"Mr. Mueller ran the bureau for 12 years and is fast friends with Mr. Comey, whose firing by Mr. Trump triggered his appointment as special counsel.
The reluctance to cooperate with a congressional inquiry compounds doubts related to this clear conflict of interest."
"All of this reinforces our doubts about Mr. Mueller's ability to conduct a fair and credible probe of the FBI's considerable part in the Russia-Trump drama,"
The Wall Street Journal calls upon Robert Mueller to step down "in favor of someone more credible." and calls for an investigation into whether Democrats and the FBI colluded with Russia, rather than Donald Trump.
"It is no slur against Mr. Mueller's integrity to say that he lacks the critical distance to conduct a credible probe of the bureau he ran for a dozen years," the editorial said. "He could best serve the country by resigning to prevent further political turmoil over that conflict of interest."
