One by one, Mueller is reaching into Trumps inner circle

Person by person, Mueller is reaching into Trumps inner circle and the parties who may have been involved in or have knowledge of an obstruction scheme (e.g., Hope Hicks). One supposes that at some point hell want to question Trump Jr., who took the June 2016 meeting, and Jared Kushner, who reportedly urged Trump to fire Comey and had meetings during the transition, one with the head of a sanctioned Russian bank and another to discuss a possible back channel to Russia.
Two things stand out that should make Trumps legal team very nervous: The number of people who can describe alleged efforts to stymie the Russia probe and the number of people with Russia contacts, some of whom had to be prompted to reveal them (e.g., Sessions to the Judiciary Committee, Kushners multiple revisions on his security clearance paperwork). Mueller continues to make progress on parallel tracks of the investigation possible obstruction and possible campaign coordination with Russians.
