If invited, I’d come back solely on this thread just to tell NJ how wrong he is.

The people who don’t want the report released have plenty of reasons to not release it.

Indeed. I’d love to see the evidence for both. Hell, I’d love to see an actual statement from Mueller, or even Barr, claiming there was no evidence of collusion.

Sports board only. I’ve come to rehabilitate this lot, the crazies there are too far gone.

Welp. “Robert Swan Mueller III is an American attorney who served as the sixth director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, from 2001 to 2013.”

Wait I don’t remember this. Why was Obama talking about rigged elections? I agree that believing our elections might be rigged is intellectually contemptible. Who was making that claim that prompted Obama’s response above?

That’s not the premise.

“During the course of his investigation, the Special Counsel also referred several matters to other offices for further action.” Those referrals have already produced ample evidence of crimes committed by the President and his close associates (thus providing the missing motive for obstruction)...

You apparently don’t. Obstruction of Justice is a crime. Period. It’s not any less of a crime if you aren’t charged with some other crime from the investigation you were trying to obstruct. The reasons for this are quite obvious.

Good summary. Will also point that Barr’s letter does not rule out the possibility that there is enough evidence to establish a Trump/Russia conspiracy unrelated to election meddling (I.e. Trump Tower Moscow for sanctions relief). It appears that Mueller’s report didn’t answer that question.

A close reading of the Barr letter actually seems worse than I thought for Trump. It implies that there is evidence potentially supporting an Obstruction of Justice charge that hasn’t been publicly reported, concedes that most of the investigatios into Trump and Co.’s criminal behavior are...

3. Mueller found a whole bunch of shit outside the limited purview of conspiracy to meddle in the election and obstruction of justice. Instead of including those in his final report, he farmed them out to other law enforcement agencies, many of whom are still investigating Trump.

I think the crazies on here are getting a little too excited about a summary of a summary which only says: 1. Mueller didn’t think there was enough evidence of a conspiracy (a legal term much narrower than collusion or coordination) to interfere with the election between Trump Campaign and...
