Most everything coming out so far points to the conclusion: The participation's of Trump & Cabal were limited because the Russians were not stupid enough to let them get too deeply involved lest they screw up the works.
No, but it does state that no body has the right to limit the release of the grand jury information generally, or to Congress specifically. If the grand jury themselves refused, they'd be subpoena'd and held in contempt if they refused again.
Yeah but he didn't mean to do it!! It's just everyone was being so mean to him!!Ordering someone to commit obstruction is an impeachable offense.
Trump also ordered Mike Flynn to get Hillary's emails which is another order to perform an illegal act.
You realize that trying and failing to obstruct justice is the exact same crime as successfully obstructing justice, right?
This report makes it pretty clear that Trump is in serious legal jeopardy when he leaves office. Man did you guys get played, haha.
Thank you free press. So, you aren't the enemy of the people?One of the interesting things about the Mueller report is that it is showing that a large percentage (nearly all!) of those 'unnamed sources' articles that Right wing members kept deriding turned out to be true, just like we kept saying.

Man so many acknowledgements in the report from the admin that all their claims of fake news etc... were complete and utter bullshit. Just countless examples of it.
The response from the right will be... any guesses?
That it's fake news!
I see @SMOGZINN just pointed this out. I'll shut up.
Yes, redacted grand jury testimony is literally the only thing that can save us from dictatorship. It’s like @fskimospy is the R2D2 hologram message of Princess Leia from Star Wars, “save me Robert Mueller your grand jury testimony is my only hope.”
Again it should be released but you are quite literally hoping for a political Hail Mary miracle here. Even if released the testimony isn’t going to get Trump out of office.
So what's next on the agenda for congressional over sight. Emoluments, Inaugural slush fund, money laundering? So much crime, so little time.

Nah, for sure taxes won't do it.Ben Franklin offered two solutions.
Yup. Making my way through it right now. For example, the media's anonymously sourced report that Eric Prince met with the Russians in the Saychelles. One media report after another is substantiated in the report.
We really should go through some of those threads and update them with the evidence.
I'm coming around to the idea that a sitting president should indeed be able to be indicted, that there should be no such thing as "executive privilege", and that the AG should be a non-executive appointed position since Barr is so deeply in Trump's pocket that he can't see daylight. Impeachment is not a practical remedy for the staggering array of crimes a truly bad president could commit.
I've posted here before the Department of Justice should be a 4th branch of government that had among its responsibilities the investigation of corruption and other malfeasance in the other branches, however this would require a Constitutional amendment. The easier solution is changing the special counsel law so the special counsel reports to SCOTUS rather than AG. That would also moot the relating questions about what material gets released, to whom and when, etc.
