"They want Robert Mueller to contradict his own findings and implicate, smear the president. Give them that one soundbite that they and their friends in the media mob will play over and over and over and over and over and over and over again so they can have another 30 investigations for the next 50 years," Hannity warned.

Mr. Mueller your career law enforcement officer if you have classified top secret information on a private server does that violate the Espionage Act? Yes or No sir," Hannity said before asking numerous Hillary Clinton related question.
"Mr. Mueller at what point in your investigation did you realize there was no collusion or conspiracy? Why did the investigation continue after you learned the fundamental truth of what you were investigating?" Hannity said.
The host also read a number of questions that Fox News legal analyst Gregg Jarrett would ask.

Hannity summarized the "mission" to Republicans.
"Your mission should be to inform the American people about a dirty dossier used to literally spy on the opposition party candidate, filled with Russian lies that Robert Mueller ignored," Hannity said.
