Trump’s Budget Includes $10 Million for Mueller Probe

President Donald Trump’s budget for fiscal year 2019 includes $10 million for special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian election meddling and possible Trump-Russia collusion. The figure, which matches the office’s current budget, suggests that the probe is likely to last well into 2019 despite White House officials’ public pronouncements that the investigation would wrap up soon. “We’re not looking for these guys to close up shop, but we are interested in trying to get the president’s piece of this resolved quickly,” White House attorney Ty Cobb told Politico.
