Tight-lipped?

All I've been reading and hearing about, leading up to Mueller's testimony, is how much he's not going to talk about. That concerns me.

I sure hope enough is talked about to really have an impact.

These are extraordinary times for our country and we need people like him to tell us as much as they can.

Soon it will be, "Gee, I vaguely remember a guy named Mueller. Who is he, anyway?"

There was a time when he could have made a great impact. He chose not to. This latest round will fizzle as well.

The leaders must see some benefit to having him appear, being so dogged in their persistence. (unless they are pursuing it just to prove a point?) But Mueller has previously stated that he will not go beyond what has already been made public. Mueller: "The report is my testimony. I would not provide information beyond that which is already public in any appearance before Congress." Are we to believe he has changed his mind? Can be exhorted? Coerced? I'm doubtful.
