So what exactly about the Buzzfeed article is not "accurate" and why won't Mueller tell us?

This is a matter of public concern that we need to know. How many times have we been told we must be an "informed electorate"? How can the public understand the truth behind the Trump/Putin alliance and why their GOP minions are so mum about such important matters?

Which brings me to Mueller himself. He is and has always been a Republican. He was head of the FBI at a time when Trump and his thugs where making big bucks from Russian money and then not paying his contractors and others. Why do we think all of a sudden he is going to forget what Nixon's exposed crimes did to decimate Republican fortunes for years?

No, Mueller knows that full disclosure of Trump's crimes, domestic and foreign, would set back the GOP for at least one decade and probably at least one more. Everyone knows that there could be nothing worse for any American to do than collude with Russians to steal a federal election, let alone the White House.

Nothing has happened to Trump yet from Mueller, because nothing will happen. Tonight, Mueller told Trump that nothing will happen from his office.

...get away with it. They are a criminal enterprise that took decades to build. Mueller will not be allowed to take it down.

In case of any interference and/or blockage of his investigation, Mueller would resign and publicly declare why he is resigning.

...he needs to tell us now what specifically was "inaccurate." This is no time to be so blatantly coy.
