Robert Mueller’s indictments of more than a dozen Russians are a good thing, but it’s just a start. A roundup of editorials Monday takes a look at the issue.

Opinions from the left:

1. As Robert Mueller Fights Russian Meddling, Trump Is MIA
From USA Today: What's missing in the news of indictments of Russians for meddling in U.S. elections is some leadership from the White House.


2. Mueller Indictments Only Scratch Surface of Conspiracy
From The Washington Post: Do the indictments end the investigation into Trump's campaign? No way.


3. America Is Under Attack and the President Doesn't Care
From The Atlantic: Did Trump's campaign collude with the Russians? We don't know yet and if the president has his way, we may never know.

The right wants to know where the left was on gun control when they had the White House.
