Millions on paying all these guys in just a few months. And there’s no collusion. After all that. Now he wants to grab Trump’s bank records and the records of his family based on what? A fishing expedition to find something wrong or embarrassing to be able to take him down.

Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s office revealed Tuesday that the first few months of his Russia investigation cost taxpayers a total of nearly $7 million.
The sum includes $3.2 million in direct investigation expenses covering things like pay, supplies and rent; $1.7 million was for salary and benefits.
Then there are the $3.5 in “indirect expenses,” covering expenses like agents working on raids or interviews and other government contractors. The office said those expenses would have been incurred “irrespective of the existence of the SCO.“
The report covers the period from May 17, the date of Mueller’s appointment, through Sept. 30, the end of the federal fiscal year.
According to the Justice Department, the budget was approved by Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.
