    The report is clear that Benedict Donald has judged collusion, so far, and possibly obs"truction. The report said the Russians interfered with the elections with the clear intent to elect Benedict Donald.

    Just as importantly, the report reveals that Federal prosecutors are pursuing 14 other investigations that were referred by the special counsel, according to the report.

    Of the 14, only two were disclosed in the redacted report: potential wire fraud and federal employment law violations involving Michael D. Cohen, Mr. Trump’s former personal lawyer, and charges against Gregory B. Craig, the former White House counsel under President Barack Obama, who was accused of lying to investigators and concealing work for a pro-Russian government in Ukraine.

    The other 12 referrals were redacted because of concerns that if details were released publicly, they could harm continuing investigations.

    IOW, bupskis, the pursuit continues.

    That is exactly what the Trumpers are doing: reaching for straws.

    Russia helped him
    He knew they were
    Yet he publicly denied Russia did anything wrong.

    Sophomoric articles like these might as well have been prepared prior to the report release as it was ultra clear to those of us with wide gaze that Democrats had begun to bail on the Russia collusion scam months ago. Mark my words, the Mueller report news cycle will thrive throughout the weekend but come Monday the media will be herding its cattle towards the next hoaxvestigation.

    "the investigation did not establish that members of the Trump campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in the election interference activities"

    Trump was reportedly worried that his presidency would come to an early end once he found out about the investigation, according to the report. It's probably because he's guilty and knows it.

    Why did Barr give Trump's lawyers a copy of the report BEFORE giving it to Congress?

    Why did Mueller neither exonerate nor charge Trump, but simply leave it to Congress to decide?

    It's all pretty obvious.

    The report needs a table of contents. I can't remember the pages stuff is on.
    But Mueller made somewhere in obstruction that Trumps worries were of other matters as much as the Russians.

    Mueller Report: Who and What the Special Counsel Investigated
    More than two years of criminal indictments and steady revelations about Trump campaign contacts with Russians reveal the scope of the special counsel investigation.

    Trump frames the report as exoneration.
    said on Twitter. “We are now requesting Mueller to appear before @HouseJudiciary as soon as possible.”

    Senator Chris Murphy, Democrat of Connecticut, said Mr. Barr’s performance demonstrated fealty to Mr. Trump. “Attorney General Barr is supposed to be the nation’s top impartial lawyer, not a White House spokesman,” he said. “His press conference was just an attempt to spin a report nobody has read yet, and that’s really disappointing.”

    Democratic presidential candidates quickly pounced on Mr. Barr as well. Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey, in a tweet, labeled the attorney general’s remarks as “spin.” Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts said it was “ a disgrace to see an Attorney General acting as if he’s the personal attorney and publicist for the president of the United States.” Senator Kirsten Gillibrand of New York called Mr. Barr’s news conference “a complete farce and an embarrassing display of propaganda on behalf of President Trump.”

    Color-coded redactions leave readers wondering what was left out.
    While attention focused on what was in Mr. Mueller’s report, many in Washington were also looking at what was left out.

    Mr. Barr made what he called “limited” redactions to the report, taking out information he deemed sensitive. More than a dozen pages were fully redacted, or nearly so. Other pages had sections of text blacked out, including full paragraphs.

    Much of the undisclosed material was in the first section of the report on Russia’s interference in the 2016 election and its interactions with the Trump campaign. Far less was scrubbed from the second part of the report, on whether Mr. Trump obstructed justice.

    The only time I’ve ever seen a prosecutor come out and pronounce someone 100% not guilty was during the Duke lacrosse racist hoax. Did anyone from the DOJ announce Clinton was fully exonerated? No, they made excuses.

    What, you need reminding already? That's 1/2 the truth. The other half is: nor could the investigation establish that members of the trump campaign DIDN'T - - - - - -

    Trump never denied that Russia meddle in our elections.

    And Trump didn't win because of Russia meddling. He won because the American people voted for him instead of Shrillary.

    Hillary lost! Trump won! Get over it!

    Bottom line:

    Mueller had complete and unlimited prosecutorial discretion to prosecute Trump.

    Mueller chose not to prosecute Trump. Mueller could have prosecuted. Mueller did not prosecute.

    Trump never invoked executive privilege. Trump stays where the voters put him.

    Actually, the report confirms what was suspected all along: Russia wanted Trump to win because he would cause chaos in our political system, our media and government. The Trump presidency has caused the most division and controversy that our country has ever seen. In that purpose, Russia definitely got what they asked for. The last two years have been a despicable circus in our country, and frankly it is embarrassing. The report also affirms that the Trump team was willing to accept help from Russia. No direct evidence was found of that help actually being coordinated and conducted (which doesn't explicitly mean it did not happen), and there is nothing illegal about "being willing" to commit a crime if the crime can't be proven to have happened.

    There are some important and alarming takeaways from this report. Donald Trump's team was WILLING to commit treason in order to win the election. That much has absolutely been confirmed.

    Also, Donald Trump asked people to lie for him.

    No wonder the President has been so defensive about this investigation. He was scared shitless.

    He has support of 40% of the nation. Try to remove him and you could unleash a Pandora's Box. I don't think Trump supporters are going to accept the erasure of a valid election via witch hunt. If you don't like him, beat him in an election. If you think populist nationalism will do anything other than explode with this move, you could be in for a nasty surprise.

    You people better forget the foolishness and focus on actually finding a viable candidate to run against Trump. Cause right now you don't have one.

    Just sayin....
