Mueller must almost be horror movie scary to those guys now.

This sounds weeks after weeks, more and more like proper interrogation

For real, these guys believed they could make a deal with Putin without getting compromised for the rest of their lives, figured firing Comey was a smart move that could be spun and covered up easily and thought their personal and digital backchannels to Russia wouldn't be picked up by worldwide intelligence agencies...
...they're utter morons and that's why we know so much already.
They've probably convinced themselves they can handle Mueller easily.

why does it feel that Mueller is constantly reacting to the WaPo/NYT/etc releases as opposed to digging up his own stuff?

Am interested in what happens but to be honest I am a bit meh now when it comes to Mr Trump. It's a matter of time before it comes down. Even if he lasts the full term I struggle to imagine he will be re-elected and eventually this Mueller enquiry will strip him to almost nothing.
Hopefully any really damaging legislation can be fixed when his time is up.

Delicious, but why not link to the CNN article instead of AOL's summary of it.

Honest question, could Trump order the Secret Service to lie under oath?

in this case I woulkd say that Mueller and his team are more akin to an Eldritch Horror. Where Mueller may very well be Cthulhu to the Trump/team

Mueller is pretty scary for them but this is likely the person that terrifies the Trump family the most:

Considering there was that report that he apparently treats them like shit I can't imagine they would...

They can't get a cover story straight between the president, the president's son-in-law and the president's son.
Even if they somehow take a crash course in tradecraft, there is no way they're going to spin a consistent tale with a contingent of civil servants who have no intrinsic motivation to aid them.

At least you can talk. Who are you?
If he was able to pay them, sure
I was thinking Courage the cowardly dog. The farmer pulls out a giant Mueller mask and photoshop Trump on Courage.

I'm tired and read this as Waffle House staffers at first and was very, very confused.

You are reading it backwards. Mueller's investigation is a black box; all of the info we are getting about it is from reporters asking questions around the periphery. When a big story hits, it gives reporters clues about where to dig.
So here, once the Don Jr. story hit, reporters knew that it was probable that Mueller would investigate it, so they ran the story down until they could find sources that bore out their hunch.

Not going to be surprised if Don jr takes the wrap for his dad then Don Sr pardons him before his son ever sees the inside of a jail cell.
