4. The FBI investigation into collusion, which began in July 2016, was invented as an âÂÂexcuseâ for losing the November 2016 election. Nope.

6. Mueller, who is qualified to lead the investigation precisely because of his experience in the FBI, should now resign because of it. Nope

7. This is all crazy. ItâÂÂs illogical. And itâÂÂs all a lie. Worst of all, itâÂÂs a lie intended to bury a very real threat to American democracy
