Bingo.

Obfuscation - and it's worked on many.

When Graham says he's not going to bring in the man that wrote the report, that tells you all you need to know.
The coverup continues. But once Mueller is called to testify, I believe that will be stronger evidence for Barr to resign or recuse from the other investigations under Trump.

A huge hypocritical jump given that Comey has worked for law enforcement for decades even under Guiliani and Mueller.

There’s still no evidence Comey leaked classified information to the media
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...=.6c799b96a359
Notice, I didn't us the word “classified”, although it is arguable.

And it is not hypocritical. Apples to apples would have been if the president, himself, leaked the info.

Either way, Comey is hardly an unbiased commentator on this. Nor is the “news” source.

Now let's figure out how corrupt the Investigators were. All roads lead to the Obama White House.

What's the harm in having Mueller testify?

Which investigators are corrupt? Strzok, who has already testified in 2018? Didn't Mueller kick him off the team? Nothing indicated that in spite of his opinions of Trump, to date, that he did anything unethical in the investigation. Perhaps he did. If you think Strzok is corrupt, wouldn't you want Mueller to testify so he can be asked questions about Strzok? I think it's entirely predictable that's what the Republicans would ask about, as little sense as that makes.

3/24 spins report

3/28 Barr: "My summaries weren't actually summaries."
4/30 release of Mueller's 3/27 letter to Barr criticizing Barr's letter
5/1 "He didn't criticize my letter. He criticized the media's coverage of the letter."
A funny and embarrassing summary.

Obfuscating tool.

Bad enough Lindsay Graham admitted he didn't read the entire report, one would think Mr. Barr would have felt obligated to read the whole thing.

You may want to look that up because you are wrong.

I actually am looking forward to Mueller testifying. It will be another huge disappointment for the left.

You don't call sharing polling data with the Kremlin a form of massive leaking to foreign adversities? Stealing passwords obtained by Wikileaks a form of leaking? It's a corrupt attempt to undermine democracy AND the American public. In fact, what the president did was worse. It's an opinion piece where many people hold the NYT and Comey more credible as a news source than the Kremlin president. It's an opinion piece where many people agree with Comey going by the comments.
