    If part of this is fraudulent, which it is, the whole thing should be treated as fraudulent! Mueller is A HACK.. not to be trusted.

    Ex-Trump lawyer slams Mueller report as a ‘fraud,’ cites misleading quote
    Former Trump lawyer John Dowd on Monday slammed the Mueller report as a "fraud," for allegedly mispresenting a quote he had said in a key voicemail.

    Dowd said there will likely be more discrepancies in the future stemming from the report.


    “Isn’t it ironic that this man [Mueller], who kept indicting and prosecuting people for process crimes, committed a false statement in his own report,” Dowd said.

    The transcript of that voicemail recording was cited in the Mueller report as evidence that team Trump was trying to obstruct justice by shaping witness testimony.

    No wonder Mueller doesn’t want to testify.

    mueller's corruption vindicates Trump.

    The IG Horowitz report is alleged to be dropping within the next few days. Now it's Trump's turn.

    How ironic is it that Mueller's beef with AG Barr's summary was that Bob wanted an additional "19 pages of context" released so that MSM wouldn't keep spreading fake news? Barr needs to find out who edited this, and what other material or opinions this POS contributed or released, with or without consent. I smell another leaker. Bet the AG does too.

    Hopefully Barr and Mulehead's cozy relationship will not cramp Barr from doing his job.

    Barr's held Bob's feet to the fire multiple times. AG Barr needs to refer Adam Schiff for an ethics review. http://www.politicalforum.com/index.php?threads/sleazy-schiff-lying-spying-obstructing-fraud.556875/ It's not in The Hill link, but Politico reports Schiff's letter to Coats requests intel chiefs give Schiff copies of whatever the DOJ receives. Trump didn't grant Schiff access to any material, and Schiff clearly means to undermine Barr's investigation. Remember when Schiff wanted all the "underlying" FISA docs made public? :lol:

    However, icehole3, it is not fraudulent and if one part is a fraud does not mean the whole item is a fraud.

    OMG... LOL... BOMBSHELL!! Mueller left out the fact that John Dowd apparently stutters and says "uhm" a lot, like a 14 year old giving a book report....

    Nothing in the quote in the report wasn't said by Dowd.... selective editing in a report of this size is mandatory and nothing that was left out changes the gist of what Dowd was looking for...

    Also, in no way is this a KEY voicemail, since it doesn't involve personal Trump actions.. It's way down in Section J, which most agree isn't a full example of OOJ...

    LOLOLOLOL... the desperation is coming off in absolute WAVES.... Looking forward to the hearing on Monday?? Don't worry, this example likely won't be discussed on day 1....

    Dead wrong again. :no: "Falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus". Mueller and Weissman's prosecutorial "signature" is withholding exculpatory evidence. I'm sure there are dozens, if not hundreds of material omissions in in Mueller's report. Nadler might not compel Mueller to testify, by Mueller has a date with AG Barr's grand jury. Mueller knows all the "evidence of collusion" was fabricated and collected illegally. The only questions Barr has, is when Bob knew it, and how far he went to cover it up.

    Right ... doesn't take long to invoke the 5th. :lol: Mueller's screwed. Turns out it was McCabe who pulled Strzok off the investigation, not Bob. Now McCabe being the "insurance policy" ringleader makes it highly unlikey "Andy" pulled him for Trump hating texts. What is likely is that McCabe had no idea Strzok recruited FISA judge "Rudy" Contreras in the scheme. McCabe no doubt explained why Strzok was being stolen away so abruptly, Strzok being the FBI / Mueller's lead investigator. Mueller sanitized Strzok & Pages devices before returning them. Funny he should do that.

    Completely misleading...there was nothing in that vm that even comes close to obstruction of justice. If this is an example of what really happened....it's no wonder Mueller has refused to testify and wants to put this nightmare behind him, once and for all.

    Barr will save Mulehead some honor by blaming the wrongs on Weissman.

    Dowd says there are more pieces that are fraudulent, basically said the whole thing is a fraud. Better give this more time to cook Jake.

    Mueller sounded very nervous as he goaded Congress to begin impeachment proceedings. He knows that's the only way to derail the investigation into his investigation which will not go well for him.

    If the whole thing is a fraud, then surely, Trump's claim of total exoneration is now up for debate? Or are you simply cherry picking what you deem as the fraudulent bits?

    Seems like few liberals here want to comment on Mueller distorting testimony in an anti-Trump way. They changed it to hide exculpatory testimony, which is itself obstruction of justice.

    I am dead right, as always. Selective editing is what editing is in professional document writing. There are no material omissions of importance. You can't show us one. The naysayers need to be charged with libel for distorting what the Report says and how it is written.

    Awwww, the trumpettes got their panties in a knot because Meuller's report nails the petulant child in the White House for obstruction of justice? Now the rabid defenders are casting about for absolutely anything to distract from their criminal con man.

    Once public opinion get above 50% for , the impeachment investigation can begin and run up through the next election.
