JUST PATHETIC! Democrats Are Now Trashing a Federal Judge Who Exposed the Corruption of the FBI Investigation into Pres. Trump

Democrats are trashing a federal judge at the heart of Robert Mueller's probe into alleged collusion between the Kremlin and the Trump campaign in the 2016 election, accusing the judge of "unprofessional" behavior for questioning the scope of Special Counsel Robert Mueller's power.



At a hearing Friday, Judge T.S. Ellis scorched Robert Mueller's legal team, accusing them of "lying" and seeking "unfettered power." Ellis, who is overseeing the case against Paul Manafort, said it appeared Mueller was using unrelated charges against Manafort to try and score testimony they could use to effect impeachment proceedings against President Trump.



Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) said he's "concerned" the judge would question Robert Mueller's motives. His Democratic colleague, Rep. Gerald Connolly (D-Va.) called Judge Ellis "outrageous."



"It does concern me," Schiff said, that "the judge [is] questioning the motives of the special counsel."



"While it’s certainly within the judge’s prerogative to ask these questions, I don’t think it really bears on the legal issues," Schiff continued. And so I think that Bob Mueller will prevail, in the sense of being able to go forward with this litigation. I don’t think there is really any legal question about that. But, yes, it is concerning that the judge would express this opinion."



Schiff also attacked the judge for asking how much Robert Mueller's probe is costing taxpayers.



"I’m not sure that it is germane, for example, for the judge to be asking how much Bob Mueller has spent on the investigation," Schiff told CNN's Jake Tapper during an appearance on Sunday's State of the Union. "Mueller is well within his jurisdiction. I can understand the judge asking certain of these questions, although some seem to be non-germane to the legal issues involved."
