Robert Mueller was an American patriot and true public servant of integrity with steady leadership under difficult circumstances.
I first met him when he served as the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of California in San Francisco, where he was always responsive to our concerns about ensuring respect for all communities.
Throughout his career, Director Mueller was guided by principle, not partisanship, and remained deeply committed to the rule of law. His legacy is one of honor and duty to our democracy.
