Here’s What the Mueller Report Shows

Kimberley Strassel, a top reporter following the Mueller report, has issued an opinion on the Mueller report Fox News:

By the fall of 2017, it was clear that Special Counsel Robert Mueller, as a former director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, was too conflicted to take a detached look at a Russia-collusion story that had become more about FBI malfeasance than about Donald Trump. The evidence of that bias now stares at us through 448 pages of his report.

President Trump has every right to feel liberated. What the report shows is that he endured a special-counsel probe that was relentlessly, at times farcically, obsessed with taking him out. What stands out is just how diligently and creatively the special counsel’s legal minds worked to implicate someone in Trump World on something Russia – or obstruction-of-justice-related. And how — even with all its overweening power and aggressive tactics — it still struck out.

Volume I of the Mueller report, which deals with collusion, spends tens of thousands of words describing trivial interactions between Trump officials and various Russians. While it doubtless wasn’t Mueller’s intention, the sheer quantity and banality of details highlight the degree to which these contacts were random, haphazard and peripheral. By the end of Volume I, the notion that the Trump campaign engaged in some grand plot with Russia is a joke.

Yet jump to the section where the Mueller team lists its “prosecution and declination” decisions with regards the Russia question. And try not to picture Mueller “pit bull” prosecutor Andrew Weissmann collapsed under mountains of federal statutes after his two-year hunt to find one that applied.

There are still many questions about the Trump investigation’s inception, but the President is in the clear. It remains to be seen if there will be an investigation of the investigators.

The Democratic Communist Party of the USA will say or do anything to obstruct President Trump and his Administration in any way they can. They know that all their investments in the take-over of our schools, colleges and universities will be coming to an end. The Democratic Communist Party has stolen the minds of our young men and women for the last 3-4 decades and now it will finally end in failure. The Republican Party, under the guidance of President Trump and his Administration will finally get rid of all those card carrying Communist Party members who are the teachers and professors in our schools of higher learning, who have been poisoning the minds of our youth. The future of our country will be saved from the grasp of those pathetic Communist doctrine teachers and the truth will make America great again. GO TRUMP ! GO PENCE ! KAG ! Sincerely, Martin Korab

when you only read what you want to read and never with an open mind on what you are reading, a person can come to all kinds of conclusions. I would bet anything that if an independent group of graduate law students was to have to read and report on the Mueller report. I would say about 80% would find that Trump violated so many laws on the books that it is totally criminal. Now Bar acting as the defender of the President does not sit well with the public at large, in a recent poll about 64% said they did not think Bar was acting properly in his role as AG, and was trying to protect the President.

What poll taken by whom??? I bet you heard that on CNN. Never ceases to amaze me when statements are presented without a single reference source.
Fake news = fake polls.

Dick Morris talked about how Mueller, Weissmann and Rosenstein were investigating Russian operatives involved with trying to get our uranium. On his sight he said sources told him that the three were about to arrest the Russian operatives when Clinton signed off on the Uranium One deal. They decided to wait so no one in the media would get wind on what was going on. Morris said that his informant told him just before the statute of limitations was up, they charged the Russians with misdemeanors (in other words a slap on the wrist) and they went back to Russia. Dick Morris has been accurate on everything he has reported , so I believe this to be true also. His sources have been very reliable.
