The reason they found there was "No Indication Russian Meddling Impacted Election" is because if they found that it did, then they would also be force to admit that MSM meddling influenced the election.

Generally, I would agree.

But the real reason is that Mueller would have to indict the entire upper level of the FBI...................

(from the article) :" "No Indication Russian Meddling Impacted Election" is because if they found that it did,
then they would also be force to admit that MSM meddling influenced the election"

Do you mean to say that the MSM and the Russians are in collusion ?.. /s
And their ally is Hillary ?
But I thought the MSM were busy reporting all about Trump and the Russians .. just like Schumer said !
It just goes to show you that investigative journalism is dead

Think of many Soro’s funded groups were meddling in the election. And using false pretenses in doing it as well.

Bird Dogging comes to mind. A crime that no one will investigate.

Deep state is thus far avoiding the domino effect fallout that would take DC down if they actually indict any of the primary culprits from the Obama administration, to include the queen of crime herself, Hillary Clinton and her lackeys. If John Podesta escapes indictment in all of this will reinforce Mueller’s investigation is just another stage of a huge coverup so the Clintons and the Obozo can escape justice.

There is a difference.

When the MSM meddle in elections, it is legal under the Constitution and the First Amendment.

When the Russian Trolls attempted to meddle, they used false names, and they did not register as foreign agents.

The MSM is not required to register as a foreign agent, and it is allowed to lie with impunity under the First Amendment.

If this is it, then I’d have to suspect that Mueller is climbing down, probably because the heat on the FBI from Congress is going to start demanding a lot more than resignations and retirements. The Watergate burglars were willing to deal, too, once they’d been caught. Too bad for them there wasn’t anything left to deal with by then. Whether this is what the FBI has left to deal with will become apparent in the next few days.

“Generally, I would agree.”

Oh, the heartbreak of choosing a parody-able user name....

Humor is a wholesome break from the real world.

Otherwise, I agree with their comment.

BINGO! Why not investigate all foreign groups trying to influence our elections?

Question of the hour:

If 13 Russians were indicted for inappropriate influence on US elections why wasn't soros?

As to maintain continuity of the DC establishment rule. End of story.

Also, the investigations were getting too close to the Clintons, Obamas, Dems. In order to let them off the hook, they inadvertently have to let Trump off the hook, too.

That is why the blanket ‘no Americans were indicted’.

Is it illegal for a foreigner in the US to organize or help organize a political rally?

Can thirteen Russians behind a keyboard overcome the tremendous amount of airtime and printed material from the mainstream media?

Well, according to the MSM, if we are to take this as a serious threat, the Russians must be more powerful!

Agree 100%.

I actually think there are multiple reasons, but the one I posted as the thread topic was one that no one else seemed to be considering.

FReepers are GREAT at figuring these things out and finding the many interconnected reasons. So many good posts here already.
