>The tell was when Barr, who is a good friend of Mueller, said in his testimony that he thinks the letter was authored by some snippy staffers on Mueller's team. Considering how well he knows Mueller, you can essentially take that as a fact.
I think you nailed it with this statement, if not your whole theory. That "snippy" comment from Barr may have been my favorite moment in the whole hearing. I agree that it was very telling. And note how Joe DiGenova ( I think it's him doing it) has been referring to the SC report as the Weismann report.
My mind starts going all directions with different possible theories, but I'm content to just watch the movie. We'll find out eventually who's team Mueller was on. I do hope his congressional testimony will be open. I would venture to bet it would be the most watched ever.
