The IC and the FBI have collected all of the information they need to successfully prosecute Mueller's targets, which are substantial in number. Mensch writes as if her task is complete, that she assisted with exposing previous revelations that are now part of the Trump-Russia time line. She now expresses solid confidence that Mueller has what he needs to proceed.

I'm not sure why anyone should expect an unending stream of leaks from undisclosed sources. If Mensch and Taylor have indeed done all they can for now, it would foolish to just make stuff up to stay in the news. As one who's followed both of their feeds through their web pages, I admire what they've done.

Please post a list of things she has gotten right Orrex Oct 2017 #14

Maybe their sources are out of the WH and they know only as much as we who post here? coolsandy Oct 2017 #16

And maybe their sources never existed in the first place. MineralMan Oct 2017 #18

I think this may have something to do with the reduction in twitter "reports". chowder66 Oct 2017 #32
