A fair useful summary of the Mueller Report
Robert Mueller is set to testify before both arms of Congress tomorrow (Wednesday 7/24/2019) in 2 separate meetings, first with the House of Representativesand later with the Senate.
While his over 400 page report may be too much information for most
people to comprehend, here is a very fair and useful summary of the report
put together by PBS to help you better understand that report.
If you would like to be fairly well informed about the report, rather than being overwhelmed with rhetoric from others who want to believe lies, it would be prudent of
you to watch & listen to this good, useful, less than 1/2 hour video.
Please do so BEFORE you comment on this blog.
All comments that are off-topic (not about the video), or personally attack other commenters WILL likely be deleted at my earliest convenience.
Thank you & have a wonderful day.
With no further ado, here is that video;

Thanks for posting...very interesting indeed...
As investigations continue on the illegalities of the the obozo erra spying, the demonrats push and twist lies to cover up their own actions.
If you were fairly informed and could see events and the truth as they have unfolded; you wouldn't be over whelmed and wrapped up in the criminal party of rats.
In a true system of justice, even obozo himself would be facing criminal charges, and all of the mueller would be erroneous as he too, goes down with the ship.
Impeachment won't happen, and most likely none of the other actual criminals that should be charged will face any thing either.
Get over it.
The country hasn't had it so good in decades. They still lie about losing revenues with the cuts and catering to the rich.
Mean while, all the conflict of interests of the people involved in the scheme to undermine the election are left out.
You and Bob are confused. Obama was not running against Trump.
His last term was ending.
"Spying" is a term reserved for secret intel research on foreign agents in other countries,
not within our own. Trump is a criminal. Of course the FBI was monitoring his activities.
That's part of their job to protect the citizens.
The FBI monitoring of criminals like Trump and Trump himself, was ongoing long before Obama was even in Congress, let alone elected president. It had nothing to do with Obama.
Unlike the current AG situation, the FBI serves the public, NOT the president.
The president has his own legal counsel.
The current AG is the sole exception and should be removed because of it
and his dishonest presentation of his summary of the Mueller Report, that Mueller himself summarized.
Mueller's own summary was ignored and contradicted. Mueller himself protested this.
Guess he does not want to get caught out lying , yellow coward requested a letter asking that his ( Mueller) testimony be only about the report .
Mueller asked his younger assistant to be there, so that he is clear on as many details as possible,
that he might not be aware of, or might have forgotten by now.
He didn't want any "I don't recall" situations, made infamous by Jeff Sessions.
I see nothing wrong with that.
It sure beats Jeff Sessions'
"I can't recall" and about 25 other versions of that statement.
“I want to add one correction to my testimony this morning," Mueller said. "I want to go back to one thing that was said this morning by Mr. Lieu, who said and I quote, ‘You didn’t charge the President because of the OLC opinion. That is not the correct way to say it[[[[. As we say in the report and as I said at the opening, we did not reach a determination as to whether the President committed a crime.]]]]
pretty much says it all .
Didn't know who appointed him
Never heard of Fusion GPS
Contradicted himself 3x
And became obvious after a few minutes that he neither wrote or
Read the report with his name on it.
Incroyable..
no thank you' we have plenty big buildings. Then Trump thought 'they must not know who I am ... I have an idea ..I'll become a Presidential candidate and have my name plastered all over everything that it isn't already plastered, then we'll see if they want to talk'. and then he got nominated.... then he got elected.. then he elected Cohen to 'fix it but don't make mad' and the rest is history.
Trump's public call to Russia to find Hillary's e-mails was the seal on the deal.
After the election Trump tried to get sanctions dropped as a return favor.
But Congress in a bipartisan effort blocked it.
Yalls some snivelling poor losers
Just wait till 2020 when he slams home another win
And all I could think of while listening to the closing argument was "Speaker of the House Schiff, President Schiff, Supreme Court Justice Schiff - or is there time for all three?"
Ok, your turn to now flood me with your weak, pathetic arguments. Be sure that I will defend to the death your right to be so wrong. But please, be "en pointe.""

that he couldn't exonerate Trump for obstruction of justice, he meant that there was substantial evidence that Trump did obstruct justice. The main reason he didn't
say that Trump committed a crime, was that his view is that the justice department cannot
decide on indicting a sitting president. The appropriate mechanism for dealing with such a situation is impeachment by the House of Representatives. Thus, it is now up to the House of Representatives to either go ahead and impeach Trump, or to hold off impeaching Trump until other witnesses are interviewed and/or more evidence is obtained.
Perhaps you don't want to learn.
U.S. voters didn't read and/or understand the 400 pg. Mueller Report.
Going before the Houses of Congress would make it unmistakably clear that The Don had committed crimes of an impeachable nature.
Once voters were made to understand the Report they'd demand, in overwhelmingly large numbers, that The Don be impeached by the House & the Senate, supported by the will of the people, would find the political will to vote to remove The Don from office.
My sense of the situation is that Mueller failed to provide any compelling evidence/clarification that will bring about a groundswell of demand for impeachment/removal from office.
Indeed, his appearance before Congress quite likely had the polar opposite effect.
Impeachment/removal is even less(!) likely now (if that be possible) than a couple days ago when this blog was posted.
The chances at that time were slim to nil.
The 'Crats need to put this to rest, realize they ARE going to have to run someone against him in '20, and put their efforts/resources into that rather than flogging an impeachment horse that's been dead for at least a year.
It's over.
L E T...I T...G O ! !
IMO.
Some of y'all's results may vary, and probably will.
Trump Out Early? These bets are for whether Trump leaves office early -- for ANY reason except assasination. In case of assassination, the betting is cancelled.
$1,877,195 bet so far
Trump Completes His Term - 89.4% - +1.3% (daily change since 7/24/19)
Trump Out Early - 10.5% - -1.3%
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the aftermath of Mueller's appearance, odds that The Don will complete his term jumped by +1.3%
Gamblers agree with others that Mueller's performance was a "catastrophe", "disaster", "debacle" for the cause of impeachment.
Check the trend line @
In January, '18 odds were 50/50 The Don would leave office before the end of his term.
It's now nearly 90/10 that he'll complete his term.
Mueller's pathetic performance by "a daft old man" should be the final and long overdue nail in the impeachment coffin...once & for all
full of exciting fire & brimstone.
But, those who know Mueller best, did not expect it to be so. Not only is that not his style, but it was further prevented by the gag orders
that were placed on his testimony by the White House attorneys and Barr's DOJ.
However, the bottom line is that what was reinforced by it, is that the Russians did attack our election multiple ways. They attempted to help Trump win the election, not only with Trump's approval, but with his encouragement. Trump tried to impede and curtail Mueller's investigation several times. Trump lied about and tried to cover up several of his attempts.
These are crimes of obstruction of justice. It is the belief of the department of justice that it cannot prosecute a sitting president. The method for doing so includes first impeaching the president. Of course the odds for bet makers is going to go up with time.
There is less time before Trump's term is up and time will tell.
"There must have been a point in the Robert Mueller hearings when the big thinkers of CNN and MSNBC curled up on the floor in fetal positions and began breathing into brown paper bags, trying to remain calm.
Breathe. Collusion. Breathe. 'Did not reach a determination as to whether the president committed a crime.' Breathe. Ted Lieu? Breathe.
Those paper bags popped in and out, out and in, when Democratic media wizard David Axelrod and Harvard Law’s Laurence Tribe pronounced the Mueller hearings an unmitigated disaster for their side."
