    Communications that Barr outlined. "What's with the letter Bob?" meaning Mueller does possess a phone. "Oh, the publics getting the wrong impression from the press reports". "Release another tiny fraction of the report to be cherry picked?" ... "No Bob". This exchange happening while team Mueller was helping prepare the report for release. Barr also cited numerous conversations with Bob, about composing a release ready submission of his final report. Mueller was negligent in that regard. I could argue insubordinate as well.

    This was after weeks of deliberately misleading people about what he was doing,and who was talking to him.

    What we actually learned yesterday boils down to two things.

    One. That Barr is the President’s lawyer, and that the US does not have a legal officer who will defend the rule of law or the Constitution.

    Barr made that abundantly clear when he manufactured the notion that a President could end an investigation anytime he wanted to just by declaring his innocence. There is no law, no case law, and not one word in the Constitution that supports that incredible claim.

    Barr declared that the President (his client) is above the law. I’m very sure Trump was very pleased with that . He’s always viewed himself as a baron,

    Barr also refused to answer the question regarding whether the President could obstruct justice by asking his staff to lie (which Trump did repeatedly).

    Barr also made it clear that he had not actually read the report that he drew conclusions from in less than 24 hours,

    Graham made a farce of the whole thing,and then declared it “over”.

    Trump is pleased with that too.

    And the lickspittle Republicans all got their change to revive their fuhrer’s favorite hobby horse, Hillary Clinton.

    “I’m living rent free inside Donald Trump’s head”....

    Graham did acknowledge the Russian effort, and made throwaway comments regarding taking steps to do anything about it (after nearly three years during which his committee and the GOP has steadfastly blocked every efffort to do so).

    Other than that, both the GOP and it’s media machine did its level best to ignore the subject at hand.,

    Dude - That's hilarious!

    Where do Democrats using the powers of the federal government to illegally spy on an oppositon political campaign fit into your comical idea of "adhering to the laws"?

    LOL - You are really on a roll, bro. You sound like one of the few people on the planet who actually believes that Bill Clinton and Loretta Lynch "accidentally" bumped into each other on the tarmac of an airport in Arizona, of all places, and only talked about grandchildren. :lol:

    Wanna buy some oceanfront property in South Dakota?

    Oh, and let's not forget that thanks to Chatty Lisa Paige we all know what we already knew - if it wasn't for the obstruction of justice committed by the scofflaws in the Obama-Clinton crime family's DOJ Hillary Clinton would have gotten keelhauled before a federal grand jury in 2016.

    Finally, we can't overlook the results of the sham "investigation" into the debunked Russia Collusion conspiracy theory that Bob Mueller and his merry band of cleaners and "insurance" agents failed to pin on Trump and his campaign. Now that Mueller has done everyone the favor of proving that there was no predicate for the investigation in the first place, he's left everyone who orchestrated it ass out. This is going to make it easier on everyone to roll that operation up, and kudos to Itchy Jim Clapper for fingering the man who orchestrated the whole thing - Barack Milhous Nixon.

    It's not Trump who is in trouble. It's the scofflaws in the Obama-Clinton crime family who are about to be hoist by their own petard. If things go as I expect - and so far they have - this should blow up in theirs and the Democrats' faces shortly before the 2020 elections. :beer:

    I pondered this metamorphosis of trumpery previously, but no one has posited an explanation.

    I can't help but wonder how Willy (née "Roseanne") Barr might explain the stark contrast in reaction to his little puff piece purportedly about the Mueller Report vs the reaction to the actual Mueller Report.

    What, other than lowering the Barr, could have occasioned such an hysterical mood swing?

    Watching Barr dismantle the leftist narrative yesterday was a sight to see. Glad he stood up for the American people against this sideshow.

    Barr definitely looked like the adult in the room. Does anyone know what the democrats were babbling about?

    I expect Impeachment discussions against William Barr to pick up after his 2 lies to Congress were exposed on National TV yesterday.... Those, plus his inability to appear before the House today would appear to qualify.

    Certainly, he can expect a subpoena today regardless..

    He didn’t dismantle anything. All he did was repeat the right wing memes that he was installed to push,

    Exactly. All of these trumpers pretending that they "accept" Mueller's findings are the same people who sob and cry about specific findings of (at the best) wrongdoing and crimes in the Mueller Report. Which none of them have read.

    It would be funny if it wasn't so sickening.

    .


    Why do you Trumpster peddle this false and clearly idiotic narrative?

    Oh, that’s right. Because your fuhrer bellowed it, and you have to repeat everything he says, especially if it’s nonsensical,

    Not true.

    He dismantled the gargantuan triple cheeseburger and fries he had for lunch, and he dismantled his credibility.

    Where is that in Mueller's Report?

    (You know, 400+ pages of damning evidence against Bonespurs, which you didn't read)

    Why you keep peddling that BS is just embarrassing.

    Mueller specifically stated that he was following OLC policy which provides that a sitting (on his brains) president cannot be indicted. Just because one democrat disagreed with the policy doesn't mean anything. Unless you're using the mindless "reasoning" that it magically transforms Mueller's specific statement in the Report, which you plainly have no clue about.:alcoholic:

    *LOL*

    He found a lot of it.

    It's in the report.

    If you're not going to read it, buy the audiobook of the report narrated by Samuel L. Jackson.

    Obviously false. All the evidence is still there, and everything about Trump, his cronies, his gangster friends et al has been confirmed in the report (which Trumpster don’t read, After all, why be confused with facts when Trump’s lies are so simple, and all you have to is repeat the false slogan Trump fed you)!

    We are not going to move on.

    Trump has trashed the consititution, the rule of law, and tried to assert that he is an absolute king, And his attorney defended that yesterday,

    Nothing prevented mueller from charging trump with a crime

    Other than the fact that he had no evidence to support the charge
