All eyes and ears are on former special counsel Robert Mueller today. Republicans hope to highlight what they see as a faulty premise for the Mueller probe. Democrats hope he'll say something to incriminate President Donald Trump, or at least bring more Americans to understand what they see to be the president's wrongdoings. But how many times will Mueller refuse to say much at all? When he spoke publicly about the report in May, Mueller said that the report would...
