Neal Katyal, who helped draft the special counsel rules as a Justice Department lawyer in the late 1990s, said Friday that Attorney General William Barr can and should release special counsel Robert Mueller’s final report.
Katyal, in an op-ed in The Washington Post, wrote that there are no regulations preventing Barr from publicizing Mueller’s findings, which were delivered to Barr late Friday afternoon.
“The public has every right to see Robert S. Mueller III’s conclusions. Absolutely nothing in the law or the regulations prevents the report from becoming public. Indeed, the relevant sources of law give Attorney General P. William Barr all the latitude in the world to make it public,” Katyal wrote. […]
Katyal, who has publicly condemned the president, said the long-anticipated Mueller report must be made public to bolster Americans’ faith in the justice system. …

Bolster faith in the justice system? That ship sailed when hillary walked away free.
If there are no further charges, then besides slandering people what is the point?
FALSE!
The report isn’t enough. Andrew McCarthy wrote yesterday...
“Well, if we’re going to have disclosure, fine. But let’s have full disclosure: Mueller’s report in addition to the FISA applications; the memoranda pertinent to the opening and continuation of the investigation; the testimony in secret hearings; the scope memorandum Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein issued on August 2, 2017, after failing to cite a crime when he appointed Mueller — let’s have all of it.”
What rules? Do anything you want but no democrat can even be looked at? That rule?
The point is the report (and all of the surrounding material such as FISA warrants) would reveal how corrupt Andy probably illegal the whole enterprise was.
Nothing but an attempt to try and embarrass the man. The President has also said that it should be made public, has he not?

So this clown is spinning the whole thing as if the President is afraid of it?
As I commented on another thread, as much as I like the President fighting back the way he does, w/ this, I wish he would humbly and quietly accept victory. Give them the chance to drive each other crazy. And when they’ve run out of things to say or fantasize about, then he should start carpet bombing them with the whole thing. Declassify it all, one by one, in chronological order, every Monday so it doesn’t get lost in the weekend BS.
Right, there is no legal basis to release grand jury material.
Throughtout this, both sides have remarked how impeccable, irreproachable, honest, and forthright Robert Mueller is, and has been throughout his career. Are they going to question the integrity of his investigation? Wouldn’t it be a hoot if the truth was in there after all. Hillary, Lynch, Obama, Jarrett, the whole cabal. Go ahead, show it to the public. Read it aloud on CNN. I want to hear you read the evidence against Hillary. I’ll laugh while you try to deny and obfuscate.
Well, if a lawyer said it, case closed.
Until the next lawyer says something, that is.
AG Barr should set up a press conference with a giant paper shredder. Hold up the report, state it is the only copy available, backups or other copies exist and toss it into the paper shredder with the statement “It’s over, people should move on with their lives”
And end the presser
Think of the center of the spider web that is the deep state. That center is the Meuller Report. All the threads emanating from the center of the web connect all the corruption, all the law breaking, all the lying, all the conspiring, sedition and treason in the deep state.
Many connections are “indirect”, so it will be the AG’s job, going forward, to establish those connections. Doing so requires a deep and thorough understanding of the Meuller Report. In effect, the report becomes a road map.
And we will see if the DOJ follows the guidelines that are set forth. They are the same guidelines that apply to every federal investigation.
In the next couple of days we will find out if some pigs are more equal than others.
kaytal is your typical LIB loser masquerading as an “attorney”. What an idiot. I bet his pet cats relieve themselves on his pillow.
He's right.
There are also no regulations requiring Barr to do anything other than produce his own report to Congress.
They're busy protecting the guilty.
I am going to crack up if after all this the only implications are Obama, Clinton, McCain, the FBI, Etc....
They are begging for it and deserve it.
And strike back!!
Hit em while we got the muscle!
Mueller's job was to STOP investigations into the RAT's HUGE CRIMINALITY HISTORY under Obama AND to bury evidence that would lead to massive scandals.
The deep state can't let the little people know the truth. You can bet that discussions are occurring to figure out how much information to release. As we found out in the JFK assassination, for example, it's better for the public to wonder and guess than to release the evidence that makes it perfectly clear what happened.
They can fool most of the people ALL OF THE TIME.
