    “The investigation did not establish that members of the Trump campaign conspired with the Russian government in its election interference activities,” Mueller said. But: “We did not address ‘collusion,’ which is not a legal term. Rather, we focused on whether the evidence was sufficient to charge any member of the campaign with taking part in a criminal conspiracy. It was not.”​

    No, it did not.

    First, Mueller specifically stated that he didn't look for "collusion", but rather for a criminal conspiracy.

    Second, he didn't conclude that there was no conspiracy. Rather, he concluded that he could not prove one. He went on to state that a more thorough FBI investigation into the issue (because his mandate was limited) would likely have uncovered crimes. He also stated that his investigation was limited by obstruction from Bonespurs, lying witnesses, witnesses who destroyed or encrypted evidence and witnesses who were overseas and thus beyond his reach.

    You'd know these things if you had simply read the Mueller Report. So do it.

    Did Barr issue a report?

    No, he did not. He's sitting there on his rotund ass improperly questioning the Inspector General's report because he's a corrupt scumbag.

    Trump calls it a hoax, but then Trump lies a lot.

    Well, I hope you find solace in the knowledge that his opponents lie even more than he does.

    What was a hoax? Do you think that Russia didn't interfere on Bonespurs' behalf? Do you think that Bonespurs was unaware of this? Why did his idiot son and SIL along with jailbird Manafort meet with Russians in Trump Tower? Why did Bonespurs' campaign conduct 140+ meetings with Russians?

    The IG report IS devastating and very bad for the FBI.

    Did they meet with the Russians? Did they have over 140 contacts with them? Did they openly encourage them to help? Did their idiot relatives meet with them?

    This is the part where we pretend "collusion" isn't a synonym for "criminal conspiracy".

    "Devastating and very bad"?

    The IG destroyed all f Bonespurs' ignorant talking points about the baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad "deep state" out to get him. That was amusing.

    It's almost like he was going to be President and stuff huh? I mean before 2016, our government seldom (if ever) met with Russians.

    Uhh, no. They certainly don't meet with them 140 + times, receive help from them in elections, openly court their help, meet with them to change policies (which is illegal before you're elected) and change the party platform to accommodate them.

    Why don't you and your buddy look things up before you post? Now you're claiming that receiving help, amplifying that help, knowingly accepting help and meeting with one nation ( a hostile one at that) over 140 times is OK in fairytale land.

    Look up the ****ing Logan Act. Jesus. It's not like that never came up before.

    Yes I should look up applying the Logan Act to an incoming administration meeting with foreign governments.

    You're making me squint again.

    The IG agreed some people need to be fired. The fact that the FBI broke the FISA rules and continued to break the rules and ignore the Woods Procedure is devastating for the reputation of the FBI.

    I stand corrected--272 contacts with Russians and Russian operatives. Yes, the icky icky "deep state" was out to get your "hero"!

    https://themoscowproject.org/explai...rs-70-contacts-with-russia-linked-operatives/

    Beyond the many lies the Trump team told to the American people, Mueller himself repeatedly remarked on how far the Trump team was willing to go to hide their Russian contacts, stating, “the investigation established that several individuals affiliated with the Trump Campaign lied to the Office, and to Congress, about their interactions with Russian-affiliated individuals and related matters. Those lies materially impaired the investigation of Russian election interference.”

    Below is a comprehensive chronological list of the contacts that have been discovered to date and some of the many lies Trump’s campaign, transition team, and White House told to hide them.

    Why would those nice trumpie people fib so often? Because they knew how gullible some people are.

    Yes it did.

    Mueller: No Collusion. lol

    Pretty crystal clear. Also Trump was right, he was being spied on.

    Fun fact: The Nunes memo turns out to be accurate, via the IG while Adam Schiff's rebuttal memo was almost entirely false.

    Then why do you keep saying "collusion"? Why does the Orange Half-Wit keep saying that?

    BTW, read post No. 120.

    Could be, they purposely withheld exculpatory evidence, withheld other information, out right lied and forged documents.

    And the left seems to be saying Ho-Hum we don't care if it gets Trump.
