The campaign to discredit the special counsel investigation into potential ties between Donald Trump’s presidency and Russia has intensified as the probe reaches the president’s inner circle.
While some Republican lawmakers are questioning whether Mueller’s team has a bias against Trump, far-right pundits and Fox News are suggesting something far more sinister and violent.
On Tuesday, Fox News contributor Kevin Jackson suggested Trump may be assassinated by the FBI, pointing to text messages in which FBI agent Peter Stzrok complained about Trump and mentioned an “insurance policy” against his presidency.
A day earlier, right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones warned his listeners that he believes secret operatives tied to the Clintons, the FBI and other federal agencies plan to soon attempt to murder Trump.
