More ridiculous claims from Fox News…

~ richzacaroli

One again, Fox tries to change the discussion. This morning, while the New York Times and every other news outlet were reporting the Trump campaign aid, Rick Gates, pleaded guilty to charges of conspiracy and lying to the FBI, Fox was busy trying to, again, discredit the Mueller investigation by claiming the investigation team is “heavy with Democrats”.

It is true that several of the 16 attorneys on Mueller’s team gave to Democratic down-ticket candidates in 2016. Six made no political contributions in 2016. In terms of Hilary Clinton specifically, election filings indicate that three lawyers gave her 2016 presidential campaign a total of $700. That is hardly evidence of bias.

Mueller himself is a longtime Republican, and served under two Republican presidents. And he is prohibited from choosing lawyers based on political affiliations.

Fox News… the REAL fake news.
