They are making some dubious speculative conclusions in this story. MGKrebs Dec 2017 #23
Not at all. Just applying logic to known facts. Fred Sanders Dec 2017 #35
The main thrust of the story is that Mueller is protecting himself MGKrebs Dec 2017 #79
You misunderstood the point and the facts. Fred Sanders Dec 2017 #89
Well if he's not trying to protect himself, why does he need to pull an ace? MGKrebs Dec 2017 #90

We know nothing about any "incriminating" emails. That was a comment MGKrebs Dec 2017 #82

this is almost the exact story bill palmer posted days ago? getagrip_already Dec 2017 #32
