Sources familiar with the probe believe there are no more indictments expected.
There's no shortage of speculation on the special counsel Robert Mueller’s report, much of it totally uninformed. But we don't need to speculate on the scope – the man who appointed Mueller has already given us a potential road map on what to expect from the special counsel. The bottom line: Do not expect a harsh condemnation of President Donald Trump or any of his associates if they have not been charged with crimes. The road map comes in the form a little-noticed 12-page letter written by Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein last June to Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley.
The letter was in response to Grassley's demands for more information on the special counsel investigation, offers a brief history of special counsel investigations and actually quotes former and future Attorney General William Barr who appointed three special counsels during his time as attorney general under President George H.W. Bush. In the letter, Rosenstein makes it clear he believes the Department of Justice will not – and cannot without violating long-standing Department of Justice policy – include disparaging or incriminating information about anybody who has not been charged with a crime. "Punishing wrongdoers through judicial proceedings is only one part of the Department's mission," Rosenstein wrote. "We also have a duty to prevent the disclosure of information that would unfairly tarnish people who are not charged with crimes." Sources familiar with the investigation believe there are no more indictments coming from the special counsel. If Mueller follows the guidance of the man who appointed him and supervised his investigation, he cannot publicly disparage those who have not been charged with a crime.

This was mentioned with regard to why there may not be a “Mueller Report”. Indictments speak for themselves, if you’re investigated but not indicted, why should anyone know what you were investigated for since the absence of an indictment says you did nothing wrong. Or at least nothing that could be proven in court, which in this case is the same thing.
[[offers potential road map to special counsel Robe]]
Phew— i was wondering where that robe went
Well that makes sense.
So this thing is over finally?
Except for the dems in congress asking for Trump’s tax returns dating back to 1820.
By the end, they’ll have him as capo di tutti capi in NYC
Also my sweetie pie Sessions had a ceremony at DOJ!
You live in an alternate world where English makes no sense.
I guess that I am one of those mean old Freepers, because he is anything but. Sorry, you are sadly mistaken. He's just CHA, period.
He was supposed to have left already in mid-March. It is past mid-March and he’s still part of the DOJ.
You’re out of your teensy mind and in need of help; if not confinement.
Now we know why Barr kept Rosenstein a little longer...Rosenstein was going to be the hero of the Left and Trump was going to fire him and Mueller any day...for the past 2 years. LOL
Don’t hate the playa, hate the game.
No, just speculating. But hoping for the best outcome for Trump and the worst possible blowback for the Dems. No report or at least no public report would drive them absolutely nuts.
No...not hate at all! Rather I laugh AT you and the other stupid freaks here, as the Brits did, a few 100 years ago, when they visited Bedlam, to look at and laugh at the lunatics held there, as though they were visiting a zoo.
Yeah, they gave him his "chair" since he never stood for anything.
Agree with what you’re saying, but in this case it all needs to be public. How this whole thing got started, FISC abuse, lying to the court, going after folks solely because they worked for Candidate/President Trump. All because she lost. Otherwise, they’ve gotten away with abusing their authority and proven that they’re scum of the earth. They’ve ruined peoples lives and distracted this country with their bullsh*t.
At least, that is what I’m hoping for.
A couple of good things came out of it though. Displaying just how utterly corrupt our government is and exposing the tiered justice system we have. And Michael Cohen is going to prison.
If he wins a second term, God willing, I don’t think he’s going to forget about all of these people. He may not have enough time to deal with them now, but he will if he stays in DC for a second term.
Yeah right. And this crew is noted for following law and tradition
What will the public think if they see photos of the special counsel in that robe?
