Once again you Liberals are surprised at normal Human behavior. Every President surrounds himself with exceptionally loyal people. DUH !!!!!! Like you guys were shocked that Republicans conspired to make Obama a one term President. DUH !!!!!! Every opposition party conspires to make the President a one term President.

After the Report has been finalized, the Special Council Process requires the briefing of the White House just before release to the public. It also requires redaction of Grand Jury Testimony and Classified information.

[quote=Blade_Runner]I'm sorry to say your perceptions of how the American system of government works is seriously warped.

Try this on for size:

Proceedings:
2.5 years of investigation spending over $25 million of taxpayers' money.
In the report, the Special Counsel noted that, in completing his investigation, he employed 19 lawyers who were assisted by a team of approximately 40 FBI agents, intelligence analysts, forensic accountants, and other professional staff. The Special Counsel issued more than 2,800 subpoenas, executed nearly 500 search warrants, obtained more than 230 orders for communication records, issued almost 50 orders authorizing use of pen registers, made 13 requests to foreign governments for evidence, and interviewed approximately 500 witnesses.

Findings of the Mueller Team:

No Russian Collusion.
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. p**********l e******n. As the report states: “The investigation did not establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its e******n i**********e activities.”

As noted above, the Special Counsel did not find that any U.S. person or Trump campaign official or associate conspired or knowingly coordinated with the IRA in its efforts, although the Special Counsel brought criminal charges against a number of Russian nationals and entities in connection with these activities.

But as noted above, the Special Counsel did not find that the Trump campaign, or anyone associated with it, conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in these efforts, despite multiple offers from Russian-affiliated individuals to assist the Trump campaign.

Obstruction of justice:

Could not be proven beyond reasonable doubt.
The Special Counsel therefore did not draw a conclusion — one way or the other — as to whether the examined conduct constituted obstruction. Instead, for each of the relevant actions investigated, the report sets out evidence on both sides of the question and leaves unresolved what the Special Counsel views as “difficult issues” of law and fact concerning whether the President’s actions and intent could be viewed as obstruction. The Special Counsel’s report states that “while this report does not conclude that the President committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him.”

After reviewing the Special Counsel’s final report on these issues; consulting with Department officials, including the Office of Legal Counsel; and applying the principles of federal prosecution that guide our charging decisions, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and I have concluded that the evidence developed during the Special Counsel’s investigation is not sufficient to establish that the President committed an obstruction-of-justice offense. Our determination was made without regard to, and is not based on, the constitutional considerations that surround the indictment and criminal prosecution of a sitting president.

Redacted items.

Based on my discussions with the Special Counsel and my initial review, it is apparent that the report contains material that is or could be subject to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 6(e), which imposes restrictions on the use and disclosure of information relating to “matter[s] occurring before [a] grand jury.” Fed. R. Crim. P. 6(e)(2)(B). Rule 6(e) generally limits disclosure of certain grand jury information in a criminal investigation and prosecution. Id. Disclosure of 6(e) material beyond the strict limits set forth in the rule is a crime in certain circumstances. See, e.g., 18 U.S.C. 401(3). This restriction protects the integrity of grand jury proceedings and ensures that the unique and invaluable investigative powers of a grand jury are used strictly for their intended criminal justice function.[/quote]

What far right wing site did you copy this from? Or is it quoting the corrupted hack Barr?

Morgan

You are lost my friend, please don't include us in your slanted way of thinking in order to justify yourself and make you feel better. We didn't put our party first above the recovery of our nation as the GOP did.

Your best analogy is everybody does it so it's ok to do. Poor thinking.

Smedley_buzkill

Barr is corrupt? Why? Could it be because he followed the law, rather than your wishes?

son of witless

Lets us do something the left is horrible at. Lets us get real real specific. Your side tried to arouse their base by constantly saying that those Wascauwy Wepublicans conspired to make our first African American President, a one term President. Your guys and girls made this sound as if it was some horrible dark conspiracy. Your people think that this dastardly deed has never ever happened before in American history. Very amusing.

Then you say this " We didn't put our party first above the recovery of our nation as the GOP did. " I can only conclude that you are making the implication that Democrats do not plot to make every new Republican President a one term President. Do I have that right ? I do not want to put words in your mouth.

Rose42

Clinton’s lie was forced? Tell me how you are any different from people who excuse Trump with that statement.

Rose42

Poor thinking is believing democrats don’t put their party first. The democrat party of old is in its death throes right alongside the GOP. Neither party is capable of fixing this country. Too many self centered politicians and no integrity. And the v**ers mostly go baa and stick with their herd

son of witless

Political parties have always acted this way.

Callan

No, even though there are GOP rhino’s and bad corrupt Republicans they are NOT trying to destroy the U.S.A. By moving toward Socialism. American Socialism world destroy the greatest nation to ever exist on this earth.

Morgan

Followed the law? He is not the judge all, Congress should have gotten the full report when he did, a month ago, he's just another patsy.

Every representative takes an oath and swears in, they deserve the same consideration as the AG. These foolproof conditions are to keep our governing system staying honest which Trump continues to corrupt, as we have now been hearing. He knows he is F-ed because he knows that we all know what he's been doing all along, and continues to do so.

Morgan

This may be true, but the difference in the two party's is the GOP being carnivores and the left being herbivores.

Being on both sides is also why I've stated many times I stand independent/unaffiliated from now on always will. The team player mentality is the very reason why people get manipulated.

Morgan

You certainly did conspire, by the arrogantly open remarks from your boy Mitch. Not at any old time but rather at a time when we almost completely collapsed and needed to come together more than ever, you... I see, don't see a problem with that and don't have the clarity to see the difference. This party also took an oath together to support a lobbyist, Norquist, and to subvert our governing and due process. Is that specific enough?

Why is it that when your guys and girls can't defend something you're doing you give an excuse it's been done before, as if that makes it OK and Justifies it. Wanky thinking IMO. Assinations have been done before also, does that make it OK too?

Smedley_buzkill

Cotton Mather, (Oops! I meant to say "Robert Mueller") and his posse of Democratic Hillary supporting lawyers spent more than 2 years, tens of millions of dollars, hundreds of subpoenas and interviews and couldn't find s**t. Being outraged at being the victim of a witch hunt does not constitute obstruction. You Liberals have turned butthurt into an art form. Any real or in this case imaginary wrong is cause for a meltdown. You have no idea what the law says, so you operate on the premise that it's what you think it ought to say.

Smedley_buzkill

That depends. What the hell is an assination?
