On the eve of Labor Day weekend, and with the midterm elections roughly two months away, there has been a lot of speculation when we will next see news from the Mueller team. Executive Editor Mike Allen appeared on Morning Joe today to provide insight and explanation on what we can next expect from the investigation led by Special Counsel Robert Mueller.

Context: Meet the Press anchor (and Political Director for NBC News) Chuck Todd made news yesterday when he speculated that today, the Friday before the long weekend, might bring a Mueller bombshell.

Allen tapped down expectation a bit, explaining that the office of Special Counsel is likely on its own timeline adding that they won’t succumb to “taunts” from the “other side.” He then revealed that “the two topics mentioned to me by lawyers close to this investigation when they talked about what might happen today,” are legal questions surrounding Roger Stone, Jr. and Wikileaks.

Stone himself is widely accepted to be the unnamed person in the indictment of 12 Russian agents in the Mueller probe and raised eyebrows when he his anti-Hillary tweets appeared to coordinate with Wikileaks release of hacked DNC emails that were, at best, politically embarrassing to the Clinton campaign.

Republican strategist Susan Del Percio then asked Allen about the “so-called rule” of not putting anyone under indictment until Election Day before asking what happens when the President Trump’s legal team Rudy Giuliani has ostensibly threatened Mueller by “unleashing his own report,” if the Special Investigator is not forthcoming on his own timeline.

In Allen’s esteem, Mueller’s next actions “won’t be based on taunts from the other side or anything else from the other side,” adding “If one word comes up again and again when you talk to people who have worked with Mueller and interacted with his team on this investigation, they say it is methodical.”
