Special counsel Robert Mueller is using at least two grand juries (in Virginia and Washington, D.C.) to advance a federal inquiry into possible coordinati­on between President Trump’s campaign and Russia.

I hope this doesn’t end up being a total waste of taxpayer money. Months into this investigat­ion and no legal charges supported by facts. Larry Gilbert

Two grand juries based on location, very interestin­g. I think the extremely unpopular sitting president is going to wish he never took office. Stephanie S. Mullen Fudge

Nothing but the Washington establishm­ent (Republican­s and Democrats) getting opposition research on Trump before the 2020 election. They don’t understand how mad Americans are with the lot of them. Stephen Thomas

It’s unfortunat­e that the taxpayer has to pay for this boondoggle. Robert Louis Rasmussen

Grand juries can go on for years? Trump is right. This is a witch hunt! Where is the grand jury for Hillary Clinton? Sal Maggiore

Most of us actual patriots would like to know what a foreign country did in our election. We don’t believe the lies from this administra­tion.

Trump supporters accept alternativ­e facts, the majority of Americans don’t. This administra­tion has no credibilit­y. So yes, please, shine the light on these roaches, Mueller. Americans want the truth. Mike Bigalow

Mueller should foot the bill for ripping off American taxpayers with this ridiculous investigat­ion. Tom Sfer

People only see what they want to see. That’s the purpose of the special counsel, to see what happened and who did it.

Trump may have clean hands, Trump may not. Someone might have very dirty hands, and I just want to know who. I don’t think anyone wants or hopes our president is dirty, but that may very well be the case. We’ll see. Jim Marra Jr.

Our followers shared their thoughts on special counsel Robert Mueller using multiple grand juries in Russia inquiry.

Mueller is going to find more about President Trump than Republican­s have found about Hillary Clinton. That’s what responsibl­e adults do. @Alpha98011

Keep spending our money like it’s yours. When nothing is found, Democrats should refund all the money. @djaccity

More money, more money, more money. How much more waste do we have to fund? @sly256

What a gross waste of time and resources. Yet all the accusation­s around Clinton and people ignore it. @wdisenso

Yes, it’s a grand jury and it’s about time. Looks like 2018 will be a bad year for the whole Trump family. @trinij1144
