Breaking from The Hill comes the Attorney General’s report of the Mueller investigation’s findings:
“The Special Counsel’s investigation did not find that the Trump campaign or anyone associated with it conspired or coordinated with Russia in its efforts to influence the 2016 U.S. presidential election,” Barr’s letter to the House and Senate Judiciary Committees, which was made public shortly after it was submitted Sunday, states.
That was an overly long serving of nothingburger.
Well at least we were able to spend millions of tax payer dollars in a pointless effort to prove what everyone with common sense already knew going in to this investigation. Thanks Democrats.
Still less than what they spent investigating Hillary after all the funds they recovered from the tax cheats and foreign lobbyists.
“Over the course of his probe, Mueller brought 199 charges against 34 people and three companies, including six of Trump’s former advisers and associates.”
Sounds worth it to me.
none related to “collusion” weren’t the charges related to pre-trump activities or outside activities?
Why don’t you write the check then, Trump-hater?
One term president
Economy is going to seal his fate. Recession here we come.
Shame on the dumbocrats! Trump will be remembered as the greatest U.S. President ever! USA! USA!
I wouldn’t say “greatest”. He is certainly better than Obummer, who hates America and committed many crimes that were covered up by his lackeys Holder and Lynch.
The Trump/Russia conspiracy theory would’ve been more credible if there were solid evidence linking possible collusion. Maybe if his payroll included a spy as an office director and personal driver I would’ve paid more attention.
What is interesting is watching MSM, Hollywood and leftists admittedly reject the report!!
So does Trump continue to say Mueller is a phony/liar now that he did the investigation and said Trump is clean? Maybe, just maybe, Mueller was simply trying to conduct a thorough investigation without assumptions of guilt or innocence. The fact that Trump continuously tried to undermine him made me think he was guilty, based solely on Trump’s actions. Why does Trump act so guilty/hostile/desperate?!?
Do you have any doubt at all that Mueller and his gang of Trump haters would not have brought charges if they could find ANYTHING? Here we have an administration in an effort to get one of theirs elected start a bogus investigation to try to trap a major Presidential candidate. We also have an administration that put the kabosh on an investigation–I mean “matter” of another major Presidential candidate who did indeed commit felonies. Mueller and his gang could not come up with charges of obstruction, but rather than admit that, they do not exonerate the President, but leaves that to the AG. The results are a great thing for this President, but the whole process is a very sad period in our history. If this can happen to President Trump, it can happen to anybody. And when we think about how the Mueller Inquisition came after anybody who was connected to Trump–that is really scary. If you can believe that Corsi guy, they even offered him probation if he would sign a document that was a lie. Is this what we want to see in this country?
Maybe because Trump saw what we all saw in the double standard of not investigating Hillary for her server and destruction of evidence along with the pre-investigation exoneration by the traitor Comey.
If you were an innocent person being investigated and maligned in the media, how would you feel? Would you be cheerful about it? Or would you be pissed off? I am guessing you would not have handled it as well as Trump has.
Today’s politics are a stain on our great democracy. Trump threatened to drain the swamp and survived round one but no one should be foolish enough to believe it stops here. Give Trump credit for standing in there and taking the beating for us. He has nothing to gain personally but his behaviors are exposing the swamp rats so I’m behind him. Make no mistake round two is coming and it will be nastier than round one.
These 2 parties aren’t as powerful as they think they are. Republicans can’t stand him, they just use him for fundraising and getting re-elected. His strength and support come from the people not the party. Trump is not a Republican, he just ran on the R ticket.
And that is why neither side particularly likes him. Republicans are happy to just go along to get along and sometimes be in the majority and sometimes not. As long as the ruling class’ power is not removed they are happy.
Regardless of what you think of Donald Trump and opinions vary, the fact that a hoax was perpetuated on a sitting president to unseat a duly elected official is scary to say the least. Our politicians are so bought and paid for along with our media no one is ever held responsible Honest reporting is dead! Both our Senators and Rep are RINO’s and sniff nothing of a Conservative in any way shape or form. They had the house, senate, and presidency and slow walked everything the president tried to do and often thwarted him. The Rs have been a bunch of spineless whips all to willing to cower to the Ds and stopped fighting years ago. Just look at our border to the south, many have talked tough on immigration yet none have done anything, that includes Regan, who did amnesty. Trump recognized the issue and all you get is push back yet, we have a severe problem and congress does nothing. This is getting so old, I hope come 2020 tons of these Rs get primaried because they are worse than Ds’ they lie just to get votes and join the swamp. At least we know what a D will do and they have the b@lls to say what they want, open boarders, socialism, green new deal, etc. Rs talk sh!t and don’t do anything.
Hi all,
I just read all 448 pages of the Mueller report for myself. I’m a life long Republican and I’m shocked to see how plainly obvious it is that Trump and his team worked with the Russians during the election and afterwards. Then to read through the obstruction efforts are even more shocking. I hope we as Republicans don’t sell our souls by not standing up and saying we don’t support what this man has done. The Mueller report is a document that will reflect the reality that many of our Republican elected representatives have chosen to ignore. I’m not sure what report Barr read, but it seems he is also on the band wagon of not admitting the emperor has no clothes.
Thanks for including the plainly obvious sections, from Mueller’s report, which prove Trump worked with the Russians during and after the election. Well done, Karen!!
Will you analyze Rep. Omar’s claims of Republicans being controlled by Israel next?
I understand “anonymous” in the above comment is being sarcastic by asking for specific examples in the Mueller report. I assume “anonymous” has read the report and has a different calibration than I on ethical behavior when it comes to Trump and his team.
But for others reading this thread, the most striking to me was the polling data and battleground strategy that Manafort as campaign manager and Gates also in campaign gave to Ukraine and Russian oligarchs (Vol I page 135-136). This was valuable because it could then direct social media election interference by Russian government group IRA (Internet Research Agency).
In the obstruction section the most shocking to me is a tie between 1) Vol II page 91 where Trump writes a speech for Sessions to interfere in the investigation by directing it to only investigate for future elections not his, and 2) on Vol II page 102 where Trump instructs his son to lie about the Trump Tower June 9 Russia meeting topics by dictating to Hope Hicks a message that it was soley adoption. Even Hope Hicks cautions Trump Jr about using his dad’s message as is.
After hearing all the press reports over the last couple of years, I was glad to be able to read Mueller’s report and get a first hand view. I’m disappointed in the misdirection of the Attorney General which showed why as Americans we are fortunate to have a legal system that allows for transparency.
“Karen” starts with, ” Trump and his team WORKED with the Russians during the election and afterwards.” Now, “Karen” says it’s Trump’s “ethical behavior” and Trump, ” writes a speech for Sessions” all of which are illegal and Mueller is covering up for him. Two years of investigations and nothing, “Karen” is having a difficult time with that.
Another job well done by “Karen” (Anonymous), she should’ve been on Mueller’s team then the truth would have come out.
Yes. I do have a difficult time with what I read in the Mueller report about the actions revealed by Trump and his team. Not because it’s nothing but because I can now see it was something.
Buttery males!
