Attorneys general, yes.

It's interesting to me because Trump has long functioned by bullying people and burying them in bullshit, but he's traditionally picked fights with people he knows he can beat. Now that he's literally the biggest target in the world he's no longer getting to pick.

My understanding is that Mueller is wholly beholden to the Attorney General, or in this case, the deputy Attorney General. What that means is anybody's guess at this point.
