They are reading it on FOX News, a quote from the Mueller report is included and states it was found Trump nor any officials conspired or clouded with Russia to interfere in the election. Despite multiple offers from Russia directly to the Trump team.

IT sounds to me like they are saying "This is not our place to treat this like a normal situation. It's up to Congress to decide based on the information within." If that's right, I think that is the absolute correct action by the DOJ and Barr.

I'd really like to know what's in it.

I knew that even if this report was a big neon sign that said "He fucking did it", he wasn't going to be hauled out of the white house in handcuffs. However I'd really like to know what all is in it. It sounds like other legal proceedings are still on the table though.

I predicted way back that everyone would turn on Mueller the way they turned on Hillary once she lost the election, I am a prophet! He lived long enough to become the villain.

I don't even feel mad, I already felt disappointment with the 9/11 report, Saudi Arabia not being punished, the Bush admin getting away with their crimes. It's the way the world works. I went into this with zero expectations.

That's basically how I read it too. It's also why the report needs to be made public.

Except this split Congress couldn't agree on whether the sky is blue.

Pelosi's already on the record saying she doesn't want to begin impeachment proceedings without substantial evidence, and this ain't it.

This is a win for Trump, no question.

So, they didn't have evidence of collusion. Interested to see if they release the full report.

So Barr did exactly as expected. Clean this shit up and sanitize it.

Very strong possibility that this will be essentially Mueller saying:

"Here's a shitload of evidence that suggests the POTUS has done a shitload of awful things, but I can't indict him and the DOJ can't make a typical prosecutorial decision because he's the POTUS. Now it's up to Congress and the Senate to decide if this justifies impeachment."

Wait, according to that letter in order to obstruct justice they have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Trump did something criminal that he's trying to stop? What? That doesn't make sense.

Shame the media went along with shifting goalposts to the point where "definitive proof of collusion" was the only bar that mattered in this entire thing.

Anybody who thought they were going to indict a sitting president has not been paying attention to anything. Many cases have been handed off to other districts for prosecution, Stone is still being arranged, Flynn, Gates, etc.

That's precisely what this looks like.
