4. The investigation is nowhere close to being done

Whenever you hear this information, it always comes from anonymous sources and it is ALWAYS wrong. According to Seth Abramson, there were SEVEN times in 2018 where the media was leaked a story about the Mueller investigation being close to wrapping up. That is once every 7 1/2 weeks.

The source is an anonymous person within the White House and it's most likely getting information from Trump himself, or somebody right next to Trump (Rudy G, Don Jr, Kushner, etc)

If you keep telling people that indictments are coming any day now and that the probe is almost done - and the indictment doesn't happen and the investigation keeps going, it makes the probe look like a fishing expedition or (gasp) a WITCH HUNT.

Roger Stone has claimed he's about to be indicted "any day now" since last Spring. Don Jr claimed similar in November. Neither one has been indicted.

Speculation on my part, but based on Stone's rantings on Instagram last week, I think Team Mueller is looking to flip Corsi, which could lead to Stone indictments... and, then Mueller looks to try to flip Stone to get the goods on Don Jr, Kushner or Donny Dollhands himself.
