Robert Mueller was not.
Mueller was an employee of the Justice Department, and bound by its regulations.
Mueller is also aware that his report is viewed as non-partisan (which it currently is, generally), only so long as he is seen as non-partisan.
Clinton's impeachment, in the end, was deeply undermined by the fact that Ken Starr was openly partisan.
