The Mueller "crap" is a mountain of factual information that has led to a longer list of indictments than Watergate produced. It's just Trump trash talk to discount this as a witch hunt, "crap," or fake news, or whatever other terminology is used by those who choose to be deliberately ignorant.
So I get that it really irks Trump supporters and apologists that his predecessor was such a contrast to the current occupant of the White House's corruption and immorality that they must invoke his name and attempt to change historical fact when it comes to his administration's accomplishments (including an extended and costly investigation led by Trey Gowdy into "Benghazi" that exonerated both President Obama and Hillary Clinton BTW).
"Crap" is a more apt description of Jim's post, though I think that even "load of crap" is probably not adequate to describe it.

One correction - Butina was indicted by a federal grand jury in Washington DC. It was referred to them by the Mueller team.
Two addition notes-
-So far charges are only on a failure to register as a agent of a foreign government. Espionage charges likely to follow.
-She was preparing to leave the country; that is why she was rounded up.
