Mueller Leaves a Trail of Breadcrumbs


December 3, 2018 at 7:04 am EST By Taegan Goddard

Garrett Graff: “One of the least-noticed elements of the special counsel’s approach is that all along, he has been making his case bit by bit, in public, since his very first court filing. With his major court filings so far, Mueller has already written more than 290 pages of the ‘Mueller Report.’ And there are still lots of loose ends in those documents — breadcrumbs Mueller is apparently leaving for later.”

“By making such detailed filings, Mueller is actually increasing his burden of proof — suggesting a supreme confidence that he has the goods.”

“And by making so much public as he goes along, Mueller is also insuring against his probe being shut down or otherwise curtailed by the White House.”

Mueller is a brilliant prosecutor, but he is definitely a master at conducting an investigation in a way that cannot be shut down. I am in awe of Mr. Mueller.
