Doug Collins sounds like all the football coaches at my southern high school. This has nothing to do with anything. he always reminds me of an auctioneer. But like, on a shitload of Adderall.

Watch this. Because his opening remarks weren't pre-cleared by DOJ

For those unfamiliar with the Judiciary committee, watch Sheila Jackson-Lee (D-TX) and Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) closely. They have a way of getting people to make news. Also watch Jamie Raskin (D-MD) closely. He's a Constitutional Law Professor so he, uh, knows his stuff. Also Matt Gaetz (R-FL) will absolutely make an ass of himself which will be amusing to watch. Collins already did that in his opening statement

Mueller is explaining what his mandate was and how he insisted on the team being thorough, expeditious and with the utmost integrity.
Shorter Mueller: We behaved ourselves and did our job, you absolute weapons. It's not my fault that people tend to be fuckwits who are more interested in baseless nonsense on Twitter than fact and law.

Mueller reiterates that Russia REALLY REALLY REALLY messed with our election. He also reiterates that he said nothing about collusion.

He also reiterates that the team did not make a determination about obstruction because of fairness (meaning, it would be unfair for him to accuse Trump of a crime if he can't indict him, bc Trump wouldn't have his day in court to defend himself)

He won't answer questions about the Steel Dossier.
I feel like half the Republicans just ripped up their questions.

He's wrapping up by praising his team, and basically say, "SERIOUSLY GUYS RUSSIA"

NBC is doing a split screen with the relevant parts of the report. That's really nice.
