Mueller's Death: Trump Reacts to Former FBI Director's Passing

0:00On March 21st, former FBI director Robert Mueller has died at the age of 81. His family confirmed he passed away Friday night from unknown causes, sharing the news through a statement to the press. They expressed deep sadness and requested privacy during this time. No further details on his death have been released yet. President Donald Trump reacted swiftly on Saturday, posting on Truth Social that he was glad about the news. Trump has long held a grudge against Mueller for leading the probe into Russian interference in the 2016 election. He repeatedly called that investigation a witch hunt during his presidency. Mueller's role put the two at odds for years. Earlier reports from Mueller's family noted he had been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in the summer of 2021. That health issue led him to retire from law practice in teaching by the end of 2022, and this remains a developing story.
