called, in essence, absurd. The Kremlin even blames Deep State, observing: In the United States, Robert Mueller is leading the “Deep State” coup against President Trump—In Russia he would be in jail for the many crimes he’s committed. |

| #4 Hatfill was born in Saint Louis, Missouri, and graduated from Mattoon Senior High School, Mattoon, Illinois (1971), and Southwestern College in Winfield, Kansas (1975), where he studied biology. Hatfill was enlisted as a private in the U.S. Army from 1975 to 1977.[11] (In 1999, he would tell a journalist during an interview that he had been a "captain in the U.S. Special Forces", but in a subsequent investigation the Army stated that he had never served with the Special Forces.[12]) Following his Army discharge, Hatfill qualified and worked as a medical laboratory technician, but soon resolved to become a doctor. Hatfill then settled in Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) entering the Godfrey Huggins Medical School[13] in Salisbury (now Harare) in 1978. (His claimed military associations during this period included assistance as a medic with the Selous Scouts and membership in the Rhodesian SAS, but according to one journalist[14] the regimental association of the latter is "adamant Hatfill never belonged to the unit".) He graduated (after failing in 1983) with a M ChB degree in 1984 and then completed a one-year internship (1984–85) at a small rural hospital in South Africa’s North West Province. Wiki |

| #3 I'm voting both. Mueller fucked up the Anthrax investigation royally and pretty much everything else. |

#2 'I am the President of the United States I tell you, just call Bob Mueller. Bob Mueller will set all of this straight, just call him.' |

| #1 Either Mueller is incompetent or arrogant or the whole thing is kabuki in the first place. Maybe a combination of those things. |
