Oh look. Not exonerated. Who could have guessed. Of course most people will get their news through tv news anchors and miss this entirely.

So wait... there's "no collusion" because we don't have a strict legal definition of collusion? People have been saying this all along but it’s crazy to me that you can just use a rapist who smears shit on the walls as an intermediary and that’s enough to get by

HOLD UP. JUNIOR WAS NEVER INTERVIEWED BY MUELLER?! This is what I’ve been saying. Mueller seemed to have just called it a day. I can understand some of the conservative approach when it comes to a sitting President. But I cannot understand not interviewing Jr or someone like Rhona.

I can understand some of the conservative approach when it comes to a sitting President. But I cannot understand not interviewing Jr or someone like Rhona. It does feel like he dropped the ball. Like he decided he had enough information to make a report and so decided he was done. I almost feel like this is where my feelings of being let down stem from. Especially as we're finding out that there was obstruction and wrong doing.

Honest question, no snark. What would you have them do differently in this instance? The press conference/ this morning was orchestrated to go one way only. Yeah I'm confused by this too What do Dems need to get straight? My only point is that I thought Barr came off way more credible than I had anticipated. I hear a lot of ranting trashing Barr- aside from here where I think we can all vent. I’m worried about the election. This is the first thing lately that seems like it could really dent dems. I’ve heard a lot of NPR callers saying all right all ready. It’s early but we need to have more than Barr’s a thug for Trumpsters!!Im with you all but he came across measured and composed and we need to hammer each point with the same degree of calculations

I hope you’re seeing more of what I’m saying. The icy tendrils gripped my heart. Because he didn’t sound like a loon and there was some early support for this being over with and time to move on.

sherminator thanks for sharing your thoughts. I don't agree that Barr came off well, I think he looked like a partisan hack. But I appreciate you responding to my questions!

So I guess attempted collusion is not collusion?

I admit I am in no way able to objectively assess Barr’s performance today and I didn’t watch in its entirety. I just completely reject the premise. The whole thing is corrupt. He was handpicked by POTUS to spin this report no matter what the content. He released a FOUR page memo with cherry picked words to make us all stop asking questions. He redacts the hell out of the report and then stages a news conference BEFORE it is released so that the press can’t ask informed questions and then bold faced lies about the content of the report. I don’t care what his tone or demeanor is like when he’s smiling to our faces and picking our back pocket at the same time.
Sorry. Not objective.

It's just.....I trust Bob Mueller in his decision not to charge criminal conspiracy. But there's an absolute delta between "No reasonable charge of Conspiracy " and "nobody did anything untoward." And this report sure doesn't reflect the latter.
I guess this is where the Barr 14 summaries and contextualizing made all the difference.

But OTOH, when Comey said HRC mishandled something but didn't actually violate a criminal statute, I took him at that So I don't know. I feel weird.

He's always come off as 'more' credible than any other rando in this administration, just because he isn't Bannon or the Mooch doesnt make him believable.
Schiff, Nadler, Pelosi are all on the same page. They aren't going to yell impeach him, nor should they. But I think they CAN reach a lot of people with the calm measured approach as well.

I hope everyone sees it your way DC. I just want us to be fresher that “but the emails” a credible intelligent rebuttal will save my nerves. I just have a sick kid at home and it seems big hero 6 has taken over my NPR crawling. Also trips to the laundry. New washer dryer not scheduled till Monday. I’m verklempt. About it all..
