Why did Mueller feel like he couldn't subpoena because he had to

[redstateblues]

Expedite the investigation? After two years. Something not right about that. Mr Tough Super Prosector was in a hurry? Why? Doesn’t pass the smell test.

1. court challenges take along time. he was in a hurry to warn about election attacks that are still

happening and hoping something can be done about it before another election is stolen.

2. Phone calls were probably made, and arms were probably twisted

I don't blame Mueller for being oh-so careful about both the investigation and the report (which was heavily redacted anyway).

Cheeto and his regime are thugs, and Mueller knows that more than almost anybody.

3. I can understand the urgency to finish. Plus, I'm not sure what interviewing trump

for the narrowly defined Russia matter would accomplish — other than maybe a chance to catch him in a lie.

4. Yet Ken Starr went on for, what..six years?

I think it was a combinaton of pressure from the "liberal' media and the mostly right-wing pundits complaining about it's length, and Barr basically shutting it down.
