Opinion: If you have nothing to hide, let Mueller do his job

The current White House position on Mueller's investigations is very troubling. Recently, right-wing media as well as a few White House officials have signaled warning alarms throughout the entire country. Their stances were seen almost like a threat that they'd shut down Mueller's entire inquiries.

One woman on Fox News called reported bias within the FBI's investigations into Russian collusion 'ridiculous, extreme' and called for the investigation to be completely scrapped with Robert Mueller as well as all of the FBI agents involved in the inquiries that had reports of bias to be dismissed 'immediately'.

Well, to shorten it, she went on for quite a number of minutes in effort to slam the Mueller investigations and in effort to discredit their past, and any potential future charges made. Recently, their inquiries ended with Paul Manafort and Rick Gates pleading not guilty though being placed under house arrest with George Papadopolous and Michael Flynn pleading guilty to lying to the FBI.

Ever since Flynn was arrested, the White House and the right-wing media have become shaky. It may have been because their investigation was stepping so close to Trump's inner-circle, that mainstream media on Trump's side as well as his supporters may fear that the President might actually be guilty.

Trump's attorneys recently accused Mueller's investigation team of 'illegally obtaining over 10,000 emails' from the transition team. Mueller's team refused and rebuked the claim, debunking them as false saying that the emails were public record and also mentioning to Buzzfeed news that they did not commit anything illegal in order to obtain the evidence that came from the transition team's emails

Now, you tell me, but if the transition team and Trump's campaign has absolutely nothing to hide - like President Trump continues to claim, even after guilty pleas of hypocritical lies between his officials and Mueller's team - then why exactly are the Republicans associated with Trump trying so desperately to shut Mueller down?

A Republican official on ABC News told them that he really doubts Mueller would be unseated, saying that Trump would be headed down a 'valley of hell' if they do so. Lindsay Graham, a Republican primary nominee in the 2016 election, said Republicans would bring up huge issues for themselves by taking off Mueller.

If Mueller is unseated for something as idiotic as two of his agents apparently texting anti-Trump, anti-Chelsea Clinton and many other text messages before being placed on the special counsel's inquiries; then it's fair to assume that the Republicans associated with Trump are desperately trying to hide something.

Putin, who is the top tier Russian of which many Democrats assume Trump made a pact with Trump to help get him elected, recently told Trump that he did not try to influence and did not meddle in the 2016 election. Trump then told the Press what Putin says, saying he thinks [Putin] 'really means it'. He then backtracked.

Meanwhile, Russian president Vladimir Putin remains one of the only global leaders of which Donald Trump has not gone head-to-head with and hasn't yet argued with. This is extremely coincidental, if it is a coincidence, considering Russia was one of America's largest threats virtually any year before 2017 when Trump took power.

Now, whether or not Russian officials colluded with Donald Trump to help get him elected, the White House and Fox News' attempts to hinder the investigation and halt it to avoid any future contact and charges is definitely making them seem even more guilty than anybody could've presumed before.
