What do you think Mueller's thought process is?

I'm curious what Mueller and his staff might be doing seeing all the news reports. Devin Nunes releasing a top secret memo to hurt the FBI. Most top level officials being forced out of the FBI, Paul Ryan calling for a cleansing of the FBI. Trump talking about prosecuting Mueller.

You think Mueller's team is worried? I would think dropping indictments on people like Nunes and Ryan would be done now to change the narrative and get them off the FBI attacks, but we're not seeing that and Trump would just pardon them.

I wonder how Mueller deals with such a blatant attack on the FBI and obstruction/crimes by most of the Republican party.

play right into their hands and they will use that to make the case that the FBI is out to get them and this is all conspiratorial.

I'm afraid that the Repugs might have placed Mueller into a 'dammed if you do, dammed if you don't' position.
