Fox News personality Judge Jeanine Pirro has had enough with Robert Mueller and the special counsel investigation and warned that the American people had enough.
“We’re at the point where people are about to revolt because they don’t have the right to run Washington this way,” Pirro railed at the end of her segment on Mueller and corruption within the FBI and Department of Justice. “It’s more than a constitutional crisis.”
Her comments came during a heated discussion that Mueller and his team may have illegally obtained emails as part of their investigation. The claim was first floated by Trump transition team lawyer, Kory Langhofer.
“Everybody at DOJ knows that when you get a huge cache of documents you have to set up what’s called a ‘taint team’ to make sure … to go through the documents to separate the privileged material from the legitimate material and make sure the lawyers on the case don’t ever see those privileged documents,” said Fox News legal analyst Gregg Jarrett. “Now according to the transition team lawyer, the folks at the special counsel’s office admitted last Friday in a phone conversation, we didn’t set up the taint team.”
The line is becoming an attack on the legitimacy of Mueller and the special counsel.
“You’ve got [Deputy Attorney General Rod] Rosenstein with all of his conflicts, he’s supervising Mueller who’s best friends with Comey and I could go on and on. This is awful,” Pirro fulminated.

Fox News' Jesse Watters: His 10 Most Offensive Moments (Videos)
Shortly after O'Reilly was ousted from Fox News, Watters took his own vacation from the network after coming under fire for making a comment about First Daughter Ivanka Trump, which some interpreted as inappropriate sexual innuendo.
Watters' recurring segment on "The O'Reilly Factor" involved sending the host out to various events and locations across the country for man-on-the-street style interviews that mock various cultural subgroups in their own communities. In a 2016 segment, Watters went after Italian Americans at the Feast of San Gennaro festival.
One of Watters' most controversial segments came in the form of a 2016 venture into New York's Chinatown. In the heavily criticized piece, Watters turned his signature schtick on Chinese Americans, resulting in a blatantly racist segment that played on Asian stereotypes and openly mocked its subjects.
Watters' October 2016 venture to the Amish community in Pennsylvania was turned into one recurring punchline -- over the fact that the Amish don't vote or pay much attention to presidential politics. "Lucky you," he tells several people.
In 2007, O'Reilly sent Watters to ambush Bill Moyers in the street after the PBS host released a documentary criticizing the Bush administration for the Iraq War. Bill O'Reilly would later go on to call that segment a contributing factor in Moyers' decision to retire.

In 2015, Watters went to Penn Station to criticize the "rise of homelessness" in New York City, pointedly asking those sleeping at the station about their drug habits and what they did to make money on the streets.
On the anniversary of 9/11, Watters went to a convention for Muslim Americans to ask them about terrorism and Islamic radicals. When a woman criticized the media for linking terrorism to the Islamic religion, Watters and O'Reilly both balked at the suggestion that "Christian terrorism" could even exist.
In 2009, Amanda Terkel, then the managing editor of Think Progress, wrote a column in which she said she was "followed, harassed, and ambushed" by Watters while on vacation after she ran a column criticizing Bill O'Reilly for his comments toward rape survivors.
Watters was caught on video getting into a fight at the 2016 White House Correspondents' Dinner afterparty with The Huffington Post's Ryan Grim. It was later reported that Grim approached Watters with a camera asking him to apologize to Terkel for his behavior in 2009.
O'Reilly sent Watters to Philadelphia for a tone-deaf segment about racism in which he mocked the Black Lives Matter movement, criticized political correctness and generally failed to elevate the conversation surrounding race relations in America.
