Three or four weeks ago, a news report said Mueller was ready to end investigation?

The Office of Special Counsel was forced to come out and say that the investigation would not be ending the next week. Was Mueller being pressured to close his investigation at that time? Was Barr following Trump's orders to end it, but Mueller balked?

There is no doubt that Trump wanted it to end. And Barr wanted to please his boss.

Mueller did not seem ready to end his investigation. Was he pressured at that specific time to end it? Perhaps?

And jackass reporters like Ken Dilanian have all their sources on the Republican side, so the DOJ were probably leaking to him.
