Mueller "Going For the Kill" [View all]

Mike Allen reports that special counsel Robert Mueller “is burrowing in hard on the obstruction of justice angle.”

Mueller haunts the West Wing“Republicans close to the White House say every sign by Mueller — from his hiring of Mafia and money-laundering experts to his aggressive pursuit of witnesses and evidence — is that he’s going for the kill.”

“Trump allies fret that the White House is ill-prepared for the public showdown with Mueller that will eventually come, and should be making legal, political and constitutional arguments for the president’s right to fire Comey. Statements by Trump lawyers tend to rattle, rather than reassure, White House allies.”
