Washington Monthly has two articles that hit different looks at the Mueller report.

Martin Longman wants to know where the Counter Intelligence Report is.

The Mueller report isn’t actually close to a full account of the investigation by the special counsel, Robert Mueller. That’s not just because of the redactions. When he was hired, Mr. Mueller inherited supervision of an F.B.I. counterintelligence investigation. That is the missing piece of the Mueller report.

Nancy LeTourneau points out that we never learned the full extent of Nixon’s crimes. By resigning, he kept a lot of things secret.

One of the most memorable scenes [in All The President’s Men] is when Woodward, played by Robert Redford, meets with Deep Throat, who counsels him to “follow the money.” But I had forgotten about the scene in which those two had a subsequent meeting.
