    It was known early on there was no collusion.

    Well then Nadler is fooling himself... Mueller's testimony will not change one mind...

    Those that believe the Mueller report, even as redacted, is easily enough evidence to begin an impeachment hearing (Me) and those that don't.

    I also believe impeachment hearings are warranted on Trump and his administration blocking witnesses from appearing for subpoenas.

    There is no bar low enough to convince the 2nd group Trump should face impeachment hearings.

    I suspect tomorrow will be mostly useless, except Mueller should be able to defend the start of the investigation if he bothers to answer any of those questions against DOJ advice..

    What might or might not happen Wednesday is speculation. What will come out is that "no collusion" and "no obstruction" and "complete exoneration" are myths. Perhaps that is sufficient.

    Yes, they are myths. Unfortunately, Trumpist's never let the facts get in the way of misguided beliefs. If Mueller says in plain English he would have indicted Individual 1 if not for the OLC prohibition Trumpist's will claim he is "conflicted," just as the Propagandist-in-Chief has told them to believe. If he refuses to answer Trumpist's will claim exoneration. The Conman-in-Chief has both contingencies covered.

    And what difference is rehashing it yet again going to make?

    The belief on the part of Dems is hearing the facts from Mueller's mouth will be able to pierce the veil of disinformation spread by the admin and right wing media. Barr took the opportunity to mis-characterize what the report said before it was released to the public and the false impression it left with millions of people remains to this day.

    That is why the DOJ is doing everything within their power to keep Mueller from answering the kinds of questions the Dems will ask him.

    His words can't be propagandized. Not to mention that most people haven't read the report.

    Dems are hoping Mueller's testimony will reach people like this..........................

    The success of this Republican campaign, reflected in conservative media coverage, to protect Trump was best captured by Amash’s own constituent Cathy Garnaat, a Republican, who NBC reported was “surprised to hear there was anything negative in the Mueller report at all about President Trump.”

    “I hadn’t heard that before,” she told NBC after the Tuesday town hall. “I’ve mainly listened to conservative news and I hadn’t heard anything negative about that report and President Trump has been exonerated.”

    That's what it boils down to. The simple verbalization of Mueller's Report in public will put millions of Americans "on the page." What they do with this new information (for them) will tell us if we still have a modicum of shock or outrage left in us.

    I've got to admit you are a resilient bunch in the Resistance. No amount of failure and disappointment seems to faze you.

    I wonder how many people like the one that Vox dug up there really are.

    I'd say there is very little shock or outrage left.

    Congress already read it out loud. Nothing. Now Mueller will tell everyone what the report says, which will result in the same thing.

    Mueller does have some things he can talk about like why Weissmann offered a get out of jail card two weeks in to a Russian under indictment if he would provide dirt on Trump. Of course that didn't go anywhere.

    A Congressional reading of the Mueller Report created all the drama of scraping off road kill. Who wants to listen to 448 pages of legalese? The public wants drama, and Wednesday may provide some. Even Trumpets will watch and that includes Trump, the most interested watcher of all.

    I don't know how many there are. Millions I suspect. If there weren't, Don's approval poll numbers would be in the 20's. Either that or people know Don committed obstruction of justice and don't care.

    Looking forward to Mueller talking about corrupt intent, and how he could not establish that Trump acted with same.
    Looking even more forward to the Democrats and their allies in the news media not explaining why this isn't just significant, it is pivotal.

    It is a big mistake to assume that people would interpret the facts the same way you do. They don't. Many people who are familiar with the Mueller report honestly don't think that the President obstructed justice.

    If they honestly think he didn't obstruct justice they aren't just "interpreting" the facts, they are denying them.

    The Fox News anchors of the Robert Mueller hearings have pushed misinformation about his investigation
    https://www.mediamatters.org/resear...misinformation-about-his-investigation/224282

    I can't post all the lies Faux has pushed due to copyright violations. You are free to read them by clicking the link. They are all factually substantiated.

    It explains how millions may "interpret" the facts differently than myself.

    Then you are likely to be disappointed since the DOJ has said he is not allowed to speak about deliberations he or his team engaged in. However, the report clearly establishes the intent to obstruct the investigation. I think what you're getting at is Don's refusal to answer questions in verbal or written form makes intent more difficult to establish. Thus.........the reason for his stonewalling of the questions he was asked.

    As to the misinformed minions like yourself.............
