Multiple outlets reporting

WASHINGTON — Robert Mueller's federal grand jury is continuing its work even though the special counsel has submitted his final report to Attorney General William Barr, a government prosecutor said Wednesday.
Assistant U.S. Attorney David Goodhand made the admission during a court hearing in Washington about unsealing new details in a mysterious case involving an unidentified foreign company swept up in Mueller's probe.


U.S. District Chief Judge Beryl Howell asked Goodhand if the grand jury had concluded their investigation, given the fact that Mueller has completed his inquiry.
"No," Goodhand said in response. "I can say it's continuing robustly."

I don't get it...why was a final report submitted if the investigation is ongoing?

Yea I'm confused as well. The conclusion was drawn there was no collusion with Russia. Would this continue due to possible obstruction we keep hearing about?

Haven't the same guys who said "report's in, no collusion" been the same ones saying "yep, report's out tonight" every week for the past 6 months?

this isn't surprising. there's still the matter of andrew miller, the roger stone associate who they want to testify, and the mystery foreign corporation.

there are ongoing matters that don't relate to the investigation into russian election interference or obstruction.

Given this is about some mystery foreign company it might speak more strongly to collusion than obstruction. And we aren't going to see an unredacted/WH edited report unless someone leaks it.

Then why the fuck was the report released

Does Mueller just want to retire really bad? I don't understand any of this, with what we know it seems like one of Mueller's representatives should shoot Barr down with spreading false information

If Barr's summary was loose with the truth, why has Mueller or a rep not come out and shot him down?

Barr's letter was 94% his own words. Mueller and Barr are friends. Might take him some time to assess and also he's a lifelong Republican. He might not care.

Even if we had the full report, which we don't, and because we don't, it's hard to say if Mueller did a good job or made appropriate conclusions.

There are going to be as many Donald Trump movies/TV shows/documentaries/cinematic universes as there are Pablo Escobar telenovelas, but all I fucking want to see is the Iannucci film. That'll be a real grand guignole primal scream of a movie.

These cases have either been handed off to other attorneys or districts, that has been reported on multiple occasions. these cases are nothing new. Every Mueller case != involvement of DT

Grand jury hasn't met in 2 months. Guess we will find out soon. I'm guessing Mueller was prematurely shut down

So, why would Mueller say there was no collusion with Trump and Russia and then continue investigation collusion? Shouldn't he have waited?

Every day that we get new info seems to build the case that Mueller wasn't actually finished with his investigation but was pressured to wrap it up.
