2. No, it is an inflammatory story based on a court filing from lawyers for a Russian entity.

Basically a Russian entity is trying to have revealed or unsealed the sources and methods of some pieces of evidence in Mueller's investigation. Mueller's team is saying no, citing national security concerns. The lawyers snidely say in their court filing that there can't be anything too national security relevant about how Mueller obtained someone's nude selfie. Who the nude selfie belongs to, or even if there really is one, is not known or relevant. It's a way of trivializing a very real concern that Mueller's team has whilst dealing with Russian actors in this mess, that it is not merely a criminal matter but a counterintelligence and national security matter as well. Of course Russians want to know how Mueller knows what he knows -- so they can evade those techniques in the future.

3. Still trying to forget the one where

he's lounging on some bed in a silk bathrobe w a glass of booze in his hand. For a guy who doesn't drink, and acts like he's proud of it, there's just too many lyin eyes photos of him doing the opposite.
