      More & more, Mueller investig resembles the Clinton campaign. Burns thru million$$, commandeers every megaphone blasting so much noise they drown each other out & in the end looks like a bunch of corrupt crony "elites" trying to micromanage the chaos they themselves are creatinghttps://twitter.com/joanneleon/status/973224663039045634 …

      Can't make this stuff up. "The third main area Mueller is probing for potential obstruction involves Trump’s desire to fire Mueller." https://www.bloomberg.com/amp/news/articles/2018-03-12/mueller-is-said-to-weigh-putting-off-trump-obstruction-decision?__twitter_impression=true …

      I don't know how I'm supposed to know which Mueller investigation articles are bullshit. This one claims to have info from inside the Mueller investig & mult sources "current & former US officials"

      No, it actually doesn't. Moreover, it's premised on a stupid (though admittedly popular) view of the obstruction side of the investigation.

      -They claim they have multiple sources "current & former US officials" -Sources told them investig "is close to completion" which only the Mueller team could know for sure - They claim that their sources' info is a "peek into Mueller's calculations"pic.twitter.com/pT7vfNtWE9

      Where does that say "info from inside the Mueller investig"? And have you missed the entire way the WH has been creating a fiction about that obstruction investigation?

          The sentence that asserts that the obstruction investigation is "close to completion" is directly sourced to "current and former US officials" and that's information only the Mueller team could know for sure.

          And are you REALLY unfamiliar w/the "government official" often = Congress angle?

          Replying to @emptywheel

          I know that it often refers to Congress but it's not guaranteed. It's used to obscure already anonymous "official" sources in the broadest possible way.

          Except that the story being told resembles what Congress knows, not what Mueller reveals he knows with each guilty plea (again the 5 of which you seem to be ignoring).

          I'm not ignoring the guilty pleas. They are mainly after the fact "throwaway charges" used to pressure & bankrupt people into providing info to what looks like a yet another politically driven special counsel investigation

          That's of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard you say. But I get that you're certain you know what happened and so see it that way.
