What was Mueller Investigating?

After the Horowitz report was released last week, I have one question: What was Mueller investigating? Supposedly he was looking into Russian collusion or interference into our election for 2 years. He found nothing but convicted a bunch of persons for lying to Congress and for tax evasion. That is fine, no one should lie to Congress and evade taxes. But the Horowitz report showed evidence that not only was the investigation into Trump started on a very thin predicate and the investigation was maintained based on 17 violation to FISA warrants, but the report showed there was Russian collusion into our election. In particular, the investigation showed the Russians provided Richard Steele misinformation that was published by the media and became known as the Trump dossier. Incidentally, the dossier was paid for by the Democratic National Committee (DNC). When Mueller was asked about the dossier, he said he did not know anything about it. I find this very hard to believe since the dossier was published in newspapers. Why wasn't Mueller interested in this information? Was the Mueller investigation as biased as the network coverage of the Trump dossier. Every network (other than Fox) and every news publication (other than National Review and the Hill) said the dossier was not used to obtain a FISA warrant? But the dossier was the only document used to obtain a warrant on Carter Page according to Horowitz. Yes, that is right an uncorroborated dossier filled with Russian misinformation and paid for by the DNC, was used so the FBI can have surveillance on a member of the Trump campaign. How is this not Russian interference? Why isn't someone in jail for this biased malfeasance after several investigations. How is this any different than Watergate? This should scare everyone.

After studying the Constitution and writing my book "Defending Freedom of Contract", I change my view about many things. One thing I changed my mind about was any type of Ex Parte Court. Why? According to Horowitz 98% of FISA warrants are issued and every Ex Parte case in my book always went against the person who had no representation. What a surprise, anyone who is not represented loses. I understand the need to be able to fight terrorism, but at what cost. My liberal friends were right when they told me the government would abuse this power. But were is the liberal outrage now? I was wrong, but how come no one else is admitting when they are wrong during this process? Do not trust the media anymore.
