Witness: Mueller Grand Jury Looks Like 'a Black Lives Matter Rally'


By Debra Heine January 2, 2018


The federal grand jury handing down indictments in Special Counsel Robert Mueller's Russia probe looks like a Bernie Sanders or Black Lives Matter rally according to a witness who recently testified before the panel.
Mueller's Russia investigation into President Donald Trump's alleged ties to Russia was already looking fatally compromised by politics with the overwhelmingly Democratic and anti-Trump makeup of his team. There is also an obvious conflict of interest in the probe due to Mueller’s friendship with former FBI Director James Comey, who leaked his own confidential memo for the purpose of pressuring Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein into appointing a special counsel.
Now this: “The grand jury room looks like a Bernie Sanders rally,” the witness told Richard Johnson of Page Six. “Maybe they found these jurors in central casting, or at a Black Lives Matter rally in Berkeley.”
According to Page Six's source, eleven of the twenty jurors are African-Americans and two were wearing “peace" t-shirts. “There was only one white male in the room, and he was a prosecutor,” the witness said.
