Bush Chooses Prosecutor to Reshape FBI

Law: U.S. Atty. Mueller is picked to lead an agency that is struggling with its credibility. A bruising nomination fight is probably avoided.

July 06, 2001 JAMES GERSTENZANG and ERIC LICHTBLAU TIMES STAFF WRITERS

WASHINGTON — President Bush on Thursday chose Robert Mueller, an experienced government prosecutor who is now the U.S. attorney in San Francisco, to direct the FBI and wrestle with the spate of problems that has plagued the bureau.

In nominating Mueller, 56, for the 10-year term to succeed Louis J. Freeh, Bush took a course likely to avoid an angry, politically tinged confirmation battle in the Senate. Still, the hearing on Mueller's nomination is virtually certain to turn into an in-depth look at the agency's recent blunders.

As Mueller stood beside him in the White House Rose Garden on Thursday, Bush referred obliquely to the travails the bureau has encountered.

Prosecutor nominated to head FBI / `No-nonsense' ex-Marine

MICHAEL HEDGES, Houston Chronicle WashingtonBureau Staff

FRI 07/06/2001 Houston Chronicle

WASHINGTON - Robert S. Mueller III, a career prosecutor and former Marine with a reputation for making tough decisions, was called upon by President Bush on Thursday to resurrect an FBI beset by high-profile blunders.

After a lengthy search, Mueller was picked to head the FBI at a critical point in the history of the nation's largest law enforcement agency. Those who know him said he has the right qualities for the job.

"He is a tough, no-nonsense former Marine who does not brook incompetence," said former Washington U.S. Attorney Joseph diGenova.

"One thing I would emphasize about Bob Mueller: He is a guy who will know how to fire people when that is necessary."

In a brief White House ceremony, Bush said, "The FBI must be ready to protect Americans from new types of criminals who will use modern technology to defraud and disrupt our lives . . . And it must do all this with a firm commitment to safeguarding the constitutional rights of our citizens."

The president said, "Bob Mueller's experience and character convinced me that he's ready to shoulder these responsibilities."

FBI is asked to probe allegations women were offered cash to accuse Mueller of sex assault

UPDATED: Tue., Oct. 30, 2018, 8:20 p.m.

By Chris Sommerfeldt

New York Daily News

Robert Mueller recently asked the FBI to investigate a possible scam in which women were offered cash to fabricate sexual misconduct accusations against him, a representative for the special counsel revealed Tuesday.

In a rare statement, Mueller’s top spokesman, Peter Carr, said the special counsel team became aware of the alleged payoff scheme last week.

“We immediately referred the matter to the FBI for investigation,” Carr said, calling the claims against Mueller “false.”

The FBI declined to comment.

A U.S. official confirmed to the New York Daily News that the special counsel’s office learned of the apparent scheme from reporters inquiring about receiving emails from a Florida woman who alleged right-wing conspiracy theorist Jack Burkman had offered her more than $20,000 to come forward with misconduct claims against Mueller, who’s probing possible collusion between President Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign and the Russian government.

The woman’s email, which was screen-grabbed and posted on social media by several journalists, states someone identifying himself as Bill Christensen recently called and asked her questions about Mueller, whom she said she worked for as a paralegal at the San Francisco offices of law firm Pillsbury, Winthrop, Shaw & Pittman in the 1970s.

Christensen, speaking in a British accent, told the unidentified woman he represented Burkman, a GOP lobbyist infamous for perpetuating a debunked conspiracy theory claiming Hillary Clinton was responsible for the 2016 death of Democratic National Committee staffer Seth Rich.

“He then offered to pay off all of my credit card debt, plus bring me a check for $20,000 if I would do one thing,” the woman said.

She said Christensen was reluctant to explain specifics and urged her to download Signal, a secure messaging app.

“I downloaded the app and he called me on that app a few minutes later,” the woman said. “He said (and I will never forget exactly what it was), ‘I want you to make accusations of sexual misconduct and workplace harassment against Robert Mueller, and I want you to sign a sworn affidavit to that effect.’”

The woman says she “immediately” hung up and deleted the app.

“I didn’t see Robert Mueller very much when I worked at Pillsbury, but when I did see him, he was always very polite to me, and was never inappropriate,” she said. “I don’t know what these people are looking for but I’m not going to be part of some kind of Washington, D.C., drama for any price.”

Mueller worked as an attorney at Pillsbury between 1973 and 1976. A spokesman for the law firm did not respond to emailed questions.

Within minutes of Carr’s statement, Burkman posted a video on Facebook announcing he plans to host a news conference in Arlington, Va., on Thursday focused on “the first of the sex assault victims of Robert Mueller.”

“Mueller has done bad things to a number of women, the first of whom is coming out this Thursday,” Burkman said, without providing evidence or specifics.

Burkman later tweeted that “the allegation of paying a woman” is “false” but wouldn’t comment on whether Christensen works for him or who he is.

NBC News reported the odd suspected plot may have been concocted by Surefire Intelligence, a self-professed “intel agency” with a website whose domain records contain an email address belonging to Jacob Wohl, a pro-Trump troll known for spreading misinformation and far-right conspiracy theories. The website also has a contact number that redirects to a voicemail that belongs to Wohl’s mother.

Wohl told the Daily News in a Twitter message he has nothing to do with the alleged plot and that he only tweeted about the matter ahead of Carr’s announcement because he had heard of it “from a friend of a friend who’s a lobbyist in DC.” The 20-year-old pro-Trump activist stopped responding following the Surefire Intelligence revelations.

Separately, Vermont Law School professor and author Jennifer Taub confirmed on Twitter she had been contacted by Surefire Intelligence about her “past encounters” with Mueller. She said she has never met Mueller.

Trump and his allies have long tried to discredit Mueller, accusing him of orchestrating a politically motivated “witch hunt,” even though his probe into the president’s campaign has produced dozens of indictments against Trump associates and Russian government operatives, including Trump’s former campaign chairman Paul Manafort and national security adviser Michael Flynn.

Mueller is widely expected to deliver key findings of his collusion probe following next week’s congressional midterm elections.

from my private journal as Kerry Burgess: 11/7/2006 2:42 PM

I started thinking this morning about a jacket I used to wear long ago. I bought it around the time Lynn and I started bicycling, which I think was in 1999. I wore that jacket every time I went cycling and some parts of it were green and other parts blue. I remember one time, after I had been wearing it for a long time, I noticed that the logo emblem on one side of the chest was labeled as “Brooks.” I can remember feeling something like surprise that it was labeled “Brooks.”

7 Astronauts Fly High in Orbit, Draw Blood in Name of Science

October 19, 1993 From Associated Press

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. — Columbia and its seven astronauts blasted off on a belated mission Monday, carrying 48 rats, that will be poked, prodded and in some cases decapitated by guillotine and dissected in orbit.

All in the name of science.

Five of the rats are part of UC Irvine research on the effects of weightlessness. Scientists Kenneth Baldwin and Vincent Caiozzo have designated a series of muscle mass tests for the five, hoping to learn more about why and how loss of gravity causes muscles to change in humans and animals.

The astronauts aboard Columbia quickly got started on their 14 days of space checkups, drawing blood from one another, measuring their blood pressure and noting any symptoms of motion sickness.

The mission--the longest ever planned for a space shuttle--is intended to help scientists develop measures for counteracting the debilitating effects of space travel, including changes in muscle mass. Astronauts will test the UCI rats in space, while Baldwin and Caiozzo are simultaneously testing comparison rats on the ground at UC Irvine labs.

In an interview Monday in Irvine, Baldwin said the UCI researchers believe the tests will result in knowledge useful for humans on land as well as in space.

"We think the information we learn from the tests will apply to people who go through stages of aging, as well as to people who have injuries and have a dramatic reduction in physical activities," Baldwin said.

The two Irvine scientists are scheduled to greet Columbia when it lands at Edwards Air Force Base in Los Angeles County on Nov. 1. They will then examine firsthand their lab rats and make additional tests.

Columbia blasted from its Florida launch pad Monday morning after two previous delays.

"Guys, the third time's a charm," orbiter test director Brian Monborne assured the crew before liftoff.

Delayed 10 seconds by a stray Navy plane, the 2,000-ton spaceship rose from its seaside pad at 7:53 a.m. PDT and tore through three decks of clouds on its way to a 176-mile-high orbit.

Two crew members had catheters threading through their veins for launch--Martin Fettman, the first U.S. veterinarian in space, and Shannon Lucid, a biochemist who became the first woman to fly in space four times. The catheters were hooked to white backpacks with floating cables, making the two look like a pair of bees.

In addition to the UCI rats being used for tests of muscle mass, other rats on the Columbia will be tested for such things as bone loss in space.

Throughout the mission, Fettman and the others will draw blood from the 2- to 3-month-old male rodents, inject isotopes and hormones, and collect the animal droppings to measure calcium content, an indicator of bone loss.

Astronauts Check Body Changes During Tests on Weightlessness

October 20, 1993 From Associated Press

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. — Astronauts aboard the shuttle Columbia drank water laced with oxygen isotopes, nitrogen and calcium Tuesday in tests to monitor body changes during weightlessness.

The crew members also gave each other shots of chemicals that were traced through their bodies to measure changes in blood volume, kidneys, bones and muscles. Blood, urine and saliva samples also were collected on the first full day of the planned two-week medical research mission.

In another test, the astronauts monitored their heartbeats with an ultrasound device developed by David Wolf, one of the crew's two physicians. They also exercised on a stationary cycle and collected the droppings of laboratory rats.

The crew had to open the door on one of the two animal enclosures and turn on a fan to cool the 24 inhabitants. The enclosure was a few degrees warmer than desired.

"All the rats look pretty healthy and happy," said Columbia's veterinarian, Martin Fettman. "We're just a little concerned about the rats in cage two because of the vacuum, the hurricane that goes by them with the cage door open and the (fan) on."

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration wants the five men and two women to collect as much data as possible early in the flight, while the body is still adapting to weightlessness. Scientists said that is a major limitation of Russia's space program--even though cosmonauts have spent as much as a year in orbit, it is difficult for them to gather medical data during the first few days.

Muscles weaken in space and bones soften. NASA wants to develop measures to counteract these and other side effects, such as diminished immunity, reduced red blood cells and loss of balance.

The only other shuttle mission devoted to medical research, a nine-day flight in 1991, indicated among other things that the body produces enough muscle protein in weightlessness but that the protein breaks down faster.

Tuesday, like launch day, was full of experiments. "I think that we'll be fortunate if we can keep up this pace," NASA program scientist Frank Sulzman said. "We know that for a 14-day mission we have to schedule things so that we don't have the crew working nonstop."

October 23, 1993 From Times Staff and Wire Reports

Columbia's pilots landed the space shuttle again and again on a computer, said mission controllers at Cape Canaveral, Fla. For the first time, the shuttle carries a laptop computer with graphics and a control stick to simulate landings. The idea is to sharpen pilots' flying skills while the spaceship orbits. Columbia's 14-day medical research mission is the longest shuttle flight ever planned.
