THE BERTRAND REPORT 05/23/2018 MUELLER INVESTIGATION IS ACTUALLY ILLEGAL

Bertrand Daily Report The War For Our Mind & Soul Continues


Subject: Mueller Investigation Illegal, Violation of "Appointments Clause"

Ed Note:

Deputy AG Rosenstein violated the "Appointments Clause (Article II, Section 2, Clause 2)" of the United States Constitution by appointing Mueller to the "Russian Collusion" investigation.

Under the "Clause" Robert Mueller was not confirmed by the Senate and is acting (within) the Executive Branch of government as a "Principle Officer" and essentially makes Mueller more powerful than a U.S. Attorney that requires an appointment by the President and confirmed by the Senate.

Because Rosenstein doesn't know what the hell he is doing and Jeff Sessions is out-to-lunch, the powers of investigation, broad and off the original intent, Mueller is conducting an illegal investigation and "all subpoenas and indictments are null and void."  

"The Appointments Clause is part of Article II, Section 2, Clause 2 of the United States Constitution, which empowers the President of the United States to nominate, and with the advice and consent (confirmation) of the United States Senate, appoint public officials. Although the Senate must confirm certain "principal" officers (including ambassadorsCabinet secretaries, federal judges, and United States Attorneys), Congress may by law delegate the Senate's advice and consent role when it comes to "inferior" officers (to the President alone, or the courts of law, or the heads of departments)."

The "scales of justice" fell on the floor and Rosenstein kicked it under the table. This sham on the American people, in complete violation of the U.S. Constitution....including the actions of Obama/Hillary, FBI and DoJ, is a disgusting and illegal coup against President Trump.

The appointment of Robert Mueller violates the Appointments Clause of the Constitution…

Posted on 


Mueller is not an inferior appointee, but a principal appointee as understood under our constitutional. His powers are more akin to an United States attorney, not an assistant United States attorney. Moreover, his boss, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, treats him as a principal officer — that is, Mueller is mostly free to conduct his investigation with few limits or restraints. The parameters of his appointment were extraordinarily broad in the first instance, and have only expanded since then. Indeed, Mueller is more powerful than most United States attorneys, all of whom were nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate as principal officers.

Furthermore, Rosenstein mostly rubber stamps Mueller’s decisions and is not involved in the regular management and oversight of Mueller to any significant extent, underscoring Mueller’s role not as an inferior officer but a principal officer. As such, Mueller’s appointment violates the Appointments Clause. Mueller would’ve had to be nominated for Senate confirmation like any other principal officer in the Executive Branch. Rosenstein did not have the constitutional power to appoint a principal officer on his own anymore than the President himself does.

To do otherwise is to defy the procedure established by the Framers for making such consequential executive appointments.

It follows, then, that every subpoena, indictment, and plea agreement involving the Mueller investigation is null and void. Every defendant, suspect, witness, etc., in this matter should challenge the Mueller appointment as a violation of the Appointments Clause.

H/T to Northwestern Law School Professor Steven Calabresi, who raised many of these points, and more, with me and a few other friends and colleagues over the weekend, in a well-researched opinion he shared with us. He deserves great credit. I agree completely with his analysis. Please do not miss my radio show this evening or LevinTV, where I will more thoroughly address this. Don’t miss either !
