What’s fascinating about this is that Mueller’s carping staffers are openly elevating the narrative (not their job) over prosecutorial conclusions (their only job). A prosecutor has one legitimate concern: Is there enough evidence to charge or isn’t there? If there is not, the public customarily gets no information about the evidence gathered.

If a prosecutor wants to spin an unsavory narrative about the suspect in an investigation, he or she much charge the suspect with a crime. The suspect then has all the rights the Constitution gives him to challenge the case – to show that the prosecutors cannot actually prove a crime.
The partisan Democrats Mueller recruited do not want to play by these time-honored rules.
