A Message From Robert Mueller:

John Cassidy: “After CNN published its story on Friday night, some Democrats and commentators suggested that the Trump Administration may have known the Mueller indictments were coming and leaked the Steele story to create a smokescreen… Plausible as that theory sounds, it, too, is conjecture.”

“What isn’t speculation is the fact that, five months into his investigation, Mueller has brought a first set of criminal charges. By the standards of recent special prosecutors, that is fast work, and it confirms Mueller’s reputation as someone who doesn’t like to dally. Now that he has started arresting people, there is no reason to suppose he will stop. And that is precisely the message he wants to send.”

antsy. fake news is has always spewed lies, but even Murdoch go into the fray and ordered WSJ and NY Post to write articles telling Mueller to resign. Seems like if not all, GOP congress is supporting what t-rump is saying. Party before country.

It's not surprising that Mueller already has sufficient evidence and testimony to indict somebody.

I'm feeling skeptical, but hopeful. This is really our only shot at some kind of normalcy.

Usually it's right after Trump tweets or does something particularly obnoxious. Mueller knows how to rattle Trump and he's executing perfectly.

He must have been a very formidable prosecutor.
