    No evidence means it is complete innuendo.

    You mean the one Misfud told him about? Misfud which Mueller said was a Russian agen now apparently works for western intelligence. Wonder why they tried to set up Papadopolous?

    Like the left on the Mueller report, everyone should be for getting to the bottom of this. Of course they were sorely disappointed but no worries, they now make stuff up.

    Of course, you got to read the entire thing...but a summary of the conclusions would be helpful when the investigation is complete, and the report is being drafted. Our current AG is very good at doing that, and making the public aware. Transparency has a been a great thing about the current Admin, in stark comparison to the last

    Again Volume 2 is 95% evidence, 5% reason why Mueller couldn't use that evidence in a legal proceeding in 2019 against a sitting president...

    - Phone call records
    - Witness statements
    - EMAIL records
    - Twitter records

    Ya know.... evidence.... make of it what you will...

    Sure he is... that's why his subordinate wrote an official letter stating the opposite..

    I guess I missed that part of the Mueller letter saying 'Good Job!'

    LOL, I will say it again, Trump is not guilty of stealing a horse but he is certainly guilty of not wanting to be hanged for it. I know a simple analogy will go right over your head but everything Trump did is consistent with being innocent. You cannot prove otherwise.

    Not until an indictment is filed... you are correct there....

    Even a full impeachment wouldn't prove otherwise, since that is not legally binding.

    P.S. Consistent with being innocent is letting (encouraging) the investigation to play out until the end....

    :roflol: We know what Papodopoulos did in May, and what he plead guilty to. You'd think the FBI, Priestep, would be bragging, not stonewalling. :;): "I bother" because I've had this hoax pegged for years. Every "Russian" contact the campaign had, was an outreach by a CIA "Rent-a-Russian" :roflol:

    Honestly, if there is nothing I'll just shrug my shoulders. I won't be burning down my downtown.

    Actually, once a lot of us actually read the report (which none of you did, even though some of you claim you did (and are clearly lying about that)), we say that all the major news about Trump and Russia was true, and well documented.

    All that remains is for the investigating committees to get the material in front of people on their television screens, and Trump’s blizzard of BS vanishes. (Except in Trumpsters world, where it will be clung too like a life ring).

    The only people making stuff up, is you guys. And it’s getting pretty absurd. Self serving made up nonsense usually gets that way.

    Millions of documents turned over, advising all to cooperate, never claiming executive privilege. Now point out where the investigation was ever impeded.

    I'm not sure what letter you are referring to that said the opposite....here's what he however said in a press statement: "The Attorney General then concluded that it was appropriate to provide our report to Congress and the American people.At one point in time I requested that certain portions of the report be released. The Attorney General preferred to make the entire report public all at once. We appreciate that the Attorney General made the report largely public. I do not question the Attorney General’s good faith in that decision." - lots of praise for Barr

    And your ‘pegged” is total rationalization and made up nonsense.

    Why would I think that the FBI under Trump would be “bragging”????????

    And, as I said, you can quit parsing. Your hero copped to the crime.

    I'm parsing nothing ... and Trump's FBI wasn't involved. I NAMED Priestep. :lol: I NAMED Halper and Turk. There's nothing "made up" about the identities, the timeline, or their employer. The good stuff hasn't even surfaced yet. Misfud. We know Fusion paid Veselnitskaya, but who paid Misfud is going to be much more damning. My suspicion is that Halper recruited Misfud. My hero is living rent free inside your noggin and under your skin. ::):

    Mueller could have subpoenaed his appearance but did not and did not dare to. The reason for that is that the WH legal team would have discovery and Mueller knew there was no there there early in the investigation.

    It is like the democrats dare not subpoena Mueller now that questions would be asked the democrats do not want asked.

    Why does that not surprise me??

    LOL... if that's praise, I'd hate to hear indifference...

    He gave kudos to Barr for releasing the redacted report.... which to my mind is clearly the only non-humiliating moment of his current tenure as AG...

    You mean he did what he promised even though he had no legal reason to do it.

    Ask yourself why Nadler is not subpoenaing Mueller to appear? Ask yourself why Mueller did not subpoena Trump to appear? Both certainly are and were available.

    1. Not sure, although I tend to agree with Muellers Presser, in that he likely has little to add to the proceedings... We need to hear from the witnesses, not the scribe. Mueller won't answer the only important question he would be asked, so I'm not sure why they need to bother.
    2. Trump would have fought that all day long and we'd never have a Mueller report. He asked multiple times and Trump refused, so he moved on. Trump will pay that penalty going forward, not Mueller....

    Nooooo.. everything other than that is humiliating.... Releasing even a redacted Mueller report is the only action that prevents his tenure from getting a 0 (on a 0-100 scale)
