Slow and Steady, Bobby Three Sticks

So named for the Roman Numeral III in his name.

He may also have the nickname 'The Piper', for obvious reasons.


Why Robert Mueller’s methodical pace should comfort Americans desperate for Trump’s departure.

Indeed, Mueller himself, with his buttoned-down demeanor, sterling reputation, and all-business approach personifies the intersecting domains of law and fact. He is the anti-Trump. His presence alone could be what the country needs to survive this presidency.

For each tweet, a subpoena. For each insult or putdown, a question for a witness under oath. For each grand display of braggadocio, the silent picking of a lock to execute an early morning warrant. All of it in service of a mission to tirelessly gather facts, the mother’s milk of the federal prosecutor. Facts that hold up in a courtroom under the most demanding standards of proof. Ones that speak for themselves and do not admit alternatives.

Mueller must intend the contrast. “Bobby Three Sticks”—the behind-the-back nickname pinned on him by FBI agents who were struck by Director Mueller’s patrician, uncompromising demeanor and who bridled at his forceful management style—is as seasoned and savvy a player as there is in the legal world of Washington, the federal courts, and elite criminal defense practice.
