Where did the story about Mueller concluding his report originate ??

I do not think any comments have come from the Office of the Special Counsel?

Indeed, there do seem to be a lot of loose ends that have not been tied together? For example, the Roger Stone indictment and the details of the Trump Tower meeting come to mind.

Andrew McCabe, former acting FBI Director, had a similar question yesterday.

Perhaps this is a clever piece of manipulative propaganda?

Does anyone know where the story originated?

Seems coincidental that the investigation is due to wrap up a week after he’s confirmed.

We really need to be aware that the misinformation/disinformation stuff that gets "out there" may be intentional or may be incidental. But it's good to reserve judgment and hold off on the high dudgeon whenever a juicy tidbit is in play. I have a link to a good post at Balloon Juice in this thread:

We're going to be baited constantly from now until the election. Keep your skeptical glasses handy, and calibrate your bullshit meter accordingly.
