However, it is the responsibility of the Attorney General under the procedures for the DOJ's Office of Special Counsel to summarize the findings of the Special Counsel and provide a report of that to the Congress and to the public. Barr made it clear that he wanted to release as much information from Bob Mueller's Special Counsel report as he could, as in his view it was time to get everything out there so we can move on.

For those of you who missed the hearings, here is the report from the Washington Post:

Senate Democrats were apparently caught flat-footed by this revelation, as they clearly were unfamiliar with the procedures for the DOJ's Office of Special Counsel and its legal requirements, which were adopted during the Clinton administration in the aftermath of the Ken Star Independent Counsel investigation of President Clinton.

It seems that Senate Democrats were for some reason actually expecting the confidential Mueller Report document to be released directly to the public, or at least to be provided to them, so they could leak it to the press later. But that is against the procedures for the DOJ's Office of Special Counsel, which were adopted by the DOJ under President Clinton.

While I do expect AG Barr to release as much information as he can, I also expect that anything included in the report along the lines of 'We looked into such and such and it seemed fishy, and we were troubled but in fact there is no evidence, blah, blah, blah' can reasonably be expected to be left out of the final AG's report.

And if Barr were to leave out any major findings backed up by evidence that demonstrated that Donald Trump conspired together with the Russians to steal the 2016 presidential election from Hillary Clinton, that would be truly scandalous and improper, and would in my opinion support Barr's removal from office, and if the law provides for it, worse.



One would think, he was trolling the lunatic left, with TDS

You can be sure that anything damaging to Trump would have leaked by now.

That's not true at all, Mueller runs a tight ship. Because of the extent of the report I'm sure there is damaging information to Trump, the question is will Barr attempt to suppress the details.


Yet another thread that didn't hold up well, the report will be made public.

The most interesting part of this release is that it was done prior to the sentencing of Gates. He indicated HE wouldn't be indicting anyone else so why the delay with Gates, also the Southern District of NY is still ongoing with the Trump family. Mueller does not indict a president nor make that recommendations, that's up to congress.

“If you doubt my prediction, please check my record over the last 7 months,” the lawyer continued, adding the hashtag “#Winning.”

keep hope alive ..... lol .... it's over dude, Mueller was your shot, he missed. You think America wants Congress to re-investigate Mueller's findings for the next 2 years? ...if so, you're delusional.

Shows how little you know about how the gov. is structured. Congress doesn't indict anyone.
They don't have that power. Congress doesn't convene a grand jury. The best they can do is send a criminal referral to the executive branch. Which often gets ignored as we have seen all to often. They don't have the power to enforce law. They are the legislative branch of gov. Get a clue !!!

I thought Trump junior was a suspicious but what ever his actions at Trump tower it didn't meet the threshold for an indictment. So do you trust Mueller now or is he still part of the deep state.
